TURN HAIR DARK.
WITH SAGE TEA
Grandma kept her locks dark,
glossy and youthful with simple
mixture of Sage Tea and Sulphur.

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 1t to keep their hair q good,
even color, which Is quite sensible,
as we are living in an age when
youthful appearance Is of the
greatest advantage.
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 Com
pound" 1t Is very popular because
nobody can discover 1t has been ap-
piled. Simply moisten your comb
or a soft brush with 1t and draw
this through your hair, taking one
small strand at time; by morning
the gray hair disappears. but what
delights the ladies with Wyeth's
Sage and Sulphur Compound, Is
that, besides beautifully darkening
the hair after few applications 1t
also produces that soft lustre and
appearance Of abundance which Is
SO attractive. This ready to-use
preparation is a delightful toilet
requisite for those who desire a
more youthful appearance. 1t is
not intended for the cure, mitiga-
ton or prevention of disease.

SAWM|LL TAKES
ACTION To CUT
RATES ON LOGS
Mckinley Land and Lumber
Company Asks Corpora
ton Commission to Order
Tariff Reduced.

Petition that the corporation
commission order the Santa Fe
Railroad company to reduce the
rate on logs from Thoreau to Al
buquerque has been filed with the
commission by +, w. Dobson, at
torney for the Mckinley Land and
pected that the commission will
set date for the hearing soon and
cite the Santa Fe to show cause
why the rate should not be re-
duced.
Raising of the rate recently
caused the sawmill of the McKin-
ley company here to be closed and
no logs are being shipped in under
the increased rate, Mr. Dobson
stated last night. The mill has
shut down completely, but the box
factory is still being operated and
men are at work in the woods cut
ting logs and hauling them to the
tracks at Thoreau, Mr.. Dobson
said But no shipments are being
made to Albuquerque.
Charges In Petition.
The petition charges that the
Santa Fe had agreed to haul its logs
from the woods in Mckinley coun-
ty to its mills at Albuquerque for
$3.50 per 1000 feet. The railway
was still under federal control at
the time and, according to the pc
tition, asked that the signing Of a
contract, embodying the agreement,
be postponed until it had been
turned back 20 private ownership.
The increased rate, which brings
the charge of $3.l2h, was put into
effect over the corporation com
missions head. In allowing the
freight increases, granted by the
interstate commerce commission,
for intrastate shipments, the COM
mission specifically excepted the
log rate. The railway then filed
a tariff increasing the log rate in
proportion to the blanket increase.
Up To Supreme Court?
In view of its former ruling, Mr..
Dobson said. the corporation com
mission will probably order the
road to reduce its rates to the con-
tract agreement If the road re-
fuses to do this, as it may, be-
cause the corporation commission
lacks power to enforce its rulings,
an appeal will be taken by the lum-
Der company to the supreme court. |
If the court upholds the ruling Of
the commission, Mr. Dohson said, |
