Ladies! Darken
Your Gray Hair
4 3 GRANDMOTHER Recipe to Bring
Back Color and Lustre to Hair

That beautiful, even shade of dark,
glossy hair can only be had by prew-
ing mixture of Sage Tea and Sui
phur. Your hair is your charm. 1t
fades, turns gray or streaked, just an
application or two of Sage and Sui
phur enhances its appearance a hun
dredfold.
Don't bother to prepare the mix
ture; you can get this famous old
recipe improved by the addition of
other ingredients at small cost, all
ready for use. 1t is called Wyeth's
Sage and Sulphur Compound. This
can always be depended upon to bring
back the natural color and 1ustre of
your hair.
Every body uses "Wyeth's Sage
and Sulphur Compound" now because
1T darkens so naturally and evenly that
nobody can tell it has been applied.
You simply dampen a sponge or soft
brush with it and draw this through
the hair, taking one small strand at
time; by morning the gray hair has
disappeared, and after another ap-
pllcation it becomes beautifully dark
and appears glossy and Iustrous.

ship 1000 miles at seq were repre-
scented, And as the night crept on to-
ward dawn, the messages continued
to arrive.
By daylight it was estimated that

$4,000, with the possibility that the

Passenger And Freight
Rates Are Cut Down In England
Railways Operating Under The
Grouping System; Excess Rev.
enue Goes Back to Public -
Cheaper Living Costs Hailed.

London, Eng,-Two concrete signs
OF the gradual return tc cheaper liv-
ing appeared with the arrival of the
new year, in the form of a reduc-
ton in the fares on all London's I'M
foreground railways and bus lines
and lessening in the fares and freight
rates on all of Englands railroads
These cuts were announced simultan-
eously with the coming into force OF
the grouping system, as provided for
in the railway acts of 1921, which was
sponsored by Sir Eric Geddes, as min
lister of transport.
Railway passenger fares are reduced
from three pence and two pence per
mile for first and second classes, re-
spectiveIy to 2 IL and l IL pence
Most Of the freight rates are reduc-
ed by l ID pence on the shilling. The
reduction in the bus fares and the I'M
foreground railways are not so easily
computed because of the intricate
coming system throughout the metro
politan area: but the reductions rough
ly amount to from 10 to 20 per cent.
The railway grouping system has
been in the process of arrangement
for two years, and henceforth, instead
of l20 separate operating systems, all
of Englands lines will be consolidated
into four main groupn which will be
known as the Southern, the Great
Western, the London, Midland and
Scottish, and the London and North
eastern. The railway act provides
that the companies must earn the
standard revenue for 1918 and any ex-
cess over that standard will be dealt
with as follows: One fifth to be re-
tanned by the companies and four
fifths to be returned to the public in
the form of reduced fares and freight
rates. Earnings will be computed an
nually by the railway rates tribunal
on which members Of the companies
will have no representation.
Under the new system various i'm
provements are contemplated, both
as regards roadbeds and rolling stool
Provision is made in the law for the
wages of employees, to be fixed on a
sliding scale, so that the workmen au-
tomatically will obtain wages in acc
ordance with the earning OF the road.
1t is estimated that with the elimina-
ton of overlapping services and 9th
err economical measures 100000 lbs.
will be saved annually.
