HxSE NEW BAodx0 ACT
Railroad Auonessssssl Arc Busy Ex-
planning New Rule

Railroad authorities are now busy
explaining the new baggage rules
placed into effect Wednesday. To the
average short distance traveller who
carries little baggage, the rules are
simple matter once 1t is under
stood that statements of valuation
must be made in all cases, but per-
sons In the habit Of taking large,
elaborate and expensive wardrobes
with them, and statesmen who carry
number of trunks, had better take
day OFF, hire an expert accountant
and do some figuring. Coming on
top Of income tax returns the new
regulations are really a serious mat
ter.
In the first place the value Of all
baggage must be declared in writing
before the railroad company will ac-
cept 1t. The passenger will be fur
nished with printed slip for this
purpose and it must be filed out by
the passenger without assistance
from the baggage agent. The agent
may inform the passenger as to the
rules and the limits on weight and
valuation but the amount of the lat
ter must be determined by the
passenger who must also sign the
slip before the baggage will be ac-
cepted.
$50 Pounds Of Baggage Allowed
Any baggage will be accepted
and checked without charge which
does not weigh over $50 pounds and
on which valuation Of 500 or less
is placed. If the baggage weighs
more than $50 pounds, the free liza
bility assumed by the railroad COM
pany is at the rate of SO % cents
per pound, and only the excess
weight is charged for. For example,
If trunk weighs $50 pounds, the
railroad will accept responsibility for
the extra value of thirty pounds at
So 2-3 cents per pound, but will
charge for the excess weight of thir-
ty pounds. If the declared value of
baggage is above 500 the excess
valuation is charged for at the rate
Of 10 cents per hundred dollars. No
baggage will be accepted with a de-
clared valuation Of over $4,000, and
the maximum liability accepted by
the railroads on baggage which is
not locked is $25.
The primary object Of the new reg
ulations is said to be to relieve the
railroad companies Of the liability
of paying out heavy sums for bag
gage that is lost In the past it is
said that the railroads have fire.
quently paid out hundreds of dollars
for baggage which was actually
worth only few dollars. The new
regulations have been adopted by the
Western Passenger Association and
will be effective on all western rail
roads, it is said, at least on all of the
roads in Kansas. The same rules
have been in force in the east for
several wears

AN OLD RECIPE
TO DARKEN HAIR
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 troublesome.
Nowadays we simply ask at any drug
store for "Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur
Compound" You will get large bot
tie of this old-time recipe improved by
the addition of other ingredients, at
very little cost. Everybody uses this
preparation now, because no one can
possibly tell that you darkened your
hair, as it does it SO naturally and even
ly. You dampen 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 application or two, your
hair becomes beautifully dark, thick and
glossy and you look years younger.
