Rave DARK HAIR
AND LOOK YOUNG.
Nobody can Tell when you Darken
Gray, Faded Hair with
Sage Tea.

Grandmother kept her hair beauti.
fully darkened. glossy and abundant
with brew OF Sage Tea and Sulphur.
Whenever her fair fell out or took on
that dull, faded or streaked appear
ance. this simple mixture was applied
with wonderful effect. BY asking at
any drug store for "Wyeth's Sage and
Sulphur Compound" you will get q
large bottle of this old-t1me recipe,
ready to use. for about so cents. This
simple mixture can be depended upon
to restore natural color and beauty to
the hair and is splendid for dandruff,
dry. itchy scalp and. falling hair.
A well-known downtown druggist
says everybody uses Wyeth's Sage
and Sulphur, because it darkens 50
naturally and evenly that nobody can
tell It has been applied-it's so easy
to use, too. You simply dampen .
comb or soft brush and draw Il
through your hair, taking one strand
at time. By morning the gray hair
disappears: after another application
or two, 1t is restored to its natural
color and looks glossy, soft and abun-
dant.

UNITED Press Leased Wire Service
AKRON, Ohio, Sept. 29.-Police and
detectives working all night on the
mysterious murder of Winnie Becker
young and pretty girl clerk in a local
tea store, had failed to solve the
crime early today.
customer who entered the tea
store late yesterday found the girl IN
an adjoining room with a heavy hat
Chef imbedded three inches deep IN
her skull and suffering other wounds
but still breathing.
The weapon had lodged so firmly
that ordinary hands could not remove
it. The girl died, when it was re-
moved at a hospital. The victim was
alone in the store, which Is owned by
her brother, when assaulted. /, A. des,

tered weapon was held together by
nails while the edges had been whit
tied sharp with knife This, detec-

crime was premeditated and presum-
ably the work of a fanatic. The muir
derer had hacked his victim with the
tomahawk repeatedly j. as shown by
bruises, on the body. Then finding
this ineffective to more than stun her,
he grabbed a heavy steel Ratchet
nearby and finished the bloody work.
