 Gray Hair Vanish.

Who does not know the value of Sage and Sulphur for keeping the hair dark, soft and glossy and in good condition As a matter of fact, Sulphur is a, natural element of hair and a deficiency of 1t in the hair is held by many scalp specialists to be connected with loss of color and vitality of the hair. Un- questionably, there is no better remedy for hair and scalp troubles, especially premature grayness, than Sage and Sulphur. if properly prepared.
 The Wyeth Chemical Company Of New York put out an ideal preparation of this kind, called Wyeth's Sage and Sulpnur Hair Remedy, in which Sage and Sulphur are combined with other valuable remedies for keeping the hair and scalp in clean, healthy condition.
 If your hair is losing it's color or constantly coming out, or if you are troubled with dandruff, or dry, itchy scalp, get fifty cent bottle of Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur from your druggist, use 1t according to the simple direc- tions. and see what a difference a few days treatment will make in the ap- peArance of your hair
 All druggists sell it, under guarantee that the money will be refunded if the remedy is not exactly as represented. Special agent, The Lee & Osgood Co.,, 131 Main street.

Finds Favor-Committee Appointed to
 Investigate Matter.

Henry Danielson, Everett O. Wood and George B. Guild have been named as a committee of the Mems club of the Congregational church to investi- gate the feasibility of securing and establishing a children's playground In Danielson While little has been ssid about this proposition until the present week, there is very indica- tion Of widespread interest in the de- velopment of the idea, and an indica- ton that considerable support is avail able for it's development.
 In a general way, the matter has been discussed and the fact estab- llshed that there is need for such grounds in Danielson.

TO WE'D AGAIN
ON JUNE 9TH
South Carolina GirI--Annull- /
msnt Proceedings Of His
First Marriage Heard.

Following the testimony in the
Chancery Chambers in Jersey City
by Doctor John Daniel Smyser, Jr.,
son Of Captain John D ,smyser, a
former resident of this city, for the
annulment of his marriage to Edna
Anna Leader, comes the announce
ment of his coming marriage to Miss
Fannie Sue Saunders, Of Florence,
South Carolina. The wedding is
scheduled for Thursday evening,
June 27, at six o'clock, in the First
Baptist church of the brides home
town.
Mr. Smyser is we'll known In this
city. Mr.. Smyser Is a graduate of
Baltimore Medical College and is
now practlcing in Baltimore, where
his parents reside. Although mar
ried in 1906, Mr.. Smyser never lived
with his wife, Many of the physi-
clans friends in this city have re
ceived invitations to the ceremony.
The New York Sun of yesterday
contains the following account of the
annulment proceedings: John d.
Smyser, Jr.. a student at the Balti-
more Medical College and a son Of
II.
ficer of the U. 8. Marine Corps, play
ed the leading role in a trial for
annulment of marriage in the Chan
Gerry Chambers, Jersey City, yester-
day before Vice Chancellor Howell.
Smyser testified that he wound up a
nights escapade on August 10, 1906,
by marrying Edna Anna Leader, a
young actress then playing in the
Cherry Blossoms" He said that
he had not seen her since and saw
her only twice before the marriage.
"Smyser testified that he made the
acquaintance of the actress while
walking along Sixth avenue, Manhat-
tan, one night. He was 18 years old
at that time. He said he represented
himself to be the son of a rich man.
The second time they met they made
an engagement for August 10. Smy-
ser said that the two visited several
Newark cafes and the last that he
remembers they were in Electric
Park, a pleasure resort on the out
skirts OF Newark.
According to one OF the witnesses
the young woman asked Smyser
while seated at table:
Jack, Will you marry me|
Sure, III marry everybody was
the reply young Smyser was alleged
to have made.
'Smyser said that he had a hazy
recollection of sitting in a rocking
chair In somebody's house and that

standing before him. He said that

tertalnment for children on this hoI-
iday, at least. The fireworks are
essential, and the first money ex-
pended will be a beautiful display,
Mr.. Garretson states. Then will fol-
low the music feature etc, which
is part of the fireworks, of course.
The committee hopes to secure
enough funds to warrant the pres
entation of the outdoor circus,
which has been declared the most
novel feature of the entire proposed
program. The motion picture shows
for the older children will be given
free by the management of the Try
onix and Proctor's theatre, and will
be included in the program.
Original Program Likely.
If the amount of funds raised
does not warrant the engagement of
an orator for this occasion, local
talent will be pressed into service,
the acting mayor states, and every
one can expect to hear stirring ad-
dress, If such a circumstance oc-
ours. There are many who believe,
however, that the donations during
the next month will warrant the
committee to carry out it's original
plans, and give Perth Amboy a novel
and interesting safe and sane"
celebration, without parades, or
other obnoxious features for those
who are required to furnish the en-
tertainment,
Mr.. Garretson will call a meeting
of the executive committee Just as
soon as the labor troubles are ad-
tusted.
