LADIES! DARKEN
 YOUR GRAY HAIR
Look years younger! Use Grandmoth- crs' recipe of Sage Tea and SuI.
 phur and nobody will know.

The use of Sage and Sulphur for re- storing faded, gray hair to it's natural color dates back to sgrandmother's time. She used it to keep her hair beautifully dark, glossy and attractive. Whenever her hair. took on that dull. faded or streaked appearance, this simple mixture was applied with won- derful effect.
 But brewing at home is mussy and out-of-date. Nowadays. by asking at any drug store for 50 cent bottle of "Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Com pound," you will get this famous old preparation, improved by the addition of other ingredients, which can be de- rended upon to restore natural color and beauty to the hair.
 A well-known downtown druggist says it darkens the hair so naturally and evenly that nobody can tell it has been applied. You simply dampen a sponge or soft brush with 1t and draw this through your hair. taking one strand at time. By morning the yray Hair disappears, and after another ap- rlication or two, 1t becomes beautiful ly dark and glossy.
 Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Com pound is a delightful toilet requisite for those who desire a more youthful appearance. It is not intended for the cure, mitigation or prevention of dis case.

Gridley was preceding the Berlin trolley down the street and it is thought that Miss Bruce was waiting for the trolley and stepped into the road with the inten- tion of going aboard.
