sage TEA KEEPS
YOUR HAIR DARK
It's Crandmother's recipe to bring back
color, youthfulness and lustrc-
Everybody is using it again.

Gray hair, however handsome, de-
notes advancing age. We all know
the advantages of a youthful appear
ance. Your hair is your charm. 1t
makes or mars the face. When it
fades, turns gray and looks streaked,
just a few applications of Sage Tea
and Sulphur enhances it's appearance
hundred-fold. .
Don't stay gray! Look young !
Either prepare the recipe at home or
get from any drug store a bottle of
"Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Com
pound" which is merely the old-time
recipe improved by the addition of
other ingredients. Thousands of folks
recommend this ready-to-use prepara-
ton, because. it darkens the hair
beautifully, besides, no one can pos
sibly tell, as it darkens SO naturally
and evenly. You moisten sponge or
soft brush with it, drawing this
through the hair, taking one small
strand at time. By morning the
gray hair disappears; after another
application or two, it's natural color is
restored and it becomes thick, glossy
and lustrous, and you appear years
younger. -..-. ~
Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Com
pound is delightful toilet requisite.
It is not intended for the cure, miti-
cation or prevention Of disease.

Cadomene Tablets are helpful to
weak nerves. Weak, faulty nerves
often come from strong drink. Some
times the system is impoverished by
excesses of one kind or~another, such
as poor digestion and faulty nutri-
ton. Overwork, anxiety, and even
grief causes abnormal nervous con-
ditions. The strength of body de-
clines. The strength of will power
wanes. Nervousness and sleeplessness
causes further weakness and loss of
vitality. Years of faithful practice
taught a great physician that the
formula now used to make Cadomene
Tablets would surely build up the
health Of his patients. Now, anyone
can take this great medicine if need

BEFORE BREAKFAST
Says you really feel clean, sweet

are seldom i'll.

If you are accustomed to wake up
with coated tongue, foul breath or
a dull, dizzy headache; or, if your
meals sour and turn into gas and
acids, you have real surprise await
ing you.
Tomorrow morning, Immediately
upon arising, drink a glass of hot
water with a teaspoonful of limestone
phosphate in it. This is intended to
first neutralize and then wash out of
your stomach, liver, kidneys and
thirty feet of intestines all the indi-
gestible waste, poisons, sour bile and
toxins, thus cleansing, sweetening and
purifying the entire alimentary canal.
Those subject to sick headaches,
backache, bilious attacks, constipation
or any form of stomach trouble, are
urged to get quarter pound of lime
stone phosphate from the drug store
and begin enjoying this morning in
side-bath. 1t is said that men and
women who try this become enthu-
siastic and keep it up daily.
Just as hot water and soap cleanse.

water and teaspoonful of limestone
phosphate act on the stomach, liver,
kidneys and bowels. Limestone phos-
