$4,000 BOTTLES
SOLD In NEW YORK
BIGGEST THING OF KIND EVER
SEEN IN THAT STATE, DE-
CLARES WHOLESALER.

The fact that 625,000 bottles Of Tan
lac have been sold in the state OF New
York since its Introduction there less
than one year ago is a big business
item that will attract unusual atten-
ton throughout the entire east for
nothing like it has ever happened be-
fore. It breaks all records.
Mr.. George B. Evans, manager OF
known wholesale druggists, with
branches in Albany, Buffalo, Roches-
ter and Syracuse, recently announced
that the preparation was now selling
in their trade territories alone at the
phenomenal rate of Approximately 500,-
900 bottles a year
IF the present rate continues" said
Mr. Evans, "this state alone will prob
ably require considerably over 100000
bottles a year. This is a tremendous
figure, but | am really conservative in
making this statement"

SAGE AND SULPHUR
DARKENS GRAY HAIR
It's GRANDMOTHER Recipe to
Restore Color, Gloss
and Attractiveness.

Almost everyone knows that sage
Tea and Sulphur, properly compound
ed, brings back the natural color ana
lustre to the hair when faded, streaked
or gray. Years ago the only way to
get this mixture was to make 1t at
home, which is mussy and trouble
some. Nowadays, by asking at any
drug store for "Wyeth's Sage and Sui
phur Compound" you will get large
bottle OF this famous old recipe, inn
proved by the addition of other in
gradients, at small cost.
Don't stay gray! Try it! No one
can possibly tell that you darkened
your hair, as it does it So naturally
and evenly. You dampen a sponge or
soft brush with it and draw this
through your hair, taking one small
strand at time; by morning the gray
hair disappears, and after another APP
plication or two your hair becomes
beautifully dark, glossy and attractive.
Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Com
pound is a delightful toilet requisite
for those who desire dark hair and a
youthful appearance. 1t is not in
tended for the cure, mitigation or pre-
vention of disease.

WORKING OUT OF A
Weller OF WASTE
HARDIN RECOUNTS THE
ACHIEVEMENTS OF HIS
ADMINISTRATION.

WASHINGTON, d. C.-Presiden1
Harding, in a letter reviewing the
achievements to date Of the republican
administration particularly with refer
ence to congress, declares that ."sur-
>veying the national situation as a
whole it is plain that we are working
our way out of welter of waste and
prodiga1 spending at a most impress
i've rate"
The letter, made public today, was
written by the president under date
of August % to Senator Mccormick,
Of Illinois. The letter, it is understood,
is considered by republican leaders as
a reply to attacks on the Legislative
record of the republican congress by
Chairman White of the democratic ma
tional committee, and, other leading
democrats.
"We have made much progress to-
ward retrenchnent and greatly in
creased efficiency President Harding
asserts. Il can not but account 1t a
monumental accomplishment which
has marked the work of the eXtraordi-
nary session down to the time OF its
recess"
Debtor Nations Must Pay.
Looking to the future, Mr.. Harding
in his letter expressed the confident
hope that congress after the recess
and before the end Of the eXtraordi-
nary session will adopt both the tariff
and taxation measures and that along
with these it will pass the bill to per
NIT funding the debt owed us by for
eign governments"
This, l hope" the president adds,
will shortly be followed by arrange
ments under which the Sdebtor coun
tries will begin paying interest on
their obligations Likewise, | am con-
fdent that the bill facilitating the
funding Of the debt of the railways to
the United States, will become law
during the extraordinary session, thus
insuring large and immediate de
mand for employment of men now
idle"

DEVOTE LIVES TO AID
SUFFERING ANIMALS
GIVE OVER HALF OF INCOME
TO HELP NEGLECTED AND
FORSAKEN PETS.

