Pretty hard to fool that old fellow who has been on the same job since time began. The road contractors are evidently getting back to normalcy. There were twenty blds on one road this morning and it sold for pre-war prices. The conference is over and now the Washington news will be largely the political time marking from congress. Pitty the poor Washington news correspondents. They have to stick. All Mr. Hays has to do the first year to earn that $150,000 is to save the film companies fifty million on shipping. Not such a bad investment for the stockholders after all If he gets it over. Gossip is always a dangerous prae tice, never does any one any good, and often results in harm. Some on ? starts a rumor and it grows to larger proportions, causing pain and sorrow and trouble. Think it over. Indiana now has only about five thousand G. A. R. members, a loss dur ing the year of nearly a thousand. The Grand Old Army is rapidly diminish ing and soon only the remembrance of their excellent lives will be left to us. Every business will go if you push hard enough. Every farmer can make money if he will try .though it's up hill. Every man who is willing tc give service for his wages can get a job and hold it. These are hard times for those who expect to get result? without real effort. . What would the picture family in I.os Angeles he without a big niurdei mystery? Just now it's the Tayloi case with ail the entanglements whici go to make up a real story. Evidently they are trying this year to product stories from life which thrill more than any novel.

1 Your attention is called to a new feature In the Dully Democrat, beginning yesterday — American History ■ day by day—-not only Interesting but . of value. It should he carefully read ' each evening and the children in- ■ strncted to thus fix dates In their minds for future reference. i Germany Is suffering from a general 1 strike, so complete in Berlin and other ( cities that even light and water are i not obtainable. Negotiations are going 1 on but for several days past the suf- ' ferlng has really been great. Evidently this is not the only country where , the administration has trouble. The big disarmament conference has become history. Now, it's up to the senates and parliaments.

By asking at uny drug store for “Wyeth’s Sage and Sulphur Compound,” you will get a large bottle of this old-time recipe. Improved bv the addition of other ingredients, ail ready to use at very little cost. This simple mixture can be depended upon to restore natural color and beauty to the hair.

By morning the gray hair disappears; after another application or two, it is restored to its natural color and looks glossy, soft and beautiful.
