Should Jake decide to file he will make it exceedingly in- teresting for Henry Rines. Preus is yet a young man but has already made himself prominent in politics. Ford’s Creed. In the future every employe of the Ford motor factory, numbering -20,- 000, will receive five dollars each day for their services. The following is a part of Henry Ford’s creed; Soclal justice begins at home, We want those who helped produce this institution to share our prosper- ity. : We want our employees to have present profits and future prospects. Thrift, good service and sobriety will be encouraged and recognizad. It is our hope to do still better by our employes. . We believe in making 20,000 men prosperous and contented rather than in following the plan of making a few slavedrivers multimillionaries, One Reason For High Cost Of Living We never get anything without paying for it. Put that down and keep it in mind. Everything we get we must pay for. If we want to telephone our orders to the grocer—we pay for that prl- vilege. 1f we wish to have these orders de- llvered—we must pay for it. If we buy sugar in cartons instead of by the pound—we pay for the carton. If we buy oatmeal in a package — we pay for the cardboard. If we buy maple syrup in botties —we must pay for the bottle. Now, we can avoid all of these ex- tra charges upon our pocket books— but do we care to go back to the trouble and bother and untidiness of the old times, which this saving would involve? Do we wish to walk down to the grocer or butcher every time we need anything for the kitchen or the ta- ble? Are we willing to carry home cur purchases.? Do we care to exchange'the cleanly carton for the open barrel or drawer, in which the sugar or the oatmeal was kept?. Convenlences cost packages cost money, They must all be paid for. The man who provides " the convenience muct be remunerated for his trouble. The maker of the car- ton must be paid, and the manufaz- turer of the cereal must have a profit on his additional investment. It costs less to put 200 lbs. of oat- meal in barrels than it does te fill the same quantity into cartons, all of which must be sealed after being filled. This labor must be paid for and the manufacturer justly claims an extra profit on this extra invest- ment, We can buy sugar out of the bar- rel. We can buy oatmeal out of the drawer. We can buy syrup from a tarrel. But most of us recogniza the fact, that whenever we do, we run the risk of carrying home suth impurities as even the most careful grocer cannot protect us against. There will always be flies. There will always be dust. And dust and fliss will get into open drawers, boxes and ‘barrels. From a sanitary standpoint there is no comparison between the pack- age and the bulk method of handling groceries, But if we want these conveniences ‘we must pay for them. For they zost money, and it is only fair that the cost should come out of those who benefit because of them—the con- sumers. And so long as the package must| be pald for, the same amount of * money will buy less of the package ‘than of the bulk goods—which na- turally increases the cost of living. —_— money.

Almost everyone knows that Sage Tea and Sulphur, properly compound- ed, brings back the natural color and lustre to the hair when faded, streak- ed or gray; also ends dandruff, itch- ing scalp and stops falling hair. Years ago the only way to get this mixture was to make it at home, which is mussy and troublesome. Nowadays we simply ask at any drug store for “Wyeth’s Sage and Sul- phur Hair Remedy.” You will get a large bottle for about 50 cents. Ev- erybody uses this old, famous recipe, because no one can possibly tell that you have darkened your hair, as it does it 50 naturally and evenly. You dampen a sponge or soft 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, your hair becomes beautifully dark, thick and glossy and you look years younger.—Adv. i This remedy has no superfor for coughs and colds. . It is pleasant to take. It contains no opium:or other narotic. It always cures.
