SAGE AND SULPHUR
 DkRKENs GRAY HAIR Brush this through faded, IifsIsss locks and they become dark,
 glossy, youthful.

Hair that loses its color and Iustre, or when it fades turns gray, dull and Iifeless, is caused by a 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 beau tiful dark shade of hair which is so attractive, use only this old-time re- cipe.
 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 dandr7uff, stops scalp itching and falling hair. You just dampen a sponge or soft brush with 1t and draw this through your hair, taking one small strand at time. By morning 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 applications, 1t also brings back the gloss and lustre and gives it ah appearance of abund- af1ce.

SEC. HILL SPOKE
 AT SHOP MEETING.
Says One of Greatest Needs of World
 is Upright Men.

One of the greatest needs of the world in which we live is real upright men; not that we cannot find good ly number of such but the world needs an increasing number of men who are dominated by the spirit of service to their fellows, said General Secretary Edwin Hill of the r. NJ c. A in hds talk at the shop meeting held Wednes- day noon in the Richmond Radiator company.
 Continuing Secretary Hin said:
 There are certain tests by which we can measure our manhood and we do we'll at times to apply these tests. The first great test of manhood is love and if our manhood measures tip to this test we are truly manly. We speak of love to God and pity the man, whose heart does not go out in gratitude to his maker. but unless we have a warm love for our fellowmen our professed love for God may just Iy be questioned for we read In holy writ, If ye do not love man whom ye see. how can ye love God whom you have not seen."
 We do we'll to ask ourselves: What is our relations to our fellowrnen ? Many of them are for less fortunate our interest and our heart love and service; that man who lives for num- | Der one with never care for Che | other fellow Is not measuring up to l the supreme test or love.
 Another test of manhood is faith. No man can live as he should without a strong faith in God, who gives us | every good thing. We should also i have faith in other men; many a poor fellow has gone down because no one has manifested faith in him | and on the other hand because some | one has believed in him many a man has risen from the slough of de- spair' and has become a noble char | acter
 | Endurance is also a test of man. | hood; any man can be true when all | goes well but when difficulties come | and the problems arise and when
 strong temptations sweep down upon
 us then it is hard to maintain our
 manhood.
 The last test I shall mention Is purity of life and this is indeed a very | vital test for unless a man is pure
 he cannot lay claim to true manhood The only way to be pure in life is tc
 have pure thoughts and the only way | to have pure thoughts Is keep con-
 stantly in touch with the pure Christ
 indeed his power Is the only power bS
 which we can measure fully up to the
 requirements of true manhood.
