EASY TO DARKEN YOUR CRAY HAIR.
Try this! Brush Sage Tea and Sulphur Compound through your hair,
 taking one strand at a time.

When you darken your hair with Sage Tea and Sulphur, no one can tell, because it's done so naturally, so evenly. Preparing this mixture, though, at home, is mussy and troublesome. At little cost you can buy at any drug store the ready-touse preparation, inn store the ready-to-use preparation, inn gredients called "Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Compound" You just dampen a sponge or soft brush with it and draw this through your hair, taking one small strand at a time. By morning all gray hair disappears, and, after another application or two, your hair becomes beautifully darkened, glossy and luXuriant.
 Gray, faded hair, though no dis grace, is a sign of old age, and as we all desire a youthful and attractive appearance, get busy at once with Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Compound and look years younger. This ready to-use preparation is delightful toilet requisite and not medicine. It is not intended for the cure, mitigation or prevention of disease.-Adv.

bring this war to a successful conclu- sion.
 Get together and stay together. Let us build-let us reconstruct-let us see that our wages are not cut let us be ready for any emergency when time shall need it. Men occupy ing prominent positions in the labor world are going to be responsible.
 ''The laboring men must so organize and stick together that more of that cooperative wealth which we coIlec- lively create will come to us instead of to capital only. We must be con- structionists instead of destructionists and must pass through the reconstruc- ton period so that when normal con- ditions are again restored through out the land we may live with the measure of comfort and contentment that is our due"
 Patrick Scollins who ran for repre- sentative on the Labor ticket at the last election spoke at length upon the situation:
 "I have been fighting for the 8 hour day for 20 years. I believe the s hour day has come and is going to stay, I can see in this audience to- night that the woroktng men are in terested in that hour day issue. I believe that that is what has brought you here and I do not believe that the men of Bridgeport are going to stand for any reduction in wages. If there is any reduction, it will be in the hours of labor.
 'Tf it becomes necessary to work shorter hours that all may be employ ed 1t is their duty to do so. For nearly two years now you have been work ing 10 and 12 hour shifts. You have all been employed and working 22 hours a day. I do. not believe that 1t has done any of you any good. Those men who have been work ing overtime and extra time are the ones who take medicine and stimu- lants to nourfsh them and to keep them going. Do you believe, men, that this is fair to yourselves? That you should slave those hours? They tell you of the money you earned where is this money? I do not see any of you men are going out to buy

Philip Desiletts, assistant business agent was appointed chairman, and asked for the sentiments of the men regarding the A hour week, which they had met to discuss. Several workers discussed the subject at length and the men who refuse to keep to the agreement not to work overtime, thereby taking several hours away from their fellow workers were roundly scored. All agreed that the present situation was serious, and hardship would be preve1.rS only by maintaining the organization at its full strength. ..
 Several members with Bolsheviki tendencies attempted to air their views, but were promptly sQuelched by the chairman.
 David Clydesdale appealed to the workerssto maintain the present stan dard of wages, not to underbid thelr fellow workers if they found them selves out of work,4but to demand the same as they had been receiving in the past. "The competition of the workers must be, abolished" said MT. Clydesdale eff in the city of Bridge port there are ten thousand men working 10 hours day and ten 'thou- sand men out of work, organized la bor ought to see to 1t that the 10,- 900 unemployed and the 10000 em- pIoyed work five hours a day, that each may have an equal chance to live.'
 Victor Gauthier, former business agent of the Machfnists' Union at To- ledo, Ohio, but now a member of the executive board of the InteTnationa Association was the principle speak CT of the evening. MT. Gauthier said in part:
 There are statements that have been made tonight that tend to rend asunder all unity. We are talking here tonight about conserving the hour day. Forty years we have beer struggling for this 8 hour day, but the reconstruction periods will pre- sent problems greater than before we entered the war.
 we can raise billions and billions of dollars to take care of this crisis as well as we have raised billions tc
