BE PRETTY! TURN GRAY HAIR | DARK
Try Grandmother's Old Favorite Recipe of Sage Tea and
 Sulphur

Almost everyone knows that Sage Tea and Sulphur, properly com pounded, brings back the natural color and lustre to the hair when faded, streaked or gray. Years ago the only way to get this mixture was to make it at home, which is mussy and troublesome. Nowa- days, by asking at any drug store for "Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Compound" you will get large bottle of this famous old recipe, improved by the addition of other ingredients, at small cost.
 Don't stay gray Try it No one can possibly tell that you dark ened your hair, as it does it so na- turally and evenly. You dampen a sponge or soft brush with it and draw this through your hair, talk ing one small strand at time; by morning the gray hair disappears, and after another application or two, your hair becomes beautifully dark, glossy and attractive

COMPLETELY
MOTORIZED

Today's Hammond fire fightlns equip
mont is completely motorized. The new
Ahrens-Fox hose truck and pumper was
given its tryout this morning and city
officials gave IL their approval.
The big truck, which Is the largest
owned by the Hammond Fire Department
was nrst taken to the bridge on Lake
George blvd. Scr a demonstration. Wa
ter was taken from the lake for the first
test. Two lines of hose were nrst at
tached to a single large nozzle by Chief
Mis- men. The big pump was start
ed and an instant later a perfect de-
luEe OF water was being hurled far out
into the lake.
The stream from the single nozzle
place where the men operating 1t were
standing. Directed straight up into
the air Il hurled the water to height
greater than that OF Hammond high
est business block
Next the pumper was hooked to two
separate lines with smaller sized noz-
zle& The same range was demonstrat-
ed although more water was being
thrown than from the single large pipe.
At no time was the machine running
near its full capacity. It can handle
500 gallons q minute-eighteen barrels
through four lines OF hose.
The machine was then taken to High
land St. near the Industrial high school.
1t was feared that the low pressure in
the mains In this district would not
furnish sufficient water 10 keep the
pump goinE. However. with two lines
OF hose the suction pulled the main
pressure down to ten pounds showing
that sufficient water is being delivered
there to combat the ordinary fires.
John p. Ahrens. vice president OF the
Ahrene- Fox Fire Engine Co., was pres
ent and supervised tho demonstration.
Chief Nill. Mayor Brown. members OF
the Board or Safety and other city Of
