COMB SAGE TEA IN
 LIFELESS 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 a brew of Sage Tea and Sulphur. Whenever her hair fell out or took on that duh, faded or streaked appear ance, this simple mixture was applied with wonderful effect. By asking at any drug store for ''Wyetn's Sage and Sulphur Compousd." 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 well-known downtown druggist says everybody uses Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur, because it darkens so nat urally and evenly that nobody can tell it has been applied-its so easy to use, too. You simply dampen a comb or soft brush and draw it through your hair, taking one strand at a 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- da pt Adv.

WHY OVERLAND IS
 CALLED THRIFT JAR

According 10 II. H. Hotchkiss of the Overland Arizona company anything which tends to save time promotes hrift. The saving of time means the conservation of energy, of labor. of money of food supplies in fact every thing of value. Never has anything been invented which directly saves so much time as the modern automobile.
 By it's use the manufacturer can transport his raw material and his finished product in half the time as tt half the expense as by team. The travelling man or agent can call upon vice the number of patrons in a given length of time, your grocer can and loes deliver his orders in half the time necessary before the advent of the automobile, the physician calls upon vice the number of patients-the, 'armer and rancher can do many, many times the same amount of work working day as he could in the lays that are gone. No car has met the demands of these people so sat 'sfactorily and economically as the Dverland-day after day. year in and put hundreds of thousands of Over land cars are not only doing their bit : but in large measure are contribut- ing to the efficiency of the present lay business world. In every respect he Overland is justly entitled to be called The Thrift Car"

QUANTITY STRONG
 ARM OF. OVERLAND

Quantity production says H. H. Hotchkiss of the Overland Arizona company, lis the reason for the re- markable value of the Willys-Ove land company line The Willys- Over land company is the only manufactur- CT in the world putting out a complete line of motor cars. The overhead ex- pense is thereby so distributed that each individual car bears but very small amount
 This is equally true in the higher priced cars as well as in the lower priced ones. No manufacturer other than the Willys- Overland has ever equaled the value in the Willys- Knight cars at the price.
 The same can be said of the Over land line. There is no car made to sell in Phoenix at $975.O0 that anywhere equals the value of the Overland 90. A shoe factory can turn out better shoes for less money than the cobbler can make. A large manufacturing company such as the Willys- Overland has the same advantage over the smaller manufacturer Quantity buy ing, quantity production and quantity sales have made it impossible for Overland value to be euualed

RECORDS NEEDED FUR
 SOLDIERS V|CTROLAS

Appeals from France and from the raining camps are received daily, says MT. Fordan, manager of the Victrola department of the Redewil Music company for used talking machine records
 A recent letter from France stated that records cannot be purchased there and that the records that they have been played so much that one dares not play them anymore for fear of starting a riot.
 lt is not a question of new records. though undoubtedly new records would be received with d proportionately greater welcome, but almost any Vic trola owner will have a few records which can be spared from his collec- ton.
 In the hospitals, anything in the line of music is balm to the ears of the wounded and certainly it would be a calamity if they were deprived of the soace.
 ' MT. Fordan states that records will be received at the Redewill Music company for the soldier boys both those that are in the United States and those abroad.

course.
1t has not only. Become 3 grea
and terrifying menace u tAC
public health, but unless checked
it is apt to seriously affect the
progress of war work in all its
various departments. Already
the Shipping Board has announc-
ed that ten per cent of its work
ers had been affected.
The disease has made it's great
est progress in the east where it
has claimed it's victims by the
thousands. Reports from other
sections, however, are equally
alarming; and both civil and
military authorities have warned
the public to take every precau-
ton to prevent its further spread.
In many cities schools, churches
and theatres have been closed
and public gatherings of all kinds
forbidden.
Medical authorities agree that
people who are weak and run
down are the earliest victims of
the influenza epidemic. If you
find yourself tired, weak and los
ing flesh, or if you are in a gen
orally rundown condition, or if
you catch cold easily this warning
should be needed promptly. You
are really in great danger, be-
cause the germ of this disease is
very catching and you are apt to |
fall an easy victim if you come |
in contact with the germs. Peo-
pie who are well and strong are
not likely to contract the disease
because they are able to throw it
off. The common sense way to |
keep from taking it is to fortify
the system against attack by
building up the constitution.
In other words to use the old
adage, IAN ounce of prevention
is worth pound of cure" And
II you are in a subnormal condi-
ton the proper thing to do is to
begin Immediately to build up
your powers of resistance. To
accomplish this, nothing on earth
will strengthen you and build
you up like Tanlac, the powerful
reconstructive tonic, which con-
tains the very elements needed
by the system to give you fight
ing strength and ward off the in
fluenza germ.
First of all Tanlac begins its
action by creating good healthy
appetite for wholesome, nourish-
ing food, and assists every organ
OF the body to perform its natur-
al functions, thus helping toI
build up health and strength in
the natural way.
Tanlac is also the ideal streng,
thening tonic for persons who
are suffering from the after eff
fects of influenza, grippe or
bronchial troubles and hundreds !
Of thousands are using it dailyl
with the most gratifying results.
In connection with the TanIac
treatment, it is necessary to keep :
the bowels open by taking Tanlac !
Laxative Tablets, samples of !
which are included with every ;
bottle of Tanlac. 1t is also i'm t
oortant that the every day rules ?

