RESTORE CRAY HAIR
TO NATURAL COLOR
By Common Garden Sage a
Simple Remedy for Dandruff,
Falling Faded, Gray Hair.

The old idea of using Sage for dark
ening the hair is again coming in vogue.
Our grandmOthers had dark, glossy hair
at seventy-fve, while our mothers are
gray before they are fifty. Our grand
mothers kept their hair. soft and glossy
with 'Sage Tea, which also restored
the natural color. >
One objection to using such a prepar-
alton was the trouble of making it,
This objection has been overcome by
the Wyeth Chemical Company of New
York, who has placed on the market a
superior preparation of Sage, combined
with Sulphur and other valuable rene
dies for dandruff, itching scalp, and
thin, weak, falling hair.
The beauty of the hair depends more
on its rich, even shading than anything
else. Don't have dry, harsh faded hair,
when simple, harmless remedy will
bring back the color in few days; and
don't be tormented with dandruff, itch
ing scalp and loose, falling hairs.
Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Hair Remedy
will quickly correct these troubles, and
give color, strength and beauty to your
hair.
Get a fifty cent bottle from YOUR
druggist today, and prove this to
your own satisfaction. All druggists
sell it, under guarantee that the
money viii be refunded if the
remedy Is not exactly as represented.

at Judge and Jury, mercilessly taunt'

days viewing the magnificent farm
lands of Bryan county, and like all
other shrewd investors who come here,
they decided to plant some of their
money here and await the bountlful
harvest Of dollars it is sure to bring
in in the next five years, to say nothing
of the big returns it will bring in crop

Mr.. Stafford is manager of the farm

Rock Island, and Mr.. Lindstrom is
cashier of the Rock Island Savings
bank, one of the strongest financial
institutions in Illinois, and which in
vests largely in farm loans.
Mr.. Stafford had visited Bryan coun-

at that time was enthusiastic in praise
of what he saw On his second visit
This week he expressed great surprise
at the striking evidences of improve
ment on all sides in the way of better
methods of farming, laying out of sec

lands and building of better farm
houses. Mr. Stafford had been over
most of the state before coming here

FeIicidad.

San Francisco, Cal, June 8. - The
most interesting passenger on the
liner China, which has just arrived
from the orient, was Felicidad, a cur
ly haired pygmy from the island of
LuZOn. Felicidad is a young lady Of
10 summers, with a Colorado maduro
complexion and a pair of jet black
eyes. She weighs As pounds.
Felicidad is a Negrita-one OF the
aboriginal tribes of the Philippines
and a few years ago was doomed to
die as a sacrifice TO appease the wrath
of the gods that had sent the plague
to destroy her tribe.
Her father and mother were plague
victims, as were all her brothers and
sisters. The head men of the tribe
decided that as the little girl had es-
capped, the rest of them might be saw
ed if they killed and ate FeliCidad. 1t
was so ordered, and the program would
have been carried out, but for Mrs.
Abreu, a wealthy Filipino woman, who
was s0journing in the Zambalis noun
tains, where the sacrifice was going to
be celebrated. She bought Felicidad
from the tribe for 80 pesos and later
adopted the child.
Mrs. Abreu died recently, but be-
fore her death gave Felicidad to Miss
Jessie Durham, who is supervisor of
schools of the fourth district of Ma
Mia. Miss Durham, who is a sister of
Mrs. Lloyd Osbourne, came home on
