FEW FULKS Have
GRAY HAIR NOW
DRUGGIST SAYS LADIES ARE U.s.
ING RECIPE OF SAGE TEA
AND SULPHUR.

Hair that loses its color and lustre,
CT when it fades, turns gray, dull and
lifeless, is caused by lack of sulphur
in the hair. Our grandmother made
up a mixture of Sage Tea and Sulphur
to keep her locks dark and beautiful,
and thousands of women and men who
value that even color, that beautiful
dark shade of hair which is so attrac-
tice, use only this old-tlme recipe.
Nowadays we get this famous mix
ture by asking at any drug store for
a so cent bottle of 'Wyeths Sage and
Sulphur Hair Remedy" which darkens
the hair so naturally, so evenly, that
nobody can possibly tell it has been
applied. Besides, it takes off dandruff,
stops scalp itching and falling hair.
You just dampen a sponge or soft
brush with it and draw this through
your hair, taking one small strand al
time. By morning the gray hair dis
appears; but what delights the ladies
with Wyeth's Sage and sulphur is that
besides beautifully darkening the hail
after few applications, it also brings
back the gloss and lustre and gives i
an appearance of abundance.

The details of his reception are necessarily held in abeyance on that account
 In general way 1t is expected that the secretary will be met at the station by the mayor, the committee of the fair directors, which includes the pres tdent and possibly a few other distin- guished residents of Hartford The ford club for luncheon, if his arrival is at-that hour that Is convenient for this, and it is probable that Hatch s First Infantry band which will be on duty at the opening Of the fair will precede the secretary's carriage or mo- tor from the station to the club. It may be that, as was the case with Colonel Roosevelt last year and with President Taft the year before, the brexity of time which the secretary can spend in Hartford will make it necessary to go directly from the sta ton to the park, where the secretary will deliver his address President Dover will be unable to reach a de- cision as to these details until he hears definitely from the secretary as to the hour of his arrival.
 At the park, Mayor Cheney, who is a the fair 3SROci fiOT1 will introduce Congressman Lonergan who will in turn present the seer retary to the fair audience
 EXHIBITS WITHOUT NUMBER.
 As a sample of the relative increase in the number of exhibits at the fa,iI this year. it might be mentioned thai in the poultry department there are 1,656 individual exhibits as against S0t a year ago.
 CATTLE
 In the cattle department, with thr ee big barns built, there are now indica- tions of an overflow, and additional accommodations must be provided fol the splendid herds which have been entered. The list, as examined by Su- perintendent Frederick E. Duffy, in c1udes the finest herds in the United States. For the accommodation of the ] ducks in the poultry department, one side of the building has been removed and a pond forty feet square is being created, so that the ducks can splash 1 and prune themselves for the edif1ca- l tfon of the visitors. The flower show will be a dream of beauty. In addition to the attractive designs in horticuI- ture created by Alexander T. Cum ming, formerly of the Hartford city park department, Pearsons of Cromwell has a corps Of artists preparing a spe- ciaI exhibit.

W3eh the opening of the great Con- necticut fair and grand circuit races at Charter Oak Park but a few days away, the 4headquar ters of the fair as sociation in the Hartford Trust build ing Is shrouded in the feverish atmos- Ishere of a national poll ttca1 headquar- ters, with. election day almost at hand. A score Of typists are banging away on the keys classifying exhibits, and arranging entries, a corps of clerks is answering telephone calls and meeting g the inquirfes of exhibitors and the thousand and one other folks who have business win the fair. It seems to the visitor that t1eAo office is simply swamp ed with business. and there must be confusion everywhere. But the man agers of the big annual event are not Showing any evidence of despair. While busy they are happy. There has never been so many exhibits for the fair, there has never been such attractions booked for the Mfdway-and this year the entire Midway layout and the ar ranzeInent of the buildings for the ex- hfbits is new and thereshas never been R time 1n the history of the Charter Oak tracks when so many of the big trainers and their stables had come on here a week ahead to prepare for the gruel1ing struggles for the stake race championships and the small fortunes which are to be distF ibuted-
 COMING OF SECRETARY DANIELS.
 And in addition there is to be the gIamor of Labor Day, the opening day, of the presence of member of the cabinet Of President Woodrow Wilson, the secretary of the navy, the Hon. Josephus Daniels. The fair managers have outlined the arrangements for the .receptio ion of the secretary of the navy. but the plans are dependent upon ad- vices from the secretary as to the hour .sf his arrival and of his departure for Washington. There are days when the atmosphere at Washington is reeking with big things, and the men who are in charge Of the government are not desirous of being away from the na- tional capitol for many hours at a time. The secretary of the navy, un- doubted1y, is keenIy alive to the pos abilities of the Mexican situation, and it is an open secret that the war dogs of Uncle Sam's fleet are being man euvered so that they will be within early call The fair people feel that 6eeseta ESS J 2s nieIs 1s paysnEsa fine com plimentI to Connecticut 10 come to the great fair in the midst of the threaten ing c0mphca tIons. and they. are desir- --Ss-
