IN HI DARK WITH SAGE TEA If Mixed with Sulphur It Darkens Gray Hair So Naturally Nobody Can Tell I T J / . J jfiM' - aif X N The old-time mixture of Sage Tea and Sulphur for darkening gray, streaked and faded hair is grand mother's treatment, and folks are again using it to keep their hair a g' od, even color, which is quite sensi ble, as we are living In an age when a youthful appearance is of the greatest advantage. 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 vliat delights the ladles 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.

Station FRIDAY EVENING. WORK ON FEDERAL BLDG. PROGRESSES "Into Post Office by Christmas 1916" Is Slogan of Con -1 tractor on Job Under the efficient methods enV ployed by James J. Molloy, contractor in charge of the remodeling of the Post Office and additions in Federal Square, the work is going along smoothly, and the prospects are that the new annex will be ready for oc cupation well before the time limit mentioned in the contract. Instead of "Out of the trenches by Christmas," the slogan of the men in charge of this work may well be "Into the Post Office by Christmas, 1916." The work is necessarilv slowed up by reason of the fact that brick and granite samples must be sent from practically every quarry in the United States in order to make sure that the present material will be matched as closely as it is possible to match It. The contractor is trying to give the local dealers and subcontratcors the preference, all things being equal, and a special attempt is being made to avoid discommoding the people in the olttc-es above. The force now working will be increased from time to time as the orders for materials are filled. The present force has been on the job since the arrival of Contractor Molloy in the middle of Xovember. IM)oseft)e)T<si ORPHGUM To-night—Winthrop Ames Presents the Little Theater New York Success, "A Pair of Silk Stockings." Thursday, matinee and night, December 23—"Hello Girls." Saturday (Christmas), matinee and night, December 25—"At the Old Cross Koads." "A PAIR OF SILK STOCKINGS" Direct from an all season's engage ment at Winthrop Ames' Little Theater in New York City, "A Pair of iSilk Stockings," Cyril Harcourt's delightful comedy of English society life comes to the Orpheum to-night. Hector Turnbull, dramatic critic of the New York Tribune, in reviewing the play on the opening night of its all sea son's run at the Little Theater in that city last year, gave an excellent idea of the impression created by the play in the following: "Not only has the playwright drawn a faithful and en gaging pictures of that much maligned type, English gentlefolk, but he has I handled a delicate situation with such a brave show of disarming British wholesomeness that our familiar Frenchy, bedridden farces appears sad stuff in comparison. Articles of wo man's attire, generally completely con cealed in comedy and vulgarly ilauntel In farce, are disclosed to a delighted au dience, fulfilling a purpose both utili tarian and artistic.—Advertisement. WOULDN'T YOU LIKE TO BUY YOUR RED CROSS STAMPS FROM "THE BETTING BETTYS?" After you have seen "The Betting Bettys," the dandy girlie musical com edy that is heading the vaudeville bill at the Majestic this week, wouldn't you like to dig down deep in your pocket book and buy some Red Cross stamps from these pretty damsels as they saunter up and down the aisles? This Is a little added stunt to their daily routine, and yesterday the pretty girls of the attraction did remarkably well in their sales. All during the rest of the week "The Betting Bettys" will continue their little stunt and accord ing to the start they have had, they will likely vie for honors with the "Honey Girls," who sold lots of them at the Orpheum last Christmas. A comedy gem of this offering is the ecentric line of jest and song handed out by Rock well and Wood. These clever funsters are original from the getaway and they are scoring the laughing hit of the bill. Other splendid Keith turns of the bill include Gwynne and Gossette, Billy El wood and Helene and Emilon. Inter esting moving picture features are in cluded in the program also.—Advertise ment. "MARTYRS OP THE ALAMO" AND "SAVED BY WIRELESS" ON ONH BILL The pretentiousness of the Colonial's current Triangle program, together with the genuine merit of both fea tures, is certainly proving to be several hours of the best entertainment thea tergoers can possibly find anywhere in town. The excellent drama, another Griffith triumph, entitled, "The Martyrs of the Alamo," is historical and roman tic, dealing with incidents based on ac tual history in the early days of Mexico. The second feature of the same offering is entitled, "Saved by Wireless," a Mack Sennett thriller, that stars Mack Swain and Chester Conklin, and is as exciting in some places as It is amusing In others. Intrigue, espionage, hair breadth escapes, an automobile and mo torcycle race and a blown up yacht all figure in this exciting production.—Ad vertisement. GERALDIKE FARRAR IN "CARMEN," RETURNS TO THE REGENT TO DAY AND TOMORROW An event that has been anxiously awaited for by the photoplay fans is the return to-day and to-morrow of Geraldlne Farrar, the world's greatest prima donna, in the original plcturlza tlon of "Carmen," at the Regent. "Carmen" is one of the greatest char acterizations of Miss Farrar, the prima donna of the Metropolitan Opera Com pany, and the production stands In a class by itself as a remarkable inter pretation of one of the most famous roles in operatic literature. The film possesses photo-dramatic possibilities such as held by few operas. Miss Far rar declared that through the medium of the screen she is reaching an audi ence of uncounted thousands and hun dreds of thousands who, perhaps, have beard of her. but who, because of the limitations of opera and concert have never heard her sing or saw her act. The Lasky Company paid Miss Farrar at the rate of $2.00 a minute for the time she actually was engaged In mak ing the picture. The "Carmen" musio will be played on our four-manual pipe organ by Professor Wallace and Miss Merchant, and this will be a big treat in itself.—Advertisement. BEATRICE MICHELENA IN «»U,T4- TION NELL" AT THE VICTORIA TODAY ONLY The photo-play, "Salvation Nell," Is based on Edward Sheldon's successful drama of the same name and clearly traces Its source of Inspiration to "All Sorts and Conditions of Men" written by the late Walter Besant on the topic of early days of the Salva tion Army in London, where it was founded in the 60's by the late General Booth. Booth set out to rescue the sub merged tenth in London's vast East End—cesspool df crime, poverty, dis ease, all mostly caused by drink. "Salvation Nell." the modern play, il lustrates conditions in New York which Booth saw and started to grap nle with in the Old World, long before Mr. Sheldon produced his play. Still every credit Is due Mr. Sheldon. For long Palvatlonlsm was Jeered at. Its professors were cuiTed and stoned. The older rellglonaries hated it. That's what they all do when any thing new and progressive comes along. Don't blame them; it's human nature. Beatrice Mlehelena has the part of her life In that of the adventurous Nell, whn after all her vicious troubles and lurid vicissitudes Is redeemed by the Army. The photoplay makes a wide appeal and Is very well and care fully product with a strong support ing cast.

