LADIES! DARKEN
YOUR GRAY HAIR
Use Grandma's Sage Tea and
Sulphur Recipe and Nobody
will Know.

The use of Sage and Sulphur for re-
storing faded, gray hair to it's natural
color ties back to grandmother's
time. She used it to keep her hair
beautifully dark, glossy and. attrac-
tive. Whenever her hair took on that
dull, faded or streaked appearance,
this simple mixture was applied with
wonderful elfect.
But brewing at home is mussy and
out-of-date. Nowadays, by asking at
any drug store for bottle of ''Wyeth's
Sage and Sulphur Compound" you
will get this famous old preparation,
improved by the addition of other in
gradients, which can be depended up
on to restore natural color and beauty
to the hair.
A well-known downtown druggist
saws 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 1t and draw
this through your hair, taking one
strand at a time. BY morning the
gray hair disappears, and after an
other application or two, it becomes
beautifully dark and glossy.
Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Com
pound is a delightful toilet requisite
for those who desire more youthful
appearance. It Is not intended for
the cure, mitigation or prevention Of
disease.

big cousin, Jumper the Hare, arrived
at the place in the Green Forest
where Peter had talked with Old
Mother Nature the day before. She
was waiting for them.
$50 you really have decided to come
to school," said she by way Of greet
aYes'm." replied Peter. little BASH
tongue at all
THAT is good" declared Old Mother
Nature. You have made good be-
ginning by being prompt. Prompt
things in life. but a lot Of people
never learn it. Now ! am very. very
busy these days. as you know. SO we
will begin school at once. Before
either of you ask any questions
shall ask q few myself. Peter, /
want to find out just how much you
know about yourself. You know It
is a waste OF time to tell people
things they already know. What do
you look like7saWhere- DO you live?
What do you eat?' 49,. T.
Peter scratched long. ear with a
long hind foot and hesitated as II he
didn't know just how to begin. OLD
Mother Nature smiled encouragfngly,
and finally Peter began. rather
timidly.
'Of course" said he. "as I never
have seen myself the only way know
how I look is by the way other mem
'bers Of my family look. I suppose in
a way / look like all the rest of the
Rabbit family. To begin with. am
not very big. ! have long hind legs
and feet and short front ones I sup
pose those long hind ones are SO that
] can make long jumps when ! am in
a hurry"
Old Mother Nature nodded and
Peter. taking courage continued: MY
hind legs are stout and strong, but
my front ones are rather weak. /
guess this is because ! do not have
great deal of use for the front ones.
When sit up. as am rather fond of
doing, l drop them in front. / can't
fold them as Happy Jack Squirrel
does his. My coat is a mixture of
brown and gray. more brown in sum
mer and more gray in winter. My
ears are longer for my size than are
the ears of most animals. but really
not SO very long after all. not nearly
so long for my size as Cousin Jump
er's are for his. My tail doesn't
amount to much. It Is so short 1t is
hardly worth calling tail. 1t Is
white like LITTLE bunch Of cotton
and / suppose that is why I am call
ed Cottontail Rabbit. though I<have
heard some folks call me the Gray
Rabbit.

Fl. M'HENRy HOSPITAL
BUILDINGS IN DEMAND
Wanted for Disabled Soldiers and
i Also for Use by City Of
r Baltimore.

Two applications have been made
to the War Department Tor pefmis-
sion to use the buildings OF the Army
general hospital on the government
reservation at Fort McHenIy; h ~
baltimore, no longer required by the
Army Medical Corps. One application
comes from the Public Health Service.
which desires the buildings Tor the
use Of disabled soldiers Of the world
war, and the other comes from tne
use az a municipal hospital pending
the erection Of buildings by the NUM-
cipality. Secretary Baker has the
matter under consideration and is ex-
pccted to announce his decision In a
short time.
The situation is complicated by tne
fact that the existing buildings en-
croach on the site selected by the
government for the erection of the
memorial to Francis Scott Key. author
of the star Spangled Banner That
site was selected bfeore the Cnlted
States entered the war against the
central powers. Work on the memo
rial was suspended during the war to
permit the erection of the hospital
buildings and was to be resumed when
they were removed.
In view of the desire for the con-
tinued use of the buildings for an
indefinite period. the municipal
authorities Of Baltimore have sug-
gosted the selection of another site
for the Key memorial Secretary
Baker has referred that question to
the National Commission on Fine Arts
and will be guided by its judgment.
Congress appropriated $4,000 for the
memorial and all that is needed to
complete it is the placement OF the
pedestal and statue now on the
ground, in storage. and the improve
ment Of the approaches. So far about
one-half the appropriation has been
expended and most Of the balance
pledged.
