SAGE AND SULPHUR
DARKENS GRAY HAIR
It's Grandmothcr's Recipe TO Restore
Color, Gloss and Thickness.

Hair that loses its color and lustre,
or when il fades. turns gray, dun and
lifeless, 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 mix
ture by asking at any drug store for
50-cent bottle OF "Wyeths Sage and
Sulphur Compound" which darkens
the hair so naturally, so evenly, that
nobody can possibly tell It has been
applied Besides. il takes of dand-
ruff. steps scalp itching and falling
hair. You just dampen a sponge or
soft brush with il and draw this
through your hair, taking one small
strand at time. BY morning the
gray hair disappears; but what de-
lights the ladies with Wyeth's Sage
and Sulphur is that, besides beauti-
fully darkening the hair after a few
applications. it also brings back the
gloss and lustre and gives il an ap-
pearance Of abundance.

Nothing more was ever heard OF

and were lost to sight and sound. Not
one OF them ever came back. Sir Ian
Hamilton's report.
Il is the talk of England, the great
est mystery OF the war. the charge OF
the Fifth Norfolks. the Kings own
servants. at Anafarta. The story OF
how these 26O ardent souls" charged
on through the village OF Anafarta and
completely vanished into the forest

day may take its place beside that
of the immortal tale OF Balaklava.
The Lost Legion" It is called to-
day, but until the war is over the fate
Of the men who went to battle from
the Kings Sandringham estates can
not be told. The King personally had
instituted every possible inquiry. The
American embassy In Constantinople
has asked the Turkish government.
The forest through which the Lost
Legion swept on in Gallipoli has been
searched time and time again
There have been found no bodies
no graves, no sign, except two small
pocketbooks. the property OF Captain
William Beck. who commanded the
Legion. Captain Beck is missing with
all OF his command.
Meantime scores OF cottage homes
in the royal Sandringham estates oil
West Norfolk are in mourning. Wives
sweethearts and mothers are wearing
crepe, but despite all this there is evel
the hope that some day the boys will
come marching home.
Perhaps they are prisoners OF tn,
Turks; perhaps they weren't killed a
all. and perhaps"-it's the hop,
against hope Of the women Of Wesi
Norfolk.
The Lost Legion" received its bap

Colonel Beauchamp was at thei
head with Captain Beck. The attacl

News has filtered through VII

prisoners in Constantinople. But
has developed that these men fel
wounded before the mysterious dark

Kidney, Bladder and Uric Acid troubles
bring misery to many. When the kidneys
are weak or diseased, these natural filters
do not cleanse the blood sufficiently, and
the poisons are carried to all parts OF the
body. There follow depression, aches
and pains, heaviness, drowsiness, irrita-
bility, headaches, chilliness and rheu-
matism. In some people there are sharp
pains in the back and loins, distressing
bladder disorders and sometimes obstinate
dropSy. The uric acid sometimes forms
into gravel or kidney stones. When the
uric acid affects the muscles and joints,
IL causes lumbago, rheumatism, gout or
sciatica. Write DR.. Pierce at once, send
10 cents for large trial package, or so cents
for full treatment OF Anuric" or ask your
druggist for IT,

that hour OF temptation Jesus Christ
has been calling you.
Yes, Christ has been calling to you
through your sorrows. There are
those here who have stood by the bed
side Of the dying. and the dead; you
have followed in the little procession
20 that hillside graveyard, and stood
by that grassy mound in the months
that followed, and. oh, the heart
aches and the loneliness in your life!
In that hour Of suffering and sorrow,
Jesus Christ has been calling 10 you.
So. my friend. II YOU are TO meet
Jesus, YOU must come down from
your indifference. your pride, your
unforgiveness, your stubbornness and
prejudice. Here we have a case of
two coming down. This business
man coming down from the tree. and
Jesus Christ coming down out Of
heaven. They meet down here, not
up there. Whenever you have seek
ing sinner and a seeking Saviour, you
have always but one result, the con-
version Of the sinner.

said. Nov. hereafter when / come

when he returned home. his little girl
was not there. He inquired of her
mother where she was. "Why, she is
over to our neighbors. She plead Sc

 Charles returned to his regiment and tried to devote all his mind to his duties, but he could not forget the sad girl in the cottage. So he went back there, and had few words with her this was followed by other visits, and his love increased every day. Peo- pie must have seen him going and coming and they told his relatives. A cousin of high estate hunted him up, and said:
 ''You surely know who the girl is you are visiting?"
 'I don't even know her name," said Charles, "brt I love her with all my heart"
 Come with me-" said the cousin, and Charles accompanied him to a large public square, where two crim- fnals were about to be executed.
 Look at the executioner," said the cousin.
 Charles looked as directed, and of a sudden fell so weak he had to leap on his cousins shoulder. His host of the little dark cottage was the executioner of Dieppe. Had the cousin been wise, he'd have said no more, but would have let the lesson sink in. But he felt it his duty to preach awhile. and In the course of his remarks he made some sighting remarks concerning Marguerite Jouanle the executioner's daughter. Charles strength came back as promptly as 1t had deserted him. His sword flashed in the sun.
 "Defend yourselfl" he cried; you are speaking of the lady love?"
 Then there was quite duel Charles was great swordsman. and the cousin was in parlous case, when a friend came to his rescue. Charles wounded both of them, and sent them away bleeding and writhing.
 The next day when he appeared on duty all his old friends of the regi- ment met him with averted faces. Ills fellow officers looked all round and

