Gentlemen:
“Before I commenced using the WHOLE GRAIN
one year ago, I was obliged to take medicine every other
day for constipation. During the year I’ve not taken, one
,dose of medicine for this purpose. I am 86 years old and
in perfect health. R. P. Rider,
Pies., Mo. Historical Society.
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. Iti cymes in hermetically sealed san
itary 11-ounce tins (ample for four servings) and is sold in
packages of not less than one dozen (a 24-day supply because
regular use is essential to results) delivered for $2.00. Guaran
teed to improve the user physically and mentally when used
twice daily for 24 days or money refunded.

| FEW FOLKS HAVE
! 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.
PRIME ENTERTAINERS
IN “VENUS” CAST
Nyra Brown and Johnnie Getz,’!

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
