COMB SAGE TEAM
HAIR To DARKEN t
It's Grandmother's Recipe to Keel
Her Locks Dark, Glossy,
Beautiful.

The old time mixture of Sage Tea
and Sulphur for darkening gray,
streaked and faded hair is grand
mothers recipe, and folks are again
using 1t to keen their hair a good,
even color, which is quite sensible, as
we are living in an age when youth
full appearance is of the greatest adj
vantage.
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 product, improved by the addi-
ton Of other ingredients, called
'Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Com
pound" for about so cents a bottle.
1t is very popular because nobody can
discover it has been applied. Simply
moisten your comb or soft brush
with 1t and draw this through your
hair, taking one small strand at a
time; by morning the gray hair dis
appears, but what delights the ladies
with Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Com
pound, is that, besides beautifully
darkening the hair after a few
applications, it also produces that
soft 1ustre and appearance of
abundance which is so attrac-
tive This ready-to-use prepare
ton Is a delightful toilet requisite
for those who desire more youthful
appearance. 1t Is not intended for
! the cure, mitigation or prevention OF
disease.

|MONTROSE PEOPLE
/ Want ELECTRICITY
Petition Is Presented to Supervisors,
Asking That County Give
Right Of Way for
Cables.
a PROGRESSIVE SPIRIT
Few Towns the Size Of keokuk's
Neishbor Are Wide Awake
Enough to Get This
Service.

Citizens Of Montrose have petition
ed the board Of supervisors for a
right Of way for power cables from
Keokuk to sMOntrose. The petition
asks that the county give the right OF
way. The supervisors should grant
the petition since the Montrose peo-
pie are enterprising enough to ask
to have electric lights installed in
their town and in their homes.
The Montrose people are to be
congratulated on their progressive
ness. There are few towns the size
of Montrose as well lighted as it will
be when the new electric lights are
installed. It shows a very progress
sive spirit on the part Of the citizens.
and a very commendable showing for
the town.
Electric lights and power for Mont
rose from the Keokuk dam will give
it excellent service, and will make 1t
possible for the residents there to
have well lighted up to date town
and stores. Electric power can be
used to advantage. we'll lighted
town is always a big asset as well as
an advertisement and Montrose will
find the new illumination to be both.
"A canvass Of the town was made
lby the Keokuk Electric company to
find out just how many people would
like to take the service. The result
was even more encouraging than the
local company had hoped for.
If the supervisors grant the re-
quest, and 1t is supposed that they
will, the lights will be put in just as
soon as the cables can be carried to
the neighbOring town.

DRUGS EXCITE YOUR
KIDNEYS, USE SALTS
II your Back hurts or Bladder

When your kidneys hurt and your
back feels sore, don't get scared and
proceed to load your stomach with a
lot of drugs that excite the kidneys
and irritate the entire urinary tract.
Keep your kidneys clean like you
keep your bowels clean, by flushing
them with a mild, harmless salts
which removes the body's urinous
waste and stimulates them to their
normal activity. The function of the
kidneys is to filter the blood. In "a
hours they strain from it 500 grains
of acid and waste, so we can readily
understand the vital Importance OF
keeping the kidneys active.
Drink lots of WATERFOWL can't
drink too much; also get from any
pharmacist about four ounces of Jad
Salts; take a tablespoonful in a glass
of water before breakfast each morn
ing for few days and your kidneys
will act fine. This famous salts Is
made from the acid of grapes and
lemon juice, combined with lithia, and
has been used for generations to
clean and stimulate clogged kidneys;
also to neutralize the acids in urine
so 1t no longer is source of irri-
tation, thus ending bladder weakness.
Jad Salts is inexpensive; cannot in
lure; makes a delightful effervescent
Whitewater drink which everyone
should take now and then to keep
their kidneys clean and active. Try
this, also keep up the water drink
ing, and no doubt you will wonder
what became of your kidney trouble
and backache.

HOW TO TELL WHETHER OR
NOT A HEN WILL LAY

While the trap nest is the most de-
pendable method by which to select
birds of high egg production, the addi-
tional labor and expense involved
prohibits its use under most farm con-
ditions. Without the trap nest one
must resort to external indications.
When selecting pullets, choose only
those from early matches with strong
constitutional development. early pro-
ducing pullets. heavy eaters, early
risers, later retirers and active. Hens
of highest egg production have a
faminine appearance. fine head, alert
eyes. comb, face and wattles fine OF
texture and medium in size. They
should stand squarely on their feet,
legs wide apart. with the front end of
the body slightly higher than the pos.
terror end. long back and tail carried
rather high. The body should present
a wedge shaped appearance, yielding
ample room for the reproductive and
digestive organs. Late molters make
heavier winter producers.-C. s. An.
