GRANDMA USED SAGE
TEA TO DARKEN HAIR
She mixed Sulphur with it to
Restore Color, Gloss,
Youthfulness. 49,

Common garden sage brewed into a
heavy tea with sulphur added. will
turn gray, streaked and faded hair
beautifully dark and luxuriant. Just
a few applications will prove revela-
ton if your hair is fading, streaked or
gray. Mixing the Sage Tea and Sui
phur recipe at home, though, is trou-
blesome. An easier way is to get a
bottle of Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur
Compound at any drug store all ready
for USE This is the old-time recipe
improved by the addition Of other In
gradients.
While wispy, gray, faded hair is not
sinful, we all desire to retain our
youthful! appearance and attractive
ness. By darkening your hair with
Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Compound,
no one can tell, because It does it so
naturally, so evenly. You just dampen
sponge or soft brush with it and
draw this through your hair, taking
one small strand at time; by morning
all gray hairs have disappeared. and,
after another application or two, your
hair becomes beautifully dark, glossy,
soft and luxuriant.
This preparation is delightful toilet
requisite and is not intended for the
cure, mitigation or prevention Of dis
ease.

sKILLFUL IN USE OF POISON
South African Bushmen Had Weapon
Which in Other Hands Might
Have Been Invincible.

The bushmen. Africa's pygmies of
the South, who succumbed SO quickly
to civilization, are becoming rarer
every day. Famine, wars and the white
mans Entertainments have killed off
thousands.
The one great achievement of these
children of the woods is their skillful
use of poisons. In the hands of more
subtle people the poisoned arrow might
have been an invincible weapon. but
for the bushman it only delayed inev-
table defeat
The bushman's arrow is toy of
light reed until he turns it into a
certain death dealer by covering the
tip with one Of his favorite poisons.
A certain caterpillar of the jungle, the
most venomous snakes and spiders.
poisonous roots and leaves all yield
their power to kill to the use of these
natives.
Special men of the tribe prepare the
poisons for their purpose, usually heat
Ing them in a dish before dipping the
dart into them. While waiting for their
poisonous brew to cook, the poison con
coctors dance about the fire in excite
ment at the coming hunt or combat.
Skulking in breathless silence upon an
imaginary enemy, they suddenly leap
up and discharge the fatal arrows.
after which they shift easily to the
part Of the victim, and writhe and
howl with all the agony of the hunted.
Exhaustion and the completion of the
poison put an end to this vivid re-

LIES FAR BELOW SEA LEVEL
Forbidding Death Valley, in California,
Was Formerly the Bed of
Salt Lake. "

Death valley, California, is said to
be, the lowest dry land in the United
States; it is ZIG feet below sea level.
The name of Death valley is gruesome
enough in itself, but to enhance this
effect the mountains thereabouts are
called the Funeral range.
While Death valley is the lowest
dry land in the country Mount Whit
ney, which is less than eighty miles
from the point of lowest depression, is
one of the highest points of land in
the United States, its summit being
14,5O1 feet above sea level.
Death valley was formerly the bed
of salt lake and is $50 miles in
length. A small salt marsh still oc-
cuples part of it. There are few
places in Death valley where fresh wa
ter is Obtainable. The best known are
Bennett wells and Saratoga springs.
For the greater part of the time
Death valley is gigantic furnace of
burning hot shifting sand dunes. At
times this strange desert is filed with
wonderful colors. The air is very dry.
and at dawn the light is very white
and minus the mist usually associated
with that time of day. Gradually a
faint azure tint appears and deepens
above the gray-tan dunes. AS the, sun
rises over the desert the pastel tints
of Sky and sands burn into brighter
shades until at noon the very atmos-
phere vibrates into hot vividness.
Toward twilight the reds Of sky and
desert shade into deep puppies and
black.
