FEW FOLKS HAVE
GRAY HAIR NOW
Druggist Says Ladies are Using
Recipe of Sage Tea
and Sulphur

Hair that loses it's color and lustre,
or when it fades, turns gray, duh
and lifeless, is caused by a lack OF
sulphur in the hair. Our grand
mother made up a mixture of Sage
Tea and Sulphur to keep her locks
dark and beautiful, and thousands
of women and men who value that
even color, that beautiful dark shade
of hair which is so attractive, uses
only this old-time recipe.
Nowadays we get this famous mix
ture improved by the addition of
other ingredients by asking at any
drug store for a bottle of "Wyeth's
Sage and Sulphur Compound"
which darkens the hair so naturally,
so evenly, that nobody can possibly
tell it has been applied. You just
dampen a sponge or soft brush with
it and draw this through your hair,
taking one. small strand at a time.
BY mourn the gray hair disappears;
but what delights the ladies with
Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Compound
is that, besides beautifully darken-
ing the hair after a few applica-
tions, it also brings back the gloss
and lustre and gives it an appearance
Of abundance.

GREAT 1920 ROAD PROGRAM
Necessary for Many States to Post
pone Expenditure Of Federal
Funds for Building.

David F. Houston. secretary Of agrf-
culture, in his annual report, calls at
tention to the fact that the 1919 pro-
gram for federal aid road building is
greater than any previous annual
BODYBUILDING accomplishment in this
country. 1t is 50 great, in fact, that
1t undoubtedly will be necessary for
many Of the states to postpone until
1920 the expenditure Of the federal
funds. because of the necessity of de-
veloping experienced contracting and
engineering organizations from the
stagnant conditions brought about by
the war. Under the terms of the fed
eral aid road act, the apportionment
to a state for any one fiscal year re
mains available for expenditure until
the close of the succeeding year. 1t
is estimated that funds already pro-
vided will be sufficient to finance next
year a program more than four times
greater than any that has ever been
undertaken.

ROAD .
BUILDING
DRAINAGE IS BIG ESSENTIAL
Chief Requirement Of Good Earth
Road Is Drainaoe-keep Crown
Properly Dragged.

1t can be truthfully said that drain
age is the chief essential in putting
earth roads into proper condition. An
old Scotchman, an expert road builder,
APPLY said that the three requirements
of good earth roads are drainage, more
drainage, and still more drainage. The
roads must not only have good surface
drainage but must also have good un-
der drainage. Surface drainage is Sc
cured by proper grading, adequate side
bitches, and by keeping the crown OF
the road properly dragged. Stretches
of road that do not dry out quickly
must be under-drained by tile.
The drag must be used after each
