 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 few days.

f KIDNEYS ACT
 BAD TAKE SALTS
Says Backache is sign you have been eating too much meat, which
 forms uric acid

When you wake up with backache and dull misery in the kidney region it gen orally means you have been eating too much meat, says well-known authority. Meat forms uric acid which overworks the kidneys in their effort to filter it from the blood and they become sort of paralyzed and loggy. When your kidneys get sluggish and clog you must relieve them, like you relieve your bowels; re- moving all the body's urinous waste, else you have backache, sick headache, dizzy spells; your stomach sours, tongue is coated, and when the weather is bad you have rheumatic twinges. The urine is cloudy, full of sediment, channels often get sore, water scalds and you are obliged to seek relief two or three times during the night.
 Either consult good, reliable physi clan at once or get from your pharmacist about four ounces of lad Salts; taks a tablespoonful in glass of watel before breakfast for few days and you kidneys will then act fine. This famou salts is made from the acid of grape and lemon juice, combined with lithi. and has been used for generations clean and stimulate sluggish kidney also to neutralize acids in the urine SO no longer irritates, thus ending bladd weakness.
 lad Salts is a life saver for regui. neat eaters. 1t is inexpensive, cam iniure and makes a deliahtful, etf scsccns lithis ". ..er Gz.z-.

CATARRHAL DEAFNESS CAN
 NOT BE CURED.

by local applications, as they cannot reach the diseased portion of the ear. There is only one way to cure ca tarrhal deafness, and that is by a constitutional remedy. Catarrhal deafness is caused by an inflamed condition of the mucous lining of the Eustachian Tube. When this tube is inflamed you have rumbling sound or imperfect hearing, and when it is entirely closed, Deafness is the re- suit. Unless the inflammation car be reduced and this tube restored to it's normal condition, hearing will be destroyed forever. Many cases of deafness are caused by catarrh, which is an inflamed condition of the mu- cous surfaces. Halls Catarrh Medi- cine acts through the blood on the. mucous surfaces of the system.
 We will give One Hundred Dollalt for any case of Catarrhal Deafness that cannot be cured by Halls Ca tarrh Medicine. Circulars free. All Druggists, 75c.

Danes Once scorned Coal Fires.

Coal and it's products were not al
ways so popular as they are today,
Alexander Findlay, a Welsh chemist,
reminds us in his book, ''The Treas
ures of Coal Tar"
"The introduction Of coal, especially
as domestic fuel, was for a long
time regarded with disfavor," he
writes. "Even in the seventeenth CEN
fury it met with an active boycott on
the part of the nice danes of London,
who would not come into any house or
rooms where sea-coales were burned,
nor willingly eat of meat that was Ell
Their sod or roasted with sea-coal fire.
doubtless by reason of the pollution
of the atmosphere by smoke and Of the
stencil produced by the burning COAL"
Coal was more popular in England
In 1859, when mauve dye appeared as
one of the coal tar products and be-
came so much the rage that Punch re-
ferred to the fashion epidemic as the
Mauve Measles.
