AN OLD RECIPE
TO DARKEN HAIR
-Sage Tea and Sulphur Turns
Gray, 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 troublesome.
Nowadays we simply ask at any drug
store for ''Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur
Compound" You will get large bot
tie of this old-time recipe improved by
the addition of other ingredients, at
very little cost. Everybody uses this
preparation now, because no one can
possibly tell that you darkened your
hair, as it does it so naturally and even
ly. You dampen a 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 another application or two, your
hair becomes beautifully dark, thick and
glossy and you look years younger.

Hints
by the
Father Of
Physical
Culture
BERNARR
MAcrADOEN

The average person imagines
that an athletes mysterious
iperson, gifted with remarkable
powers. This-is an error. Every
man and every woman should be
an athlete, for to be an athlete
means that one is capable of hand
ling the body easily and gracefully
and eutif441ng the muscular power
to tie fullest possible extent. 1t
means the ability to run and jump,
and The possessions of strength of
the arms and body. These mani
.festafions of strength in the body
of an athlete do not indicate pos
session merely of extraordinary
muscular strength. They usually
also indicate nervous energy and
internal functional strength. To
the average individual, when one
speaks of muscles he is supposed to
mean the biceps of the upper arm.
This is a mistake. Muscles are
used in every function of the body,
whether voluntary or involuntary.
The most perfect athlete is the one
whose nervous and muscular sys-
TENS are the best nourished and
under the most perfect control.
The fact that athletes generally
put themselves under a course of
training, which includes rather
severe dietetic restrictions, has
fos cred the idea that the athlete
is different from the ordinary per-
son. But the reason for this
training in reality is to overcome
the evil results that have followed
from improper dietetic habits that
10 person at any time should allow
himeelf to yield to-
The athletes body is subject to
exactly the same laws that govern
the body of every other person.
Hence. it Is very evident that there
are 10 foods that have any special
influence on an athlete in increas-
ing his POI. ers- in one way or
another. The only manner in
which diet can influence ones
athletic ability is by its effect upon
his general health. Hence those
foods that build the greatest
amount of energy and enable one
to acquire the greatest possible de-
gree of vitality to be used in mem
tai work would be equally useful
for purposes of physical activity
of any kind.
The dietary of the average man
contains many articles of food
which are neither wholesome nor
strengthening. and while they are
unsatisfactory for use at the train
ing table of the athlete, they are
equally unsuitable for food at every
other table.

CAIRO, Egypt, Nov. 1.-Two bombs, one of which exploded were thrown at Major General Sir Lee Stack, sirdad of the Egyptian army, while he was driving home from the ministry of war today.

CHICAGO POLITICIAN HELD CHARGE cCUNTERFEITlNG
 OF u. s. SAVING STAMPS

CHICAGO, Nov. 17.-Ben Newark, well known Republican politician of Illinois, who as assistant state fire marshal, attained notoriety two years ago during the trial of Gov ernor Men Small by being held for contempt of court for refusal to an swer questions on the witness stand, is being sought by the police and federal authorities on charges of counterfeiting Liberty Bonds and Treasury Savings certificates. War rants have been issued involving about seventy persons, many of whom have been prominent in poli- tical circles. It is understood that among those involved are banks in Chicago, Omaha, and New York, through having cashed and bought the treasury certificates and bonds. Seven of the accused have already been taken into custody and charg- ed with counterfeiting the $500 dol lar war revenue stamps issued in 1918 and payable in January, 1924 The counterfeit stamps are declared to secret service men to be perfect examples of the originals. The fraud was discovered after $2O0,00O of the forged stamps had been cashed in the Chicago postoffice. It is estimated that in all over half million of the bogus stamps have been turned into money by the gang.
 Secret service operatives working on the case expressed the hope to- day that they would find the plates which had been used for making the commercials.
