HOW TO DARKEN ' GRAY HAIR Makes One Look Twenty Years Younger. Men and women who used to be called Grandpa and Grandma, are now setting the styles by their gray hair with a simple home mixture. For instance, J. A. McCrea, a well known Californian, recently made the following.'Statement: “Anyone can prepare a simple mixture in five minutes, that, will darken gray hair, and make it soft. and glossy. Merely take a. half-pint I of water, add 1 ounce of bay rum, al small box of Barbo Compound, 14 ! oz. of glycerine. These ingredients can he bought at any drug store at trifling cost. Apply to the hair twice weekly with comb. It does not color the scalp, is not sticky or greasy and will not rub off.” (Advertisement.)

Railroad managers feel that it is their duty to ac quaint the public with the facts about the railrtMMJtaL and in that way, through the building up of a sqtftid public sentiment, hold up the hands of fair-minded Congressmen and Senators, who are willing that thq railroads shall have their fighting chance at this time of crisis in their affairs; that they shall have an oppor tunity to work out their salvation under the provi sions of the laws now on our statute books, and that their operations shall not be further hampered (p. n through obstructive lerislatiou, “Uncle Charlie 1 ’ Patton, * Gardener for Harding, Leaves the White House WASHINGTON, Nov.
