DARKEN GRAY HAIR,
LOOK YOUNG, PRETTY
Sage Tea and Sulphur Darkens
So Naturally that No
body can tell.

Hair that loses it's color and lustre,
or when it fades, turns gray, dull and
lifeless, is caused by 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 at any drug
store for 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
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 Wyeth's Sage
and Sulphur Compound is that, be-
sides beautifully darkening the hair
after few applications, it also brings
back the gloss and lustre and gives, it
an appearance of abundance.
OWyeth's Sage and Sulphur Com
pound is delightful toilet requisite
to impart color and a youthful APP
pearance to the hair. 1t is not in
tended for the cure, mitigation or pre-
vention Of disease.

NEW MENASHA PARK
TO BE KEPT INTACT

Nothing new has developed in the
matter of the citys purchasing Men
asha Park. The intervening holt
days and the absence of some of the
members from the city have prevent
ed a meeting of the council.
The plan Of the council to keep the
new tract purchased intact and to pre-
serve in it's entirety the beautiful nat
ural forest is one which appears TO
have met with general approval.
The park property on the river, con-
sisting of 10 acres, bought two years
ago will probably be cut into lots as
stated and except for a boulevard
along the river be turned into high.

TO FATHERS
When You Join the Red Cross
ard Give Your Mite, You Help
Our Soldiers in Europe and
Feed Starving Babies.

Fathers: Suppose that three years
ago q powerful and savage enemy had
invaded our nation suddenly and you
had been called into the army to de-
rend the country Suppose that our
county had been captured by the in
gader; your home burned, your wife
md half-grOwn daughter carried away
into slavery worse than death and your
son mutilated and put to work behind
tie enemy lines.
You think such things couldn't hap
pen t. you and your family? Well.
just those horrors were visited upon
thousands OF fathers in France and
Belgium by the kaiser's savages. 1t
has been revealed to us during the last
few months by the secret service that
the Huns were plotting an invasion
of the United States through Mexico.
But fer a fair destiny these horrors
would have been ours, because the kai-
ser aims to dominate the world and
spread over the earth his brand of love
and fellowship called "kultur."
The American Red Cross has been
called upon to relieve suffering cover
there and to restore as far as possible
devastated sections OF allied territory
1t is now on the job. The Red Cross
is conducting thousands of hospitals i'll
France for American and allied sol
diers. and running ambulance lines
and comfort stations innumerable.
Yet the organization cannot Go
enough because it hasn't half enough
members back home here to support
the vast work there. So now it is con
Quoting q campaign to get fifteen mil
lion members by Christmas eve. 1t is
an honor to belong to the Red Cross
If you aren't already wearing the little
button. enroll at once. The member.
ship costs just $1.00 year. Another
dollar brings you the Red Cross Maya
zine for twelve months.
Suffering Europe. especially the
women and children, needs your help

PENNSYLVANIA SOLDIER
THANKS LOCAL RED CROSS

Much has been said and many false
hoods have been told of the work done
by the Red Cross. When the Christ
mas packets for the Red Cross went
from Ladysmith to the Central head
quarters the cards of the donors were
enclosed. Now comes this splendid
letter from soldier boy at a Mary
land camp telling of the distribution
Of the packets and what they and the
work of the Red Cross means to the
men. This is an answer to the false
hoods.
Here is the letter:
To Mrs. r. w. Lane.
Mr.. Carl Dregne,
Mrs Il. f. Pies,
LadySmith, Wis
Camp Meade, Md, Dec. %, 1917.
Dear Friends:
Red Cross parcels reach strange des-
tinations. ! presume you expected
that your parcel would go over seas
but as the society tried to spread joy
among the environments as well as in
France, it came about that your pack
age fell into my hands.
On Christmas day /, with party
of other soldiers was detailed to the
Red Cross warehouse to help dis
tribute presents. All day long great
lines of men stood in the binding snow
and sleet awaiting their change to get
a remembrance. Kits, boxes, socks,
sweaters, mufflers, wristlets and he'll
NETS were given out by the thousand.
Many hearts were made glad.
The Red Cross through the gener-
Gus contributions Of persons like your
selves is doing a wonderful work. Let
me thank you personally for the de-
lightfully packed box. 1t contained
many much needed articles, especially
shoe polish and tooth paste, and / ate
the goodies with a relish.
/ am Pennsylvania chap and
haven't seen my parents since last
August. | expect to- cross the pond

A happy New Year to you. | hope

TO MOTHERS
The Red\Cross Needs Your Help
to Save Women and Babes
in Europe and to Care
for Our Soldiers.

Dear Mothers: Surely you will dc
what you can to relieve the sufferings
of the homeless, wretched mothers and
children of War-torn Europe-ragged
starving, freezing, tuberculous women
and babies who for three years have
endured the horrors of hell. They
are your sisters and your sisters
children. The end is not yet for them
Think what they must go through this
winter. Think of yourself and your
little ones here in America, safe and
comfortable.
In the trenches "oyer there" are mil
lions of men undergoing Understandable
hardship and suffering and death tC
save the liberty-loving world from the
kaiser and his savage hordes. Think
of them. Remember they are stand
ing between you and the fate that God
less, E'kultur" mad Germany poured
upon the women and children of north
ern France, northern Italy, Belgium
Poland and Roumania.
OF course yen cannot go to Europe
and nurse and feed and clothe and
shelter those sufferers. But the Amer
lean Red Cross is over there doing it
the noblest labor in the worlds history
Our Red Cross is nursing and feeding
and clothing and sheltering them. And
it is conducting thousands of hospitals
and ambulance lines and comfort sta
tons for American soldiers and the
soldiers of our allies.
Yet the Red Cross cannot do enough
because it hasn't half enough mem
bers. Therefore a campaign is being
made to get fifteen million members by
Christmas eve. 1t is an homer to be.
long to the organization.
You will join, won't you? You will
see that your husband enrolls, and that
each of the children is enrolled-sure-
ly. Annual membership costs $1.00
An additional dollar brings the Red
Cross Magazine for year.

THE GREAT WAR HAS MADE
CIGARETTES A NECESSITY.

"Our boys must have their smokes.
Send them cigarettesl" This is a
familiar appeal now to all OF US.
Among those most in demand is
the now famous toasted" cigarette
LUCKY STRIKE. Thousands of this
favorite brand have been shipped to
France. There is something home
like and friendly to the boys in the
sight of the familiar green packages
with the red circle.
This homelike. appetizing quality
of the LUCKY STRIKE cigarette is
largely due to the fact that the Burley
tobacco used in making it has been
toasted. 'It's toasted" was the $50
gan" that made a great success of
LUCKY STRIKE in less than year.
Now the American Tobacco Co. is
making Is million LUCKY STRIKE
Cigarettes day.
A good part of this immense pro-
duction is making its way across tho
water to cheer our boys.
