SAGE TEA
TURNS GRAY
HAIR DARK
It's Grandmother's recipe to bring
color. Iustrc and yOuthfuIness to hair
when faded, strcaled or gray.

That beautiful, even shade of dark,
glossy hair can only be had by brewing
a mixture of Sage Tea and Sulphur
Your hair is your charm. 1t makes or
mars the face. When it fades, turns
gray or streaked, just an application
or two of Sage and Sulphur enhances
its appearance a hundred fold.
Don't bother to prepare the mix
ture: you can get this famous old re-
cipe improved by the addition of 9TH
er ingredients for so cents a large bot
tie all ready for use. 1t is called
W-yeths Sage and sulphur Compound
This can always be depended upon to
bring back the natural color and lustre
OF your hair.
Everybody uses "Wyeth's' Sage and
sulphur Compound now because it
darkens so naturally and evenly that
nobody can tell it has been applied
You simply dampen a sponge or soft
brush with it and draw this through
the hair, taking one small strand at a
time: by morning the gray hair has
disa appeared, and after another ap-
plication it becomes beautifully dark
and appears glossy and lustrous. This
ready-to-use preparation is a delight
ful toilet requisite for those who desire
dark hair and Il youthful appearance.

ton or prevention of disease.-Adver-

Washington, April 1.-THE report
has spread through underground Of
fetal channels here that the United
States is passively favorable to the

No agency of this government, il
was said, has taken official cognizance
of the statement by w. E. D. Stokes
of New York. published "Wednesday

any action would have to be

someone should attempt to fit out 4

if an effort should be made to ship
arms and ammunition into Mexico for
revolutionary purposes.
I'VE cannot interfere with the
financing of such movements" it was

1t was stated General Diaz prob

such shipment was a subterfuge ana
that the arms and ammunition were

There is a feeling at the department
of Justice said to have been inspired
by an intimation from the state de
partment, that this government IS
"passively sympathetic" toward the
MAJ revolution and this sentiment
was explained on the ground that this
government fears General Carranza

CENSOR CAFE MEALS
Germany ProcIaims Size of Eats Must
Be Reduced.

London, April 14.-The imperial
German governments order to all
German hotel and restaurant keepers,
that they must reduce the size of the
meals they serve, both as to variety
and quantity, will be effective
throughout Germany beginning with
breakfast tomorrow morning.
The bills of fare will be reduced 20
the smallest proportions on record and
guests will not be permitted to eat
more than one item from any single
course-and not very much of that.
The butter supply, for instance, now
per person per week. Mighty little
are held to corresponding proportions.
Germany rs racing toward famine
which has been foreseen since last
summer by those who knew the truth
about the summer harvest, according
to Francis Gribble, the British novelist
who has just returned to London after
a year in the German internment
camp at Ruhleben, near Berlin.
There is no avoiding the conclu-
sion," said Gribble today, shat the
state of the German people soon will
be much what the state of the Belgian
people now would be but for Ameri-
can pnilanthrOpists.
THE date at which the catastrophe
will occur depends upon a good many
uncertain factors; but it cannot be
long delayed.
THE 1915 summer harvest, what
there was of it, was both sown and
reaped while l was behind the barbed
wires at Ruhleben. There was prac-
ucally no rain from the end of March
until the beginning of July

NOTE: 1t is now asserted with con-
filence that these painful effects due to
uric acid in the system are entirely eradi-
Gated. A new remedy, called "Anurlc,"
has been discovered by DR.. Pierce, and is
the cause of q drainage outward of the
within the body. 1t will ward off back
ache. headache. and the darting pains and
aches of articular or muscular rheuma-
tism-of those diseases which are caused
by too much uric acid, such as govt,
asthma, sciatica, renal calculus. An
uric prolongs life because old people usu-
ally suffer from hardening and thickening
of the walls of the arteries, due to the
excess of uric acid in the blood and
tissues.
DIR. Pierce, who is director and chief
physician at the Invalids' Hotel and
Surgical Institute, Buffalo, n. Y, has
been testing this wonderful medicine Tor
the relief Of over worked and weakened
kidneys. The relief obtained by sufferers
has been so satisfactory that he deter
mined to place VAnuric" with the prin-
cipal druggists in town where people
could get this ready to-use medicine.
vAnuric is not harmful or poisonous,
but aids nature in throwing on tnose
poisons within the body which cause SO
much suffering, pain ard misery Scien-
fists assert this remedy is 81 times more
potent than lithia. Send 10 cents for
large trial package.
oAnuric" is building up reputation as
good as DR.. Pierce's other well-knOwn
medicines which have been proved reli-
able during nearly fifty years, such as
