Hew They Do It. You have doubtless been thrilled by a jungle scene in the movies where a lion closely pursues the fleeting heroine. It is a real lion, too, and anybody can see that they are really running. It is alt done by means of a treadmill upon which the lion is safely chained, though his bonds -are not conspicuous. He is induced to run. the heroine marks time with all her might and a painted background of tropical scenery is moved past them at high speed oa rollers.

Now although the picture was taken at the time of year when in most parts of the country blizzards are the prevailing fashion, there were none In Southern California consequently the Lasky company requested the weather bureau to page a blizzard. Finally one was discovered high in the mountains and the company, including Mr. Reid and Miss King, dashed from the studio by automobile to the storm cen

Druggist Brown knows the awful curse of strong drink because he himself has been a victim. A loving sister rescued him from th brink of a drunkard's grave and kept her secret ten years, then she told him how she did it.

He seems already like a different man. Tescum has gained a wonderful enthusiast in me. I regard it as a Godsend.

GRAY HAIR BECOMES DARK AND BEAUTIFUL
Try Grandmother's Old Favorite P.ecipe of Sage Tea and Sulphur.
Almost everyone knows that Sage
Tea and Sulphur, properly compound-
to. brings back the natural color and lustre to the hair when faded, streaked or gray. Years ago the only way to get this mixture was to make it at borne, which is mussy and troublesome. Nowadays -we simply ask at any drug store for "WTeyth's Sage and Sulphur Compound." You will get a large bottle of this old-time recipe improved by the addition of other ingredients, at very little cost. Everybody uses ibis prescription now, because no one can possibly tell that you darkened your hair, as it does it so naturally and evenly. You dampen a sponge or toft brush with it and draw this through your hair, taking one small strand at a time; by morning the gray hair disappears, and after another application or two, thick and glossy 'plication .or two, your hair becomes beautifully dark, thick and glossy and you look years younger. Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Compound is a delightful toilet requisite. It ia not intended for the cure, mitigation or prevention of disease. (Adv.)
