COULD HAVE SAVED MONEY

You can save money by spending
it right, as well as by laying it
aside
For instance there are many peo-
PIE who do not buy the right medi-
cine for their ailments, and pay
out many dollars before they learn
just what to do.
Mrs. Alex Dumas, of Malone, N.
Y. knows this now. She says: "A
very heavy cold settled on my lungs
last winter and for three months |
coughed almost constantly Al
night I could hardly get any sleep
I tried several medicines but non,
of them did me any good. Then
thought I would use Vinol and /
began to help my cough from a
most the first dose.
81 do not cough at all now, I ca
sleep we'll and have gained muc
strength, all because l took yol
splendid tonic"
When you buy Vinol for yoi
| cough, or to build you up, you al

| ment with any others. We guaran
tee Vino1 to do you good, and will

hearsals for "Mr. Bob" which Will
hold the boards at the opera house

usually attempted in home talent
affairs. Mr.. and Mrs. Adams, who

the Elks are highly pleased and ex-
pect this to be the best show ever
given by them and that the town IS
enthusiastic over Mr.. Bob"

eRANDMoTHER's SECRET.
To Darken the Hair and Restore Nat
 ural Color.

It is easier to preserve the color of the hair than to restore 1t, although it is possible to do both. Our grand mothers understood the secret. They made a 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 oux grandInothers in using sage tea" for their hair and are fast following suit.
 The present generation has the ad- vantage of the past in that 1t can get ready -to-use preparation called Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Hair Rem edy. As a scalp tonic and color re- storer this preparation is vastly su- perior to the ordinary sage tea' made by our grandmothers.
 The growth and beauty of the haiI depend on healthy condition of the scalp. Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur HaiI Remedy quickly kills tho dandrufi germs which rob the hair of it's life color and lustre, makes the scalp clean and healthy. gives the hair strength color and beauty, and makes it grow.
