- Naturally Nobody Can

Grand mother kept her hair beauti-
fully darkened, glossy and attractive
with a brew of Sage Tea and Sulphur.
Whenever her hair took on that dull.
faded or streaked appearance, this
simple mixture was applied with won
derful effect. BY asking at any drug
store for "Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur
compound" you will get a large bot
tie of this old-time recipe, improved
by the addition of other ingredients,
all ready to use, for about so cents.
This simple mixture can be depended
upon to restore natural color and
beauty to the hair.
A well known downtown druggist
says everybody uses Wyeth's Sage
and Sulphur Compound now because
it darkens so naturally and evenly
that nobody can tell it has been ap.
plies-it's so easy to use, too. You
simply dampen comb or soft brush
and draw it through your hair, taking
one strand at a time. BY morning
the gray hair disappears; after an
other application or two, it is restor-
ed to its natural color and looks CLOS
sy, soft and beautiful. This prepare

MyLittle Isle of Green

Never more to roam
From that dear little borcen,
Where the colleens play
With the boys all day
In my little isle Of green!
I've seen ev'ry place
On the earth's broad space
Wherein grandeur dwclls serene,
But for beauty rare
No land can compare
With my little isle of green!
I've seen palaces grand
In many land
Fit for king and queen,
But no place on earth
Is like the old hearth
My home in the isle of green!
I've seen many girls
With bright golden curls
And eyes of an azure sheen,
But that isle so small
Holds the queen Of all
My lass in the isle of green.
