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 a lack of sulphur
in the hair. Our grandmother made
up a mixture of Sage Tea and Sulphur
to keep hec locks dark and beautiful,
and thousands of women and men who
value that even color, that beautiful
dark shade of hair which is so attrac-
tive, 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 darkens
the, hair so naturally, so evenly, that
nobody can possibly tell it has been
applied. You, just dampen a sponge
or soft brush with it and draw this
through your hair, taking one small
strand at a time By morning the
gray hair. disappears; but what de-
lights the ladies with Wyeths 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-Adv.

and Alleged Common Law Wife.
You stole my trunk and I want it
back"
You shot at me twice and took my
money and watch. Give me back my
money and my watch and you'll get
your trunk"
That was the substance of heated
conversation carried on in the pres
ence of Capt. Maurice Leonard and
Detective Tim Donovan in the base
ment of the National hotel between
Rose Davis and Sidney Nelson, bag
gageman at the hotel. The Davis
woman says she is Nelson's common
law wife. They are negroes.
The Davis woman told the police
that trouble started a few nights ago
when she visited the baggage room at
the hotel and found Nelson in the
room with a negro woman. Nelson
this morning pointed to two bullet
holes in the wall, the result, he says,
of the defective aim of the Davis
woman.
That broke up the common law
agreement, according to the story told
by the Davis woman, and a general
fight at the home of Amanda North
ern, 405 Lime street. resulted. The
woman had two badly discolored eyes
to attest to the story of the fight.
81 planned to leave town and bought
trunk yesterday" she said. 81 was
staying at the Northern woman's
home, but we were afraid of Sid and
went to a hotel and slept all night.
When we returned this morning the
trunk was gone"
The police were notified and went
to the hotel where Nelson was To-
Gated. Nelson admitted he took the
trunk. He said the woman had sos
of his money and his watch. She
gave him back the watch and the
money and he ordered the trunk sent
to 405 Lime street.
