DARKEN GRAY HAIR,
LOOK YOUNG, PRETTY
Sage Tea: and Sulphur Darkens
So Naturally that No
body can tell.

Hair that loses it's color and lustre, or
when it fades, turns gray, dull and life
less, 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 mixture
improved by the addition of other ingredi-
ents by asking at any drug store for So
cent bottle Of "Wyeth's Sage and Sui
phur Compound" which darkens the
hair SO naturally, SO evenly, that nobody
can possibly tell it has been applied. You
just dampen sponge or 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 beau
tifully darkening the hair after a few
applications, it also brings back the gloss
and lustre and gives it an appearance
of abundance.
Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Compound
is delightful toilet requisite to impart
color and youthful appearance to the
hair. Sit is not intended for the cure,
mitigation or prevention Of disease. y

Germany is adopting a mighty
poor method Of winning American
friendship Or sympathy when she
brings her submarine warfare to this
side of the Atlantic. Let Europe
keep her quarrels at home. After
the war is over the United States
should present claims for the dam
age illegally done to American ship
ping and goods by the combatants.
It will be remembered that Great
Britain was glad to pay America
$15,O0O,00O shortly after the Civil
war to compensate for the damage
done by Confederate vessels fitted
out in British Ports.-Stevens Point
Journal.
Germany has the same right to
sink enemy shipping off the coast OF
the United States as she has any
where else on the high seas. And
England's action in allowing Con
federate privateers to be fitted out
was an entirely different thing than
allowing a belligerent warship to
touch at a neutral port for a stay
of a few hours. Germany must re
spect American lives, but it must be
expected that she will strike at her
foes whenever and wherever she can
Germany has made her submarine
warfare conform to the principles OF
international law as recognized by
the Washington government; if we
could say as much for England's in.
reference with American commerce
We could view the situation with
more satisfaction.

There is more Catarrh in this section OF
the country than all other diseases put
together, and until the last few years
was supposed to be incurable. For
great many years doctors pronounced it a
local disease and prescribed local reme-
dies and by constantly failing to cure
with local treatment, pronounced it incur
able. Science has proven Catarrh to be
constitutional disease, and therefore re-
quires constitutional treatment. Halls
Catarrh Cure, manufactured by F. j..
Cheney & Co., Toledo, Ohio, is the only

scented to the capitalist wonderful
latent possibilities. The preliminary
work was pushed to completion and
from fifty to a hundred men have
since been steadily employed in pre-
senting a barrier to the Flambeau
river in order that it's energy might
be converted into profitable indus

The gates will be closed today and
the machinery tested and adjusted,
after which the company will COM