Living in little cottage, surround
ed bv rose bushes, bird houses, flower
beds and fruit trees Miss Sarah Jacobs
and H. H. Jacobs, OF Kansas City
Mo, have consecrated their lives TO
ameliorating the hardships visited up
on mans often neglected and abused
companions. They are giving up more
than half of Mr. Jacobs modest IN
come to make life less rigorous Tor
suffering animals.
There are many pets in the Jacobs
home. The animal family" includes
ten dogs, two score cats and two par
rofs The care of these pets, however,
represents only a minor part OF the
activities OF the two workers. Both are
officers in the county humane society
and labor incessantly to benefit animal
life through that source. With all this
the Jacobs are not unmindful OF the
needs of the unfortunate children and
even adults OF the city, as they are
active in the Associated Charities.
Tragic Stories Revealed.
Most of the pets in the Jacobs home
have been taken there by persons who
had found them suffering i'll the streets
or were too poor to look alter them.
MANY carry a story OF human interest,
with sometimes a tragedy.
There is Cinderella, who had been
badly wounded. The Jacobs decided
to ch1oroform the dog to relieve Its
intense suffering. Finally it struggled
over to the open fireplace and curled
I'D in the warm ashes Soon it showed
signs OF rallying, and they concluded
if should live. 1t did recover. The in
cidert strongly reminded them OF the
fairy story OF the little girl sitting IN
the ashes and who later was able to
wear the glass slipper, and the spotted
hound became Cinderella.
Yarrow, a cat with an interesting
career, was named after Mary Cralge
Yarrow. noted humane worker OF
Philadelphia. This cat once was com
panion of little boy. The boy died,
and on the night of the funeral the an
imal was carried away and locked in
freight car bound for Arkansas. A
fortnight later the cat returned home,
nearly starved The boys mother took
it to the Jacobs home.
Some of the animals Of other days,
especially favorites that had earned
some mark of distinction, are buried III
the flower garden. There are no mark
ers, save a stone border around the
grave Of Hermano, long in the faini-
". Hermano had saved Miss Jacobs
life in Texas when a big RATHER was
about to strike her The dog bounced
upon the snake and received the pois-
onous bite. He became blind, but lv-
cd for many years.
Asked about the cost OF pursuing
their humane work Miss Jacobs said
it amounted to 5000 or $500 year;
She insisted, however, that this did
not constitute sacrifice, because they
derived pleasure from it and preferred
to spend their money in this way, even
if it forced them to give up many
comforts

Cut Out Meat
And Be Happy

Chicago, June 10.-"Cut out
meat and be happy" was the ad-
vice given today by DR.. Edwin An
tisdale, of Chicago, in an address be
fore the convention of the three me
dical societies.
"If you would enjoy life in its
highest form, wit hgood health, the
ability TO think clearly, with free
dom from anger and other disagree
able traits, cut out the meat diet
and eat plenty of spinach, cabbage
and celery. These fods are rich in
minerals and solids" the doctor
continued. But the potato is king
of the tuber tribe. Potatoes should
be baked and eaten skins and all.
Nature assemblies the valuable salts
near the skin of the potato and the
skin should be aten. When potatoes
are boiled. the water should be US
ed as gravy.
"One egg a day will take the
place of meat, you don't need more.
Butter, whole milk and cream are
the most valuable fodos. Uncooked
foods, such as fruits and nuts, are
the best brain nourishers. Fruits
should always be eaten with the
skins. Follow these hints and you
will never get sleepy or tired ex-
cept in the normal way"

Pueblo, Colo, June 10.-A bright
sunshine today played over flood
striken Pueblo and made the more
imperative work of removing dead
bodies of animals and clearing away
of debris as a precautionary mea-
sure against disease.
Already the stencil OF decaying
meat in the flooded area has given
to this section the odor of a pack
ing house or a glue factory.
All night gasoline pumps work
ed on flooded cellars throughout
the business district pouring thou
sands of gallons of water into the
streets and again converting them
into quagmires OF mud. The cor
respondent rode through the dis
trict shortly before midnight with
the Colorado rangers. More streets
were passable to automobiles than
al any other time.
The body of an unidentified girl
about 16 years of age was found by
rangers shortly after midnight in
the Fountain river at the Fourth
street bridge.
Completion of the refugee camp
near Mineral Palace park was eX
pected today and arrangements are
being made to bring refugees into
it Immediately Another camp is
to be constructed on the south side.
A squad of marines from Denver
20 gny in
ization of the refugees.
A convoy of trucks left early to-
day to bring back food and supplies
from Colorado Springs.
Railroads announced yesterday that
refugees would be transported from
Pueblo, free of charge upon rec
ommendation of the Red Cross.
Arrangements for relief of the
Mexicans here was made by Felipe
G.. Trevino, consul at Denver, who
has 10000 appropriated by the
Mexican government for this pur-
pose.
Red Cross relief for the entire
Colorado disaster was placed in the
hands of A. w. Jones, of st. Louis
by James L. Fleser, manager Of
the southwestern division who is on
the ground.
Work of recovering the dead has
been subordinated to the work of
cleaning up and restoring santa
ton. The search for bodies was hard
ly yet begun. Great piles of debris
are in the downtown streets ready
to be carried away. 1t is expected
that the cleanup work will reveal
more definitely the loss of life,
which Red Cross estimates place at
500.
