A CLERK WHO BANKS $3. A WEEK Not quite two years ago a clerk in a store started in to Bank $3. a week. He was getting $lO. a week. He always puts in Bank each week as he receives his wages $3. He now has in Bank $267.45. If you are an ambitious young man working on a salary why not open an account here? It will start you on the road to independence.

Says Sage Tea Mixed With Sulphur Restores Natural Color and Lustre. Gray, faded hair turned beautifully ' dark and lustrous almost over night, is i a realty, if you’ll take the trouble to 1 mix sage eat and sulphur, but what’s 1 the use, you get a large bottle of the 1 readjy-to-use tonic, called “Wyeth’s 1 Sage and Sulphur Hair Remedy" at 1 drug stores here for 50 cents. Millions 1 of bottles of “Wyeth’s" are sold an--1 nually, says a well-known down-town druggist, because it darkens the hair so naturally and evenily that no one can tell it has been applied. You just damped a sponge or soft brush with Wyeth’s Sage and Sulphur and draw it through your hair, taking on esmall strand at a time. Those whose hair is turning gray, becoming faded, dry, scraggly and thin have a . surprise awaiting them, because after I just one application the gray hair vanishes and your locks became luxur- , iantly dark and beautiful —all dandruff goes, scalp itching and falling [hair stops. This is the age of youth, gray-hair-ed, unattractive 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 real beauty and healthy condition of your hair within a few days. Inquiry at drug stores here shows that they all sell lots of “Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur” and the folks using it are enthusiastic. The Holthouse Drug Company. mwf (Advertisement) O 11 UNIQUE NAME.

INDIANA HEALTH BULLETIN. Nine men and one woman were murdered in Indiana in the month of [ February, according to statistics which have just been tna4e public by 3 the state board of health. Seven men and one woman were shot. Twenty- ’ four men and six women committed ’ suicide In the state during the month. Eleven men and four women took poison as a means of self-destruction ’ and eight men shot themselves. Two persons froze to death. Two men drowned themselves and two hanged themselves. One man Jand two women chose asphyxiation as .the route to death. The deaths of JI6S persons during the month were 'ascribed to external causes; 122 be,l Ing men and forty-six being women, j The accidental deaths numbered ■ 128, eighty-nine men and thirty-nine women. In this number were two I poisonings, three deaths from burns, 'received in conflagrations, twenty-two deaths from other burns, one accidental drowning, four deaths from firearms, five in mines, thirty three ’ from railroad accidents, four from street car accidents, one from an au- * tomobile accident, two deaths from injuries by animals, and two from se,'rious fractures. Smallpox was more than commonly! prevalent in Indiana during February, although not a single death from the disease was reported to the state , board of health. Many counties had [epidemics. The births during the month far outnumbered the deaths, the birth rate being almost six points higher than the death rate. Pneumonia caused 289 deaths. The death returns show a total of 3,008 and in February of last year j they totaled 2,985. Pulmonary tuber-1 culosis was responsible for 280 deaths I last month and other forms of tuberculosis cost forty-seven lives.

WORK O NNERVES. t Like the proverbial straw that broke the camels back did the warning of, the fire whistle work on the wrought,' up nerves of the public last night 1 at 6:15 causing a great amount of ex- ' citement and anxiety. It was a finishing touch needed to close the day of 1 nerve-racking suspense and cans-I ed a tremor of apprehension to pass 1 [through every person that heard the ' warning blast. In a very few seconds, 1 however, the signal for "fire out” was • given and which set the public to breathing easier. The cause of all the ■ alarm was two wires in the office of j Dr. Roy Archbold, which in some man-/ ner or other became crossed and emit-1 ted sparks which were seen by some 1 party on the street who immediately turned in the fire alarm. The current | was quickly shut off and no damage [ amounted from the crossed wires.

COST OF AUTO UPKEEP GROWING LESS YEARLY. » 11 Motor Car Owners Held Having Less Trouble Thsn Early Day Purchaser. The cost of motoring is rapidly growing cheaper, and it will not be long until it will no longer be regarded as a luxury alone to be enjoyed by the wealthy, according to E. T. Strong, manager of the Indianapolis branch of [the Buick Motor company, "Not only ■is the first cost of many cars being greatly reduced, but what is of equal importance is the fact that the expense of upkeep or maintenance is being brought down yearly.” said Mr. Strong. “Improved factory’ facilities have enabled many companies to cut the price of their cars in away that would indicate that the old cost figures were fictitious, and the fact that the standard for cars has been established assures the minimum cost for parts in the future. Many manufacturers have so thoroughly changed the mechanism of their cars that the owner of an early 1 model finds it impossible to replace a part that has worn out or become worthless. In many other instances the cost of parts is prohibitive for the (reason that they have become obso-* lete. Interchangeable parts for the various Buick models, together with simple mechanism, have reduced the cost of this feature to the minimum. Growing Demand for Cars. “The 1913 season is proving an unusually healthy one, not only in our Indiana territory, but throughout the country. We will receive a shipment of forty-five machines, or fifteen car loads this week, and all of these have 'been sold. At the factory at Flint the shipping facilities were taxed to the I utmost in getting out 100 cars daily. The entire production of one or two models has been sold and every indication is that the season's output will be sold earlier tills year than ever. "The constantly growing demand for cars is proof that the buying public appreciates the successful efforts of the manufacturer to reduce the cost of operation. We realize that we must co-operate with our owners after they have purchased their cars and we have expended hundreds of thousands of dollars in establishing branches and ' service stations where they can obtain attention as satisfactorily as at any factory. Thirty-five Buick branch houses and as many service stations 1 have proven the worth of the investment to Buick tourists whose appreciation has been expressed in substantial ways. Owners Must be Protected. I "Motor car makers must protect the ' men who pay their good money for ears and it is impossible to build a one season sar and succeed. The ownler rightfully reserves the privilege to come to you and say: “I bought the car from you and paid you my good money and am looking to you for projection.’ Cars must not only loo’t well when delivered, but they must contain the material and design that will make them a credit both to the manufacturer and purchaser. They should be sold 'only at a fair commercial profit to t’.ie maker and under a broad and libe.al guarantee, WHEELBARROW PATROLMEN. Washington, Mar. 25—If the rural mail routes of the United States total 1,100,000 miles in length, row many wheelbarrow pat~olmen will It take to keep these roads in good condition? That is the problem which Jonathan Bourne, Jr., recently senator from Oregon, has undertaken to [solve this summer, and without charging Uncle Sam for his services. Bourne was made chairman of the joint good roads committee of con- 1 gress. His salary as senator was cut off March 4. He has learned from French engineers that wheelbarrow patrolmen are the secret of economy tn the upkeep of rural highways. A shovel and a wheelbarrow are all the equipment necessary. Senator Bourne I has written to all of the 420,000 rural imall carriers in the United States for a detailed report as to the length and character of road they cover. From ( state engineers he Is securing data lon the cost of construction and of maintenance. When congress meets I next December the joint committee will be ready to report a complete plan of highway construction and repair. . .~. ■— - a , 1 CANNOT GET BACK.
