SAGE TEA
DANDY TO
DARKEN HAIR
Look years younger! Use the old
time Sage Tea and Sulphur
and nobody will know.

You can turn gray. faded hair beau
tifully dark and lustrous almost over
night if you'll get a bottle of "Wyeths
Sage and Sulphur Compound at any
drug store. Millions of bottles of this
old famous Sage Tea Recipe. improved
by the addition of other ingredients,
are sold annually, says a well-known
druggist here. because it darkens the
hair so naturally and evenly that no
one can tell it has been applied.
Those whose hair is turning gray or
Becoming faded have a surprise await
ing them, because after one or two
applications the gray hair vanishes
and your locks become luxuriantly
dark and beautiful.
This is the age of youth. Gray
haired unattractive folks aren't
wanted around. so get busy with
Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Compound
tonight and you'll be delighted with
your dark. handsome hair and your
youthful appearance within a few
days.

AT AGE. OF "
Chas. Belcher Has Gained Four.
teen Pounds.
Says Tanlac Is Finest Thing He
Has Ever Found.

SCI am now seventy-two years OLD,
said Charles H. Belcher, who lives at
the woodland hotel, ST. Joseph, Mo-.
recently. land 1 Just want to say In
an earnestness that Tanlac is the fin
est medicine I have ever seen. why,
since / began taking it, about three
weeks ago 1 have actually gained
fourteen pounds, which strikes me as
being mighty good, especially, for one
of my age.
''During the past Spring." continued
Mr.. Belcher, in explaining his case,
my stomach got in such bad condi-
ton that nothing agreed with me or
seemed to do me one bit of good and.
besides. my appetite was SO poor that
hardly ever cared for food OF any
kind. / finally just broke down COM
pletely and was laid up in bed for al
most three months. 1 dropped on In
weight from one hundred and forty
five pounds to one hundred and four
teen. After 1 did get out of bed was
fearfully weak and couldn't get any
thing to help me regain my strength.
T would suffer terribly from indiges-
ton after eating and would bloat up
with gas until was miserable.
'Einally a friend of mine urged me
10 try bottle of Tanlac and he
couldn't have done me a,greater kind
ness. 1 have hardly finished my sec
ond bottle yet but it has already put
me back on my feet and built me up

appetite that I can hardly get enough
to eat and you may know my food
agrees with me or 1 wouldn't be gain
ing SO rapidly in weight. I haven't
felt so strong and well in long time
as do now and as a general all round
medicine I certainly do think Tanlac
is second to none. and 1 can recon-
mend ii to everybody"
When-people grow to the ripe old
age of Mr.. Belcher. their digestive or
gans lack vitality and begin to act
more slowly and less effectually than
in youth. The circulation becomes
poor and the blood thins; the appe-
tite fails and the digestion grows weak
~Tanlac, the powerful reconstructive
tonic, is the ideal strength and body
builder for old folks, because it Gre
ates good, healthy appetite, strength
ems digestion and, in natural way,
strengthens and invigorates rundown,
nervous and elderly people.

Get A new PARK
Plan Being Worked Out To
Convert School Property.
Use Ground Between Buchanan
and QuintOn Boulevard.

Topeka is to have a new park. A
petition is being circulated by Sidney
Smith, asking that the board of educa-
ton donate to the city the school prop
and Quinton boulevard bounded on
the north by Second street for the pur-
pose of creating park.
The petition was drawn up only a
day or SO ago and altho it has not been
pushed to a. great extent it has met
with considerable success and it's pro-
gress has been entirely devoid of op-
position SO great IS the enthusiasm for
the creation of park for this dis
trict.
No Use to School Board.
The property has not been used for
educational purposes in something like
ten years and offers to buy it have
been declined. East and south of this
location the children of the neighbor-
hood attend the Sumner school while
those living to the west attend the Pot
win school. AS a school property the
ground has been entirely without use.
In line with Topeka's tendency to
bring greater distinction to the town
in the way of creating and maintain
ing beautiful parks is the petition re-

If the proposition is favorably acted
upon by the board of education it is

school grounds. which covers a tract
of land approximately $50 feet by 200
feet, will be turned over to the city for
consideration of one dollar for the
cree ton of another of the parks which
go to make the streets of Topeka so at
tractive. AS the completion of this
deal will not require the issuance of
bonds and will put the city to no ex-
pense as it would II the land were to
be purchased it is without doubt a
movement. that should be given every
possible assistance.
The list of names on the petition
number many of the most prominent
men of the district and before the list
is complete it is anticipated that prac-
tically every man in the neighborhood
will have signed the paper.
