Philadelphia, Pa.-One of the most
encouraging movements within the
walls of the Philadelphia General Hos

the training of the insane While
this is being taken up by the physi-
clan and nurses in charge, and while
insane patients are being given, under
the supervision of Miss NJ. E. Turner,
supervisor of the womans department,
a new vision of life and a new oppor-
tunity for forgetting their maladies,
great credit for the occupational work
done in the insane department is due
20 the Association for the employment
of the insane.
The association will hold a sale of
patients work at lis South Thirteenth
street, which will demonstrate the ca
pacity of the insane for artistic
achievement. The work includes many
varieties of handicrafts, embroideries,
basket weaving, matmaking and kin.
dred occupations, the introduction of
which have completely changed the
patients outlook upon life, and has
proved the immense value in main
tanning discipline in the hospital
So thoroughly have the physicians
in charge of the insane department
appreciated the value of the occupa-
tional training for patients that they
have encouraged the association to
employ an instructor of handicrafts,
who gives regular attention to the
work.

While the work of the association
dates back TO 1896, it has taken on

Blockley. Those in charge of the sale
are particularly anxious that it should
be a success, for the money realized
will go toward carrying on the work
during the coming year and providing
funds for the monthly balls given to
the patients.

RECEIVERS LONG LOST WATCH
Eighteen Years in Mill Race and Still
Runninq?

Penn Yam, n. Y.-One lay eighteen
years ago w. Henry Townsend, coun-
ty superintendent of the poor, lost a
watch from his pocket. He worked
at TWO tasks that day assisting IN
cleaning out mill race and unload
ing straw. He searched the straw
without finding the timepiece. The
mill race was soon full of water so
that further search could not be made
A few days ago the race was clean
ed out and a watch was found. Town
send examined it and found in it his
old timepiece. 1t was in excellent
condition after its long rest under the
water.
One of the officials friends asked
him If the watch was still running and
Mr.. Townsend gravely replied that it
surely was. 1t was stem winder, he
said and very likely the action of the
swiftly running water kept it wound
up all these years.

COMB SAGE TEA IN
HAIR TO DARKEN IT
It's Grandmother's Recipe to
keep her Locks Dark,
Glossy, Beautiful.

The old-time mixture of Sage Tea and
Sulphur for darkening gray, streaked
and faded hair is grandmother's recipe,
and folks are again using it TO keep their
hair a good, even color, which is quite
sensible, as we are living in an age when
youthful appearance is of the greatest
advantage.
Nowadays, though, we don't have the
troublesome task of gathering the sage
and the mussy mixing at home. All
drug stores sell the ready-to-use product,
improved by the addition of other ingred-
tents, called "Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur
Compound" for about so cents bottle
1t is very popular because nobody can
discover it has been applied. Simply
moisten your comb or a soft brush with
it and draw this through your hair, tax
ing one small strand at time; by morn
ing the gray hair disappears, but what
delights the ladies with Wyeth's Sage
and Sulphur Compound, is that, besides
beautifully darkening the hair after
few applications, it also produces that
soft lustre and appearance of abundance
which is so attractive. This ready-to-use
preparation is delightful toilet requisite
for those who desire a more youthful APP
pearance. 1t is not intended for the cure,
mitigation or prevention of disease.

against the real thing when they

being made off him. The big
feature of the game was the field
ing of Williams for Butler. He
started the first inning by maxi

ceeded to redeem himself by play
ing the fastest game at short ever
seen in this city. He got them
anywhere and his pcggig to first
was perfect. Craig had charge Of
the team on the field and his old
head was invaluable to the boys.
The only had feature Of the game
was the light attendance. Butler
has the fastest team in it's history
and has games matched with some
of the fastest teams i'm this part
