FRIDAY. APRIL IS, 1919.
A PROGRESSIVE CHURCH MOVE.

The country will watch with sympa-
thetic interest the effort of the Protes-
tant Episcopal church to develop some
substitute for the American saloon. An
nouncement is made from New York
that the church proposes to raise a fund
of $20.00O,000 within the next three
wears, a large part of which will be
used at home in the effort to establish
such substitute. The raising of such
a large sum of money is an ambitious
project but if it promises a practical
solution of this social problem prob
ably considerable money outside of the
church membership will be contributed
because the question is broader than
any denomination.
The statement issued by a commit
tee asks the following important ques
tions:
% Has the church no message or act
of sympathy and helpfulness for the
millions in our land who after July l
will be deprived of the only social cen
ter provided for them? The saloon has
served a community need. Cannot the
church provide better2 You cannot
take something away from man with
out giving him something in return.
In this act the Episcopal church has
contributed the most advanced thought
and policy of the country on the ma
tional prohibition movement All othel
denominations have confined their eff
forts to the securing of a prohibitiv'
act, the taking away from or denial Il
large class of citizens the only socia
| life and amusement they know TIL
| social habits of man cannot be sup
| pressed but they may be improved AM
satisfactory substitute for the salool
/ would be strong influence in such a
Il improvement.
We are glad to see such a broad an
4 liberal policy adopted by a church an
1 wish for the movement the creates
L degree of success.

TO DARKEN HAIR
= APPLY SAGE TEA
A few applications of Sage Tea and
Sulphur brings back its vigor,
color, gloss and youthfulness.5

Common garden sage brewed into a
heavy tea with sulphur added, will turn
gray, streaked and faded hair beauti-
fully dark and luxuriant Just few
applications will prove revelation if
your hair is fading, streaked or gray.
Mixing the Sage Tea and Sulphur recipe
at home, though, is troublesome. An
easier way is to get 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 ingredients.
While wispy, gray, faded hair is not
sinful, we all desire to retain our youth
full appearance and attractiveness. BY
darkening your hair with Wyeth.' S Sage
and Sulphur Compound, no one can tell,
because it does it SO naturally, so even-
ly. You just dampen a sponge or soft
brush with it and draw this through youl
hair talzingzea1e; small strands at a time
dark. glossy, soft and luxlrant.-

fisherman who notes carefully each
morning the actions of pair of gold
fish which it is his duty to feed. If
these fish are active and show signs of
keen appetite he Immediately pre-
pares for an excursion to some near
by stream, knowing by experience, he
asserts, that at such times the trout will
be "on the feed" The Meddler does
mt vouch for the reliability of this rule
for knowing when to go fishing but

prietor to experiment with.
