SAGE TEA DANDY
 TO DARkEN HAIR
It's Grandmother's Recipe to Bring Back Color and
 LuStPe to Hair.

You can turn gray, faded hair beau tifully dark and lustrous almost over night if you'll get bottle of ''Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Com pound" at any drug store. Millions of bottles of this old famous Sage Tea Recipe, improved by the addi- ton of other ingredients. are sold an- nua1ly. says a well-known druggist here, because 1t darkens the hair so naturally and evenly that no one can tell 1t has been applied.
 Those whose hair is turning gray or becoming faded have a surprise awaiting them, because after one or two applications the gray hair van ishes and your locks become luxuri- antly dark and beautiful.
 This is the age of youth. Gray haired, unattractive folks aren't wanted around. so get busy with Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Compound tonight and you'll be delighted with your dark, handsome hair and your youthful appearance within few days.-Adv.

Motorcycle Cop Glasses Speeder; ,,.. Buys Latter's Auto

Here is sa1esmanship raised to the Nth degree. though some will call it luck, and others sheer nerve.
 Out in Aberdeen, Wash, Carl Bunch, employed there is an automo- bile salesman,-and none can doubt his right to the tit1e-recently un- loaded the first Maxwell roadster de- livered in Aberdeen.
 Steep hills and well paved roads in the vicinity invited a trial spin that MT. Bunch couldn't resist While tearing along at speed that isn't sanctioned by any law of the land, motorcycle bearing a duly sworn representative of the law accompanied by a phantom figure known as Blind Justice came from the rear to give persistent chase.
 MT. Bunch looked over his shoulder. MT. Officer held his gaze on the speeding car. Blind Justice very serious. tested her scales.
 Perhaps some imp of the highway had perched itself on the steering wheel of the Maxwell and was urg- ing the driver for even greater speed; or perhaps MT. Bunch figured the worst hal already happened and no further harm could be done. At any rate, a merry race ensued and con- tinued for some miles with the no- torcycle finally victorious.
 MT. Bunch, forced to concede de- feat, halted Right here Blind Jus tice slipped her blfndfo1d. She saw the car; and the scales fell from hee hand at the precise moment that MT. Officer forgot court rooms and judges and warrants.
 MT. Bunch and MT. Officer convers- ed, but not about speed. Both of them knew all about speed. They took a short spin in the roadster Thirty minutes later the represen- tative of the law had purchased the car he had raced from the man he had meant to arrest. That's sales manship, though some will call it nerve or sheer luck.
 Blind Justice again bindfo1ded and fully satisfied, is riding comfort abIv these days
