Nowadays, though, we don't have the troublesome task of gathering the sage and the mussy mixing at home. All drug stores sell the ready-to-use product called "Wyeth's Sage and Sul phur Compound" for about 50 cents a bottle. It is very popular because nobody can discover it has been ap plied. Simply moisten, your comb or a soft brush with it and draw this through your hair, taking one small strand at a time; by morning the gray hair disappears, but what delights the ladies with Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur is that, besides beautifully darkening the hair after a few applications, it also produces that soft luster and ap pearance of abundance which is so attractive; besides, prevents dandruff, itching scalp and falling hair.—Ad vertisement.

STUDY THE BIBLE [Continued Front First Pace] me, in my father's store south of Huntingdon," said Dr. Brumbaugh, "one morning the village doctor came in for his mail, as his custom was, and it happened that on that particu lar morning no one was in the room but myself and the doctor. 1 placed on the counter his morning mail, and just as he reached to take it he paused and looked into my boyish face and said, "Martin, 1 have known your fam ily in this valley for three generations. I never knew one of them to be drunk. Don't you forget the family record." I It. was' the finest temperance sermon [ that was ever preached into my boy- I hood spirit, and I made the promise | then to myself, which, bless God, I want to keep to my dying day—'l shall not break the family record." Sermon to S. S. Teachers His sermon, of course, was of espe cial interest to the Sunday school teacher. He pointed out that the teachings of Christ were different from the philosophies of Greece and Rome in that his appeal was to the will of his followers and not to the feelings or to the reason alone. The services were opened by Mr. Andubar, a Porto Rican missionary, whom Dr. Brumbaugh knew on the island during his stay there installing the American system of education. Neither gentleman knew the other was to be present, and the delight at meet ing again after a period of many years was mutual. In his opening remarks Mr. Andnhar lauded Dr. Brumbaugh for his splendid work In Porto Rico. Teacher in Pulpit Dr. Brumbaugh took his text front the concluding part of the seventh chapter of St. Matthew, immediately; following the Sermon on the Mount: j "And it came to pass that when Jesus had ended these sayings the peo ple were astonished at his doctrine, for He taught them ns one having au thority and not as the scribes." Continuing he said: "Nearly twenty centuries ago this record was set down and has been read throughout the enlightened world to this day. The remarkable tiling about lit can only be appreciated when you stop to remember that at the time that Jesus Christ walked out of the sun light of God's abiding place into this world of sin, and lifted up His ban ners of hope and help, there were two other great contending forces for the control of the spiritual thought of the l ace. "'"or more than three centuries be fore ills coming, over in Athens, in the great capital of the Athenian culture, philosopher after philosopher had taught the people of the world, and just before the conting of the Christ in the Imperial capital of the province in which He was born, another great contending system of philosophy had claimed right to be regarded as the guidance of the human spirit. Christ's Appeal to the Will "The difference between the Greek | and the Roman philosopher was thin: -That a Greek philosopher appealing to the people, or teaching the people, always rested his argument upon the logic of his position. If you read the great Greek orations, you will find at the conclusion of each and all of them this general statement, 'having proven this and that to be so, it becometh us, O Athenians, rightly to heed these ut terances,' resting the argument upon the logic of the situation. If you turn to the Roman orators and the Roman speakers and teachers, you will find that the appeal was not to the reason, but to the emotions of the people. Here in this sermon on the mount, ut tered by the great Teacher of the world, there Is no appeal to the reason of the hearers, nor to the feelings of the hearers, but to the will of the peo | pie. 'Whosoever,' said He, at the conclusion of this remarkable sermon, | 'heareth these words of Mine and Idoeth them. 1 will liken unto a wise man; and whosoever heareth thepe words of Mine, and doeth them not. 1 will liken him unto a foollsli man.' "The difference between the two be ing that one did and the other did not respond to the teaching of the Master. Basis of Civilization "Here you have in the teachings of Jesus Christ the basis of all our mod ern civilization, the appeal to the will of the people and the fundamen tally important doctrine that life is measured not by one's emotions, nor yet by one's thoughts, but by one's deeds. The great Teacher understood that a man might feel right and he! might think right, and yet he might j not do right. "Plato's report in his < 'rito of the | teachings of Socrates makes the greati sophist say, 'and is it conceivable, '> | Ce'bes, that any man knowing the right j should fail to do it 7' The Master | rests the ethics of His christian I • 'hurch not upon the dogma of the! church, but upon the character of its [ membership, and we cannot be good Christians simply by subscribing to a faith of a formulated dogma or creed; we can only be good Christians when we do the works of righteousness and live as He taught us to live. Story With a Moral "Just after the Napoleonic wars, when the cantons of Switzerland were suffering from the invasion of their enemies, the soldiers stricken doivn, their widows