Entered at the poßtwrV j 1a Decatur, ind'- «, sa ectcnd Mr. Spencer, floor leader of the legislature, announces that six party' measures will be passed within two I weeks. The list includes the primary measure, public utilities iaw, good roads, amendment to the corrupt prac-, tice act, a registration bill and the Tingle inheritance tax law. That would sure be some record.

President-elect Wilson, it is announced, believes in cutting one pie at a time and will first devote his attention to legislation of importance, including the tariff, before any jobs are handed out. While it’s a little severe on the fellows who are looking for positions, the action will meet the approval of many who think there ar<s other important duties for a president than selecting the men to hold jobs. A Washington special dispatch to the Chicago Tribune announces that Vice President and Mrs. Marshall will occupy a suite of rooms in a hotel in Washington and that they will not participate in social activities to any particular extent. It really looks as if the Washington society folks will have to leave out (he Wilsons and the Marshalls in their big parties during the coming four years.—Columbia City Post. The O. A. R. post at Delphi in a recent meeting adopted resolutions, presenting the name of A. B. Crampton as a candidate for the very honored position, department commander of Indiana, and nothing could happed which would better please the newspaper fraternity of Indiana. Mr. Crampton is one of the men who fought four years for his country, entering the army as a color bearer, and was mustered out as a first lieutenant. He was a fighting soldier and for a third of a century or more has been one of the leading newspaper men of Indiana. We with the others in the print-shops would appreciate the honor if it should come to Comrade Crampton. ____________ — GOOD LOT FOR SALE.

W ith the invitations are given dainty little socks of vari-col-ored silk, whose purpose is explained in the rhyme that accompanies them: j This little sock we send to you is not for you to wear, Please multiply your size by 2 and place within with care. Just twice the number of your own, w r e hope it is immense; So if you wear a number 10, you owe us twenty cents This little gift we ask of you is hardly any trouble, And if you only have one foot, we’ll surely charge you double. h You cannot know how much we need 1 the help that you can give. Your giving will be blest of God and i help our cause to live. For unto those whose feet are shod and ever swift to run, i Our deeds of love and mercy sent the Master says “Well done.” ■" ■ I Charles E.

t GRAY, FADED HAIR, OR BKAUTIr FUL, DARK, ATTRACTIVE—CHOOSE, MADAM I ' Says Sago Tea Mixed With Sulphur Restores Natural Color and : > Lustre. a I Gray, faded hair turned beautifully e dark and lustrous almost over night, is a reality, if you'll take the trouble to mix sage tea and sulphur, but t what’s the use, you get a large bottle t of the ready-to-use tonic, called “Wyeth’s Sage and Sulphur Hair Remedy ’ II at drug stores here for about 50 cents, g Millions of bottles of ‘’Wyeth's" are sold annually, says a well-known druggist, because it darkens the hair so k naturally and evenly that no one can g tell it has been applied. e You just dampen a sponge or soft , brush with Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur ‘ 'and draw It through your hair, taking one small strand at a time. Those * whose hair is turing gray, becoming faded, dry, schaggiy and thin have a (surprise awaiting them, because after s just one application the gray hair vanfishes and your locks become luxuriantly dark and beautiful—all dandruff n goes, scalp itching and falling hair stops. This is the age of youth, gray-hair-ed attractive folks aren’t wanted around, so get busy with the sage and sulphur tonight and you'll be amazed •• at your youthful appearance and the i. real beauty and healthy condition of e your hair within a few days. Inquiry B at drug stores here shows that they v all sell lots of "Wyeth’s Sage and Sulphur” and the folks using it are enthusiastic.
