Whenever I am asked for meth
cd of restoring gray hair, I invar-
iably recommend nothing more or
less than a mixture of good old sage
tea and sulphur Common garden
sage, when properly brewed and
mixed with sulphur and little alco-
mol, makes a wonderful recolorer of
gray hair. You can either prepare
the mixture at home yourself, or
more conviently, buy it already pre-
pared and ready for use. All drug
gists carry it in the form of Wyeth's
Sage and Sulphur, and since the
cost is only 75c a bottle, there is
really no need to prepare it yourself.
You simply nloisten a comb or
soft brush with it and draw it
through your hair, one strand at
time. One application banishes the
gray and one or two more COM
pletely restores your hair to its orig
inal color, so evenly. so naturally
that no one can possibly tell you
have used it. Everyone who tries
Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur tells me
he, or she, gets perfect results, SO
I don't hesitate to pass the secret
on to others.

TOURISTS FACE
WIDE RANGE IN
PRICES OF GAS
Cost Varies 10 to 29 Cents
a Gallon Over u. S.,
Survey Shows.
BY JOSEPH S. WASNEY,
limited Press STAR CorreSnondap+

WASHINGTON, March 1.-THE
spring tourist season is about to
open and motorists will find about
fifty varieties of gasoline prices in
existence as they travel over the
country.
Statistics compiled by the Ameri-
can Automobile Association for the
United Press today showed gasoline
varies in price 10 to 20 cents a gall
lon in different localities and the
gas tax ranges from 6 cents in South
Carolina to cents in Wisconsin.
Only two states, Illinois and New
York have no gas tax. It was esti-
mated motorists would use more
than 14,000,000,0O0 gallons of gaso-
line this year and pay tax of more
than $300,000,000 for the fuel.
There are now 22,000,000 pleasure
cars in the United States and H.
100000 of them will be used for
touring on trips during the open
season.
1t was estimated each car will car
ry four vacationists or pleasure
seekers and one-third of the nation
will take its recreation on wheels
during 1929.
The average days run for a mot
orist is now 234 miles, compared
with about 100 ten years ago. Good
roads and smoother riding cars
lengthen the distance.

does not make q Pollyanna hero out
Of lad who became a criminal to
make his daily bread. Kif, his en-
tire name being Archibald Vicar,
had fought in many a stiff battle
in the World war, often being in
jured, but when the big event was
over London was not a large enough
city to find him living job.
Xii just naturally became Grim
inal. He had soul, but he never
studied the problem that it was all
right to fight for society, but that
he could not steal from it.
Kif could have been a lovable and
an honest citizen if he had asso-
ciated with that class. He always
yielded to the beauty of the country,
of the sun and of the moon. And
just as surely he yielded to the in
fluences Of war and crime. War and
crime--is there any difference?
Never in my career of reading
have I been SO upset in permitting
a character of fiction to be hanged
by the neck until dead as I was
with Kif.
The lad had such an end coming
to him. He had killed wealthy
man in that mans own mansion
while attempting to rob it. Kif
didn't mean to kill him, he just shot
in self-defense but the theory didn't
work.
Ann, fine girl and a human one,
had these thoughts when she said
goodby to Kif in his cell just before
the sentence was carried out: But
this is the end of everything for
him. Going out, like fame
Then the author permits Ann to
think as follows: Tomorrow there
would be no Kif, nor ever any more.
Finished. This boy, alive and low
able. The end of him. Nothing
any more. God, how awful
So you see that this author, like
Eugene O'Neill, permits his char
acters to use the mental aside. In
this novel this system adds even
greater charm and keeps the story
from using any possible varnish.
I admire this author because she
does not at any time permit the
reader to become emotionally in IA
vor of Kif's going wrong. Kif was
not d crook at heart, his soul was
too beautiful, but the lad would al
ways walk in the same direction
that the people he was with were
going. Poor Kif, he could not wall.
alone.
The author has a powerful style
and her insight into human nature,
both masculine and feminine, is
most keen. As half of the book is

SPEED VICTIMS
Ex-CITY men
Bible and Traub Lived Here
for Many Years.

Speeds victims at Daytona Beach,
Fla, Wednesday: Lee Bible, driver
of the car, and Charles Traub,
Pathe News cameraman, we're for
mer residents Of indianapolis.
Bible, who died in attempting to
set a new worlds record, was one
of the city's leading mechanics in
the days when buggies we're re-
yamped into motor cars.
Traub was, born and reared in
Indianapolis. He was the son of
Charles G. Traub, former Indian
apoliS druggist, who now owns a
pharmacy at st. Petersburg, Fla.
The elder Traub's last store in this
city was at 1873 North Garfield ave-

devoted to Kits doings in the war
I am prepared to say that as far
as I know this is the biggest piece
of human writing that has come out
of the war.
The mental side permits the read
er to know Kif even better, because
his thoughts on his companions are
recorded just as theirs.
I have the sincere conviction that
this lad Kif will be the most dis
cuSsed character of all the new
fiction for the next six months, and
maybe longer.
Xii" is gorgeous entertainment,
human and SO big. 1t will give you
several grand and glorious readings
at home and a lot of discussion.
SO meet Kif, although you must
part with him forever.

