NO MORE GRAY HAIR. Sage and Sulphur Remedy For oand. ruff? Faded and Gray Hair.

The old idea of using Sage for dark ening the hair is again coming in vogue. Our grandmothers had dark, glossy hair at seventy-five, while our mothers are gray before they are fifty, Our grandmothers kept their hair soft and glossy with a Sage Tea" which also restored the natural color
 One objection to using such a prepar- ation was the trouble of making 1t. This objection has been overcome by the Wyeth Chemical Company of New York, who has placed on the market a superior preparation of Sage, combined with Sulphur and other valuable reme- dies for dandruff, itching scalp, and thin, weak falling hair.
 The beauty of the hair depends more on its rich, even shading than any thing else. Don't have dry, harsh fad ed hair. when simple, harmless rem edy will bring back the color In a few days; and don't be tormented with dandruff, itching scalp and loose, fall ing hairs. Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Hair Remedy will quickly correct these troubles, and give color, strength and beauty to your hair.

 Saloons Enough Already.
 It was rumored here Tuesday that other persons than those now licensed to do a liquor business in Killingly will make applications for license during the coming year, but 1t is certain that these will meet with remonstran- ces, for it is considered that the num- Der of places in town at present is sufficient.
 Democratic Caucuses.
 The democrats of Brooklyn have is- sued notices for a caucus Saturday for the purpose of nominating candi- date for representative, judge of pro bate, justices of the peace, etc. The democrats of KilIingly have selected a week from Saturday as the time for doing similar party business.
 Ballot Better Understood.
 Reports from various Windham county towns show that the new bal lot has become better understood. As general rule. not so many ballots were thrown out this year for i'm proper markings, rnutilations, etc., as has been the case in other years, but in Plainfield the voters again turned in an excessive number of ballots of the kind that have to be discarded.
 Three License Towns. For the first time in many years KillMgly, Putnam and Plainfield are license towns at the same time. This fact should remove much of the com plaint that drinkers from no-license territory within the limits of the area mentioned have been in the habit of going into the license area and creat- ing disturbances at time It will be a case of everybod looking out for his ewn troubles this year.
