LADIES! SECRET TO
 DARkEN GRAY HAIR
Bring back color, gloss and youthful ness with Grandma's recipe of
 Sage and Sulphur.

Common garden sage brewed into q heavy tea, with sulphur and alcohol added, will turn gray, streaked and faded hair beautifully dark and 1uxur- iant. Mixing the Sage Tea and Sul- phur recipe at home. though, is trou- blesome. An easier way is to get the ready-to-use preparation improved by the addition of other ingredients, cost ing about 50 cents a large bottle, at drug stores, known as -Wyefh's Sage and Sulphur Compound" thus avoid ing a lot of muss. E While gray, faded hair is not sinful. we all desire to retain our youthful appearance and attrzctiveueSs- By darkening your hair with Wyekh's s Sage and Sulphur Compound, no one can tell, because 1t does 1t so naturally, so evenly. You just dampen sponge or soft brush with it and draw this through your hair, taking one small strand at . time: by morning all gray hairs have disappeared. After another application or two your hair becomes beautifully dark, glossy. soft and lux uriant and you appear years younger. Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Compound is delightful toilet requisite. It is not intended for the cure, mitigation or prevention of disease

DisaIIoWs Claim in Deutschland Case
Coussioner Finds Mrs Iva R. Jackson Was Not Depend ent on Husband Lost in Sound Catastrophe-Had Re. ceived No Contribution Towards Her Support for Fifteen Months Before Time of His Death.

was called that this point might be deter1nined.
 According to the evidence 1t appears that tho husband and wife in this case had been living apart for the last two years, during which time the claimant had not known his where abouts and had received but $2o from him since July 1915, and even this sum was not paid to the claimant but to her son.
 The claimant testified that she mar ried the decedent 29 years ago. She said they kept house up to three years ago at which time her husband had said that he was going away to look for a better position. The claimant further stated her husband went away on April II, 1910, and from that time he gave her $ a week up to June 21, 1e10 on which date he gave her $S and she received no further support from him until he came to her sons home on Sept. 30, 1914, at which time the husband had given the son $125 for the board of the mother and sister. From September, 1914, up toe July or August of 1915 the claimant had re- cefved no money from her husband, but letter had been sent to the son by the deceased in July or August or 1915, enclosing $20 for her support. Since that time no contributions had been made by the deceased toward the support of his wife whatever. In oth- CT words the last contribution receiy- ed by the claimant was about fifteen months before the death of the de- cedent and the claimant had not seen the decedent for two years before his death.
 In consideration of the facts brought out at the hearing it is found that the claimant is not a dependant of the deceased, within the meaning of the act and her claim for compensa- ton is dismissed.

NO BOAT RACE IF / WAR IS DECLARED
Hostiiities Will Interfere With An
 nual Event on Thames.

There will be no Yale-Harvard boat race this year if the United States is drawn into war in the opinion of F. Valentine Chappell, chairman of the regatta committee. Unless state of war actually exists the race will be rowed as usual. Less than two weeks ago the Yale athletic association ask ed Mir. Chappell if he would act as chairman of the regatta. committee and he understood that Mir. Meiixleham had been asked to assist in the ca pacity of referee. Both have acted in these positions for a number of years.
 A New Haven daily printed a story recently asserting that there would probably be a race but that it would be rowed somewhere other than on the Thames river The article further stated that before a great while New London would be a closed port. Mir. Chappell said that he was of the opinion that unless the race was row ed at New London there would not be any, race. No one could be found that had any information concerning the closing of New London port.
 MT. Chappell said that should staate of war exist that it would be dangerous to block the river with yachts because of the submarine base.

THE FERDINANDO BROS.'
 ORCHESTRA IN COLONIAL HALL

Have you selected your partner for the first of the season Ferdinando dances to be held in Colonial hall to- night? Girls a plenty will be there but it's always the wise chap who takes his girl right along with him and then he knows just where he stands when It comes to dancing with a girl who suits his idea of dancing. But when It comes to being suited it's said many a time that no matter how poorly you dance to the ordinary sort of music you can't possibly go wrong when dancing to the exceptional music of the Ferdinando Orchestra.
 This season this organization is bet ter than ever-traveling with eight men and every man a crackerjack at his own particular instrument and a drummer that for real jazz stuff is a. hummer. That drummer chap with the Ferdinando orch estra carries with him 32 traps besides his snare drum, his base drum and his cymbals and bells He is a demon for work and together with the banjo and saxo- phone quartet, not mentioning an en- ttrely new and exclusive instruments used for the first time in this section for dance work, there are enough fea- lures to be heard and danced to to- night for three ordinary dance or chestras. Concert starts at 8 and dancing commences at and con tinues to midnight.
