Judoe Grants Motion,

Saturday afternoon in the probate court there was a hearing before Judge James A. Shea on the petition of $. Arnold Peckham, administrator of the estate of the late Charles F. Macfarlane, asking for authority to settle and compromise doubtful and disputed claim of c. F. Macfarlane ac- cording to the statutes of the state.
 The claim is that C. E. Aacfarlane owns half of the business conducted on Church street, which is a store fill- ed with antiques and curios, conducted for 10 or more years by the deceased. Both the deceased and son did business in the same store. It is now claimed by C. F. Macfarlane that he had half interest in the same but this is dis puted by the administrator, as there IS said to he no written agreement of evidence whatsoever of the alleged fact. The controversy is of interest to the heirs of the estate, as it means a smaller one for division if the fact can be established that C. F. Macfarlane did possess a half interest as he main tains
 Following hearing of the parties interested. there being no objection to the granting of the petition, Judge Shea granted the motion of the aa- ministra tor. so that now the settle 1nent of the matter rests with him.

oLD-TiME REMEDY
 DARkENS THE HAIR.
Gives Color, Lustre to Faded and Gray Hair-Dandruff Quickly Re- moved.

From time immemoral. sage ana sulphur have been used for the hair and scalp. Almost everyone knows of the value of such a combination for darkening the hair, for curing dan druff and falling hair, and for making the hair grow.-
 In olden times tIle. only way to get a hair tonic of this sort was to brew it in the home fireplace, a method which was troublesome and not aI- ways satisfactory Nowadays almost every up to date druggist can supply his patrons with ready to-use prod uce. skiifully compounded in perfectly equipped laboratories The Wyeth Chemical company of New York put up an ideal remedy of this sort. called Wyeths Sage and Sulphur Hair Rem edy, and authorize druggists to sell it under guarantee that the money will be refunded if 1t fails to do exactly as repreSen te,,.
 If you have dandruff, or if your hair is turning gray or coming out, don't delay. but get q bottle of this remedy today and see what a few days treat ment will do for you.
 This preparation is offered to the public at. f1fty cents a bottle, and is recommended and sold by all drug gists. Special agents, The Lee & Os- good Co. 131 Main street.
