TO DARKEN HAIR
APPLY SAGE TEA
Look Young! Bring Back It's
Natural Color, Gloss and
AttractivenesS.

Common garden sage brewed into a
heavy tea with sulphur added, will
turn gray, streaked and faded hair
beautifully dark and luxuriant. Just
few applications will prove revela-
ton if your hair is fading, streaked or
gray. Mixing the Sage Tea and Sui
phur recipe at home, though, is trou-
blesome. An easier way is to get a
bottle of Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur
Compound at any drug store all ready
for use. This is the old-time recipe i'm
proved by the addition of other in
gradients.
While wispy, gray, faded hair is not
sinful, we all desire to retain our
youthful appearance and attractive
ness. By darkening your hair with
Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Compound,
no one can tell, because it does it so
naturally, so evenly. You just dampen
a sponge or soft brush with it and
draw this through your hair, taking
one small strand at time; by morn
ing all gray hairs have disappeared,
and, after another application or two,
your hair becomes beautifully dark,
glossy, soft and uxuriant.-Advertise

army. He had only about IS years of
service, whereas most other brigadier-
generals have had from % to 26 years.
At the outbreak of the war Mac
Arthur was a major in the engineer
corps, having been attached to the
general staff and having been the war
department censor during the Perish
ing expedition into Mexico. When the
Rainbow division was organized Mac
Arthur was made a lieutenant-colonel
and chief of staff of the division and
went with it to France, where he
earned praise for his bravery, being
one of the first American officers to
go over the top with the French.
Later Macarthur was made a col
onel, then rigadier-general and for
a time he had command of the Rain
bow division He came back to the
United States as brigadier-general
and was one of the few young officers
kept in that rank His appointment
to West Point was received with gen.
eral satisfaction and his work there
has been approved by military men
everywhere.

Keep Looking Young
It's Easy-if You Know DR.
Edwards Olive Tablets.

The secret of keeping young is to
feel young-to do this you must watch
your liver and bowels--there's no need
of having a sallow complexion-dark
rings under your eyes-pimples-a bill
ious look in your face-dull eyes with
no sparkle. Your doctor will tell you
ninety per cent of all sickness comes
from inactive bowels and liver.
DR.. Edwards, a well-known physi.
clan in Ohio, perfected a vegetable
compound mixed with olive oil to act
on the liver and bowels, which he gave
to his patients for years.
DR.. Edwards Olive Tablets, the sub.
stitute for calomel. are gentle in their
action yet always effective. They
bring about that natural buoyancy
which all should enjoy by toning up
the liver and clearing the system OF
impurities.

known by their olive color. 15c and

boodling on a big scale, involving big sums of
money, which went into his pocket?
These are the questions which the public
would like to see answered concusively. MOI
stone should be left unturned to dig up the facts
and to determine, once for all, whether the pub
lie funds have been misused and whether graft
has entered into the management OF the utility.
This investigation must be an earnest and
persistent one in which every factor and every
angle will be scrutinized closely to ascertain the
truth.
The present administration has made start
on track that may lead to big discoveries. 1t
should be followed with close application and con-
scfentious zeal.
Without trying to defend the acts OF Dillon
it may be pointed out that the incident demon
strates the futity of trying to get satisfactory
results from men who are not up to the standard
for the tasks to which they are assigned.
The municipal light plant is in direct compe-
tition with private concerns who pay from $4,000
to $4,000 for efficient heads of their concerns.
To get highly competent men, cities must meet
the salary competition of privately owned util-
tiles The city cannot reasonably expect to hire
competent man for $4,000 when competitors in
the same line will pay $4,000 to $4,000 for the
Identical service. A high class man, who is at
the head of a private utility will not relinquish
his post for $4,000 annually.
| Municipalities are slow in approaching the
truth of this condition, but the sooner they do,
the quicker will they obtain efficient manage
ment and excellent results
| All of which, however, does not defend a
small-salaried man who is guilty of padding a
payroll, of accepting brides, or of indulging in
practices that do not square with the highest pre-
cepts of probity and honesty.

Investigating Light Plant Affairs

For many months reports have been persist
emily circulated about the integrity of James p
Dillon, former superintendent of the municipal
electric light plant These rumors involved both
the method of his administration of the utility
and his personal honesty
Some of these charges were of major proper
tons; others Of minor nature. His own per-
sonal affairs were dragged into the discussion
and were the subject of comment and criticism.
Confronted with them. Dillon in the past has
been able to give satisfactory explanation.
Now he is held in the county jail on charge
of making out and certifying falsely the payroll
of the light plant in seven instances, the amount
involved being $735.
The facts which the city officials have in
their possession, they say, are conclusive as to
his guilt.
The public believes that start has been made
in sitting to the bottom the accusations and
charges against his integrity as public officer.
The present charge is accepted as a basis in
vting further investigation to see if accusations
that are of graver moment and consequence are
warranted in fact.
