LADIES! DARkEN
YOUR GRAY HAIR
Use Grandma's Sage Tea and
Sulphur Recipe and No
body Will Know.

The use of Sage and Sulphur for
restoring faded, gray hair to its nat
ural color dates back to grand
mothers time She used il to keep
her hair beautifully dark. glossy
and attractive. Whenever her hair
took on that dull, faded or streaked
appearance, this simple mixture was
applied with wonderful effect.
But brewing at home is mussy and
out-of-date. Nowadays, by asking
at any drug store for a bottle of
"Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Com
pound" you will get this famous old
preparation, improved by the addi-
ton of other ingredients, which can
be depended upon to restore natural
color and beauty to the hair.

MEXICAN BANDITS
ARE FAST|D|OUS

Mexico City, Feb. 16-Bandits are
becoming fastidious, especially those
coming from the Tampico oil re-
gions. At one time any sort of a
watch, cigar cutter, chain, knife or
cigarette holder was appreciated.
That was the time when most travel
ers carried dollar movements. But
now Swiss movements and goldman
died knives only are taken.
In the case of II. p. Jennings, "a
we'll known mining man of this city
and his party, who were robbed a
short time ago in the vicinity of
Pachuca, automobile goggles and
even spectacles seemed to be most IN
demand. Jennings automobile was
stopped just this side of the above
named mining town and the .occu-
pants, five foreigners and a Next
can, lined up in front of a ditch and
searched. 1t first was decided by
the bandits to shoot all five The
Mexican traveller, however, was elo-
quent and his pleas were needed.
The leader of the robbers, as his
share of the loot, appropriated Jen-
nings' automobile goggles. He made
such an impressive appearance that
his men grew envious and claimed
the spectacles worn by two of Jen-
nings' companions.
After prolonged debate as to
whether to shoot a few holes through
the gasoline tank of the car or cut
the tires, the band allowed the trav-
elers to bump into Pachuca on the
rims. Before giving the go ahead
signal. however, they kept a gold
cigarette case and 500 pesos Jen-
nings had dropped in the bottom of
the machine, but tossed back a sill
yer case that one of the party had
similarly hidden.

CHRISTIAN SCIENCE BRITISH WAR SHOW
LECTURER CONF c At THE STATE FAIR

Jacksonville, Fla, Feb. 10
That the Florida State Fair and
Exposition which will be held in
Jacksonville from February &c to
March 8, inclusive, will be much
greater than is anticipated by a
number of Floridians is shown by
the announcement made by General
Manager B. K. Hanafourde, who is
now in Washington, to the effect
that he had secured the big British
war exhibition for the exposition.
The exhibit, which will cover an
area of 5000 square feet space, will
be transported to this city in five
60-foot baggage cars, and was only
secured at enormous expense by the
state fair officials, who realized its
value as an added attraction to the
fair, and as an educational feature
concerning the world war.
The decision to endeavor to get
the British war exhibit for the state
air was reached several days ago
at a conferenc between A. p. An
thony, F. c. Grower, A f. Perry
and Mr.. Hanafourde, and the latter
was instructed to proceed to Wash
ington Immediately. This exhibit has
only been shown in New York and
Washington and is something en-
tirely new to the people of this sec
ton of the country.
The exhibit will include all the
ornaments, huge tanks, gas protec-
tors, shells, guns, cannons and other
paraphernalia used by the British
and French armies in France and
Belgium, and many captured relics
from the Germans and Austrians. in
addition to certain kinds of guns,
sabers, swords and cruel weapons
used by the Turks in the east
against the British.

A well known downtown druggist
says it darkens the hair so naturally
and evenly that nobody can tell it has
been applied. You simply dampen a
sponge or soft brush with it and
draw this through your hair, taking
one strand at a time. BY morning
the gray hair disappears and after
another application or two, it be-
comes beautifully dark and glossy.
Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Com
pound is a delightful toilet requisite
for those who desire more youthful
appearance. 1t is not intended for
the cure. mitigation or prevention Of
disease.-Adv.