SALES MANAGER FIR FORD PLEASED WITH
 SURVEY IN TERRITORY

On his first trip to Alaska in the interests of the Ford Motor Company of Seattle, for which he is the sales manager, Joseph J. Hague, arrived in Seward Fri day from the Interior and on Sat urday morning departed for Moose Pass in company with the local Agent, Charles Lechner, proprle- tor of the Seward Machine Shop, who was deSirous of showing MT. Hague one of the finest highways in the Territory They returned yesterday and MT. Hague agreed that it was just that, one of the finest pieces of road construction it has been his pleasure to ride over while in the North.
 MT. Hague motored over the Richardson Highway from Valdez to Fairbanks, thence over the new Steese Highway to Circle. He spoke in glowing terms of admir- ation of these road systems and of others he had journeyed over awhile in the Interior The Alaska Road Commission and the Bureau of Public Roads are performing wonderful road construction work, he said which, evidently, is Alas ka's most crying need-more roads
 With respect to the Moose Pass Highway he pointed out that no ! doubt the Bureau of Public Roads realizes more fully than others the need of connecting up with Kenai and Seward and in due time, he added, the depart ment will do so. But the road-bed, and the scenics in the Pass, real ly astonished him and he com pared the highway with dirt roads in the states saying he had not seen better one anywhre.
 Saturday night MT. Hague and Mr. Lechner enjoyed the hospi- 7 tality of Mr. and Mrs. Hershey, at the Hershey quartz mine at Hope, which visit was keenly en- 5oyed.
 The present trip was occupied in making survey of Alaska conditions and a visit to all Ford agencies. At every opportunity he conferred with company repre- sentatives and expressed himself as being very much pleased with sales. Particularly so with the Seward agency which he describ- ed as probably the best equipped in the entire Territory; this, without any reflection on others (which he also found to be in excellent shape to handl thier ever growing business
 He requested that photographs of the Seward Agency be forward ed to hi min Seattle for publica- tion in the Ford Magazine.

North Adams, Mass, Sept. 4 (P>- One of the most serious forest fires in recent years today was sweeping unchecked through the parched and mountainous district to the north of here where no rain of consequence has fallen for months.
 The flames last night crossed the state line into Vermont and were reported burning in q northwestern ly direction toward Bennington, in that state.
 Two hundred fighters, including all available members of the rcau- lar fire departments of North Adams, and Williamstown, in this state, and volunteers from these and nciehboring Vermont communi- ties. Were battling the blaze along q four mile front.
 As far as could be ascertaincd no buildings had yet been burned or menaced but veteran forest fire fighters said the blaze was the worst in ten years Doubt was expressed whether it could be brought under control without the aid of rain.

SAYS MARRIED MEN

Stanford Psychologist Finds Sexes Have Each Others Traits

New Haven, Sept 4 Married life, if given time enough. tends to bring the male mind a little closer to the feminine type the ninth In ternational Congress on Psychology was informed today.
 This finding was presented in a paper written by pr. Lewis M. Ter man of Stanford university His in Nestigation dealt with "SeX Differ cnces primarily non-intcllectual," such as interests, emotional reac- tions, preferences and aversions. One purpose was to find what envir- onments if any, help determine mental masculinity and feminity.
 A masculinity-femin test of 90S items or traits was arranged. The paper summarized some results with out any details.
 There are few men" it stated perhaps 10 in a thousand, who are more feminine in these traits than the average woman, and about the same number Of women who are more masculine than the average man.
 "F,n vironmental influences upon masculine-f traits are clear ly in evidence. particularly the eff foctS of excessive mothcring' or fathering,' Such influences are in in dividual cases so marked as to raise the question whether the observed masculine-fe differences have any basis in native endowment.
 "There is little or no marital SC lection with respect to masculine feminine traits, but there is some evidence that married life tends in time to bring the male spouse some what closer to the feminine type"
 He found in certain groups such as football players, excessively high" masculine scores. In other groups he found low scores.

Anything can happen on Oak street and if this is doubted all one has to do is to ask Officer William O'Day. He will verify if.
 Early last evening the officer was patrolling the street looking for this and that and the other thing. At an intersection he slowed his motor cycle down for on the corner was a large crowd.
 When the policeman came. they dispersed. In the center of the gathering were two girls, about 13 years old. pummcling each other with their fists.
 Theoretically they kept at their business until one looked mp and saw the officer. Hostilitics ceased at once, and faster than any two boys caught in the same embarrassing position. they fled up the street.