and orphans suffering for bread and shelter, an old teacher of! God, a man who had in him the very | spirit of Christ, walked the hillsides of the Swiss cantons and carried com fort and help to the poor and suffer ing. on these journeys, not infre quently, IK was accompanied by his little grandson, eight years of age, and one, day when they had traveled far and visited many and saw much to niuk» the heart bleed, the little fellow, toddling by the side of his pious grandfather said, as they went In the twilight to their simple home: 'Grand pa, when I am a man I shall take the side of the poor.' It was the cry of a boy's heart in answer to the suffer ing of his kind. "Twenty years after that, up in the mountains of Switzerland, at the little village of Neuhof, and later again at] Stanz, he gathered the orphans and the beggars of Switzerland into his simple house; he put the children to bed that he might with his own hands mend their little garments when they were torn and tattered. lie cooked their food, he bathed their bodies, he taught them. lie was the supreme comforter of that neighborhood. It was said by his biographer .that he lived like a beggar that he might teach beggars how to live like men. it was the. most Christ-like service done in all Europe. That was Henry Pestalozzi, the founder of all your modern educational enterprises, the founder of the great normal school first at Yverdon and later at liurgdorf, In Switzerland, out of which has come the cry throughout the world, both in your public schools and in your Sun day schools, that the people who teach the truth to the childhood of the race must be splendidly trained for that service. He made his decision as a boy, he kept it as a man. The Result of Purpose "It is said that v.'hen Abraham I,lncoln was once the candidate for a nominal office In Illinois, he said in a little broadside which he passed to the people of the country, 'I have been i deprived of the opportunities of a good education, but I believe in education, and if ever the opportunity presents itself I shall consider it a privilege as well as a duty to further every ed ucational privilege and opportunity for my people. Twenty-three years after that, when this country was in the throes of a mighty civil war, and that man was the President of the United States, he paused In that bloody conflict to sign the .Worrell land art. establishing our great State Agricultural College in this Union. "One of the marvels of this day con cerning Jesus Christ is how did He live up to his thirtieth year? What j did lie do?. Where was He? Howl silent the record is! Vet anybody reading His subsequent utterances well may know that all those preparatory years were crowded with study and of meditation and of prayer and of petition to His Father for wisdom and understanding, so that when He came as a teacher, licensed by the law of His race He spnke as never man spake, because he had made supreme preparation to do a splendid thing. Americans Too Much in a Hurry "The trouble with us is here in this American rush life of ours we want in. a week or two to be trained to | live all our lives, and we chafe un der the delays of preparation. "We want to (E?et Into the game, and half of us come in so raw land green and useless that we fall to |do anything worth recording. If you want to be a teacher in the Sun |day school, if you want to be a (teacher anywhere, if you want to be ja business man or a good mother or l any other supreme worthy thing in this world, let me entreat of you in j.the name of the example of the Christ I of the world, prepare to do that thing | well. There is also this thought—if | there is power In one's preparation to serve, power in one's presentation of the truth, surely there is power in the personality of the teacher. The great | Christ was so gentle that men did not at lirst know His .splendid strength. tie was so kind that men scarcely understood how firm He was. I There was something in His person ality that made people love Him. "The purpose in a man's life saves | him in the trials and tribulations of ! life, and steadies him to do, just as the purpose of the Christ steadied Him to do the righteous thing to the very last. It is all a matter of put ting yourself wholly into His divine care and under his splendid teaching. "Make Religion Supreme l'orce" "May we somehow or other as a great people here in this splendid Commonwealth of Pennsylvania strive by our purpose and our preparation and our presentation nnd our person-] alit.v to make religion the supreme di rective force of all the citizenship of this great Commonwealth of ours.'' Following the benediction everyone in the congregation was given an op portunity to greet Dr. Brumbaugh, "the [man who some day may be President of these United States." | Many hard-fisted grizzled railroad ers who run between liarrlsburg. II Philadelphia and Altoona. shook the hand of Dr. Brumbaugh and there were tears in the eyes of many as they told the preacher of the morning "it was the best sermon they ever heard." Dr. Brumbaugh met hundreds of : his railroad friends who have moved . to this city from Huntingdon, one old man with silver hair walked up to him : and said in a voice' that shook despite ■ his efforts to control himself. "Do you • remember me, Martin?" Remembers Old Carpenter "Do I remember you?" said l)r. Brumbaugh. "Do you think I'd forget , you, Davy?" It was Davy Unger, a carpenter, of , Mechanicsburg, who built Dr. Brum s baugh's house at Huntingdon many > years ago. The aged carpenter came I all the way from Mechanicsburg to hear his old friend and employer talk "I'm sorry all the boys on the road can't hear you talk, doctor," said i "Bill" Harding, an old Pennsylvania LI Railroad engineer. II "Huh," grunted