Simply moisten your comb or a soft brush, with it and, draw this through your hair, taking one small strand at a time; by morning the gray hair dis-' appears, but what delights the 1md|es‘ with Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Com- pound, is that, besides beautifully darkening the hair after a few appli- cations, it also produces that soft lus- tre and appearance of abundance which is so attractive.

ADOPTS CHRISTIAN FAITH Board of Forcign Missions Received Word That Soldiers Embrace Belief ‘hlcago, March 156.—~The Eleventh division of the Chinese army, called by some ‘‘the Chingse Ironsides,” com- manded by Major General Feng Yu Hslang, known as “the Cromwell of China," has become solidly Christian, according to a cablegram received to- day by the Board of Foreign Missions of the Methodist Episcopal church. The cablegram, which was from the Rev, Edward Kingsley Lowry, a re- | turned missionary in China residing in Pekng, told of the conversion of 4,000 soldiers of the eleventh division, with General Feng assisting at the cere- | mony. According to the board of for- | elgn missions there were only about this number of soldiers remaining in General Feng's division who were not Christians so the hoard infers that this completes the personnel of this fighting group of China, It was General Feng and his elev- enth division which swooped down from Shensi province to the relef of Peking, then being d.fended by Gen- eral Wu Pei Fu in the fighting of last summer. General Feng threw his men into the path of the victorious Man- churians and hurled them back in a defeat, which eventually resulted in rout. At that time the Christian sol- diers wore arm bands containing the stern military ideals of their leader. They advanced to the fray singing Christian hymns. This division is the only one in the Chinese army in which Argentine Giant Beats Bill Brennan Luis Firpo made good before a large throng in Madison Square Garden, New York, when he: defeated the veteran Bill Brennan in the best battle of heavyweights New York has seen in many |a day.

(', Hill and staged under the direction of Winchell $mith, was produced for the second evening at the chapel theater of the South Congregational church, It has been decided to re- peat the performance, The play was so well acted the audience was convulsed laughter throughout the entire formance, his play some quaint New philosophy. One illustration Nathaniel Hobbs, the wealthy i who, by keen Yankee shrewdness, controls the politics in his district, is advising Dan Edwards, the city clerk, for mayor, how to get votes, Dan senses strong op- position in the south district and plans a battery of speakers. Nate tells him to send one campaigner down to talk to the men as individuals, telling him that votes which can be influenced by platform speakers are the same as windfall apples, not much good, and not nearly as valuable as the hand-picked variety. The play is based on the opposi- tion of an old-fashioned but prosper- ous Yankee farmer, who has made his money principally because of his knowledge of his fellowmen and his keen judgment, to inaugurating a new system in keeping track of his affairs. He is persuaded by his daugh- ter, a college graduate, to purc an adding machine. He buys, ffom the city government, an adding ma- chine, which has been discarded by accident, paying $15 for it. Then the mayor finds there is a mistake and orders the machine put into the tax collector's office. The difficulties of the old man in getting his machine or his money back from the city officials are mirth provoking and the play ends with the old man and his daughter walking out of the city clerk's office, the former with the adding machine under his arm. Raymond R. Watkins takes the part of Nate Hobbs very clev Ruth V. Henry as Nancy Hobbs, his daughter, is a real actress. Mrs. R. P. Babcock as Mrs. Hobbs, typifies the old fash- ioned farmer's wife to perfection. Harry E. Scheuy as Dan Edwards, the city clerk and candidate for may- or, is good, George E. M. Bean as Martin Marsh, the city mayor, fits the part just like an old time politician. Sidney A. Montague is good as city treasurer as is David R. Manning as Gid Hale, the tax collector. Howard Timbrell carries a profes- sional air as Benjamin Perkins, the lawyer, while Misses Margaret J. Boardman and Elizabeth G. Shetman, {as stenographers, and Robert W. that with per- England Christ, as messenger boy, give the city |} [~ tell. hall its final business touch. The hit of the opening uct is Rev, Dr, Hill as “Sam Butler," the hired man, The transformation from the part of a minister to that of a sim- ple country bumpkin in overalls and hob nailed boots, who goes to sleep in company, is one of the marvels of the production, 8o cleverly doés the min- ister play his part that it is some time before he is recognized and then only by his voice, Because of the inabllity to handle the demand for tickets, the play will be repeated on March 23, CREAM FOR CATARRH OPENS UP NOSTRILS Tells How To Get Quick Relief from Head-Colds.