"Last of all," says the writer, "in I the revival of methods and instru- ] ments used in the warfares of medie- j val times and even of antiquity comes word that pigeons, the carriers of in telligence In times of stress in remote eras, are used as photographers of the positions of the enemy.

"But modern Ingenuity has added something to the older roles of the carrier pigeon—and has turned him into a photographer. The only au thenticated reports of the pigeon's use for this purpose have been of a German Invention, some of the pigeons having been brought down i behind the allied lines. Whether the allies have tried the same means of getting photographs of German en trenchments and troops is a, matter of conjecture." MONUMENT UUII/r TO AN APPLE TREE Perhaps one of the most curious monuments in existence has recently been built In Ontario by Canadians. The farmers have Just erected a mar ble pillar to mark the sit on which grew a famous apple tree. More than a century ago a settler DECEMBER 17, 1915. in Canada named Mcintosh, when clearing a space tn make a home In the wilderness, discovered among a number of wild apple trees one which bore fruit so wall that he' cultivated it and named it "Mcintosh red. The apple became famous; seeds and cuttings were distributed to all parts of Canada, so that now the Mc intosh red flourishes wherever apples grow In the great Dominion. In 1896, the original tree from which this enor mous ItuuUx Bfir&oi: hw lxUured by. Are; but it continued to bear fruit un til Ave years ago. Then, after fifteen years, It died, and the grateful farm ers have raised a marble pillar In honor of the tree which has done so much for the fruit growing Industry, of their land. The story of tliis apple tree illus trates the African proverb that though you can count the apples on one tree, you can never count the trees In one apple.—January. Popular ~Sciercfi Monthly,
