In the Midst of IA Mob.

In the Midst of Mob
COON we perceived that it would
~ be useless for us to make any
plans for the rescue of Ann. Martha
observed:
ct would be as easy to get Ann
out of this besieged fortress as to
extricate ourselves from this crowd
We've got stay right where we are,
Janew
We had parked our car in a cor
ner of the paved court which sep
arated the court house from the pris-
on. Seated in it, the last in long
row of autos, we were caught in the
mob!
Following the iirs1 few fleet footed
leaders of the mob came the mutter
and growl of the slower moving
throng. Then a mass of angry men
flowed around the corner of the
street, and with a roar and a rush,
filled the place, as water fills a canal
lock when the upper gate IS openad
My coupe was wedged into that
edge Of the crowd which was close
to the woman's wing of the prison.
From where we sat, Martha and |
could see the steps which led to the
Jail offices and the mob leaders who
guarded the men working with torch
es at the locks of the entrance doors
From dozens of throats came di.
rections of other would-be leaders
Orders were shouted to blockade the
back of the prison. 49,
"I'm shakingp' l clutchcd MARTHA

Lots of it would burn like kindling
Poor little Ann what can we DO
What can we do? Martha, l mus

"a good plan - if you can fine
way through that pack" ! Martha
indicated the besiegers.

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, dull and
lifeless, is caused by lack of sulphur
in the hair Our grandmother made
up 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 at
tractive use 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 dark
ems 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 morning
the gray hair disappears; but what
delights the ladies with Wyeth's Sage
and Sulphur Compound is that, be-
sides beautifully darkening the hair
after few applications, it also brings
back the gloss and lustre and gives it
an appearance of abundance.
Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Com
pound is delightful toilet requisite
to impart color and a youthful APP
pearance to the hair. It is not in
tended for the cure, mitigation or pre-
vention OF disease.

TOO few people realize the value
of the common everyday onion.
1t is rich in both sulphur and phos-
phorus, two minerals craved by out
worn tissues. Fresh vegetables con-
tanning minerals must be served dali
ly during the winter months to off
set the larger amount of starch and
fat in the diet. People in the coun-
try find it impossible to get the fresh
vegetables found in city markets but
they do have onions.
One of the incest ways to cook
onions, from every point of view, is
to bake them right in their husks.
Choose quite small onions so
they Will bake quickly Do not
wash or peel or season or add any
water. Use an old pan to bake them
in. Put the onions in the pan and
bake about forty-fve minutes in a
moderate oven. Quite a little syrup
bakes out of the onions. Serve them
in the husks and let each person sea-
son their onion with salt and pepper
and butter. The top part of the
onion lifts out with fork and makes
them perfectly easy to eat.
Many people who refuse onions on
general principles like them baked
this way.
Menu for Tomorrow.
BREAKFAST Tangerines,
scrambled eggs, rye mullins, coffee.

beef, baked potatoes, apple salad,

is no value in cutting off the dogs tail an inch

American business are sound; the royal wealth
of the country is increasing; have not more
