.OLD-TIME REMEDY
DARKENS THE HAIR
Gives Color, LuStre to Faded
and Gray Hair-Dandruff
Quickly Removed,

From time immemorial, sage and sui
phur have been used for the hair and
scalp. Almost everyone knows of the
value Of such a combination for darken-
ing the hair, for curing dandruff and
falling hair, and for making the hair
grow.
In olden times the only way to get
hair tonic of this sort was to brew 1t in
the home fireplace, method which was
troublesome and not always satisfactory.
Nowadays almost every up-to-date drug
gist can supply his patrons with a ready
to-use product, skillfully compounded in
perfectly equipped laboratories. The
Wyeth Chemical Company of New York
nut up an ideal remedy of this sort,
called Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Hair
Remedy, and authorize druggists to sell
it under guarantee that the money will
be refunded il it fails to do exactly as
represented.
This preparation is offered to the
public at fifty cents a bottle, and is
recommended and sold by all druggists.

USUALLY ONE DOSE
ENDS INDIGESTION
OR DYSPEPSIA

As there is often some one in your
family who suffers an attack of In
digestion or some form of Stomach
trouble, why don't you keep some
Diapepsin in the house handy?
This harmless blessing will digest
anything you can eat without the
slightest discomfort and overcome
sour, gassy stomach five minutes af-
ter.
Tell your pharmacist to let you
read the formula, plainly printed on
these 50-cent cases of Pape's Diapep-
sin, then you will readily see why it
makes indigestion, sour stomach,
heartburn and other distress go in
five minutes, and relieves at once
such miseries as Belching Of Gas,
Eructations of sour, undigested food
Nausea, Headaches, Dizziness, Con-
stipation and other stomach disor-
ders.
Some folks have tried so long to
find relief from Indigestion and Dys-
pepsia or an out-of-order stomach
with the common, everyday cures
advertised that they have about made
up their minds that they have some
thing else wrong, or believe theirs is
case of Nervousness, Gastritis, Ca
tarrh of the Stomach or Cancer.
This, no doubt, is a serious mis-
take. Your real trouble is, what you
eat does not digest instead, it fer
ments and sours, turns to acid, Gas
and Stomach poison, which putrefy
in the digestive tract and intestines,
and besides poison the breath with
nauseous odors.
! A hearty appetite, with thorough
digestion, and without the slightest
discomfort or misery of the Stomach
is waiting for you as soon as you de-
eide to try Pape's Diapepsin.

Story Of the Crime.

Portland Or, Sept. 5.-Jesse P.
Webb, whose sentence was commuted
today murdered VIM. A. Johnson,
wealthy ranchmah, at the New
Grand Central hotel here, October 81,
1910. After beating Johnson nearly
to death with a blackjack, Webb
stuffed the body, still alive, in a
trunk, which had previously been
purchased for the purpose, and sent
it to the union depot in an express
wagon. There he checked the trunk
to South Puyallup, Wash.
Before the trunk was forwarded,
bloodstains led to the discovery of its
contents, and two days later Mrs.
Carrie Kersh, who had accompanied
Johnson from Spokane, and Webb
were arrested together Mrs Kersh
had $1,000, which Johnson had given
her for safe keeping. The money
furnished a motive for the crime.
Both Webb and the woman had de-
Serted their families in Seattle pre-
viously, and had been living togeth-
er in Spokane, where Mrs, Kersh met
Johnson.

her system has received a shock from
which it is hard to recover. Follow

strain of caring for the child, and a
distinct change in the mother results.
There is nothing more charming than
a happy and healthy mother of chill

conditions need be no hazard to health
or beauty. The uneXplainable thing is
that, with all the evidence of shattered
nerves and broken health resulting
from an mprepared condition, women
will persist in going blindly to the trial.
1t isn't as though the experience
came upon them unawares. They have
ample time in which to prepare, but
they, for the most part, trust to chance
and pay the penalty.

Governor Exacted Pledge.
Girls Pleadings Too Much.


while l am opposed to capital
punishment, l would nevertheless
have let Webb hang had it not been
for the pleadings of his wife and lit
tie girl" said Governor West, after
committing the sentence.
"The many letters and petitions I
received did not influence me in the
least" he continued, but I could not
get away from the pleadings of his
little girl. Every time l would look
at my own little girl would wonder
what she would think of me If l
should permit the other little girls
father to be choked to death, simply
to satisfy few people who happened
to be a little bloodthirsty. In addi-
tion to this the sight of the wife and
daughter-and the thought of the
hanging-would bring to my mind
those two little poems from Songs of
the Soil,' by Frank L. Stanton, The
Tragedy and They've Hung Bill
JONES'
Quotes Poems.
After making this statement with
regard to the case, he quoted the two
poems referred to, and which are as
| follows:
They've Hung Bill Jones.
