POSTMASTER OF
 CITY GIVES OUT
 LOCAL SCHEDULE

In order to facilitate the handling of mails in and out of this city, Post master Nicholson, in a recent letter, re- qusted Harry Welch of the local cham Der of commerce to call the attention of the business men of Phoenix to some important facts concerning the gathering of outgoing mail and the distribution of incoming mail. MT. Michelson's letter reads: T am enclosing a few schedules of closing time for mails at the postoffice. The time for collection is given on each street letter box. The first afternoon collection from boxes in the business section is due at the office in time for the 4:40 closing; the second in time for the 5:30 closing; the third in time for the 6:15. It is necessary that we l give the transfer company twenty min- utes to transfer the mail from the of 1 flee to the train and it is necessary that we have thirty minutes to pick up, work and tie out each dispatch. We do not always require this thirty minutes, | but we guarantee to make these con- | nections per schedule. As a rule we are able to work little longer and still make dispatch on time. It seems to be the policy of many business houses 1 to mail all their mail on the last hour in the day, when they could just as well mail part of it earlier in the day. It would result in a saving to the de- partment and make possible better service for the patrons if the mail were delivered to the postoffice earlier in the | day. It is unjust to the department to | expect it to handle in about two hours the bulk of mail that the entire city has accumulated in a whole day. We have our work systematized to the point where we can handle the mail as per schedule, but if more of the mail were received earlier in the day, it would result in saving of money to the department.
 Tt is true that we are feeling the loss of a considerable number of men having lost sixteen since last July These vacancies have been filled largely by men from the east who are unfamiliar with the city and it's peo- pie, thus causing delays or mishan- ding of the mail of some prominent people, which, of course, is very en- barrassing to us.
 May I also request the cooperation of each patron in the matter of having handy receptacle for mail to aSoil taking up the carriers time. A delay of one-half minute at each stop for g carrier means the loss of three hours each day to him. It is necessary fol us to economiZe in every way in order to maintain the service you are entitled to and we could appreciate any sug- gestion for improvement you may have to offer.'
 Following is the present mail sched ule:

COMB SAGE TEA IN
 LlFELESS GRAY HAIR
Look young! Common garden Sage and Sulphur darken so naturally
 nobody can tell

Grandmother kept her hair beauti- fully darkened, glossy and abundant with brew of Sage Tea and Sulphur. Whenever her hair fell out or took on that dull, faded or streaked appear ance, this simple mixture was applied with wonderful effect. By asking at any drug store for "Wyetns Sage and Sulphur Compound" you will get a large bottle of this old time recipe, ready to use, for about 50 cents. This simple mixture can be depended upon to restore natural color and beauty to the hair and is splendid for dandruff, dry, itchy scalp and falling hair
 A wellknown downtown druggist says everybody uses Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur, because it darkens so nat urally and evenly that nobody car tell it has been applied-it's so easy to use. too. You simply dampen a comb or soft brush and draw it through your hair, taking one strand at time. By morning the gray hair disappears; after another application or two, it is restored to it's natural color and looks glossy soft and abun- dant-Adv.
