few FOLKS HAVE
GRAY HAIR NOW
Well-known local druggist says every
body is using old-time recipe of
Sage Tea and Sulphur.

Hair that loses its color and lustre, or
when it fades, turns gray, dull and life
less, is caused by lack of sulphur in
the hair. Our grandmother made up a
mixture of Sage Tea 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 mixture
by asking at any drug store for so
cent bottle of ''Wyeth IS Sage and Sui
phur 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 u sponge or soft brush with ii
and draw this through your hair, taking
one small strand at 4 time. BY morn
ing the gray hair disappears; but what
delights the ladies with Wyeth S Sage
and Sulphur is that, besides beautifully
darkening the hair after a few appliea
tions, it also brings back the gloss and
lustre and gives it an appearance oil
abundance.

IF KIDNEYS ACT
BAD TAKE SALTS
Says Backache is a sign you have been
eating too much meat, which
forms uric acid.

When YOU wake up with bac kache
and duh misery in the kidney region it
generally means you have been eating
too much meat, saws well known au-
thority. Meat forms uric acid which
overworks the kidneys in their effort
TO filter it from the blood and they be-
como sort of paralyzed and loggy. When
your kidneys get sluggish and clog you
must relieve them, like you relieve
your bowels: removing all the body s
urinous waste, else you have bac kache,
sick headache, dizzy spells; your stom
ach sours tongue is coated, and when
the weather is bad you have rheumatic
twinges. The urine is cloudy, full of
sediment, channels often get sore, wa
ter scalds and you are obliged TO seek
relief two or three times during the
night.
Either consult good, reliable physi-
elan at once or get from yOur phar-
macist about four ounces of Jad Salts f;
take a tablespoonful in a glass of wa
ter before breakfast for a few days
and your kidneys will then act fine.
This famous salts is made from the
acid of grapes and lemon juice, com
bined with lithia, and has been used
for generations to clean and stimulate
sluggish kidneys, also to neutrahze
acids in the urine so it no longer irri-
tates, thus ending bladder weakness.
Jad Salts is life saver for regular
Nest caters. II is inexpensive, can
not injure and makes a delightful, eff
fervescent ithia-water drink.

to come straight from his heart His

Directed by a lad from the store,
