RESTORE GRAY HAIR
TO NATURAL COLOR
BY Common Garden Sage, Simple
Remedy for Dandruff, Falling,
Faded, Gray Hair.

The old idea of using Sage for dark
ening the hair is again coming in vo-
que Our grandmothers had dark, CLOS
sy hair at seventy-five, while our
mothers are gray before they are fiji
ty. Our grandmothers kept their hair
soft and glossy with Sage Tea"
which also restored the natural color.
One objection to using such a prep
9ratiOn was the trouble of making it.
Hhis objection has been overcome by
he Wyeth Chemical Company, of New
ioIk, who have placed on the market
l superior preparation of Sage, com
ined with Sulphur and other valua-
lie remedies for dandruff, itching
scalp and thin, weak falling hair.
The beauty of the hair depends more
IN its rich, even shading than any
thing else. Don't have dry, harsh, "a
led hair, when a simple, harmless
emedy will bring back the color in
I few DAYS; and don't be tormented
With dandruff, itching scalp and loose,
alling hairs Wyeth's Sage and Sui
0hur Hair Remedy will quickly cor
eCt these troubles, and give color,
,trength and beauty to your hair.
Get fifty cent bottle from your
lruggist today and prove this to your
wn satisfaction. All druggists sell
under guarantee that the money
ill be refunded if the money is NOT
yactly as represented. Murray 4

The cynics say that every rose

The inner half of every cloud

And always wear them inside out,
To show the lining
Our idols feet are made Of clay;
So stOny-hearted critics say
With scoInful mockings;
My images are defied,
Because [ keep them well supplied
With shoes and stockings.

To take no heed of what's amiss;
And not a bad one.
Because. as Shakespeare used to say
A merry heart goes twice the way
That tires sad one.

DIET AND HEALTH
HINTS
BY DIR. T. j. ALLEN
Food Specialist
BRITISH AUTHORITY ADVO-
GATES CANE SUGAR.

| have several times empha-
sized the fact in these Hints
that the campaign against sugar
seems to be based on imperfect
knowledge, that the objections
to sugar, like the objection to
many other foods, is not so
much that they are bad In
themselves, but that they are
bad in combination.
Meat and sugar. for instance,
are as incompatible as meat and
milk, while sugar alone, espe.
ciaIly coarse brown or maple
sugar, is not injurious, if there
is sufficient muscular activity
to make a natural demand for
it. Now the British Medical
journal advocates the use Of
sugar in certain cases, saying:
sin wasting disorders, in Vari-
GUS forms of anemia, In adyna
mic varieties of rheumatism,
and especially in the neuras.
thenic manifestations of neu-
rotic persons, Sawyer has found
continued ingestion of cane
sugar markedly beneficial, in
creasing weight and power, and
appearing to act not merely as
a nutrient, but as a tonic in tho
best sense of the word-namely
as a very valuable medicine,
=. gently stimulating the vital
energies TO an aroused action
by a kind of mild stimuIa-
ton, slowly produced and per-
Enanent in effect For an adult
he usually prescribes from a
quarter to a half pound of
cane sugar, to be taken through
the day or night, BUT NOT
JUST BEFORE A MEAL" The
important point to note Is that
the indiscriminate use of sugar
is not recommended. We have
condemned the practice of eat
ing candy at all hours and with
out regard to the needs of the
body for supply of carbo-
aydrate. This is not to be taken
as a general recommendation
of sugar and especially not of
candy, but as emphasizing the
objection N indIscriminate mix
lures, incIudIn UGH sugar.

The newspaper summaries of the
late Lon Livingstons character as a
politician are marked more by ac-
curacy than laudation AS the Rome
Tribune puts it, He believed IN
practical politics, rather than endea
oring to inculcate ideals or to estab-
lish theories, in matters of govern
ment. What best pleased his imme-
diate constituency, was the fact that
he obtained for them practical benz
