NOBODY LOVES GARFIELD
Manufacturers and EmpIoyes GrumbIe,
 But What's the Use?

Comment on Dr. Garfeld's five days order for paralysis of business was inducing any more complimentary re- marks here Friday than was the case on Thursday. As a matter of fact the caustic criticism grew in volume until there seemed to be a steady cho- rus of it.
 Hundreds of mill workers who have been temporarily thrown out of en- ployment were particularly bitter and they pointed out more than a score of different reasons why they felt the &C., ton taken was unjust to them.
 There isn't any indication that man. ufacturers here are any more favora- ble to following Dr. Garfeld's sugges- ton relative to paying employees for time lost than there is in hundreds of other towns and cities n the coun- try, and the employees realize that they are going to lose lot of prospective earnings of which they have real need.
 Putnam's manufacturing industries were practically stilled Friday as the result of the order, though some con- cerns that have water power avail able were running some machinery and giving work to some employees.

When you darken your hair with
sage Tea and Sulphur, no one can

it and draw this through your hair,
taking one small strand at time.
by morning all gray hair disappears,
and, after another application or two,
your hair becomes beautifully dark
ened, glossy and luxuriant.
Gray, faded hair, though no dis
grace, is sign of old age, and as we
all desire youthful and attractive

"WhO VIII Win
This Battle?"

Your kidneys are the filters of the
