LADIES. LOOK YOUNG. DARKEN CRAY HAIR Use the Old time Sage Tea and Sulphur and Nobody
 Will Know

Gray hair, however handsome de- notes advancing age. We all know the advantages of a youthful ap- pearance. Your hair is your charm. It makes or mars the face. When it fades, turns gray and looks streaked, just few applications of Sage Tea and Sulphur enhances it's appearance a hundredfold.
 Don't stay grayl Look young! Either prepare the recipe at home or get from any drug store a bottle of "Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Compound" which is merely the old-time recipe improved by the ad- dition of other ingredients. Thous- ands of folks recommend this ready to-use preparation, because it dark ems the hair beautifully, besides. no one can possibly tell. as it darkens so naturally and evenly. You moist en a sponge or soft brush with it, drawing this through the hair, talk ing one small strand at a time. By morning the gray hair disappears; after another application or two, its natural color is restored and it be- comes thick, glossy and lustrous, and you appear years younger.

N VTERESTING |S |STORY IF CORD
 1 TIRE EVOLUTION

Now that pneumatic cord tires have made such big place for themselves fn the automobile world and have come to be regarded as the best type of tire sD far developed for automobile use, much interest centers in the story of lle development of this type from its adoption to vehicular use to it's pres ant advanced state.
 z Cord tires have only assumed prom thence since 1914, although at that Sme they were not new, having been made in this country as early as 1904 Ry the Goodyear Tire and Rubber company.
 { They are so called to distinguish them from the fabric type of tire Which up to that time had been used universally on automobiles. In a fab Isc the body of the tire is built up of Ross woven fabric, or duck" each successive layer of fabric being placed at an angle of 45 degrees, in it's re- Mtion to the layer of fabric under it. This construction makes for extreme durability, but in comparison with 8 eprd tire is lacking somewhat in re- Aliency, or liveliness.
 : Cord tires are not made of cross woven fabric. They are built of strong dprds, similar to fishing line, laid Bde by side, without any cross weave. The several layers of cords are built pp on the bias to furnish maximum @rength. This construction permits easy fleXing, or bending of the tire as it follows the surface of the street, gpes far toward eliminating friction, and greatly reduces power consump- lon.
 rebo fire+ cord +frae xx-ara iptapdad fbr use on electric vehicles and for nearly ten years were confined to this bhere. Their advantages in this ser 4ce during this period became so ap- I}arent that tire engineers sensed their ;eiaptibility to gasoline-propelled cars, and after much experimenting and re- ffning evolved @ cord tire suitable for use on these cars.
 At first they were used on large pas anger cars and were very costly, Which caused them to be regarded as e luxury by automobile owners. But Tith increased use new advantages appeared and tire engineers soon were HlalSing cord tires for the medium lkRteed cars, and now for all classes of earsv~no matter what the size of the wheels.
 In cost per tire they exceed other types somewhat, as the construction is more expensive, but the extra mileage reduces the cost per mile and offsets the higher cost. If cord tires did noth- ing more than permit greater mileage than the fabric type, their existence would be amply justified.
 But as appealing a feature as the increased mileage is the liveliness of tbG---tire-its ability to absorb the siS6e5ss and prevent them from the inequalities of the road and furnish the easy riding qualities for which COTE tires have become noted.
 5lshe cry of the public is for better tiSa5-less tires-fewer tire changes ldnger tire life-lower cost per mile 1Esfe fabric tire made the automobile p6sk ibie, but for many years pneumatic tires came in for their share of criti-
