AIDES. DARkENYOURG GRAY HAIR
Use Grandma's Sage Tea and Sulphur
Recipe and Nobody Viii Know.

The use of Sage and Sulphur for re
storing faded, gray hair to its natural
color dates back to grandmother's
time. She used to keep her hair beau
tifully dark, glossy and abundant.
Whenever her hair fell out or took on
that dull, faded or streaked appear
ance, this simple mixture was applied
with wonderful effect.
But brewing at home is mussy and
out-of-date Nowadays, by asking at
any drug store for a so cent bottle Of
''Wyeth's Sage and SULPHUR Hair REM
edy,'' you will get this famous old
recipe which can. be depended upon
TO restore natural color and beauty to
the hair and is splendid for 1andruff,
dry feveish, itchy scalp and falling
hair
A well-known- downtown druggist
says it darkens the hair 50 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 your hair, taking one
strand at time. By morning the gray
hair disappears, and after another ap-
pIication or two, it becomes beautifully
dark, glossy, soft and abundant.

has shown, there has been great
revival of the religious spirit IN
France as a result OF the war. Is the
church likely to imperil that hopeful
revival by taking sides against
France? Could the Church abandon
it's mission as the impartial comfor,

low the will-o'-the-wisp of restora-

will do so are guilty of a very great
presumption. They do not understand
the function of the Catholic Church
in the world.
By the entrance into the war on the
side of the entente powers, the Italian
showed that they had the courage Of
their national hopes. Defeat for then
might, indeed. mean humiliation ant

loved ones went over Sea' ago never
to return. While some are dreaming
of peace. others in positions to steady
the situation see none in sight. The
