Banker Expects Better Business in Northwest Spokane — **Business generally in 0 , .. . . . , Spokane and throughout the Inland Empire and the Pacific Northwest should show big improvement from now on, and more especially during the summer and next fa ll,” said Aaron J Kuhn, a director o f the Spokane & Eastern Trust company, Wednesday, on returning from a business and pleasure trip to Eastern and Middle Western cities. “ It is reported in N ew York that Germany has ample resources for fully 24 months,” Mr. Kuhn said, “ and it seems to be known that the allied countries are in a position to continue for at least a sim ilar period.” Mr. Kuhn said that while factories are busy throughout the big manufac­ turing centers in the East, there seemB to be a cautious feeling, w ith the re­ sult there is little so-called plunging. “ Another thing is that this is the . presidential election year,” he added, "an d capital is somewhat tim id along certain lines. There are some who be­ lieve that a sudden cessation o f hostil­ ities in Europe w ill result in flooding this country and others w ith cheaply- j made goods. “ One thing is certain: Our tariff question w ill have to be dealt with by the best business brains o f the coun­ tr y .” Nobody can Tell when you Darken Gray, Faded Hair with Sage Tea. Grandmother kept her hair beauti­ fully darkeued, glossy and attractive with a brew of Sage Tea and Sulphur. W henever her hair took on that dull, faded or streaked appearance, this simple mixture was applied with won­ derful effect. By asking at any drug store for "Wyeth's Sage amt Sulphur Compound,” you will get a large bot­ tle of this old-time recipe, improved by the addition of other ingredients, all ready to use, for about 50 cents. This simple mixture can be depended upon to restore natural color and beau­ ty ta the hair. A well-known downtown druggist says everybody uses Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Compound now because it darkens so naturally amt evenly that nobody can telt it has been applied— it's so easy to use, too. You simply dampen a comb or soft brush ami draw It through your hair, taking one strand at a time. By morning the gray hair disappears; after another application or two, it is restored to its natural color and looks glossy, soft and beau tiful. This preparation is a delightful toilet requisite. It is not Intended for the cure, mitigatiou or prevention of disease. A Jo k e W ith A n A fte rth o u g h t. i A newspaper humorist quotes this from a letter received by one of the Georgia congressmen: "M y youngest son has run away and enlisted In the regular army. I can't get him out. W on't you help me? He is a good boy and 1 was raising ; him for my own use." In one sense this is a joke— a Joke upon the father, who was bringing up the boy to get as much work out of him as possible— ami the young sol­ dier probably has chuckled over it more than anybody else. But the story is more serious than humorous. This boy ran away to escape three or four years of hard labor for his father's profit. Unfortunately a good many children cannot escape from their slavery to parents and cotton- mill owners.
