In every household, no matter
how economical the housewife,
there Is a certain amount o f ta
ble sernps and kitchen waste
which has feeding value, but
which If not fed, finds Its wny

Poultry Is the only class o f do-
mestlc nnlmals which Is sultnhle
for converting this waste mate-
rial, right where It Is produced
In tho city, Into wholesome and
nutritious food In tho form of
eggs and poultry meat.
Bach hen In her pullet year
should produce ten dozen eggs.
The average size o f the back
yard flock should be at least ten
hens.
Thus each flock would
produce In a year 100 dozen eggs
which, at tho conservative value
of 25 cents a dozen, would be
worth $25.
By keeping n hnck-yard poul-
try flock The family would not
only help in reducing the cost of
living but would have eggs o f a
quality nnd freshness which are
often difficult to obtain.
Itcmcmhcr that eggs produced
by the back-yard flock cost very
little, ns the fowls are fed large-
ly upon wnste materials.

Tea and Sulphur, properly compound
ed, brings back the natural color and
lustre to the hair when faded, streak
ed or gray. Years ago the only way
to get this mixture was to make It at
home, which Is mussy and trouble
some. Nowadays, by asking at any
drug store for “ W yeth’s Sage and Sul

bottle of this famous old recipe, Im
proved by the addition of other In
gredients. for about 69 cents.
Don’t stay gray! T ry it! No one
can possibly tell that yon darkened
your hair, as It does It so naturally
and evenly. You 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, and after another ap
plication or two, your hair becomes
beautifully dark, gloesy and attractive.

A Unique Suggestion.
A constable In a Vermont town re
cently rounded up a number of ho
boes.
"Come along,” he said to them. “ You
have all got to have a bath.”
This announcement was, of course,
received with considerable perturba
tion, especially by the eldest o f the
men.
“ W h a t!” he exclaimed. “ A bath! A
bath with water?”
“ Sure thing," said the constable.
“ Look here. Mr. Constable," said the
apprehensive one. “ Couldn’t you man
age it with one of them vacuum clean
ers?” — Case and Comment
