DENTAL LICENSES
ARE SOLD FOR 5000
FORMER SECRETARY OF STATE
DENTAL BOARD ARRESTED
AT BOISE YESTERDAY

BOISE.-W. A. Myers, former
secretary of the state dental board,
was arrested yesterday on a charge
of bribery. When taken into custody
tby Sheriff Emmitt Fost and Albert
White of the state constabulary,
Myers had a ticket to Chicago in his
pocket. His bond was placed at $500,
which he furnished. 1t is alleged in
the complaint, which was filed in
Justice George H. Rust's court by
Robert 0. Pones, commissioner of law
enforcement, that Myers agreed to
give his support to IN application for
a license to practice dentistry in Ida
no on payment to him of 5000 by the
applicant. The alleged crime took
place last January. 1t is reported
at the state house that other charges
may be filed against Myers, and that
other arrests may follow. The name
of the applicant from whom, as al
legged, he demanded the 5000 bride,
was not mentioned in the complaint.
The investigation of the law en-
forcement department, begun soon
after Commissioner Jones was
named, disclosed that Idaho licenses
were being sold by scalpers in other
states. 1t is said that they were
being marketed in Portland for
about 5000 each. 1t was this stu
alton that caused the secret probe of
Myers acts. Myers has been a prac-
tlcing dentist in Boise for about 10
years. He was appointed May 10,
1917, by former Governor Moses
Alexander, and served until the
duties of his office were assumed by
the law enforcement department

LADIES! DARKEN
YOUR GRAY HAIR
Look years younger! Use Grand
mothers recipe of Sage Tea and
Sulphur and nobody will know.

The use of Sage and Sulphur for re-
storing faded, gray hair to its natural
color dates back to grandmother's
time. She used it to keep her hair
beautifully dark, glossy and attrac-
tive. Whenever her hair took on that
dull, faded or streaked appearance,
this simple mixture was APPLIED with
wonderful effect.
But brewing at home is mussy and
out-of-date. Nowadays, by asking at
any drug store for a bottle of
"Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Com
pound" you will get this famous old
preparation, improved by the addition
OF other ingredients, which can be de-
pended upon to restore natural color
and beauty to the hair.
A well-known downtown druggist
says it darkens the hair 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 your hair, taking one
strand at a time. By morning the
gray hair has disappeared, and after
another application or two, it becomes
beautifully dark and glossy.
Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Com
pound is a delightful toilet requisite
for those who desire a more youthful
appearance. 1t is not intended for
the cure, mitigation or prevention of
disease.

Vermont will generally be pleased
with the hearty commentator of
three well known Burlington business
men of the roads in Vermont. While
improvements are desirable and neces-
sary in many sections it remains n
fact that great injustice has been done
the state in the thoughtless condemn
alton of all its roads. The road agi-
tators apparently have been following
the line of least resistance and simply
grumbled. They have ignored condi
tons and INDUCED in unreasonable
criticism.
These Burlington men did not ig

stated the most serious ones were In

proaches to the larger towns of the
state Il will generally be admitted
thew are correct In this statement
Possibly an improper system of CON
struction Is responsible for this con-
dition. Too many villages and cities
have attempted to build permanent
roads with very perishable material
and they now have large debts and the
poorest roads. But Il should be pos
sible for these larger places to con-
struct good and durable roads. 1t is

Fascination Of a Helmet.

The Hun helmet possesses a strong
fascination for the American soldier.
Apparently he is not able to resist the
temptation to capture one whenever
or wherever he sees II. A news story
from the Rhine country tells us that
German policemen of the towns oc-
cupled by the American troops have
given up wearing helmets. Many OF
the policemen gave them up because
they had none to wear. Others dis
continued their use because the Amer.
lean officers made the discontinuance
n request. The American soldiers, II
is explained, couldn't resist the i'm.
pulse to capture them. The German
policemen we're rushed all along the
Rhine and deity unbonneted. 1t all
shows that the primitive instinct that
urges a victor to take from the con.
quered some symbol OF his submission
cont nues strong In the warrior breast.
