A Sluggish. Clogged-Up Circu-
latiOn Causes Skin
EruptiOns.

Eczema Is called a skin disease be-
cause the tiny little germs which
cause the disease set up their colony
on some portion of the skins surface,
and here spread their irritation that
soon begins to burn ike flames OF
fire.
There are other forms Of so-called
diseases of skin, such as letter, boils,
pimples, acne, erysipelas, scaly erup-
tions, blotches and rough irritations,
that are a source Of much pain and
annoyance.
And, while these disorders are gen.
orally referred to as skin diseases,
they are really traceable to a disor-
dered condition of'the blood, and they
are never experienced by anyone
whose blood is free from impurities.
If you are a victim of any form of
these painful and irritating disorders
of the skin, causing, as they do, such
constant annoyance, you canont ex-
pect any real benefit from the local
treatment so generally used, such as
lotions, ointments, salves, etc.
You are simply postponing a cure

DARKEN GRAY HAIR.
LOOK YOUNG, PRETTY
Grandma's recipe Of Sage Tea and
Sulphur darkens so naturally
that nobody can tell.

Hair that loses its color and lustre,
or when it fades, turns gray, dull and
lifeless, is caused by a lack of sulphur
in the hair. Our grandmother made
up mixture of Sage Tea and Sulphur
to keep her locks dark and beautiful,
and thousands of women and men who
value that even color. that beautiful
dark shade Of hair which is SO at
tractive, use only this old-time recipe
Nowadays we get this famous mix
ture improved by the addition of other
ingredients by asking ats any drug
store for a bottle of "Wyeth's Sage
and Sulphur Compound" which dark
ems the hair SO naturally, so evenly.
that nobody can possibly tell it has
been applied. You just dampen a
sponge or soft brush with it and draw
this through your hair, taking one
small strand at time. BY morning
the gray hair disappears; but what
delights the ladies with Wyeths Sage
and Sulphur Compound is that, besides
beautifully darkening the hair after a
few applications, it also brings back
the gloss and lustre and gives it an
appearance of abundance.
Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Com.
pound is a delightful toilet requisite
to impart color and a youthful appear
ance to the hair. 1t is not intended

Attorney John w. Preston, who has
conducted the prosecution was to con-
clude his summing up of the evidence
before the noon recess, after which
Judge w. G. Van Fleet planned to in
struct the jury.
Mr.. Preston, in addressing the jury,
characterized the alleged German
Hindu revolutionary plot as lone OF
the most remarkable and amazing por-
trayals of the inward workings of any
government in the history of juris-
prudence" He emphasized that it
was the desire of the alleged conspir-
ators, who, he said, were financially
and morally assisted by officials of
the German embassy at Washington,
led by American Ambassador Count
Bernstorff, to create a condition of
affairs in India that would necessi-
tate the withdrawal from the Euro
pean battle fronts of large numbers of
British troops to suppress the expected
revolution.
The shipping men indicted in con-
nection with the supposed conspiracy
are alleged by the government to have
been concerned in the equipping and
operation Of the steamers Maverick
and Annie Lareen, which the govern
ment charges were to land arms and
ammunition in India.
