ted his caae to judgment of the pub-

The cases of Comstock and Colby
serve to show that strict. enforce-
ment of the Volstead act and the
prohibition amendent is almost fan-
possible. Law enforcement depends
upon public opinion in the last analy-
Bi8. Laws are but the reflex of pub-
iiC opinion.
Public opinion is divided upon the

they didn't support the dray law
and they don't propose to abide by
lt now. Of course, if we have a law,
we should see that It is enforced.

Month after month, starting from

Reubens and secured appeasement for
her hearty appetite with such coarse
morsels of food as satiate the palate
of royalty and chorus girls', he claims,

bill would she ever pay.

Hair that loses Its color and lus

dull and lifeless, is caused by a lack

mother 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 attractive, use on

Nowadays we get this famous' mix

other ingredients by asking at any
drug store for a bottle of "Wyeth's
Sage and Sulphur Compound," which
darkens the hair bo naturally, so
evenly, that nobody can possibly tell
it has been applied. You Just damp

and draw this through your hair,,
taking one small strand at a time.

darkening the hair after a few ap
