WHAT A KISS MAY MEAN.

Dear Miss Grey: Since 1
am engaged to be married,
don't think you will object
to telling me the true mean
ing of a kiss. Miss Grey,
what do you think il really
means? Also where is the
proper place to kiss a girl, on
the forehead, cheeks or lips?
SLIM-JIM.
A.-Kiss in the highest sense Is
the outward expression of the d.
vinest feeling or emotion. A kiss
on the forehead signifies rever-
ence; on the cheek. friendship;
on the lips, love. When one can
kiss the lips of the opposite sex
with the purest feeling and
thought, he has learned in part at
least, the meaning of an elevated
love. One moment, when each
becomes the channel through
which divine love flows, is worth
years of mere physical enjoyment,
with its path strewn with trouble
and disease.
A marriage founded on the
sublime need not be impractical.
and the offspring of such are
conceded by scientists to be Of
the brainest type.

GRANDMOTHERs
USED SAGE TEA
To Darker the Hair and Re-
store Gray and Faded Hair
to Its Natural Color.

It is easier to preserve the color Of
the hair than 20 restore it, although il
is possible to do both. Our grand.
mothers understood the secret. They
made ''sage tea" and their dark,
glossy hair long after middle life was
due to this fact Our mothers have gray
hairs before they are fifty, but they are
beginning to appreciate the wisdom Of
our grandmothers in using Usage tea"
for their hair and are fast following suit.
The present generation has the adyan-
tage of the past in that it can get a
xeady-to-use preparation called Wyeth's
Sage and Sulphur Hair Remedy. AS q
scalp tonic and color restorer this prep
aration is vastly superior to the ordinary
sage tea made by our grandmothers.
The growth and beauty of the hair
depends on q healthy condition of yhe
scalp. Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Hair
Remedy quickly kills the dandruR germs
which rob the hair OF its life, color and
lustre, makes the scalp clean and
healthy, gives the hair strength, color
and beauty, and makes it grow.
