The old time mixture Of Sage Tea
and Sulphur for darkening gray,
streaked and faded hair is grandmoth-
er's treatment, and folks are again us
ing it to keep their hair good. even
color, which is quite sensible as we
are living in an age when a youthful
appearance is of the greatest advan
tage.
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 prod
uct called 'Wyteh's Sage and Sulphur
Compound" for about so cents a bottle.
It is very popular because nobody can
discover it has been applied. Simply
moisten your comb or a soft brush with
1t and draw this thru your hair, taking
one small strand at 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 few applica-
tons, it also produces that soft lustre
end appearance of abundance which is
s0 attractive: besides. prevents dand-
ruf. itching scalp and falling hair.

MEMORIAL DAY

Gov. Philip has issued the follow
ing proclamation designating Tuesday,
May Both, as Memorial day, viz:
THE soldiers for the war for the
union have a permanent place in the
hearts of the American people. The
cause for which they fought and the
spirit in which they left their peace
full callings to take up the work of
war has made them living force in
the conscience of the republic. AS
citizen soldiers who fought for peace
and were averse to war, they set an
example for all time, and as such
their spirits must ever march in the
van of our nations destiny.
For these reasons the Grand Army
is never dead. With each recurring
year they stand before US as wildly
as ever The march of time has Leen
unable to leave them behind.
The day which is dedicated to their
memory is not the anniversary of a
great battle. We do not celebrate An
tietam or Gettysburg or AppomattoX.
Their day is not one of noisy demon
stration as when we triumph over an
alien foe. 1t is simply day in spring
when nature brings forth flowers to
lay upon their graves. 1t is fit spirit
in which to remember those valiant
hosts that felt no pride of conquest
and left behind them no heritage of
hate
The people of Wisconsin, in con-
formity with federal law, have pro-
vided for a day to be observed in
their honor. Therefore, l, Emanuel
L. Philip, governor of the state of
{ Wisconsin, here designate May 80,
1916, as Memorial day, and l earnest
ly remind the people of their duty to
keep it memorable. In schools and
churches and in public meeting places
where all may join, let us honor their
| memory and again cOnsecrate our
| lives and thoughts to those national
ideals which they cherished more
! dearly than their lives"

DOES NOT EXCITE THEM

The calling out of the national
guards of the states of Texas, Mexico
and Arizona to enter service on the
Mexican border does not excite the
national guard of Wisconsin, for all
stand ready to so to the front on their
country's call. As the number from
those states does not exceed 10000, it
is thought perhaps that New York
and Pennsylvania guards will be
called out. Gen. o. c. Holway says
that the fact that the above states
have called out the guards, does not,
at present. call for additional activity
in Wisconsin regiments.
The Wausau company is taking
things philosophically and if it is
called all will be in readiness.
