SlffiE TtA BEST WAY TO TURN GRAY HAIR DARK Combined With Sulphur Makes Good Old-Fashioned Treatment. A good old fashioned remedy for darkening pray hair is a compound of Sage Toa and Sulphur. Many try to make this at home, hut those who wish to avoid the mussiness and trouble ran buv a bottle of the compound ready mixed by asking the druggist for Sulpho Sage. It costs only 50c. This is a dainty toilet preparation based on the old-fashioned Sage Tea and Sulphur formula with other helpful in gredients added. It is in no sense a dye. but merely causes nature to bring back each gray hair to a rich, dark shadq similar to what it was before turning. The color is restored so evenly that no one knows you are. using anything. New gray hairs are kept from showing. Sulpho-Sage removes dandruff too and gives yoiy hair a glossy luster and beauty that will make you look ten yesrs "younger. If you are gray, don't experiment with stains or powerful chemical com binations. but get the good old-fash ioned Sulpho-Sage to-day from George A. Gorgas. He recommends it to Har risburg ladies, and will refund full pr.lce to any dissatisfied purchasers. Advertisement. ASUSKMFNTS f -\ MA irCTIf WII.MER, VINCENT mAJLoIIV * APPELL, MGRS.

Butler, of this city, and five other members of his automobile party were injured yester day when the steering gear of their car broke neac-liere. 1,500 HEAR STIRRING PROHIBITION PLEA [Continue*! from First Page.] three largest liquor in i America. lam now one of the speak ers for the Anti-Saloon League of America. I changed sides because* i discovered tnat the liquor Interests were paying me to advocate the pas sage of a model license law and pay ing their political henchmen to see that the law did not pass." "They authorized me to advocate voting wet upon the promise of the passage of this model license law that the liquor interests insisted would les sen drunkenness, eliminate the dive, prevent minors procuring drinks and in general so regulate the liquor busi ness as to do axva.v with its evils of which the public justly complained— but when the public of Colorado, Ore gon, Washington, Alabama, Virginia and West Virginia had upon this promise of reformation by the passage of this law, voted wet, the same liquor Interests permitted me to draft the law, but forbade their supporters in the legislature to introduce it. "after another, there States re senting thus being fooled, took a new vote, and voted dry. "Four years of promises without a model license law being enacted in any citj' or State in the Union, convinced me that the liquor interests promised regulation before election, but thwart ed regulation after election. As to "Personal Liberty" "If the abolishment of liquor de prives the individual of his personal liberty," continued Major Smith, "such deprivation preserves the liberty of his family, for while he has the right to drink—maybe—his wife certainly has the right to associate with a sober husband. "He has a right to spend his own money, but she has the right to her own happiness; the price of a drink ranges from a dime to damnation—-, the drinker pays the dime and family' I pays the damnation. "One's family have the right to ex pect of him his best efforts and his !>ighest possible achievements, but one cannot climb the ladder of suc cess with one foot on a bar rail. "The poor man should eschew drinking, not so much on account of the expenditures of actual money, as because of the lessened efficiency, the loss of half days and days of work, the loss of his position, the destroy ing of h-is ambition, the blighting of his hopes and the deprivation of his wife and children of that tender care that is not given by one who is intoxi cated. "The workman cannot give to his children the advantages that can the rich, but by remaining sober, he can at least prevent the possibility of fath ering the child that is mentally defi cient; if he can't give his child wealth, he can at least prevent Its coming into the world unfit to tight life's battles because of its lather when he was sired. "Liquor never mot a workingman a job; liquor never helped him keep a job; liquor never increased his daily pay, nor helped him advance to a bet ter position. It may make him forget his sorrows for the moment, but it in creases his sorrows of to-morrow. "Maybe if the bosses quit drinking champagne, they would be better employers, maybe they would pay bet ter wages, maybe they would require shorter hours, for sobriety is as bene ficial to the boss as it is to the work man, and while the railroa ddirectors are Insisting that the train crews should remain away rrom the saloon, they should insist that the railroad president remain wayafrom the wine bottle; I am unwilling to risk my life behind a drinking train crew, and un willing to risk my money in the hands of a drunken railroad president. "Will prohibition increase taxes? At present, wo collect the tax from the sale of liquor and then use that tax in the vain endeavor to prevent the crimes that the liquor causes.' "Will it deprive the school fund of such aums as to make the education of our children impossible? At the present time, we tax liquor, for the school fund to educate the brains of our children and later sell these same children liquor to destroy the brains that the liquor tax educated—talk about a cat chasing Its tall! "if you are convinced that neither local option nor State-wide prohibition really prohibits, get out and work for constitutional prohibition. When Uncle Sam gets on the job, he will make this country so dry that a rat tlesnake bite won't dig up a drink be tween the Atlantic and the Pacific. "As special assistant United States attorney at Chicago in 1913 and 1914, I had many concrete examples of how Uncle Sam enforces the law—look at what Uncle Sam has done to opium and co
