ducks; but In this there Is a fountain
In the center OF the approaches to the
various dining rooms. The fountain
has a large basin, and Just by way OF
novelty the manager several months
ago placed a few ducks In the water.
They padded around and enjoyed it,
and the guests enjoyed seeing them.
But, better still. the ducks also enjoy

the dining rooms and feast upon the
good things therein. The fies-in

A Few Applications of a Simple
Remedy Will Bring Back
the Natural Color.

Gray hair, dull, ~lifeless hair, or hair
that is falling out, is not necessarily
a sign of advancing age, for there
are thousands of elderly people with
perfect heads of hair without a sim
gle streak of gray.
When gray hairs come, or when
the hair seems t ODE lifeless or dead,
some good, reliable hair-restorlns
treatment should be resorted to at

best preparations to use is the
old-fashioned Sage tea" which
our grandparents used. The
best preparation of this kind is
Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Hair
Remedy, a preparation Of domestic
sage and sulphur, scientifically COM
pounded with later discovered hair
tonics and stimulants, the whole
mixture being carefully balanced and
tested by experts.
Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Is clean
and wholesome and perfectly harm-

stores faded or gray hair to its nat

MAKE CLAIMS
IN MONMOUTH
Democrats Expect Ito Carry
Everything There.
Special to the EVENING NEWS.

DptCtuh 10 TIC lbNING " y.
Keyport, Nov. 5.-From the lead
ers of the Democratic party m
the report of great strength of that
party throughout Monmouth county.
Rarttan township they declare will
roll up about 200 majority for Mr..
Wilson and Mr.. Scully, with the
chances that R. o. Walling, the
Republican candidate for
and H. S. Bedle, candidate for free
holder on the Republican ticket, will
about break even.
Atlantic Highlands and Middle
town township are slated to go about
100 majority for the straight ticket
and Red Bank and Shrewsbury
township have been counted on the
Democratic end of the ballot for
about 200 majority.
Long Branch is expected on the
Democratic side with a heavy major
iity and Freehold is booked by the
leaders to safely give the ticket from
500 to 400 majority.
Asbury Park is not expected to
give a large majority to the ticket,
but it is thought that a slight ma
jority for the Wilson ticket will be
polled at that place.
Matawan and Keyport are also
counted by the local leaders to elect
their Democratic candidates and run
up a comfortable margin for the
head of the ticket.
The general conditions in the Re-
publican party existing throughout
Monmouth county, according to Dem
cratic leaders, are those of splitting
and contentious. They count the Re-,
publicans as heartily discouraged
over the outlook and the Progress
sives are entirely unorganized.
Counting as usual the country dis
tricts as Democratic, Monmouth
county Is conceded by the leaders TO
give Mr.. Wilson and Mr.. Scully about
5000 majority and the county ticket
about 1000.
Ocean county they state will give
a slight majority, and the leaders
unhesitatingly declare hat Mr..
Scully will carry the third congress
sional district by 5000 or 1000.