JOHN H. ALLISON.
For Twenty Years Deputy Sheriff OF
Hennepin County.
ALLISON PRAISES LANGUM.

To the Public:
Not having the time to see many of
my friends personally, owing to the
fact that my time is taken up in my
regular duties at the office, / avail
myself of this means of communicate
ing with you concerning matter OF
vital Importance to me, namely, the I
reelection Of Mr.. Langum.
l think you will agree with me that
Sheriff Langum's past record speaks
for itself. He has in the past been con-
fronted with many prepieAlae piou-
lems, but has, by the exercise - r"od
judgment, succeeded in doing his duty
without force and with the least pos
sible interference to all concerned.
Sheriff Langum has, during all Of
these trying times, had but one object
in view, that of maintaining peace
and protection of property, leaving the
settlement Of disputes to the parties
directly involved.
Sheriff Langum has permitted no
discrimination on account of race in
the County Jail, where all prisoners
are treated equally.
In view of this, and the fact that
have for some years been one of Mr..
Langum's co-workers, knowing him as
do, have no hesitancy in saying to
you that during all this time he has
shown himself Just and square in his
official duties, always willing to aid
'and assist where possible; and if ever
an official was worthy of public con-
fidence it is Sheriff Langum, who has
the confidence of, and is entitled to,
unstinted support by the citizens. Of
this community.
Therefore ask your active support
in his behalf from now until election,
assuring you that such action would
not alone be highly appreciated by
myself, but in my opinion you would
be doing a wise act for the community
as a whole.
.. Sincerely yours,
JOHN H. ALLISON.

Walter H. Newton for Congress.

Voters of the Fifth Congressional dis
trict owe it to themselves, to Minneapolis,
to all men in the nations service and to the
flag to repeat and make intensive the re-
buke administered at the primary election
to the man who has misrepresented the dis
trict for nearly two years. The logical,
effective, memorable way to do this is to
elect Walter H. Newton by the largest
plurality ever given candidate in the dis
trict. We believe the voters purpose doing
that very thing, but it cannot be done un-
less each loyal citizen makes it his special,
paramount days duty to cast ballot next
Tuesday. III
Voters of the Fifth district are too intel
ligent and too discriminating in their pa
triotic sense to be hoodwinked by special
partisan pleadings at this time. The very
great majority of them, we are sure, will
put principle above party, loyalty above
mere personalities, ability above available
ity in the making of their decision at the
polls.
The mere fact that Mr.. Newton's op-
ponent has behind him the acknowledged
support Of the Van Lear Socialists and
their kindred elements should be enough to
bring about the overwhelming election Of
Mr.. Newton. Every vote for him will be
vote in rebuke of the party to which Mayor
Van Lear belongs-the party that officially,
In its platform, declares this "the most un-
justifable war of all modern history" and
"a crime against the people of the United
States"
There are other .weighty reasons, how
ever, why Mr.. Newton should be sent to
Congress at this time. Leaving aside the
question Of character, which in the case of
Mr.. Newton is irreproachable, he is well
equipped by study, experience, temperament
and mental discipline to become either
wartime or peace-time national lawmaker.
He believes this is pre-eminently day for
the exaltation of craftsmanship and for an
avoidance of demagoguery. His forward
looking is sanely directed because his SYM
pathies are broad, because he understands
fundamental aspirations and because he
glimpses the future in the light of the mis-
takes as we'll as the wisdom of the past.
He is pledged to do his best in support Of
the nations righteous war aims without
partisan bias and to do what lies in his
power to make ours truer and better
democracy. Nor is it unimportant, in view
of these qualifications, that he is Mime
apolis product with longtime heart inter-
est in the physical, moral and social welfare
of the community.
