/ AVE DARK HAIR
; and LOOK YOUNG.
Don't Stay Gray! Nobody Can
Tell When You Darker
Gray, Faded Hair with
Sage Tea and Sulphur.

I Grandmother kept her hair
beautifully darkened, glossy and
abundant with brew OF Sage Tea
and Sulphur. Whenever her hair
fell out or took on that dull, faded
or streaked appearance, this SIM
pie mixture was applied with Won
} derful effect. By asking at any
} drug store for "Wyeth's Sage and
Sulphur Compound" you will get
a large bottle of this old-time
recipe, ready to use, for about so
cents. This simple mixture can be
! depended upon to restore natural
J color and beauty TO the hair and
is splendid for dandruff, dry,
J itchy scalp and falling hair.
} A well known downtown drug
gist says everybody uses Wyeth's
Sage and Sulphur, because it(
darkens SO naturally and evenly
( that nobody can tell it has been
! applied-it's so easy to use, too.
You simply dampen a comb or
} soft brush and draw it through
your hair, taking one strand at a (
time. By morning the gray hair
disappears; after another applica-
ton or two, it is restored to its
natural color and looks glossy,y
( soft and abundant. :,

asked Mrs. Mains to look him up
good housekeeper. A housekeeper in a
family of two. Still we were deter
mined not to begin to find fault until
we had to. DR.. Scudder had trained
us to do our duty thoroughly.
The Ladies' Aid cleaned the parson-
age with their own hands. They just
made it shine inside and out. It's
pretty parsonage. too: light and roomy,
with everything perfectly convenient.
They had some of the rooms newly
papered and vanished. and they tackled
down new blue and white linoleum in
the kitchen. No sooner was all this
done than Mr.. Cooley's goods began to
arrive. / never saw SO much stuff in
my life. Some of the Arniture was
lovely. And there was box after box
of books. Mr. Cooley unpacked and
we helped him. He said he wanted
home ready for his wife when she came
into 1t. BY this time we had made up
our mind that we were going to have
another invalid like Mrs. Scudder upon
our hands. Nobody laughed at Miss
Jessup now when she talked about her
black cats in bags.
Well. everything was in fair shape
the day Mrs. Cooley came. A lot of
US had gone to the parsonage to well
come her and see about the dinner

to meet her and brought her back in a

Cooley got ou' and helped his wife Z"

glimpse of her Every one of us down
to Miss Jessup lost our breaths, il
seemed, forever.
For she was young-twenty- six or
so--and pretty and fashionable In a
way Westmore knew nothing about.
A gay smiling butterfly thing was NJ.
Cooley's wife. and our hearts sank
when we saw her. Whatever we're We
going to do with her? Miss Jessup
groaned right out loud. AS for Mrs.
Mains-she said afterward that shs
felt that she could never forgive him
for springing that kind of a surprise
on us.
He was the happiest looking man you
ever saw when he brought her In and
introduced her to US She was very
nice and pleasant. but oh, dear. we

RECIPE TO CLEAR
APIMPLY SKIN
Piimples Are Impurities Seek
ing An Outlet Through
Skin Pores.

I Pimples, sores and boils usually
(result from toxins, poisons and
impurities which are generated in
the bowels and then absorbed
Unto the blood through the very
ducts which should absorb only
}nourishment to sustain the body.
: 1t is the function of the kidneys
Ito filter impurities from the blood
}and cast them out i'll the form Of
(urine, but in many instances the
bowels create more toxins and im-
}purities than the kidneys can
eliminate, then the blood uses the
}skin pores as the next best means
of getting rid of these impurities
(which often break out all over the
}skin in the form of pimples.
The surest way to clear the skin
{of these eruptions, says noted
Authority, is to get from any phar-
(macy about four ounces of Jad
}Salts and take tablespoonful in
"a glass of hot water each MORN
ling before breakfast for one week.
}This will prevent the formation OF
TOXINS in the bowels. 1t also slim
}ulates the kidneys to normal ae-
}tivity, thus coaxing them to filter
the blood of impurities and clear
ling the skin of pimples.
( Jad Salts is inexpensive, harm
}less and is made from the acid of
{grapes and lemon juice, combined
with lithia. Here you have
pheasant, effervescent drink which
usually makes pinples disappear;
)cleanses the blood and is excellent
for the kidneys as we'll.

