GRANDMOTHER
USED Sage TEA
TO Darker the Hair and Restore Gray
apd Faded Hair to Its Natural
COIOr.

1t is easier to preserve the color of
the hair than to restore it, although it
is possible to do both. Our grand
mothers understood the secret. They
made a sage tea" and their dark,
glossy hair long after middle life was
due to this fact. Our mothers have
gray hair before they are fifty, but they
are beginning to appreciate the wis
dom of our grandmOthers in using
sage tea" for their hair and are fast
following suit.
The present generation has the ad-
vantage of the past in that it can get
ready-to-use preparation called WI
eth's Sage and Sulphur Hair Remedy.
AS scalp tonic and color rest0fer this
preparation is vastly superior to the
ordinary sage tea made by our
grandmothers
This remedy is sold under guaran-
tee that the money will be refunded if
it fails to do exactly as represented.
If your hair is losing color or COM
ing out, start using Wyeth's Sage and
Sulphur today, and see what a change
it will make in a few days time.
This preparation is offered to the
public at fifty cents a bottle and is
recommended and sold by all drug
gists.

MRS. McCILL
BROKE DOWN
Gives the Real Facts In Regard to
Her Case and Tells How She
Suffered.

Jonesboro, Ark-"I suffered a COM
plete break down in health, some time
ago." writes Mrs. A McGin, from this
place. Il was very weak and could
not do any wSrk. I tried different
remedies, but they did me no good
One day, got bottle of Cardui. 1t
did me so much good, l was surprised,
and took some more.
Before I took Cardui, had headache
and backache, and sometimes l would
cry for hours. Now am over all that,
and can do all kinds of homework. I
think it is the greatest medicine on
earth"
In the past fifty years, thousands of
ladies have written, like Mrs. McGill,
to tell of the benefit received from
Cardui.
Such testimony, from earnest women,
surely indicates the great value of this
tonic remedy, for diseases peculiar to
women. Are you sufferer? Yes?
CaGdui is the medicine you need.
We urge you to try it.

HEALTH

Women who bear children and re-
main healthy are those who prepare
their systems in advance Of baby S
coming. Unless the moTher aids
nature in its prenatal wo~l the crisis
finds her system unequal to the de-
mands made upon it, and she is often
left with weakened health or chronic
ailments. No remedy is so truly a
help to nature as Mothers Friend,
and no expectant mother should fail
to use it. 1t relieves the pain and
discomfort caused by the strain on
the llgaments, makes plant and elias
tic those ibres and muscles which
nature is expanding, prevents numb
ness Of limbs, and soothes the inflaln-
nation of breast glands. The system
being thus prepared by Mothers
Friend dispels the fear that the crisis
may not be safely met. Mothers
Friend assures a speedy and complete
recovery for the mother, and size is
left a healthy woman to enjoy the

What New Years Presents Shall
MAKE 2

This depends much upon the per-
sons to whom you make them, but
in none cases than you probably
imagine, no present could be made
which would contribute more to the
welfare of the recipient than a
deposit book in the Hyde Park
Savings Bank.
The Bank ne yer declines a deposit
because it is small. Any sum from a
single cent to a million dollars will
he received and4 per cent. interest
allowed, compounded semi-annually.
Remember the Bank pays all
taxes and If the donor wishes to
qualify the deposit by saying it must
not be drawn until some specified
dav, as ior instance when the recipi-
ent is IS or 81 years of age, it is
entirely proper to make the deposit
in thisway.
Let the pass-book be accompanied
by nice letter from the donor to
the recipient urging thrift and sug-
costing that this little nest egg be
added TO from time to time as the
recipient has few coppers that he
or sine can save.
We do not need to tell you about
the strength and solidity of the Hyde
Park Savings Bank, but il you would
like any facts connected with the
Bank, write the PresidyntssGai roll

The Letters OF Horace
Praise for Recent Publication
of the Elm Tree Press.

The Boston Transcript reviews
apprecidtively as follows "The
Letters of Horace Presented to
Modern Readers" edited by Charles
Looms Dana and John Cotton
Dana, and printed ny the Elm Tree
Press, Woodstock
The editors Of this volume believe
that Horace's letters are not inter-
esting as generally prosecuted in
English. Even the best OF the
poetic Transitions do not make
good poetry noi tell the story salts
factorily. They have no prose trans
lations which make the letters easy
or attractive reading. They therefore
attempt to interest the modern public
them. Not through translation
adorned BY especial elegance of
language, but to give the facts
regarding the personality of the
people to whom the writings are
addressed, to tell the time and the
occasion Of the writing, to supply
the local, historical, and nythologi-
cal references, to keep the thread OF
the story and to show the connection
OF the reasoning these things have
been their aim. Here a,e presented
only portion of the letters - those
generally esteemed the best and
most representative.
An introduction describes the
Sabine Farm, and the condition OF
Rome at the time the letters were
written. The letters given are if
teen in number, twelve of which are
from the first, and three from the
second book Those from the frs
book include two to Maecenas, tn,
curious letter to the steward Of his
farm, and the letter to his cook.
