The result OF the election proved
beyond any question of argument that
the charter changes question had no
effect upon the primary
Two Of the hardest fighters for
charter changes were defeated, and
four of the hardest opponents TO the
proposed charter were elected, one OF
them leading the ticket in Jefferson
ward, while in the same ward, hot

Another instance OF the fact that
the charter changes problem had no
part IN the primary was reflected in
the defeat of Gilbert X. Pollock. who
is p strong advocate OF the proposed
charter. and who inttmates that the
proposed charter. as passed upon by
the Legislature. abolishes the board
without more edo.
The principal point as indicated by
the result is that the traction guess

defeat OF some candidates and the
denomination Of others.

GRAY HAIR BECOMES
DARK AND BEAUTIFUL
Look Years Younger! Try Grand
mas Recipe Of Sage and Sulphur
and Nobody Will Know.

Almost everyone knows that Sage
Tea and Sulphur, properly compound
ed, brings back the natural color and
lustre to the hair when faded, streak
ed or gray. Years ago the only way to
get this mixture was to make 1t at
home. which is mussy and trouble
some.
Nowadays we simply ask at any
drug store for "Wyeths Sage and Sui
phur Compound" You will get large
bottle of this old-time recipe improved
by the addition Of other ingredients,
at very little cost Everybody uses
this preparation now. because no one
can possibly tell that you darkened
your hair, as it does it so naturally
and evenly. You 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, and after another ap-
plication or two, your hair becomes
beautifully dark, thick and glossy and
you look years younger. Wyeth's Sage
and Sulphur Compound is delightful
