The Nebraska State Banking; board
has heard the report of the state bank
examiners In regard to the recent ab

wait for permission, but made the deal

With Concealed Tin Horn
Substitutes for the Victrola
a tais-- i
ov
. When you get a cabinet-style talk
ing-machine, you want a cabinet-style
talking-machine with sounding boards and ampli
fying compartment of resonant wood built right into
the instrument.
You don't want a substitute arrangement that merely conceals
an amplifying tin horn behind some fancy grille work, or that
swings the horn around from one position to another while the
record is playing. With any such inadequate substitute you can't
expect a satisfactory tonal reproduction from your records.
There's no such substitute device in the Victrola. You can open the modifying
doors and see the sounding boards and amplifying compartment for yourself and
these exclusive patented Victrola features are necessary to provide the very limit of
area and character of vibrating surface so necessary to a full and pure tone reproduc
tion at all times in exact accord with the artist's interpretation. '
Furthermore, the modifying doors give you full control over the volume of sound,
and enable you to increase or diminish it at will simply by opening or closing the doors
another important patented feature, and exclusive with the Victrola.
Come in and find out all about the Victrola. See the features that result in such
a wonderful tone and make the Victrola supreme among musical instruments.
Victrolas $15 to $300. Victors $10 to $100. Easy terms, if desired.

Ladies! Darken
Your Gray Hair
Look years younger. Use
Grandmother's recipe of
, Sage Tea and Sulphur
and nobody will know.
The use of 8ae and Sulphur for re
storing faded, fray hair to Its natural
color dates back to grandmother's time.
She used It to keep her hair beautifully
dark, glossy and abundant. Whenever
her hair fell out or took on that dull,
faded or streaked appearance, this sim
ple mixture was applied with wonderful
effect.
Hut brewing at home Is mussy and
out-of-date. Nowadays, by asking; at
any drug etore for a SO-cent bottle of
"Wyeth's Base and Sulphur Compound."
you will get this famous old recipe
which ran be depended upon to restore
natural culdr and beauty to the hair and
la splendid for dandruff, dry, feverish,
Itchy scalp and falling hair.
A well-known downtown druggist says
It darkens the hair so naturally and
evenly, that nobody can tell It has been
applied. You simply dumpen a sponge
or soft brush with It and draw this
through your hair, taking one strand at
a time. By morning the gray hair dis
appears, and after another application or
two It becomes beautifully dark, glossy
and abundant. Advertisement.