out OF place as a butterfly lowering
over a mud puddle. There is. curiously
enough, some affinity between mud
puddles and butterflies. but there seem
ed to be none Mt all between the
Bartles and Mrs. Cooley.
We bore with her. We had to. for
we all liked Mr.. Cooley so much. But
her frivolity and her uselessness made
US vince. She hadn't the least idea of
helping with church work. She hadn't.
1t appeared, the least idea of anything
save herself.
Three months after she came We had
an epidemic of scarlet fever. The
Bartle children started it, Three OF
an awful condition. Everybody was
scared to death. for you're never too
old to be subject to such disease as
that. Mrs. Mains went to Mr.: Cooley
You better send your wife away
where she'll be safe" she said
Mr.. Cooley just laughed. My dear
woman! Sylvester has had it. Besides.
she has nursed a good many cases OF
it. She was trained nurse. you see,
when l married her."
Why couldn't he have told us before?
Even Miss Jessup respected trained
nurse. They're rare in Westmore,
can tell you.
The time had come when Mrs. Cooley
was to prove her worth. She put on a
seersucker dress and a cap and she
brought them through. When she had
them on the safe side she went to the
Constables and SO right around the town.
1t didn't make a bit of difference
whether folks were CongregationaIists
or not. She went where she was
needed. And she saved lives. I am
convinced of that. Last of all Mrs.
Jessup came down with IL and Mrs.
Cooley nursed her She had two months
of 1t all told, and she was pretty tired
when at last the doctors got the best
of the epidemic. But never once did
she give up or falter. She was grit
through and through. And the night
the Aldriches' baby almost died she
fought for it with might and main.
'rll save her yet" she declared. when
old DR.. French told her she couldn't.
So that's the kind of parsonage lady
we have. 1 want to tell you We all
of us just glory in her now. We can't
love her enough. She said she was
afraid of us that day she came, but
she isn't now She has no need to be.
We'd all go through fire and water for
her-even Miss Jessup And when we
see her fiuttering by in her shimmery
gowns and bright hats. smelling like
roses. we smile after her and say to
ourselves:
Thank God for our parsonage ladyr'

THE EVENING STORY.
THE PARSONAGE LADY.
Copyright, 1915. by ". Werner,


When old DR.. Scudder retired from
the ministry and left tho Congrega-
tional Church without a pastor 1t was
no time at all before Mr.. Cooley was
the first candidate and the last. He
had pleased everybody. which Is say
ing a great deal, for some of us are
not easy to please. There's old Miss
Jessup, for instance. She is SO criti-
cal she will split hairs, as it were. Miss
Jessup liked Mr.. Cooley. She said
forty-five was the right age. He was
old enough to have had experience
handling people and not young enough
to be run after by silly women. He
was solid and sensible and gave a good
discourse, and he hadn't a disagree
able cough or he didn't use his hand
kerchief in the pulpit. All these things,
Miss Jessup said, were favorable in
dications that he would wear we'll
However" she added, when you hire
a minister, remember that you hire his
wife also. We're getting cat in the
bag with Mrs. Cooley, But I hope she
won't prove black cat"
None Of us had ever seen Mrs. Cooley
and MIR. Cooley did not say much about
her. So we were left to imagine her
any way we pleased. And the general
idea of her presently came to be that
she was stout, comfortable and middle
aged, like Mr.. Cooley himself; just the
sort of wife he should have. in fact.
Mrs Scudder was something of an in
valid. thin and weak voiced, SO, of
course, Mrs. Cooley wouldn't be like
her We did so want woman in the
parsonage who would go right ahead
and manage things, and take little
of the fret and worry of church keep
ing off our shoulders.
Mr.. Cooley came at once. Mrs.
Cooley, he said. would follow presently.
They had been boarding and their
