which is coneidered 10 he the first real
test OF the strength OF the shopmen's

Another reason for the Increased ac-

main at work pending the outcome OF
another conference with the labor
board on their wage scale.

According 10 the legend of the Chip

that he would make the earth. He
pounded the sell between his power
full hands until il grew into a great
ball.
Then Menaboshu mixed water with
the soil 10 form mud. and besides,

then undertook 10 devise the living
things which dwell on the earth.
The first bear escaped from its
maker, leaped TO the earth and bound
ed straightway across the North
American continent. But the land
where the sprawling bears huge
paws struck the earth was still so
fresh and soft that they left deep
tracks.
These deep marks quickly filed with
water. Scarcely had the frightened
bear bounded away when the beauti-
full lakes-Superior, Michigan, Huron
Ontario and Erie-appeared, full 10

EASY TO DARKEN
YOUR GRAY HAIR
You Can Bring Back Color and
Lustre With Sage Tea
and Sulphur

When you darken your hair with
Sage Tea and Sulphur, no one can
tell, because it's done 30 naturally,
so evenly. Preparing this mixture,
though, at home is mussy and trou-
blesome. At little cost you can buy
at any drug store the ready-to-use
preparation, improved by the addi-
ton of "Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur
Compound" You Just dampen a
sponge or soft brush with 1t and
draw this through your hair, taking
one small strand at a time. By
morning all gray hair disappears,
and, after another application or
two. becomes beautifully darkencd
glossy and luxuriant.
Cray, faded hair. though no dis,
grace, is a sign of old age, and as
we all desire youthful and attrac-
tive appearance, get busy at once
with Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur
Compound and look years younger