another old veteran >I of the rails, who was just shaking 11 hands with the doctor. "If they did, I I'm afraid he'd get a hundred instead , of ninety per cent, of the railroad i vote." : McCormlck on "Campaign Issues" \ Vance C. McCormick, Democratic candidate for Governor, spoke in the ' afternoon at the Fifth Street Church . and Glfford Pinchot, Washington party \ man for United States senator, made ' the address in the evening before a . comparatively small audience. Mr. McCormick's talk was political, ' | his remarks being based on what he termed "the moral Issues of the cam- I palgn." The issues, he said, are ' whether the people In official station •I are nllve to the demands of the public [ not only in service, but in common ' honesty. Care for the weak, the square 1 deal and the carrying of conscience into dally life are what the peoole of the State demand and what thev will have, he declared. TOO MUCH DUMPED ON PUBLIC SCHOOL Dr. Schaeffer Writes Report Brist ling With Unusual Remarks and Comments About It Dr. Nathan C. Schaeffer, State Super intendent of Public Instruction, ob jects to unloading upon the schools every problem that needs solution and handles the teaching of Rnglish and the condition of the little red school house without gloves in his annual re port on educational matters in the commonwealth. It reviews things up to July 6 last and is one of the most readable State documents put out in many a day. Dr. Schaeffer proceeds to comment upon certain latter-day tendencies in very plain terms. In the course of his remarks he says: "Perhaps the teachers should feel complimented by the number of problems which are shied at the schools for solution. The Bible, the ballot, the flag, fires, forests, con servation of our natural resources, the high price of living, peace and war, trades and industry, agriculture, hor ticulture. commerce and home eco nomics, manual training, moral train ing. religious education, music, gym nastics. swimming, dancing, social cen ter activities, health, sanitation, vac cination, medical Inspection, sex hy giene, motherhood and a host of other problems too numerous to mention are handed over to the teacher after the church, the newspaper, the com munity, the police, the Y. M. C. A. and the Y. W. C. A. have failed to furnish a satisfactory solution." Kqually trenchant Is the manner in which the superintendent discusses holidays: "Whenever a new idea strikes a reformer, the schools are asked to lift a collection or to set apart a day for the promulgation of that idea be cause It is apparent that every home can be reached most easily through the schools." Too Many Holidays A round dozen holidays are men tioned In addition to "authors' days, fair days and other special days" as "permitted to interfere with the regu lar routine of the school and to divert the teachers' energies." on he says "It should not bo assumed that the child's attention may be drawn PAIN IN THE BACK Do not worry about a pain In your back. The worry will do you more harm than the pain. The serious dis eases of the kidneys seldom or never produce such pains, while the cause of most backache is muscular rheuma tism. which is painful but never fatal. Lumbago is a form of muscular rheu j mutism, so is stiff neck.. Sufferers from any form of mus cular rheumatism affecting the Joints should keep the general health at the highest standard by the use of a non alcoholic tonic like Dr. Williams' Pink Pills, and eat good, nourishing food without too much meat. Proper nu trition and good blood are the best means of fighting rheumatism. Medi cines do not control the disease dl- I rectly, but a well-nourished system will often throw It off. Rheumatism quickly thins the blood. Dr. Williams' Pink Pills act directly on the blood and as they build it up and strengthen the system there is an Increased resist ance to the rheumatic poisons. In this way many rheumatic sufferers have found complete recovery. A book, "Building Up the Blood," which tells about the treatment of rheumatism.

The growth of vocational, industrial and agricultural education is praised without stint, the activities of the bu reaus in charge of such work being mentioned and praise given to many places, notably Altoona, Wilkes-Barre and YVilllamsport. As to English Then Dr. Schaeffer turns aside from this line to discuss English, saying: "There is more adverse criticism of the teaching of English than of any other phase of school work. The col leges blame the high schools and the high schools berate the lower schools for sending them pupils unable to use good Knglish. The superintendents say that the teaching of English In the high schools, which get their teachers from the colleges, will be Improved as soon as the colleges improve their teaching of English. The claim is made that, inasmuch as the teachers of graded schools are largely the prod uct of the high school, there will be better teaching in the grades as soon as the high schools improve their teaching. • » » Q Ur ora | language is moulded by those with whom we associate and our written language is shnped by the literature we read and study. Prom this law the children can not escape, and more practice in the art of expressing thought is needed in all the schools from the elementary grades to the college and the uni versity." In another place the doctor says that the use of plurals, pronouns, ir regular verbs and punctuation marks is neglected through emphasis given to parsing, diagraming and analysis of sentences. A plea Is made for study of Penn sylvania history, the superintendent remarking: "The state has a para mount interest in preparation for citi zenship. No one is fit to cast a ballot If he is ignorant of the origin and history of our free institutions."
