Most self rising flours are not successful because they do not and cannot raise the bakings to the proper lightness, this means a certain loss of nutri tion because they are heavy and hard to digest. Every time you eat food that does not properly digest you do not get the full nutritional value you are over-taxing your stomach. Nourishing and perfect bakings are what good health demands. The one sure way is—use pure flour and good baking powder. If you want to find what thou sands of housewives have learned—make some biscuits with self-rising flour —then make some with good plain flour and Calumet Baking Pow der—notice thegreat difference. One trial will satisfy you. Your health demands that you make the experiment. Those who know—millions of housewives, domestic science teachers,big hotels, restaurants, bakeries and railroads will not use anything but Calumet, the Economy Baking Powder. Play safe —use Calumet and plain flour. It is the most eco nomical and satisfactory, where light, wholesome and pure foods are desired. PACKED IN TIN —KEEPS STRENGTH IN ]* J A YEAR, 52 issues.

EASY TO DARKEN YOUR GRAY HAIR You Can Bring Back Color and H Lustre With Sage Tea H and Sulphur When you darken your hair with Sage Tea and Sulphur, no one can tell, because it’s done so naturally, so even ly. Preparing this mixture, though, at home is mussy and troublesome. At little cost you can buy at any drug store the ready-to-use preparation, im proved by the addition of other ingre dients called “Wyeth’s Sage and Sul phur Compound.” You just damften a sponge or soft brush with it and draw this through your hair, taking one small strand at a time. By morning all gray hair disappears, and, after another ap plication or two, your hair becomes beautifully darkened, glossy and lux uriant. Gray, faded hair, though no. disgrace; is a sigif of old age, and as we all de sire s youthful and attractive appear ance, get busy at once with Wyeth’s Sage and Sulphur Compound and look years younger.
