Stamp Means Little, but Hurts Price

Question-Will you inform me why Sea-
board per cent gold bonds, not stamped.
are quoted six or seven points higher than
the same bond stamped &C. d.
Answer-In the reorganization of the
Seaboard Air Line, which took place
without foreclosure in 1908, part OF the
bondholders OF the first gold Is agreed
to having their bonds stamped as call
able by the company at par. The bonds
We're so stamped. Apparently there is
nc difference in value between the I'M
stamped and the stamped bonds. The
likelihood that the Seaboard Air Line
will call its bonds at par is remote
indeed. Even were the money market
to change so that good bonds would
sell on 37a per cent basis, it is unlike
~ that the Seaboard would be in posi-
ton to call its per cent bonds. The
difference in price, therefore, appears
to be one of sentiment rather than one
Of reason based on actual value. Lots
Of people won't have stamped bond.

FARMERS APPROVE
BUDGET OF STATE
BILL FOR SCHOOL
Especial to The Argus. J

Urbana, ILL.,, March 31.-Entire
approval of the University of/1lli-
nois' campaign for more funds as
embodied in the appropriation bill
now before the legislature was
voiced by the report of the special
Joint committee Of state farm or
CARNATIONS representing all the or
gained groups Of farmers in the
state.
In general" says the report
only one conclusion is possible
that something definite and con-
structive must be done at once i.
the work in agricultural instruc-
ton and research is to be rehabili-
tated soon enough to hold the fac
ulty and to prevent an entire de-
moralization of the work,
THE committee finds that with
the single exception of dairying
the percentage increases which i,
believes are needed in the variou,
departments are all above the G.
per cent general increase which the
university trustees are asking in
the university bill. .
This can mean only that the
university budget must have beer
very carefully and conservatively
made up and the least that can be
done is to support the university
bill in all its details"

lowing her in and locked the door

He then forced her down in a
chair and tried to force her to

HAVE DARK HAIR
AND LOOK YOUNG
Nobody Can Tell When You Darker
Gray, Faded Hair With
Sage Tea.

Grandmother kept her hair beau
tifully darkened. glossy and attrac-
tive with brew of Sage Tea and
Sulphur. Whenever her hair took
on that dull, faded or streaked, ap-
pearance, this simple mixture was
applied, with wonderful effect. By
asking at any drug store for
"Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Com
pound" you will get large bottle
Of this old-time recipe, improved by
the addition Of other ingredients, all
ready to use, at very little cost.
This simple mixture can be de-
pended upon to restore natural color
and beauty to the hair.
A well-known downtown druggist
says everybody uses Wyeth's Sage
and Sulphur Compound now be-
cause 1t darkens so naturally and
evenly that nobody can tell it has
been applied-it's so easy to use,
too. You simply dampen comb or
soft brush and draw 1t through the
hair, taking one strand at a time.
By morning the gray hair disap-
pears; after another application or
two, It Is restored to its natural
color, and looks glossy, soft and
beautiful.-(Adv)
