TT would be interesting to know
who first coined the expression
- "to get married" Ninety-nine
chances out Of a hundred 1t origi-
mated with q woman. For words
are emotional things. They have
q way Of photographing hidden
thoughts and feelings Of which the
owner is unconscious or which he
fondly believes locked away safely
in the deepest recesses Of his heart.
ITO get" is one Of our most &C
tive expressions. It means to set
your eye on a certain mark, to cen
ter your heart on a certain object
and then go after 1t with all your
might and take possession Of 1t.
How does it come then that wo-
man who has always wished to

marriage permits herself to be
spoken of as getting married?"
Doesn't she know that In so doing
she is stepping out Of the demure
picture she has always painted?
Now what is there so attractive
about marriage to a woman that
she should leave no stone unturned
to attain it? Why should she be
so anxious to single one man out

and Siberia. With that compact,
efficient and daring navy Of hers
she helped to keep the Austrian
fleet bottled up in Pola, Trieste and
Fiume, and prevented what might
have been an ugly situation In the
Mediterranean.
She has suffered thus far the
loss Of a million Of her electives;
100000 slain in battle. 100000 per-
manently disabled.
She created, organized and
operated great munition works
In spite Of the coal shortage.
She met the food shortage
largely by volunteer effort and by
the wonderful work Of her great
cooperative societies.
She created an air service the
admiration Of all experts.
She organized and equipped q
complete sanitary service.
She met the shortage Of tonnage
by organizing In one year fourteen
new shipping companies with q
capital OF 22e,000.0 600 lire. by IN
creasing in the sum Of 2e4, 000, 900
lire the capital Of existing ship
companies, and by organizing and
equipping nine new shipbuilding
plants with a capital Of 55,O00,000

yards enlarged their facilities and
increased their capital-one of
them by 10000, 900 lire.

TO DARKEN HAIR
APPLY SAGE TEA
Look Young! Bring Back It's
Natural Color, Gloss and
Athactiveness.

Common garden sage brewed into a
heavy tea with sulphur added. will
turn gray, streaked and faded hair
beautifully dark and luxuriant. Just
few applications will prove a revela-
ton If your hair Is fading. streaked or
gray. Mixing the Sage Tea and Sui
phur recipe at home, though, Is trou-
blesome. An easier way Is to get a
bottle Of Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur
Compound at any drug store all ready
for use. This Is the old-time recipe
Improved by the addition Of other in
gradients.
While wispy, gray, faded hair is not
sinful, we all desire to retain our
youthful appearance and attractive
ness. By darkening your hair with
Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Compound,
no one can tell, because It does It so
naturally, 50 evenly. You Just dampen
q sponge or soft brush with It and
draw this through your hair, taking
one small strand at time; by morning
all gray hairs have disappeared, and.
after another application or two, your
hair becomes beautifully dark, glossy,
soft and luxuriant
This preparation Is q delightful toilet
requisite and is not intended for the
cure, mitigation or prevention Of dis

son is that the human system does not
rid itself each day Of all the waste
which 1t accumulates under our pres

of food and drink taken into the system
nearly an ounce Of waste material
must be carried out, else It ferments
and forms ptomaine-like poisons which
are absorbed into the blood.
