If Hair is Turning
Gray, Use Sage Tea
Don't look old! Try Grandmother's
recipe to darken and beautify
faded, lifeless hair.

That beautiful, even shade of dark,
glossy hair can only be had by brewing
a mixture of Sage Tea and sulphur.
Your hair Is your charm. 1t makes or
mars the face. When it fades, turns
gray, streaked and looks dry, wispy and
scraggly, just an application or two of
Sage and Sulphur enhances its appear
ance a hundredfold.
Don't bother to prepare the tonic: you
can get from any drug store 5o-cent
bottle of "Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Hair
Remedy" ready to use. This can al
ways be depended upon to bring back
the natural color, thickness and lustre
of your hair and remove dandruff, stop
scalp itching and falling hair.
Everybody uses "Wyeth's' Sage and
Sulphur because it darkens so naturally
and evenly that nobody can tell it has
been applied. You simply dampen a
sponge or soft brush with 1t and draw
this through the hair. taking one small
strand at time; by morning the gray
hair has disappeared, and after another
application 1t becomes beautifully dark
and appears glossy. lustrous and abun-

MUNICIPAL COURT.
ArchilIas Dostie Arraigned for Not
Sending Children to School.

Archillas Dostie was before the munich
pal court Tuesday afternoon to answer
to a charge of not keeping his children in
school, to which he pleaded not guilty.
In his story to the court the respondent
explained that he had been sick for two
weeks on account of an injury received
at the pulp mill, but the school records
showed that the children had been out
of school as much before the time on
which he claimed to have been hurt as
they had since.
The court drew from the respondent
the fact that he had been spending
money regularly for liquor and advised
him that 1t would be better to buy shoes
for the children, who had none, instead
of wasting it for rum. The court pointed
out to him the penalty for keeping the
children from school. and he promised
to do better. Arrangements were also
made whereby the children will be sup
piled with shoes and Dostie will pay
when he gets work The case was then
continued for two weeks.

has been done in the way of fitting up
St Mary's hall in the building on up

used as a repository by E. E. Marsen
is only the beginning of extensive al

which will be the establishment of a
parocnial school. The hall is on the
lower floor Of the building and the
two upper floors will be finished off
and equipped for school purposes. The
building. which is located on the lot
north of st. Mary's church, has been
piped for steam and will be heated
from the plant at the church. IT will
also be fitted with fire escapes and all
modern conveniences. 1t is also r.nder

STOP CATARRH!
Unless Properly Treated With Hyomei
This Disease May Become Serious.

II you have catarrh, usually indicat-
ed by shifting, stopped up head, drop
pings in throat, watery eyes, and
morning choking, there is an irritated
state of the mucous membrane which
affords an ideal condition for the
growth of disease germs, especially
those of consumption. f...
Do not allow the dangerous germs
which may be breathed into the throat
and lungs to begin their work of de-
struction.
The easiest, simplest, quickest, sur
est and cheapest way to check catarrh
is by the direct method. breathing Hy-
omei. This wonderful medicated air
treatment does not drug and derange
the stomach, but is breathed IN
through the Hyomei inhaler directly
following and surely destroying all dis
ease germs that may have been inhal-
ed-heals and vitaliZes the tissues of
the throat, nose and lungs SO as to eff
fectively render catarrh infections no
longer possible.
The unusual way in which Hyomei is
sold by Bowditch & Webster Co. is the
best evidence of confidence in the
treatment, and dispels all doubts as
to it's curative properties. Money re-
funded to anyone whom Hyomei fails
to benefit. A complete outfit, including
inhaler and bottle of liquid, costs but
s100. Extra bottles of liquid, if later
needed, so cents. Druggists every
where sell Hyomei.
