The contest to the fling of the will will
probably be taken up within week.
The property of the deceased is
valued at close to $4,000 and under
the terms Of the will, which has been
proposed for probate, the property is
left in trust for the benefit of two
minor daughters of Mr.. Schulz.
Charles E. Schulz, who has filed the con-
test to the will, was a child by form
er marriage. Mr.. Schulz in the last
days of his father had been associated
with him in the management of the
store on Park street, but the father
had made his home with the two
daughters and they had charge Of all
his household affairs for many years
before his death.
In his objections to the probate of the
will the son declares that his father
had for years suffered from decisions
against one or more of his children.
He asserts that this diseased and NOR
bid condition of his mind had existed
for many years prior to the time of his
death and that the condition finally led
up to the father being adjudicated in
sane in the county court and sent to
the state hospital at Mendoza for treat
ment. In his formal protest against
the will being admitted to probate the
son declares that he had at one time
been ;ss.s=;sed by his father that proper
care would be taken of him in his will
and he holds that this promise would

Engineer A. R. Hirst, chief Of the

count of the actions of some Of the

Under the the provisions of the will

SLEEPY EYE LOSES TWO GOOD
CITIZENS.

Michael Cavanaugh, who passed away
on Wednesday last was buried at St.
Mary's cemetery on Saturday, Rev
Klein conducting the funeral services
The deceased was born in Ireland,
in 1929 and came to the United States
when young man, settling in Con-
necticut. Later he came west, settling
in Wisconsin. In the 7O's he came to
Brown County and settled on farm
in Mulligan, where he remained for a
few years. In 1884 after his first wife
died he moved to Sleepy Eye
where he made his home until death.
After coming to Sleepy Eye to live he
married Mrs. Mclaughlin, who passed
away between Christmas and New
Years year ago. He was the father
of four sons and one daughter, Arthur
and John of Malta, Mont, James and
Maggie whose address is not known to
us. Another son died some years ago.
For the past year or more the old gentle
man gradually failed in health and his
death was entirely due to old age and
general infirmity. He was man of de
cided opinions and strong convictions
and was to some extent an eccentric
character. Those who intimately know
him, speak kindly of him as an honest
and upright citizen and neighbor.
Christian J. Smith, a stone mason
by trade, and for the past thirty years
resident Of Sleepy Eye, where he piled
his craft, passed away at his home here
last Sunday after a lingering illness of
one year from dropsy. Mr.. Smith was
seventy-two years at the time of his
death. He was born in Denmark and
emigrated to America at the age Of about
thirty years, coming to New Ulm. A
few years later he was united in marriage
at that place to Miss Catherine Soren-
son, and shortly afterwards the couple
moved to this city, where they have
since made their home. Besides his
wife, five children also survive the de-
ceased. They are: Julius at home;
Christ, engaged in the automobile re-
pair work in St. Paul; Mrs. E. w. Berg,
also Of St. Paul; Mrs. Chas. Engelking
OF Albin township, Brown County,
and Miss Carrie who stays at home.
The deceased was well-known in this
city and vicinity and had the reputation

If HAIR IS TURNING
GRAY, USE SAGE TEA
Don't look old! Try Grandmother
recipe to darken and beautify
faded, lifeless hair.

That beautiful, even shade Of dark,
glossy hair can only be had by brewing
mixture of Sage Tea and Sulphur.
Your hair is your charm. It makes or
mars the face. When it fades, turns
gray, streaked and looks dry, wispy and
scragggly, just an application or two of
Sage and Sulphur enhances it's appear
ance hundredfoli.
Don't bother to prepare the tonic; YOU
can get from any drug store so cent
bottle of "Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur
Hair Remedy" ready to use. This can
always 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 it and draw
this through the hair, taking one small
strand at q time; by morning the gray
hair has disappeared, and after another
application it becomes beautifully dark
and appears glossy, lustrous and album
dant.
