An Old Recipe
To Darker Hair
Sage Tea and Sulphur Turns Gray,
Faded, Hair Dark and GJoeex-; -

Sage Tea and Sulphur Turns Gray,
Faded, Hair Dark and Glossy.
Almost everyone knows that, Sage
Tea and Sulphur, properly compound
ed, brings back the natural color and
lustre to the hair when faded, streaked
or gray. Years ago the only way to
get. this mixture was to make it at
home, which is mussy and trouble
some. s'~ III
Nowadays we simply ask. at any
drug store for "Wyeth's Sage and
Sulphur Compound You will get a
larpe bottle of this yold-time recipe
improved by the addition of other in
gradients, at very little cost. Every
body uses this preparation now, be-
cause no one can possibly tell that
you darkened your hair, as it does it
SO naturally and evenly. You damp
en- sponge or soft brush with it and
draw this through your hair, taking
one small strand at time; by morn
ing the gray hair disappears, and af-
ter another application or two, your
hair becomes beautifully dark, thick
and glossy and you look years young

TYPHOID FEVER
ON INCREASE

During 1921 deaths from typhoid
fever increased SO per cent over the
previous year. This is not altogether
surprising since the Stat eBoard of
Health sent out numerous warnings
that an increase in the prevalence of
this disease was to be expected unless
preventative measures were instituted.
These measures are as follows: first
the installation of sanitary apparat-
us for the disposal OF human filth,
which filth is responsible for the
spread of typhoid fever, as we'll as
other disorders of the intestinal tract.
Second - the administration of anti
typhoid vaccine.
Every individual who reads these
lines is urged 10 cooperate with the
health workers, both local, state and
Federal in instituting both of these
measures this year.
If your home is equipped with nei-
ther sanitary plumbing nor sanitary
privy, you should get busy before an
other sunset and secure the protection
of such sanitary apparatus. Either
your County Board of Health of the
State Board of Health will be glad to
give you any assistance possible, and
if you and your household did not re-
ceive anti fvnhoid ;nnnc,,1a+;ons tae+
year you should see to it that each
one takes the vaccine at once, and not
wait until the Supply which the State
Board of Health now has on hand is
exhausted.
Order your vaccine today and have
your health officer or your family
physician administer it To delay is to
take dangerous and unnecessary
chance.

6 A NEW splendor of God must come out of
~ the heart of this industrial age else we
shall remain chaotic"
Officials of the National Cathedral Association
present the only justification necessary for their
work in Washington by quoting this text from
Carlyle. Not only will the Episcopal Church and
the City of Washington owe the organization debt
of gratitude. The United States will have the last
ing profit of their work.
We can judge only from the experience of the
past as to what will be permanent in our present
civilization. In 100 years much will have been for
gotten Industrial greatness is of importance only
in its day and generation. individuals acquire
great wealth and their descendants become poor
again. Governments prosper and decline. But the
inspired art of nation never is forgotten. The
poetry, the painting and the architecture a people
produce live for all time.
The great cathedral under construction at the
end of Massachusetts, avenue will constitute in
years to come, incarnation of the soul of
America AS the massive churches of the middle
ages typify the yearning of the souls of dur
ing those dark days, will this represent the
reverence and the worship which underlie our teem-
ing, industrial life. 1t is monument which will
stand when the United States is no more among
nations.
We not land OF gross materialists. The
average European however, believes we are. He
sets against the comfort of living in America the
artistic glories of his country and is partly
satisfied. His attitude is one of jealous contempt
few cathedrals such this is planned to be-
comparing favorably with those at Cologne and
Milan, will remove the justification for such impress
sions
The United States, in her few years of exist
ence, has made considerable progress in the de-
velopment of a great art. The construction of this
cathedral will be long step ahead in this direction

tenn. A, board of education independent of the
District Commissioners and independent Of neigh
borlood politics, composed Of able educators and
business men, soon would accomplish miracles.
With such organization, despite the made
quate material with which they must work.. WASH
ngton people might look with reasonable hope to
the day when their schools would be models for
the United States and for the world. The present
system. with its lack of centralized responsibility,
cam lead only to -blunder after blunder. Improve
ments will be made here and there. Definite
progress will be noted now and then. But on the
whole the school system will remain stationary. if
it does not actually lose ground.
No organization of citizens picked at random
can be expected to cope efficiently with school
problems. The educatopal system of city is as
technical and intricate as It's street railway or
water system. When lsymen. without even the
qualifications of enthusiastic amateurs, attempt to
deal with such affairs disaster is apt to result

school board under the present system may
be competent it may not. There is reason
why it should be. Responsibility is not central

fan definitely the backs of individuals.
Until such a system is in effect any school
improvements or any plans for the future will be
only temporary. Permanent measures for the bet

must wait until intelligent plan is in effect.

How Reformers Think.

To the Editor. The Washington Herald:
Referring to the letter written
by Herbert f Howell:
Mr.. Howelrs viewpoint is so typ
ical of the vast majority of the
self-annointed apostles OF intoler-
ance: /. e.. the "upliftcrs." the
blue-law advocates. the anticigar-
cite, antitea and coffee. anti-every-
Neutrality-suspicious. So
cieties. now rampant in these
United Saates. that one finds il ex-
tremely difficult to believe that he
does not agree with all reformers
or their advocates" Where does
he draw the line? With what re-
forms is he not in complete sym
pathy?
Mr.. Howell resorts to the ancient
rubber-stamp comparison between
the advocates Of the abolition of
slavery. etc. and the present-day
advocates of the abolition Of cigar
cites, tea. coffee and what not
This comparison is so feeble. so
ridiculous and offensive to every
one with an iota OF intellect or a
spark of reasoning power that il
calls for little comment and much
contempt. 1t will only appeal to
sub-morons and PhiIistines.
Aside from the genuine pleasure
which many, many people derive
from their use, il seems to me that
Mr. Howell begs the question when
he proceeds on the assumption that
cigarettes. tea and coffee have been
proven to be such monstrous evils
Many excellent physicians believe
they are not hurtful when used in
moderation. Even an occasional
drink of wine or spurious liquor is
favored by many level-headed doc
tors (not professional conjurors Of
bugaboos). that is, when used in
moderation.
However. il is perhaps useless to
tell Mr.. Howell this. The word
moderation in anything is unknown
to the reformer, professional and
amateur. He simply assumes as a
matter of course that the American
people (himself excluded) are so
Incorporate, so hoggish in their
habits, that such pure. lofty souls
as he must needs see that they are
protected" against their own alta
vistic instincts. To this end he is
constantly devising laws to be
placed on the statute books, de-
signed to Prussianize their daily
life to the smallest detail. His
imagination is unbounded. His
ideas are handed down, no doubt,
from his ancestors. who were, in
all probability, the Sadistic. reform
ers of ancient times; who forced
tins by way of much pleasant
playthings as the stake, the thumb
screw, the rack and the ducking
stool.
II Mr.. Howell were an observing
man, however, he would see that
the people of the United States
have become extremely weary OF
the gratuitous attempts OF the self
styled reformers TO interfere with
their petty pleasures, their daily
life. through drastic, restrictive
legislation. The recent overwhelm-
ing sentiment against the proposed
blue laws" proves that.
Finally, let Mr.. Howell take this
to heartfelt the other fellow
smoke his head OF, IL he so desires,
and swill tea and coffee (and
strong waters IL he can get it),
Perhaps the poor. benIghted idiot
does feel the need OF stimuIant
after a hard days work at that.
