SAGE AND SULPHUR
 DARKENS GRAY HAIR
Brush This Through Faded, Lifeless Locks and They Become Dark,
 Glossy, Youthful.

Hair that loses it's color and lustre. or when it fades, turns gray, dull and lifeless, is caused by a lack of sul- phur in the hair. Our grandmother made up a mixture of Sage Tes. and Sulphur to keep her locks dark and beautiful, and thousands of women and men who value that even color. that beautiful dark shade of hair which is so attractive. use only this old-time recipe.
 Nowadays we get this famous mix ture by asking at any drug store for a 50 cent bottle Of "Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Compound which darkens the hair so naturally, so evenly, that nobody can possibly tell it has been applied. Besides, it takes off dandruff, stops scalp itching and falling hair. You just dampen a sponge or soft brush with it and draw this through your hair, taking one small strand at a time. By morning the gray hair disappears; but what delights the ladies with Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur is that besides beauti- fuIIv darkening the hair after few applications. it also brings back the gloss and lustre and gives 1t an ap- nearance of abundance.

Wednesday night Mr.. Strong suffer
ed with severe intermittent pains in his
face caused by neuralgia. Until 9
O'Clock Thursday morning he withstood
the pain, but it became so intense that
he decided to have all his teeth pulled
out and went to DR.. Fowler's office.
Here he was given immediate atten-
ton. After DR.. Fowler had pulled one
tooth the neurasthenia became worse
and the doctor decided to inject the
usual drug to relieve the pain. Short
ly after the injection was made he no.
ticed that Mr.. Strong was breathing
heavily and that he started to faint.
He did all that he could to revive his
patient, but his efforts failed. Mr..
Fowler then hurriedly called DR.. Glib
