Darken tIeHair
A Little Sage and Sulphur
Makes Gray Hair Van
ish-A Remedy for
All Hair Troubles.

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 it in the hair is
held by many scalp specialists
to be connected with loss of
color and vitality of the hair.
Unquestionably, there is no bet
ter remedy for hair and scalp
troubles, especially premature
grayness. than Sage and Sulphur,
if properly prepared.
The Wyeth Chemical Com
pany of New York put out an
ideal preparati, IN of this kind,
called Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur
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 its 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 it according to the simple
directions, and see what differ
ence a few days treatment will
make in the appearance of your
hair.
All druggists sell it, under
guarantee that the money will
be refunded if the remedy is
not exactly as represented.
Agent, James O'Donnell.

TO MAKE A BOY TIDY.
BY RUTH CAMERON.

Two mothers were comparing notes on
the habits of their respective sons.
Said one mother with a sigh:
oh / do wish Philip were as tidy as
your boy. 1 never saw anything neater
than your boys room. And those dainty
curtains and that nice rug. / shouldn't
any more dare have things like that in
Philips room. They'd be ruined in no
time. Why Philip
For several minutes the other mother
listened to category Of Philips sins of
untidiness-how he tracked mud into his
room, put his feet upon the chairs, kept
his bureau perpetually Uttered. his shoes
scattered about the room and his clothes
draped over the furniture. Finally, at
a slight pause, she managed to put in,
Mark used to be just like that"
why l thought he was naturally or

to be such a sight that l dreaded to go
into it. I'd lecture him almost every day,
but it didn't do the slightest good.

rugs in Marks ROOM" she said. We'll,

more the other way around. He is neat
and careful because they are there.
You see, went up into my boys
room one morning to clean up after he
had gone to school, and 1t was in such
a state Of disorder that I was really dis
couraged He ought to live in the barn
instead of the house. / said to myself.
And then, as cleaned it. somehow l got
to thinking. and ! looked around the
room and realized it wasn't so unlike a

carpet was threadbare, the furniture was

there was really nothing to inspire the
boy with desire to keep the place neat
and tidy.
MY husband and 1 had a conference
that night. and the next day l started
to make Marks room as pretty as the
girls. And positively ii hurt me to see
how pleased he was. You see. ! had al
ways been foolish enough to think that
boys didn't care. Well. to make lone
story short Mark lives up to his room
