NEW GUIDE SIGNS TO BE ERECTED ON
 ROADS ID PHOENIX

For the accommodation of tourists and motorists generally, the chamber of commerce is making arrangements 10 have all of the roads leading to the city plaearded with signs. When this task shall have been completed there will be no highway with d radius of many miles of Phoenix on which road signs are not in evidence.
 While this feature of overland travel has received some attention in the past from automobile clubs and similar organizations, it has never been done with the proper cooperation and thoroughness. At the present time a majority of the highways in the rural districts are poorly signed and in q great many instances one may travel for miles without encountering a guide post This has been the subject of much unfavorable comment from tour ists
 A special committee has been ap- pointed for the purpose of selecting q sign that will combine utility with an artistic effect. This committee is to meet at the chamber of commerce Monday moraing at II o'clock to de- eide upon this question and also to outline suggestions relative to the e. ection of the road markers. No effort will be spared that will tend to insure 2 permanent and convenient system Of .u,i:cators.

THREE BOWERS BROS.

That the Bowers family seems es- pecially qualified to hold office, and the particular office of undersheriff, is evidenced by the fact that at the present time three members of the family in as many counties are serv- ing in that capacity.
 Charles Bowers yesterday entered his duties as undersheriff of Maricopa county under Sheriff John G. Mont gomery. His brother, Edward r. Bow CTS, is undersheriff of Yavapai county, and brother in-law, George Hen shaw, holds the same position in Co., chise county.

Since Monday 184 Cases

More than 40 new cases of this dis ease are breaking out each day. For the 4S-hour period covering New Years and Thursday, S3 new cases were reported. Since Monday, there has been an increase in the total cases in the city of 1S4. and this number is being swelled rapidly. There are now 2S6 influenza cases under treatment
 The situation is rendered more seri- ous still by the small number of re leases being effected For two days but II patients were discharged as cured, both in the hospitals and residential districts, and two deaths were re- corded.
 That the condition is widespread is evidenced by the fact that the rural sections appear to be suffering in al most the same degree as the commun- ity. While definite figures cannot be secured. it is said the residents of the remoter districts are being stricken in large numbers.

Officials Are Divided

School authorities appear divided to certain extent over the advisability of closing the schools. Some are of the opinion that since the congregating of the pupils has apparently been at tended with no evil results, no further precious time should be lost. Others are inclined to the theory that the measure is necessary as a precaution
 The high school presents different case. Speaking for the board of trus- tees. A. A. Betts, president of the board of trustees of the high school, outlined the situation in that unit:
 If the matter is left to our discre- tion. we probably will keep the high school open,' he announced last even> ing. T should dislike very much to see it closed. All of our buildings, which are in one group, are very well ventilated, and there is no congestion in any of the rooms. By the exercise of the necessary precautions, I am sure none of the students would be unnec- essarily exposed to danger

TURN HAIR DARK
WITH SAGE TEA
If Mixed with Sulphur It
Darkens so Naturally
Nobody can Tell.

The old-time mixture of Sage Tea
and Sulphur for darkening gray,
streaked and faded hair is grand
mothers recipe, and folks are again
using it to keep their hair good,
even color, which is quite sensible, as
we are living in an age when a youth
full appearance is of the greatest ad-
vantage.
Nowadays, though, we don't have
the troublesome task of gathering the
sage and the mussy mixing at home.
All drug stores sell the ready-to-use
product, improved by the addition of
other ingredients, called "Wyeth's Sage
and Sulphur Compound" 1t is very
popular because nobody can discover
1t has been applied. Simply moisten
your comb or a soft brush with it and
draw this through your hair, taking
one small strand at a time; by morning
the gray hair disappears, but what de-
lights the ladies with Wyeth's Sage
and Sulphur Compound, is that, be-
sldei beautifully darRening the hair
after few applications, it also pro-
duces that soft lustre and appearance
OF abundance which is so attractive.
This ready-to-use prepara ton is a de-
l1ghtful toilet requisite for those who
desire a more youthful appearance. 1t
is not intended for the cure, mitiga-
ton or prevention of disease.

BAPTIST CONVENTION SENDS
MANY DELAGTES TO ATLANTA

Atlanta, Ga. May 15.-The South
ern Baptist Convention which is in
session in Atlanta, has brought ap-
ploximately 2,400 actual delegates
