SAGE TEA TURNS GRAY HAIR DARK It's Grandmother's Recipe to Bring Back Color and Luster to Hair That beautiful, even shade of dark, glossy hair can only be had by brew ing a mixture of Sage Tea and Sul phur. Your hair is your charm. It makes or mars the face. When it lades, turns gray or streaked. Just an application or two of Sage and Sulphur enhances its appearance a hundredfold. Don't bother to prepare the mix ture; you can get this famous old recipe improved by the addition- of other ingredients at a small cost, all ready for use. It is called Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Compound. This can always be depended upon to bring back the natural color and luster of your hair. Everybody uses "Wyeth's" Sage and Sulphur Compound now because it darkens so naturally and evenly that nobody can tell It has been applied. You simply dampen a sponge or soft brush with it and draw this through the hair, taking one small strand at a time; by morn ing the gray hair has disappeared, and after another application it be comes beautifully dark and appears glossy and lustrous. t Spongy, Inflamed Gura the forerunners of dread Pyorrhea!

And yet it contains no harsh grit or coarse abrasives to torture the healthy tissues. PYRODENTO has a smooth, pure Olive Oil base (not a soapy base, that washes away quickly) which is not only insoluble in the mouth juices, but is a tissue food as well. It clings to the blood cells for hours, having that rare distinction of giving one the sense of perfect mouth sanitation. * ~~ * • ~ TUESDAY EVENING, HARRJSBURG TELEGRAPH NOVEMBER 18, 1919. pressed his determination to pursue the policy of presenting American operus which he adopted on his tak ing management of the company some twelve years ago. "Cleopatra's Night" Is the title of the American opera scheduled for this seuson. The book, in two scenes, is based upon tl story by Theophlle Gautier while the music is by the American composer and conductor, Henry K. Hadley. A young Ameri can scene painter, Norman-Bel Ged des, has provided the stage setting. The Egyptian Queen will be impel - sonated by Mme. Frances Alda. Eight Americans are among more than a dozen new artists engaged for this season. In addition all the old favorites have been re-engaged. Whether another Kosa Ponselle has been found among the Americans re mains to be seen when each is put to the test of singing before a Metro politan audience. An interesting newcomer from Italy will be Mme. Gabriella Bezunzoni, a young drama tic contralto, who has won a high reputation in her native land and in Spanish America. During Christmas week there will be produced here for the first time on any stage an operatic version of Maeterlinck's "The Blue Bird." The music was composed by Albert Wolff, of the younger school, of French com posers. Mr. Wolff, who has been en gaged as French conductor of the opera company, to succeed Pierre Monteux, now with Boston Symphony orchestra, will conduct his work. STILL SELIi FROM CURB.

A few have become reason ably wealthy. Some are "reporting progress." The majority, however, like their fathers before them, in the United States, are trudging on life's way, over or around obstacles, with their carts hitched to stars that are flying rather lower than they were when the young men set out to "Americanize France." Most of the men really are pioneers because they are striking out for themselves, ulong new lines. As yet there is no organization to put these men in contact with their fellows for tho exchange of ldea3 and experi ences. Nearly nine thousand American Expeditionary Force men were re leased here and it is estimated a fourth of these have settled down to work here. The others are visit ing, sight-seeing or have gone home after a discouraging look at business prospects. Of the two thousand or so who are hard after French francs, ac cording to American businessmen here who know about the new ven tures, several houndred found em ploynfbnt with large concerns, chief ly American firms preparing to do business in the devasted regions. An other group took various small places to pay their way while studying. The majority of the men, it was said, started to make good by capitalizing American methods. Very many of them saw what they considered de fects in French life and made ready to furnish the supply, and, if neces sary, create the demand. Money Not Easy Most of them agree that easy money is not one of the natural re sources of France but a few have proved that it is. A negro made 125,000 francs buying and selling Army and Navy supplies at Brest. His case is vouched for by a well known American commercial execu tive. The most striking success report ed is that of "The Fox Trot Kings of Paris," as they term themselves, Gerald Kiley, who drove the Chicago Press Club ambulance, and Harold Fitch of St. Paul, who was at the wheel of one