This potent food is the natural wheat berry (the only sin gle food known to man which contains in balanced combina tion all the sixteen elements required each day for normal nu trition) in its whole form just as it comes from Nature’s lab oratory with nothing added and nothing away, and is wheat in its supreme nutritional effect, because it is the first wheat civilized man ever ate that has been cooked ready to serve without oxidation, distillation, or evaporation effects, the method of cooking being protected by the United States and Canadian Governments. It is not whole wheat flour, but is a food after the form of peas and beans, and more potent in its nutritional effect than any cooked food ever before pro duced, because the cooking has not demineralized nor oxidiz ed its mineral constituents. It is never sold through grocery stores but only through authorized distributor.

GRAY HAIR NOW I V Druggist Says Ladies Are Using Recipe of Sage Tea and Sulphur Hair that loses its color and lustre, or when it fades, turns gray, dull and lifeless, is caused by a lack of sulphur in the hair. Our grandmother made up a mixture of Sage Tea and Sulphur to keep her locks dark and beautiful, and thousands of women and men who value that even color, that beautiful dark shade of hair which is so at* tractive, use only this old-time recipe. Nowadays we get this famous mix ture improved by the addition of other ingredients by asking at any drug store for a bottle of “Wyeth’s Sage and Sul phur Compound,” which darkens the hair so naturally, so evenly, that no body can possibly tell it has been ap plied. You just 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; but what delights the ladies with Wyeth’s Sage and Sutphur Coapound is that, besides beautifully daricning the hair alter a few applica- ; tions. it also brings back the (Jtoss and lustre and gives it aa appearance of j abundance, * ing Dearie” comes here fresh from its run of 400 nights at the Glob t theater, New York. Remember ‘"’re Rc,i Mill' lip Top,’; "The Night Boat” and 'Chin-Chin?” All of these are the handiwork of j Anne Caldwell, author of' “GoodJ Morning, Dearie.” Jerome Kern has; written the music which includes j such famous song- hits as ‘Ka-Lu-A”j and Blue Danube Blues’ and com-j pare favorably with his score for j “Sally,” in fact Mr. Kern calls j “Good Morning, Dearie” the big I sister of ‘Sally.’ "Good Morning Dearie” em ploys seventy five persons in every: performance and carries two car-1 loads of scenery and effects.

Miss Brown, whose fame as an ac tress, dancer and stunning beauiy is well known to local theater-goers is author of the books and lyrics of ‘Venus’ a delightful score of twentw numbers is the contribution of Cas. G. Maynard, whose lilting melodies added so much to me pleas urability of the previous Wintz en terprises. The chorus of ‘Venus” is made up of twenty-four maidens, whose beauty and charm will be one of the copies of the town long after their departure. They Can sing and dance, too. Many song hits are numbered in ‘Venus,” among which are “South Sea Island Mood,” ‘Girl’s Gild’s Gill’s’ “Polly Oh,” “Hello My Radio,” ‘Wait for the Silver Lining,” “Tut Tut,” “Ho, Daddy Mine,” “Here’s A Winter Garden Doll for You” and “A Kiss your You.” HOLD ON; HERE COMES CARTER’S “FAST MAIL” All of those who saw ‘The Fast Mail” please stand up.