Charles drew his sword, and broke it owe his knee.
 "Then I belong to the regiment no longer" answered he. "1'll tear up my commission at once."
 And he did That night he went out to the cottage to ask Marguerite to marry him and go to the new world. where they might begin new life. All the visits he had paid were with out the knowledge of her father. And new he went to the door on tiptoe, and knocked gently-a knock she under stood. There was no answer, and he stood listening He heard a moaning sound that came from the direction of an old shed back in the garden. He stole there quietly, and saw that there was a light in the shed. The moaning continued, soon rising to Shriek. He looked in through crack, and saw , Marguerite strapped on leather couch. Her father, his eyes glowing insanely, was subj~cting her to the tor ture of the boot. He held aloft ham, mer, was crushing her limb.
 Confess that you love him p he was saying.
 Then the door flew Tn as though struck by thunderbOlt and Charles was in the room. He knocked the old lGan into a corner and then tore the engine of torture away from the girl. The father, half crazed with his men, tai sufferings, had heard that the girl was planning to elope with an officer. For the sake of her lover. the girl denied everything, and he was trying to force the truth from her.
 Then Charles outlined his plan, but the girl would not leave her father, who was worse than alone in the world. And the father would not con- sent to her marriage unless Charles agreed to adopt the old mans grue- some profession. Charles did not hesi- tate, and under such strange conditions le and the girl became engaged, and were married few days later.
 Alas that such devotion as that of Charles should have so poor a reward His young wife died in less than d year, leaving him son destined for his bloody trade. Charles thus estab- lished the Samson family of execution CTS who were the official headsmen of

His comrades knew that he was in love with the executioner's daughter, and he was pariah. For many days he endured this ostracism, and he began to realize what such love as his would cost him.
 Then the commanding officer sum- moned him to conference. The C mmanding officer began by telling him how everybody in the regiment loved him, and how everybody was af- flicted and humiliated by his present course.
 "Give up this girl, crush down this insane infatuation," said the marquis, land you'll have all your friends again. As 1t is, you are disgracing the regi- ment."

HOW EDITOR COINED WORD
The "Gerrymander" Was Born in Massachusetts and Is Credited to
 Maj. Benjamin Russell.

It was an early American newspa- per editor who made the word gerry mander." He was Maj. Benjamin Rus sell of the Massachusetts Centinel, which he and his partner, Warden, founded in 1784 He was fighting man, and the Centipel was no tame journal, but whacked blithely and cared not where the chips fell, says the Mer- genthaler Lines OType News.
 In 1911 the Massachusetts legisa- ture under Governor Gerry made neat new division of districts for con gross elections The most insidi- ous and ingenious arrangement of districts was the one for the county of Essex. With great glee Russell took a map of the county and colored the districts to show the heinousness of the device.
 Gilbert Stuart, the famous painter, saw the map, and suggested that the apportionment looked like reptile. He made a few marks on 1t with his

Brush Finish for Brass.

Steel wool will be found to be A very useful material for giving brass and similar metals a brush finish by rubbing them with it. Care should be taken that the rubbing is done in one direction, otherwise a scratched sur face will result. A lacquer should be applied to prevent furnishing. A thin solution of white shellac in alcohol ap- piled with brush is satisfactory as a lacquer for large work, and small pieces may be dipped in the solution. Anciently the plant equiseta or mares tails" was employed as polisher, and as many sportsman has found by ex. perience with rusty gun, provides a very fair, and not exceedingly ''scratchy," polisher.

THE SONS OF SORROW.

The most trifiing incident may affect your own destiny and the destiny of those who come after you. History is full of stories Illustrating this fact, and none of them is more remarkable than the story of Charles Samson de Iongval, who sacrificed everything for love. One day, in the year 1862, he was thrown from his horse; and as a direct result of this accident he and seven of his descendants, for period of 200 years, were summed of men, as though they were lepers, bearing upon them the word "unclean."
 Charles was the descendant of a once illustrious house. His forbears were knights and soldiers under the dukes of Normandy, and had distin- guished themselves for valor upon div CTS fields. They took part in William the Conqueror's little basket picnic in England and might have remained there in opulence, but returned to their own country.
 When the Hateful accident happened Charles was a lieutenant in the army, his regiment being stationed at Dieppe He was about thirty years of age. and handsome and prosperous. His life had been full of adventure, for he had spent several years in the wilderness of America. He was of buoyant spir- 1t and extremely witty, and therefore great favorite with his regiment, and a pet of his commanding officer, the Marquis de Labossiere He also seemed the pet of fortune, and it was agreed by his comrades that he had a future.
 Then one day he went for a horse back ride. and, just as he left the town, was thrown to the ground, be- cause of a broken saddle girth. He was unconscious for a time, and when he recovered his senses he was being carried into little dark cottage by a man of giant strength. He was placed upon rude couch, and re- G1ained there several days before he was able to leave. He was waited upon by the man who had carried him in, and his daughter.
 The man seemed bent beneath some crushing sorrow. His face was hag- gard and lined and his eyes full of trouble. He was silent most of the time, but now and then he talked to himself in wild way, and for hours together he would pace the floor of his little home, and moan and sob like man in agony. o The daughter was beautiful, but as sad as her father She never smiled and only SpOke when answering questions. She was so beau tiful and so gentle, and apparently so afflicted that the young soldier began by pitying her, and ended by loving her passionately. All this time he didn't know who his host was. and when he asked the girl she only re- piled, You will know soon enough"
 At last he was able to depart from the house, and the somber host escort

 Russell jumped up, laughing. "Sala- mander!' he shouted, looking at the hideous figure: "Gerrymander
