Never was there a dance held for a more worthy cause than the open air carnival and dance last night on Adams street. between Central and Forest avenues.
 Scores tripped the popular dances on the pavement to music furnished by the band of the Indian school, while hundreds looked on. Until late hour there was a crush of people in that vicinity.
 A stirring appeal. one that reached not only the depths of the heart, but of the pocketbook as well. was that made by I. NJ. Goldman, noted San Francisco attorney. last nioht before the throng that had gathered at the open air dance, held in connection with a program arranged by the committee in charge of the United Drive for Re lief in the Near East.
 Step by step the speaker traced the progress of that most oppressed of races. the Armenians, pictured how for centuries they had been down. trodden by the Turks, only to be made victims of more wholesale atrocities than ever under the autOcratic sway of William II.
 For nearly an hour Alr. Goldman held the rapt attention of the audience. Fol lowing the address. State Chairman David Godburg stepped to the front of the stage to announce that those who cared to make donations could do so by application to members of the committee stationed in cars. Many re- sponded with substantial offerings.

TOO LATE TO CLASSIFY
+ HAIR |S TURNING
 GRAY, USE SAGE TEA
Here's Grandmother's Recipe to Darken and Beautify
 Faded Hair

That beautiful, even shade of dark, glossy hair can only be had by brewing a mixture of Sage Tea and Sulphur. Your hair is your charm. It makes or mars the face. When it fades, turns gray or streaked, just an application or two of Sage and Sulphur enhances its appearance a hundredfold.
 Don't bother to prepare the mix ture; you can get this famous old recipe improved by the addition of other ingredients at a small cost. all ready for use. It is called Wyeths Sage and Sulphur Com pound. This can always be de- pended upon to bring back the nat ural color and lustre of your hair.
 Everybody uses "Wyeth's" Sage and Sulphur Compound now be- cause it darkens so naturally and evenly that nobody can tell it has been applied. You simply dampen a sponge or soft brush with it and draw this through the hair. taking one small strand at a time: by morning the gray hair has disap- peared. and after another applica- tion it becomes beautifully dark and appears glossy and lustrous.

He then offered to pay commission
of 33 1-3 per cent. under which agree

next 30 days, after which 1t will be
gradually raised to SO. These addl-
tional raises are the best methods

Shares Are VaIueIess.
The stock had no value; there was
nothing behind it. The price was an
arbitrary figure fixed by the company.
The proposed raises would have been
arbitrary. If buyer had tried to sell
the company would not have bought
the stuff back at any price. The COM

broker to go shares with ii in kidding
