.DANDRUFE, FALLING
HAIR STOPPED
Harmless, Old Fashioned Rem
edy Brings Back Color to Gray
Hair and Makes It Grow.


How many old-fashioned remedies are
being used, which goes to show that it
is hard to improve some Of our grand
mothers Old-time, tried remedies. For in
stance, for keeping the hair dark, soft and
glossy nothing equals our grandmothers'
sage tea" Although, by the addition Of
sulphur and other Ingredients, this old
fashioned brew has been made more eff
fective rs scalp tonic and color re-
storer.
Nowadays, when our hair comes out or
gets faded or gray, instead of going to
the garden or garnet for herbs and
making the ''tea" ourselves, we simply
go to the nearest drug store and ask for
a bottle Of Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur
Hair Remedy.
Druggists are authorized to sell it
under guarantee that the money win be
refunded Il It fails to do exactly as rep
resented.
This preparation Il offered to the
public at fifty cents q bottle, and is
recommended and sold by all druggists.

wh.-. w. Al.

William Dean Howells in one of his
talks about literature said: "Good lit
erature is always condemned OH its first
appearance. That is because. being
original, it is new and strange. Shell.
ley's work was bitterly condemned at
first. SO was Coleridge's. So was Words
worth's. SO was Stephen Cranes. :"
Mr.. Howells paused. then added i'm
pressively. "Stones are only thrown at
those trees which are heavy with
fruit"

HOW TO GROW LAVENDER.
The start Is Difficult, but After That II
Flowers In Prefusion.

The Starr Is pifficult, but After tnat u
Flowers In Prefusion.
Lavender is hardy when 1t is once
firmly established. but IT is not the
easiest perennial to start in this coun-
try. At first ! bought nursery stock,
but out of two dozen plants. which l
got from four different sources during
two years, only one lfsed, and that was
always a semi-invalid, so | resorted to
the slower method of sowing seed.
In March q shallow box was filed
with potting mold, thoroughly soaked
with water. then covered with about
one-fourth Of an inch Of soil, patted
down firmly, the box covered with
glass and placed In west window.
AS soon as seedlings appeared the
glass was removed. but they were
shaded from the direct sun and lightly
sprinkled every morning.
When two inches high they were
transplanted to deeper box and set
two inches apart. About two months
later they were transplanted to part
" shaded seed bed In the garden, and
the last two leaves were nipped on
each plant to insure bushy growth.
Cultivation was constant all through
the summer until August, when they
were again transplanted, this time into
a bed which was to be their permanent
home-a border partly shaded by
shrubs. 1t happened to be very dry
summer. SO they were sprinkied every
evening.
When cool weather set in. leaves
were scattered between the plants, and
the quantity increased as the weather
became more severe. In the spring
the mulch was removed and little
bonemeal raked into the ground
around the plants. The ground must
be covered every winter. and 1t is well
to have a dressing of well rotted cow
manure dug into the bed during the
early fall.
In June or July we always have
huge quantities Of flowers We have
never marketed any of them. but they
have formed the basis Of many Christ
mas and birthday presents. Ten
pounds of lavender flowers and one
pound each of musk, thyme, rosemary
and mint leaves, all dried and mixed
with one ounce of ground cloves, Is an
old formula for moth bags which pre-
serves our furs and woolens Just as
effectually as camphor balls or tar
mixtures.-Woman's Home Companion.

How 10 Serve watermeIons.


Watermelon balls served with sherry
and ice in tall grapefruit glasses make
pretty and tempting luncheon course
on hot day. Another way of making
watermelon even more delicious than
it is by nature is to tap 1t and pour In
pint bottle Of champagne or of
sparkling burgundy. The melon should
stay on the Ice until thoroughly cold,
and in the meantime the wine will
soak into the fruit. making a delicious
dessert
A pretty way to serve the fruit for
breakfast is in four or FIVE inch squares
with hollow on top filed with shaved
ice. 1t can also be cut In strips and
laid in square around a mound Of
ice,

HOW TO MAKE LIMEWATER
Easy to Prepare and Il Valuable About
the Household.


One OF the most useful agents OF
household economy, If rightly under
stood, Is iimewater. Its mode OF prep
aration is as follows: Put a piece
Of fresh unslaked lime about the size
Of a half peck measure into a large
stone jar and pour over 1t slowly and
carefully ESQ as not to slacken too rap
Idly four gallons Of hot water and stir
again two or three times in. twenty
four hours Then bottle carefully all
that can be poured off in clear state.
Ldmewater is often sold by druggists
as a remedy for children's summer
complaint. a teaspoon in cup Of milk
being a dose. When diarrhea is caus-
ed by acidity of the stomach 1t Is an
excellent remedy. When put into mAk
it gives no unpleasant taste, but rath-
er improves the flavor.
When put into milk that might cur
die when heated 1t will prevent 1t 50
doing, and the milk can then be used
for buildings and pies. A little stirred
into cream or milk after hot day or
night will prevent its turning when
used for tea or coffee.
It is unequaled in cleansing bottles
for babies. as it sweetens and purifies
without leaving an unpleasant odor.

The stickIebaok Leoend

The stickleback is one Of the species
Of fish that build nests. There Is q
legend that the stickleback builds a
nest because during the deluge II
pulled the tow out Of the bilge hole of
the ark, and If 1t had not been for the
hedgehog. who plugged up the leak
with his own body. Noah and his sons
would have had an exciting time bal
ing out their boat. When Noah found
out who had done the deed he ordered
as punishment that the culprit
should be compelled each year to build
nest, while other fishes would have
an easy time of 1t.

WORK THAT TELLS
Plenty of it has Been Done Right
Here in Mount Holly.

Cures that last are cures that tell. To
thoroughly know the virtues of medi-
cine you must investigate the cures and
see if they prove permanent. Doan's
Kidney Pills stand this test, and plenty
of proof exists right here in Mt. Holly.
People who testified years ago to relief
from backache, kidney and urinary dis
orders, now declare that relief was
permanent and the cure perfect How
can any Mt. Holly sufferer longer doubt
the evidence?
Mrs. Emma Mcintosh, so White St.,
Mt Holly, N. J., says: SIN my opinion
there is no better kidney medicine to be
had than Doan's Kidney Pills. In 1908
publicly recommended them and I am
now pleased to confirm my former state
ment. My back had caused me misery
especially at night and had difficulty
with the kidney secretions. took med
icine of various kinds, but was not
benefited until I began using Doan's
Kidney Pills, procured at Jones' Phar-
macy. When found that this remedy
was helping me continued its use and
was restored to good health"
