Be PRETTY! TURN
GRAY HAIR DARD.
Grandma's Recipe Of Sage Tea and
Sulphur Darkens 30 Naturally
That Nobody Can Tell.

Almost everyone knows that Sage
Tea and Sulphur, properly compoun-
ded, brings back the natural color
and lustre to the hair when faded,
streaked or gray; also ends dandruff,
itching scalp and stops falling hair.
Years ago the only way to get this
mixture was to make it at home,
which is mussy and troublesome.
Nowadays. by asking at any drug
store for "Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur
Hair Remedy" you will get a large
bottle of this famous old recipe for
about SO cents.
Don't stay gray. Try it. No one
can possibly tell that you darkened
your hair. as 1t does 1t SO naturally
and evenly. You dampen a sponge
or soft brush with it and draw 1t
through your hair. taking one small
strand at time; by morning the
gray hair disappears, and after an
other application or two, your hair
becomes beautifully dark, thick and
glossy. s-r -z

1t is trying enough for q young
man to stand before q priest and hear
the words that unite him and his
fiance in marriage. But 1t is more
trying to be paraded through the
streets in an animal cage followed by
a crowd of jeering. tormenting fel-
low workmen.
Last night A. billiard King. dis
trict clerk OF the Mountain States
Telephone & Telegraph Company,
was married to Miss Frances Lou
Elliott. Mr.. and Mrs. King had been
married but a few minutes when
they were roughly seized and thrust
into a horrid old cage. They really
wanted a few seconds alone. But no
such luck. The well-laid plans Of the
telephone bunch had to be carried
out to the letter.
For days the telephone boys had
detectives" shadowing both the
King and Claim residence, watching
every move OF the young cople soon
to be married.
This is the life;" Good bye
boys,'-such signs were hung about
the cage that held captive Mr.. and
Mrs. King. The couple was hauled
up and down Commercial and Main
streets and through Kit Carson Park.
At the park huge crowd viewed the
timid newlweds who hovered in one
corner of the cage hardly cognizant
Of what trans9ired.
A few weeks before Mrs. King was
married she remarked to friend.
that telephone bunch won't slip
anything over on u.s." Someone
overheard the remark and reported 1t
to friend at the telephone office.
AS a result the boys enjoyed them
selves immensely at the expense of
Mr.. and Mrs. King.
This morning Dillard said. "Oh.

proprietor OF the Savoy hotel. whom
he shot on May 6 last. The jury re-
turned verdict of first degree mur-

penalty.
Chances of freedom, fond hopes
cherished through the long trial. ex-
pectations woven of desire for the
best. belief built up on the assur-
ances of friends who thought the
case would surely go for the defense
all these crashed to the ground last
night at 1920 o'clock when the
clerk of the West Side court read
in formal monotonous tones the
words by which the twelve men
passed Judgment on their fellow.
They decreed that Bulger should
hang for the killing of Lloyd F
Nicodemus, one of, the proprietors Of
the Savoy hotel, on the afternoon O
May 6 last.
Colonel Bulger, the soldier of fort.
