SETS TRACK RECORD.
LucuIlite, Owned By Major Belmont 
 Turns Trick on Jamaica Course

New York, May 20-Lucullite. the four year old son of Trap Rock Whlch as q two year old was the pride or Major August Belmont's stable, es- tablished new track record i'll the Cyarendon Handicap at the Jamaica track yesterday afternoon. He ran five and a half furlongs in 1O:5, tWo- fifths of a. second faster than the old mark set by Startling in the Arizona last Friday. He won by only the proverbial whisker, and despite his record breaking performances It is a question of whether or not he was the best horse in the race.
 Old Koenig, the six year old bay horse belonging to J. J. Maher, was badly cut early in the race, but de- spite long and deep gash just be- low the knee of his near fore leg he ~ ran the best race of his brilliant career and finished at Lucullite' throatiatch. Even with the injury Old Koenig probably would have won with more energetic ride. Little Guy Burns was not equal to the oc- casion when it came to a nip and tuck finish with Eddie Taplin and I.ucullite got the decision.

A GOOD FRIEND

A good friend stands by you when in need. New Britain people tell how Doan's Kidney Pills have stood the test. Henry B. Johnson of 24 Maple street, New Britain, endorsed Doan's two years ago and again confirms the story. Could you ask for more con. vincing testimony?
 MT. Johnson gave the following statement May 8, 1916: "I have sui fered from attacks of kidney trouble, which have usually come on as a re- suit of over-work. Often my back be- comes so lame I am hardly able to bend and it pains me constantly af- ter retiring. I can't rest on this ac. count and mornings I am sore and stiff across my back. I get Doan's Kidney Pills at the first sign of the trouble now and before one box is used, the pains are all gone and my back is strong again"
 On December 9, 1918, MT. Johnson said: 'I usually keep Doan's Kidney Pills on hand, for know they are the best for kidney trouble. When I have had any signs of my kidneys being out of order, Doan's have never fail ed to fix me up in good shape" COG, at all dealers. Foster-Miiburn Co., Mfgrs. Buffalo, W. Y

LADIES! SECRET TO
 DARKEN GRAY HAIR
Brings Back Color, Gloss and Youth fulness With Grandma's Recipe Of
 Sage and Sulphur

Common garden sage brewed into q heavy tea, wiCn sulphur and alcohol added, will turn gray, streaked and faded hair beautifully dark and lux uriant. Mixing the Sage Tea and Sul- phur recipe at home though, is troublesome. An easier way is to get the ready-to-use preparation improved by the addition of other ingredients a large bottle, at little cost at drug stores known as 'Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Compound" thus avoiding a lot of muss.
 While gray, faded hair is not sinful we all desire to retain our youthful 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 evenly. You just dampen a sponge or soft brush with it and draw this through your hair, taking one small strand at time; by morning all gray hairs have disappeared. After another application or two your hair becomes beautifully dark, glossy, soft and luxuriant and you appear years younger.

WILL HAVE TO GO SOME.
Entrants. for Indianapolis Auto Race Must Do 85 Miles an Hour in Trials.

Indianapolis, May 20.-It begins to look as though entrants in the In dtanapolis 500-mile Liberty Sweep stakes on the Indianapolis Speedway. May 31, would have to show a qlali- flying speed of ninety-fve miles an hour or better in the elimination trials prior to tile event, in order to stay in the running.
 The thirty-three fastest cars are scheduled to start, which means that the last car to get under the wire will have to travel faster than the top most clip of ten unsuccessful rivals. In this last ten there are certain to Te a half dozen cars or more capa- ble of turning the speedway at nlne- ty-f1ve miles an hour or better, forc- ing the thirty-three survivors to " still higher rate of speed.
 Split seconds probably will deter mine the victors and vanquished in the preliminary contest, the margin of superiority between them amount ing only to a hair. Luckily the 1n- ydianapolis motor speedway owns an automatic electric timing apparatus capable of dividing a second into a hundred different parts and auto matically printing the result, so that if even two close contestants are only 1-100th of a second apart, a just ana final decision can be rendered.
 The time trials are scheduled to start four days ahead of the race giving three days for the time trials themselves, and one day for final overhauling of the cars and track. Each contestant will be allowed three attempts during any of the three days, the fastest of the three trlals being counted.

 In describing the matter of the Cathedral church the bishop said while there was room for extension of the chancel Christ church, Hart ford, is considerably larger than St. Paul's cathedral, Boston.

BIG PROBLEM IN ROAD WORK
Not to Show Need of Improved High ways CT to Raise Money but to
 Spend Funds Properly.

The value of roads to a rural district is becoming more and more apparent. The modern problem in road work is not to show the need of good roads or to raise money. The greater problem before the whole country is to organ ize so the funds in sight can be prop efly spent. Nc longer will the rural highways be allowed to remain neg. lected. But it must be remembered that with over 2.00o.000 miles of roads in the United States that it is not a problem to he solved in a month or a year or in several years.

 The year 1918 offered an unpreee- dented condition in practically all lines Of highway work. There was not only tremendous increase and expansion in the amount of heavy truck traffic on public roads and an unprecedented shortage in regard to road materials, laIor and ready funds, but also a decided increase in main- tenance work. which was, however. partially offset by decrease in the amount of new construction.
