Sage Tea Keeps
Your Hair Dark
When Mixed With Sulphur 1t Brings
Back Its Beautiful Lustre
at Once.

Gray hair, however handsome, de-
notes advancing age. We all know
the advantages Of youthful appear
ance. Your hair is your charm. It
makes or mars the face. When it
fades, turns gray and looks streaked,
just few applications of Sage Tea
and Sulphur enhances its appearance
a hundred-fold.
Don't stay gray! Look young!
Either prepare the recipe at home or
get from any drug store a bottle of
"Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Com
pound" which is merely the old-time
recipe improved by the addition of
other ingredients. Thousands of folks
recommend this ready-to-use prepare
tion, because it darkens the hair beau
tifully, besides, no one can possibly
tell, as 1t darkens so naturally and
EVENLY. BY morning the crap hair
disappears; after another application
or two, its natural color is restored,
and it becomes thick, glossy and lus-
trous, and you appear years younger.

Dc. BAKERS
BACK On
JOBS
Get Ten Cents an Hour Raise,
But Give In on All Other
Demands.

Trouble between bakery en-
ployers and employees over wages
and working conditions, though
allayed for another twelve months
by yesterdays compromise agree
ment, will probably suffer a resur-
rection in 1924, knowing observers
predicted today.
Victory for Employers.
Their prophesies were based upon
these propositions:
The compromise formulated under
guidance of officers of the Bureau
of Mediation and Cancellation, De
partment OF Labor, Is held moral
victory for the Employing Bakers
Association.
There is a strong movement
afoot in certain sections of the EN-
ployers' group, it is said, against
the closed shop in Washington.
What the union men have gained
is simply an advance Of 10 cents
an hour for both day and night
work Their other two demands
THAT HISHI pay SCdI0S SlOuAu O0AdI

from 6 D. M to 8 a. m. and that
helpers should not be employed
upon automatic mixing machines

Unions Strong Here.
Labor Department officials de
clare that Washington has the
strongest bakery union organiza
ton of any city in the United
States, id striking contrast to Bal
timore, where the employees are al
most entirely unorganized. Certain
elements among the employers
would gladly see this condition
ended, they aver.
Demands and counter proposals
have been made respectively by the
employees and employers for the past
three years each time the period
comes round for new contract
drawing. A walkout has been avert
ed with difficulty on at least one
other occasion When the union
men left the department building
yesterday they were already speak
ing of 1924.

DIPLOMATS OF. PANAMA
PRAISE THEIR REPUBLIC

In a statement today, the Panama
legation came to the rescue of the
moral character Of the Isthmian re
public. which, it was declared GER
tain persons had taken opportunity
to assail when a drive recently was
opened in the United States to OBJ
tain 100000 for church work In
Panama.
Admitting that vice exists in
Panama and Colon, just as it exists
in America and other nations, the
legation declared the authorities are
doing everything in their power to
suppress existing evils, and added:
ut is a fact that the refinements
of vice and the drug habit were un-
known in Panama before the canal
was built. All the cocaine illicitly
consumed in the Canal Zone is SNUG
gled through the canal ports of
Ancon and Cristobal."
