A HARMLESS WAY To
OARkEN THE HAIR
A Little Sage and Sulphur
Makes Gray Hair Vanish -- A
Remedy for All Hair Troubles.

Who does not know the value of sage
and sulphur for keeping the hair dark,
soft, glossy and in good condition? AS
a matter of fact, sulphur is a natural
element of hair, and a deficiency of it
in the hair is held by many scalp
specialists to be connected with loss of
color and vitality of the hair. Unques-
tionably. there is no better remedy for
hair and scalp troubles, especially pre-
mature grayness, than sage and sui
phur. if properly prepared. The Wyeth
Chemical Company, of New York, puts
up an ideal remedy of this kind, called
Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Hair Rem
edy, and authoyizes druggists to sell it
under guarantee that the money will
be refunded ii it fails to do exactly as
represented.
If you have dandruff, or if you hair
is thin or turning gray, get a bottle of
this remedy from your druggist today,
and see what it will do for you.
This preparation Is offered to the
public at fifty cents a bottle, and is
recommended and sold by all druggists.

IcE.BAGS.


When preparing for a picnic make
two bags of ~unbleached muslin, one

inches, and run a drawstring In the
tops of both. Just before you start
fill the smaller bag with ice, slip it into
the larger bag and pour sawdust all
around 1t, so that the bag containing

This will be heat-proof, and will
keep the ice solid for at least half a
day.

place near the refrigerator, in which

! TREATMENT FOR BLACKHEADS.

Many persons are greatly annoyed
by what Is commonly termed black
heads" due to an accumulation OF
fatty matter in the ducts which carry
away the secretion from the fat glands
of the skin. The following Is the pro-
per treatment for a case of this sort
Squeeze GU the fatty, matter, gently
pressing the skin between the fingers,
or by pressing upon the spot with a
watch key or similar instrument made
for tho purpose. Wash the face thor
oughly with a little fine soap, then
apply a lotion consisting of two
drachms of ether, two drachms of
borax and four ounces of water, which
should be employed daily. After a
few weeks employ. instead of the lotion
given, a solution of sulphate of zinc,
one-half drachm to the pint of water.

THE CARE OF THE HAIR.

To make the hair simply fluffy with
out curling it moisten 1t with a prepar-
alton of two grams alcohol or rectiied
half ounce ~bicarbonate of soda and
four ounces rosewater. Every night
rub every inch of the scalp with
cold water, using a clean nailbrush, if
you want to keep your hair in good
condition. Once a week use a tonic.
An excellent one is made of alcohol, one
pint; sweet oil, one ounce; t%incture of
c~antharides, one drachm. Use a few
drops of any essence you prefer to per-
fume it. A good way to apply any To-
ton to the head and hair is by means
of a nailbrush or the f1inger-tips.
