For FreCkIes, Sun
burn and Skin
ImperfeCtion

What to do with them-and what
to do about them, has been the vital
woman's question. Luckily the Pure
Food and Drugs Act has come to the
rescue and has made it illegal to sell
preparations designed to bleach the
skin containing injurious acids and
corrosive sublimate.
Therefore, we feel the readers of
the NEWS will welcome the news
that the West End Pharmacy, u
progressive druggists, have secured
the agency for Perth Amboy of
Whites Skynbleach. a peroxide
cream, composed mostly of Earth
Alkaline PerOXides and which con-
tains no acids or injurious sub
stances of any kind.
1t does its work by reason of the
fact that when rubbed on the skin,
previously moistened with warm
water, the free and active oxygen
which thereby becomes released not
only bleaches the skin but thorough
ly disinfects as well. The person
afflicted with discolored skin and
wishing to obtain that creamy white
skin so much to be desired, will find
~Skynbleach a most valuable, efficient
and simple preparation to use.
Ask the West End Pharmacy to
satisfy you hat Skynbleach will re-
store "harmlessly' your normal
complexion and skin,

YOUR GRAY HAIRS
QUICKLY VANISH
A Harmless Remedy, Made From
Garden Sage, Restores Color
to Gray Hair.

A feeling of sadness accompanies
the discovery Of the first gray hairs
which unfortunately are looked upon
as heralds of advancing age. Gray
hair, however handsome it may be,
makes a person look old. We all
know the advantages Of being young.
Aside from the good impression q
youthful appearance makes on 9TH
ers, simply knowing that you are
looking fit" gives n courage to
undertake and accomplish things.
So why suffer the handicap of look
king old on account Of gray hairs,
when a simple remedy will give your
hair youthful color and beauty in a
few days tine?
Most people know that common
garden sage acts as a color restorer
and scalp tonic as well. Our grand
mothers used a "Sage Tea" for keep
ing their hair dark, soft and luxu-
RANT. In Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur
Hair Remedy we have an ideal pre-
paration of Sage, combined with Sui
phur and other valuable remedies
for dandruff, itching scalp and thin,
weak hair that is split at the ends
or constantly coming out. A few
applications of this valuable remedy
will bring back the color, and in a
short time it will remove every trace
Of dandruff and greatly improve the
growth and appearance of the hair.
Get a fifty cent bottle from your
druggist today, and notice the differ
ence In your hair after a few days
treatment. All druggists sell 1t, I'M
der guarantee that the money will
be refunded If the remedy is not ex-
actly as represented. Agent-Lauer

e0ljoHT ON VEGETABLE DIET
Great Warriors Of Homer Were Not
Sufferers From insufficient Do
mestio Help.

The heroes Of Homer prepared their
food with their own hands, and were
not, therefore, sufferers from insult
cient domestics. II the happy SIM
plicity OF the Homerio ages, writes Mr..
F. w. lakewood in Good Cheer"
the great heroes who dealt such ter
rible blows, leaving death and desc
lation behind them, when they re-
posed after their exploits, partook Of
of hominy lentils.
1t may be difneult to imagine Do
msdes In the act Of peelinE an onion
or Achilles washing cabbage. But al
though the wise Ulysses roasted, with
his own hands, a sirloin Of beef, veae-
tables occupied the most conspicuous
Places at all the great banQrets Of an
.ieAt Greece.
Parsley formed the crown with
which Hercules. IS oonQueror Of the
NemeAn lion, crowned himself; Ana
creon celebrates The plant A. the en-
blsm Of Joy and fsstivity. Fable makes
parsley the food OF oourssrs; the war
,tors Of Homer fed their chargers with
1t for battle.
The cabbage WAS adorned by the
Egyptians, who raised affairs to IT.
Afterward they made this strange god
the first dish In their repast. Tho
Greeks and Romans ascribed to it the
happy quality Of preserving from
drunkenness. and looked upon 1t as a
sovereign remedy against paralysis.
Alexander found the onion In Egypt,
where the Hebrews had learned to like
1t. He had it cultivated in Greece,
and given as food to his troops. in
the belief that 1t excited rnartial ar
dor. Wbosoever wishes to preserve
his health, says an ancient saw, should
eat every morning, before breakfast,
young onions and honey. But this
does not sound like a very tempting
preservative.
Asia 10 said to be the native soil OF
the asparagus. Yet the Romans cult
waited it with such marvellous success
that the stalks raised at Ravenna are
said to have weighed three pounds
each, and we are asked to believe that