of Mrs. W. K. Vander bllt's ambulances and later went to the front. Kiley and Fitch, the former said, got their start over here when tho wife of an American banker in busi ness here "pressed 500 francs on us" when they played In a three-man Jazz band at a dance she gave. They organized a Wilson Welcome ball at a leading hotel when the President i arrived In Paris and netted more than 10,000 francs on the affair. This success, they said, they often duplicated at "The Dixie Club" dances they organized with an ad mission charge of 20 francs a person. In Ice Crcun Business Knowing that "good things" must not be overworked, the men took over the Ice cream making equip ment of the Y. M. C. A., which has a capacity of a thousand gallons an hour and late in October began wholesaling "Dixie Ice cream," cutting the market price fifty to a hundred per cent. They said they invested 100,000 francs in the ven ture. Some of the most interesting of the American business experiences here are of those men who married French girls. Three of these are farming east of Paris, "making more money than they ever thought pos 'sible in the United States," their business advisor said. One man mar ried into a dairy shop. Another re turned to his trade of tailoring in the same way. Scores of American boys arc in business with their French fathers-in-law. - "Rebuilt" typewriters, familiar to Americans, have been introduced to* the French by Lieutenant J. L. Me- Cann, of Tuscaloosa, Ala., and George E. Howard, of Pasadena, Cal. Their difficulty is too much business. With typical aggressiveness they are buy ing American used machines from French dealers to sell to other French dealers. Meantime, Howard said, they are preparing to open "the American stenographic bureau" because, he said, an American busi nessman is up a blind alley trying to find a public stenographer or to get out his correspondence when an l "English spoken" variety can be lo- I cated. Isadore Court, who was a paper hanger, boldly set himself up in the decorating business in a fashionable suburb. Lieutenant Stevens L. Taylor, of Memphis, began as an import and cx> port broker but became a merchan dise broker while awaiting better shipping facilities and more famil iarity with the mysteries of French trading. Harry L. Drucker, a newspaper photographer, returned to his trade, adding commercial work. Importing and exporting, accord ing to an American executive in that line, attracted scores of the men but most of them gave it up as a bad job when they ran Into the mess of intricacies, delays and financial diffi culties for the beginner. One man who wanted to bring in carloads of automobiles and bicycle tires turned defeat into success by opening a tire sale and repair shop. Another one with the same idea is awaiting arrival of a real quick re pair and steam vulcanizing plant to give Paris a taste of fast work. He said virtually all tube repairs hero now are made with cement patches instead of vulcanizing and take a week instead of an hour. "Many men," an American officer still In service said, "are working temporary good things while seek ing real openings. The favorite method is getting hold of Army can teen goods and reselling them to the French at several times cost. Many men make as much* as 200 francs a week. Newspapermen seem to have land ed on their feet most quickly. Near ly all of those who stayed are de veloping some 'idea" outside of of fice hours. Several thrifty discharged soldiers made temporary wealth buying "dol lar checks" sold to service men at a rate lower than the dollar was quoted. One man, formerly on "The Stars and Stripes" is credited with making a small fortune in that way. Army pathos and bathos, put in book form by Sergeant Melvin Ryder, of Schenfectady, because a best-seller and passed the 300,000 mark. Ideas for great wealth are being mulled over by a number of men and may result in the establishment ofc a chain of hotels and restaurants along the battlefront towns. One young man who missed the American small boy "shine" is negotiating a lease for a shoe-shining parlor. As an American businessman who came in contact with many of the discharged men put it, "there aren't any gold dollars in the streets but there is a lot of stiver scattered about that may be picked up If the Ameri can boys will look for it through The French spectacles. French can't be Americanized but there is a lot of good in our ways that they need and will accept if on our side we meet their views and respect their customs." Northumberland Lawyers Discuss Liquor Status Sunbury, Pa., Nov. 18.—At a spe cial meeting of the Northumberland County Bar Association yesterday to discuss the liquor laws and situa tion it seemed to be the general opinion that there is a remote pos sibility of the United States Supreme Court declaring the general prohi bition act unconstitutional.
