display the beautiful wardrobes that
are a feature of this picture.

satin, and demure bodice with gray
lace collar forming a small cape in
the back and finished with many
fluttering loops of gray satin edging

the bodice, describes only one of the
many costumes she wears.

Grecian in type, chooses the dignity
of long lines, flowing panels and in

Sage Tea and Sulphur Turns

Almost everyone knows that Sage
Tea and sulphur, properly COM
pounded, 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 1T at home, which Is
mussy and troublesome.
Nowadays we simply ask at any
drug store for "wyeths Sage and

cipe improved by the addition of

cost. Everybody uses this prepara-
ton now, because no one can posi-
bly, tell that you darkened your
hair, as it does 1t so naturally and
evenly. You dampen sponge or
soft brush with it and draw this
through your hair, taking one small
strand at a time: by morning the
gray hair disappears, and after an
other application or two. your hair
becomes beautifully dark, thick and
glossy and you look years younger.

vance.
Some people in Casper are prop
erty poor. 1t is n large city spread
over u largo territory. 1t is a city
of unlimited wealth in real estate,
but much OF this real estate re-
to the full extent OF its power.
Much of it is but a burden on tax
payers who are reaping no benefit
from 1t.
The only way to remove the bur
den of taxation is to create property
demand. Real estate unused is Il
luxury. To let 1t lie year after year
without producing anything of ben
eft to the community its an error
that is not without Is price in the
property of many large realty own
ers.
1t has been reiterated time and
again that the Wyoming North and
South railroad will mean increased
property values. There is not a real
estate owner in Casper who could
not afford to dispose of part of his
property to this cause and profit
as a result of the disposition. This
Is IN addition to cash bonuses which
should be forthcoming from other
sources.
II would lei that the property
thus donated would be taken over
by the railroad, hat its taxes would
be paid by the railroad, and hat it
would be turned again at an oppor-
tune time without either the ne
cesslty OF turning It at a loss or
holding Vt for extremely high prices.
Casper is OF the mark. 1t will
jump forward in the race whenever
this Is done. and not until ii is
done. The citizens of Casper can
not afford to hold back the march
of its progress by any selfish inter
est, or by any idea of holding out
and letting the other fellow make
the sacrifice.
1t Is for each man and I'M In
dividually TO make the sacrifice, and
to do 1t in proportion to the ability
to come u from under IT with sue.
cess at hand.
Casper is being weighed in the
balance. It has never failed.
