IMPROVED ORDER OF RED
MEN.

One of the four largest fra
ternal societies and the oldest
and largest strictly American
Fraternity is the Improved Or
der of Red Men.
First Incorporated in 1885, it
has an honorable and enviablo
record of more than eighty years,
or great suns.
Prior to the American Revo-
luton and during the Revolu-
ton and during the War Of 1872.
there existed many societies, so
cial and patriotic, known as Sons
of Liberty, Red Men and Tamina
Societies. 1t was the Sons of
Liberty who, in 1773, cmptied the
Kings Tea into Boston Harbor.
These societies were active and
influential throughout the period
of the Revolution. From these
societies cryStalized the Improved
Order of Red M,n.
Originally the watchwcrd was
Freedom and the part that these
societies played in securing Free
dom for the American Colonies
is historical. This fraternity
therefore traces its origin back
of the formation of our Nation
and to these patriotic societies
which helped in the establishment
of the greatest nation of the
world.
As fraternity the Improved
Order of Red Men claims for its
heritage that glorious emblem,
Old Glory, and it Is reminder
to every member of his implied
pledge to defend the Flag of our
Union from every danger. To
Freedom was later added. in the
need of q broader field, the mot
to, Friendship. and Brotherly
Love shared the interest with
Patriotism.
Later. in 1875, when the Order
was first Incorporated and when
the present great work was I'M
dertaken, Charity was added.
With about 5000 branches, in
every State, Territory and Pos
session of the United States, and
there only, this fraternity ex-

and it gets the best.
It's ritalistic ceremonies are
purely American, original and
distinctive, and give to posterity
a demonstration of the best pc
cuIiaritieS Of the primitive North
American Indian.
Founded on the manners, Gus
toms and traditions of this Won
derful aboriginal people, the ritu-
alistic work portraYs something
original and fascinating and
when faithfully delineated ne
comes instructive as we'll as in
tensely interesting.
We teach the true American
citizen, when accepted into our
covenant OF faith, that the de-
greeS of the Improved Order Of
Red Men are representative of
q race whose ceremonies in their
forest homes were cleyating and
contained lessons that bound them
together, as they do US, in the
bonds of Unity and good fell
lowship.
The Improved Order of Red
Men is a secret society, yet there
is nothing in its ritual or its laws
that debars man or woman on
account of creed or nativity.
Each member must be Il white
citizen of the United States. a be-
lever in the Supreme Being ana
able to earn d livelihood and OF
rood reputation and character.
Strictly fraternal and benevolent
in it's character, the Order teach
es lessons that elevate and IN
still into the hearts and minds OF
its members true Friendship, Pa
triotism and b. the care OF our
dependents. as we'll as the good
traits of the aboriginal North
American Iadian.

AN OLD RECIPE
 TO DARKEN HAIR
Sage Tea and Sulphur Turns Gray.
 Faded Hair Dark and Glossy.

Faded Hair Dark and Glossy. Almost everyone knows that Sage
 Tea and Sulphur, properly compound
 ed, 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 it at home, which is mussy and trou- blcsome.
 Nowadays we simply ask at any drug store for 'Wyeth's Sage and Sul- phur Compound" You will get a large bottle of this old d-time recipe i'm proved by the addition of other in- gredients, at very little cost. Every body uses this preparation now, be- cause no one can possibly tell that you darkened your hair as it does it so naturally and evenly You dam pen a sponge or soft brush with 1t and draw this through your hair, taking one small strand at a time: by morning the gray hair disappears and after another application or two, your hair becomes beautifully dark, thick and glossy and you look years younger.
