The use of Sage and Sulphur for
restoring faded, gray hair to it's nat
ural color dates back to grandmoth-
er's time. She used it to keep her
hair beautifully dark. glossy and at
tractive. Whenever her hair took on
that dull, faded or streaked appear
ance, this simple mixture was applied
with wonderful effect.
But brewing at home is mussy and
out-of- date. Nowadays, by asking at
any drug store for bottle of IVY

you will get this famous old prepar-
alton. improved by the addition of
other ingredients, which can be de-
pended upon to restore natural color
and beauty to the hair.
A Well-known downtown druggist
says it darkens the hair so naturally
and evenly that nobody can tell it has
been applied. You simply dampen a
sponge or soft brush with it and draw
this through your hair, taking one
strand at a time. By morning the
gray hair disappears, and after an
other applica ton or two, it becomes
beautifully dark and glossy.

for those who desire a more youthful
appearance. It is not intended for

DEMAND $25, 900 BOND
Prosecution Willing To Take No

Springfield, Mo, Oct 19.-If Claude
Piersol, convicted of the kidnapping of
Baby Lloyd Keet, is denied a new trial
when motion by his attorneys is
passed upon by Judge C. H. Skinner
at Marshfeld on November 3, the
state will demand that his bond pend
ing his appeal to the Missouri su-
preme court be fixed at $4,000.
Prosecuting Attorney O'Day said to-
day that he would oppose the fixing
of bail for any less amount. 1t is
probable that Piersol could not fur

he would he removed to the state

Production Greater Than Ever
Need Efficient Distribution.

washington, Oct. 19.-Patriotic sac
rifices by the public with regard to
coal will be necessary this winter, it
was stated today at the fuel admins
tration. The public was asked not to
grow hysterical about the admittedly
serious coal shortage in many cities.
Fuel will be supplied every domestic
and war emergency need, it was stated.
Meantime a hand to mouth pol
icy was advised for consumers until
suspension of Great Lakes navigation
early in December makes availab BILE
enormous quantities of coal diverted
from the northwest route.
When appeals to state fuel admins
traitors and local dealers absolutely
fail to provide necessary coal, con-
sumers are urged to wire the federal
fuel administration here. 1t would not
surprise officials if public authorities
where there is an acute shortage draw
upon the nearest big coal piles to pre-
vent women and children freezing in
their homes.
Cut Off Luxury Industries.
Intimation that luxury industries
would be cut off from coal first and
that hoarders would be forced to dis
gorge were again given at the fuel ad-
ministration.
The war was represented as having
added adopted children" to a family
already in difficulty to supply its
DrOOd with warm clothing.
Then somebody simply has to stay
in bed to keep warm said D. H.

THE wars demands for coal are
illustrated in the case of one munition
plant which has increased it's output

four hours a day. said Minis I'VE
also are treating our allies as we treat
ourselves. The country is producing
more coal than last year and the only
real problem is careful handling of
what we have got. Hysteria on the
public's part will only aggravate the
situation.
Wage Decision November 1.
THE people may have to make
sacrifices with regard to coal as well
as food and we expect them to en-
dure it like good soldiers. But we
are doing everything the government
possibly can do to bring relief to

Confidence was expressed that min

work by Monday. Union officials here

The refiners' price should enable
