YOUR GRAY HAIRS
QUICKLY VANISH
A Harmless Remedy, Made
from Garden Sage, Restores
Color to Gray Hair.

A feeling of sadness accompanies the
discovery of the first gray hairs which
unfortunately are looked upon as heralds
of advancing age. Gray hair, however
handsome it may be, makes a person
look old. We all know the advantages
of being young. Aside from the good
impression youthful appearance makes
on others, simply knowing that you are
looking fit" gives one courage to
undertake and accomplish things. So
why suffer the handicap of looking old
on account of gray hairs, when simple
remedy will give your hair youthful
color and beauty in few days time
Most people know that common gar
den sage acts as a color restorer and
scalp tonic as well. Our grandmothers
used a Sage Tea" for keeping their
hair dark, soft and luxuriant. In
Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Hair Remedy
We have an ideal preparation of Sage,
combined with Sulphur and other valua-
ole remedies for dandruff, itching scalp
and thin, weak hair that is split at the
ends or constantly coming out. A few
applications of this valuable remedy
VIII bring back the color, and in short
Glme IL Will remove every trace of dan
oruff and greatly improve the growth
and appearance of the hair.
Get fifty cent bottle from your

antee that the money will be refunded if

field of oats and the Ccckcrell found
that he was coming down to the
city for drink every day. So they
got out of bed at an early hour in
the morning and lay in wait on top
Of COW shed.
Sure enough Mr.. buck appeared.
He was about Il hundred yards away
when Mrs. Cockercll brought her 4.1-
90 down on him and drew bead.
The first shot did the business. He
turned over on his side and in an
hour his hide adorned the Coc!lercll
mansion while the riders. and pun
chcrs were getting their mouths ready
for good mcsscs of vcnison.
The buck was onlya beauty and
speaks well for the proves of Mrs.
Cockcrcll whose feat of daring and
skill in all western sports are well
in this part OF the state. She is rid
den more winning horses in big races
than any cowgirl in this country
and for her to outstrip the men is
not usual. Cripple Creek Times.
