SAGE AND SULPHUR
DARkENS GRAY HAIR
It's Grandmother's Recipe to Restore
Color, Gloss and
AttractiVeness.

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, by asking at any
drug store for "Wyeth's Sage and Sui
phur Compound" you will get a large
bottle of this famous old recipe, i'm
proved by the addition Of other in.
gradients. at a small cost.
Don't stay gray! Try it! 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 an
other application or two, your hair
becomes beautifully dark, glossy and
attractive.

Beautiful Details of Parade.

Chairman Abel has all details Of
the parade fixedy and the entire cele-
bration program has been definitely
determined by Mayor Lotion.
During the parade of the soldiers
in Main street, in column over two
blocks long, the public massed on
the sidewalks will shower them with
flowers.
Don't throw them all at the front
four, but save plenty for the center
and rear of the long column of sol
dlers," is the emphatic suggestion of
the committee to the Keokuk people.
The street will be profusely deco
rated by the merchants with the
stars and stripes, the tri-color bunt-
ing, and the red, yellow and blue
colors of the division to which the
famous 168th infantry belongs.

Everything Set for Immense
Demonstration Keokuk Will
Give the Heroes from
France.
CROWDS WILL BE BIG
Parade Will Be in Main Street,
Half Holiday Declared and
Soldiers Will Be Showered
with Flowers.

The battalion of the famous
168th infantry entering Iowa
at Keokuk will arrive Wednes-
day morning and will be the
guests of the city from $3.50 to
1890 o'clock that day.
They left New York Sunday,
on the first regimental traln'
because they come by the long
est route and all three trains
are to arrive at Camp Dodge
at the same time Wednesday
night.
C. R. Milligan, agent of the
Rock Island railroad here this
morning received the operating
orders for that road, to take
the special troop trains cut OF
Keokuk departing at 1890
Wednesday morning.
All the official information from
the war department and Camp Up
ton, New York, is exactly in line
with this program.
More and more, as time passes, the
crowd expected here that forenoon
grows in size.
IMMENSE CROWD COMING.
From thirty and forty miles away
in Illinois and Missouri as we'll as
Iowa, the people say that they are
coming to keokuk in automobiles.
They are coming from cities even
farther distant by the early morn
ing trains.
The battalion to be honored in
Keokuk will be larger than at first
planned.
1t consisted of Companies D, e, E.
G and n, and parts of the supply aid
the sanitary company Of the regi-
ment, by the latest unofficial tee
grams from New York.
Letters from men in Company :
say that company is also coming
here, but that is probably camp gos-
sip and incorrect, although keok.x
would like it better than anything
else.
With the battalion will be Lieu
tenant Colonel Stanley and CHAPLAIN
Robb, but it is commanded by Majos
Casey. There will be somewhat over
five hundred men in the whole PSF.

The fact is that General Wood is his

quarters. The general can give out
an interview day, and sometimes
two or three, and say something in

can do that is self-starter. He

Tells Safe, Certain, Speedy Relief For
Acid Indigestion

So-called stomach troubles. such as
indigestion, gas, sOurness, stomach
ache and inability to retain food. are
in probably nine cases out of ten sim
ply evidence that excessive secretion
of acid Is taking place in the stomach,
causing the formation of gas and acid
Indigestion.
Gas distends the stomach and causes
that full. oppressive, burning feeling
sometimes known as heartburn, while
the acid irritates and infames the del
icate lining of the stomach. The trou-
bic lies entirely in the excess develop
ment or secretion of acid.
To stop or prevent this souring of
the food contents of the stomach and
to neutralize the acid and make it
bland and harmless. teaspoonful OF
bisnrated magnesia- q good and eff
fective corrector of acid stomach
should be taken in a quarter of a
glass of hot or cold water after eating
or whenever gas, sourness or acidity is
felt. This sweetens the stomach and
neutralizes the acidity in few mo-
ments and is a perfectly harmless anG
inexpensive remedy to use
An antiacid such s bisurated mag
nesia which can be obtained from any
druggist. in either powder or tablet
form. enables the stomach to do its
work properly without the aid of arti-
fetal digestents. Magnesia comes II
