sage TEA WILL
DARKEN THE HAIR
Restore Faded and Gray Hair
to Natural Color-Dan-
druff Quickly Removed.

New York W

There is nothing new about
the idea of using Sage for re-
storing the color of the hair.
Our grandmothers kept their
hair dark, glossy and abundant
by the use of simple Sage
Tea" Whene -er their hair fell
out or took on a dull, faded or
streaked appearance, they made
a brew of Sage leaves, and ap--
piled it to their hair with Won
derfully beneficial effect.
Nowadays we don't have to
resort to the old-time tiresome
method of gathering the herbs
and making the tea. This is
done by skillful chemists better
than we could do it ourselves;
and all we have to do is to call
for the ready-made product,
Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Hair
Remedy. containing Sage in the
proper strength, with the addi-
ton of Sulphur, another old
time scalp remedy.
This preparation gives youth
full color and beauty to the hair,
and is. one of the best remedies
you can use for dandruff, dry,
feverish, itching scalp. and fall
ing hair Get a fifty-cent bottle
from your druggist today, and
you will be surprised at the
quick results. All druggists
sell it. under guarantee that the
money will be refunded if the
remedy is not exactly as repre-
sented. Agent, James O'Don-
nell. ..

hundred and f1fty-thousand-dollar armory
for the National Guard Of the District
of Columbia along the Mall In line with
the new National Museum between 18th

today. The bill was referred to the Sen

This starts a new movement In Con-

REPORT OF DR.. DAVIDSON
More Than $4,000 Premises in the
District Were Improved.

Movement Certified to
That Fact.
COLLECTING CARDS BIG TAS,

twenty-five thousand and nine pupils
Of the public schools of Washington par
ticipated in the city cleaning campaign
last month. OF that number o0s62
cleaned their own premises, according to
complete figures on the result of the
Juvenile crusade. made public today by
DR.. William NJ. Davidson. superintendent
Of schools.
The report shows the clean-up-at-home
movement to have been conducted on
much larger scale than was anticipated
at the time OF its Inauguration. and it is
doubtful II pupils Of the public schools
of any city ever have aided as much in
matters pertaining to civic sanitation.
In addition to the accomplishments of
the Juvenile crusade. DIR. Arthur l.. Muir
ray of the health department. secretary
Of the city cleaning campaign In which
the older members Of the community par
ticipated, estimates that that undertaking
resulted in the cleaning OF 10000 prem
ises.
This makes a total Of more than $4,000
premises cleaned-approximately half Of
the premises within the District which
are improved with dwellings.
Many Other Premises Improved.
In view Of the fact that hundreds of
homes were cleaned of which the cam
paign leaders have no record. owing to
the insufficient number of volunteers to
canvass the city and ascertain exactly
what results were being obtained. 1t is be-
| lieved that fully three-fourths Of the i'm
proved premises of the District were ben
Gifted by the cleanup campaign.
The crusade of the school children
! began prior to the city cleaning week.
which was held from April Is to 90 1t
| continued during the latter campaign
and practically through the remainder
of the month.
Several thousand cards used in con-
Quoting this crusade were furnished by
The Star. Bach pupil who received
| card was requested to clean his own
premises and, return the card certifying
that fact. The task OF collecting the
cards and tabulating the results has been
q big one, but the school authorities have
kept constantly at it, barely finishing
the report In time for its transmission
this afternoon to the central cleanup
committee which 1t is to meet for pur-
poses of permanent organization.
Dr.. Davidson's report shows that
certified to having cleaned their own
premises In the white schools 1.347
children certified to having assisted
in the campaign" The total showing
for the white schools was 12,455.
