To Darken Hair
.1@. Apply Sage Tea
A few applications Of Sage Tea and
: Sulphur brings back It's vigor,
color, gloss and youthfulness.

Common garden sage brewed into
a heavy tea with sulphur added, will
turn gray, streaked and faded hair
beautifully dark and luxuriant Just a
few applications will prove revela-
ton if your hair is fading, streaked
or gray. Mixing the Sage Tea and
Sulphur recipe at home, though, is
troublesome. An easier way is to
get a 50-cent bottle Of Wyeth's Sage
and Sulphur Compound at any drug
store all ready for use. This is the
old time recipe improved by the ad-
dition OF other ingredients.
While wispy, gray. faded hair is not
sinful, we all desire to retain our
youthful appearance and attractive
ness. By darkening your hair with
Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Compound
no one can tell, because it does it so
naturally, so evenly. You just damp
en- a sponge or soft brush with it
and draw this through your hair, taxi
ing one small strand at a time; by
morning all gray hairs have disap-
pearcd, and, after another applica-
ton or two, your. hair becomes beau
tifully dark, glossy, soft and luxur-
liant.
This preparation is a delightful
toilet requisite and is not intended for
the cure, mitigation or prevention of
disease.-Adyertisem

sURFEIT OF MERE NEWS
By A. r. GROH.

Here's an item Ill give you to help
fill up the paper
Every reporter hears something like
that frequently. 1t is founded on the
mistaken belief that the hard job on
a newspaper is to ELL up" the col
umns. Whereas, the real job is to
boil down" the news.
The. average man vaguely imagines
that the reporters and editors meet in
the morning with anxious looks, won
dering where they will be able to get
enough news to fill up the paper; that
the reporters then rush out on the
streets, seeking news of accidents,
murders, meetings, personal items and
SO on; that gradually, by great effort,
the white pages are filled and finally
all breathe signs of relief when they
know that they won't have to issue
the paper with any blank columns.
= Can't Print All { News.
The opposite of this is true. Every
great newspaper receives much more
news than it can possibly print. When
Daniel Webster Jones brings in a
4,000-word Fourth of July Grafton
which he delivered at Squirrel Run, it
needs to be cut down to, say, three
lines. No doubt it was a good ora
ton, but you wouldn't Gre to read it,
and therefore, it is not printed.
