IN MEMORIAM

In sad and loving remembrance of our lit
tie daughter and sister. Isabella Margaret
Urian, who entered her heavenly home jan
uary 49, 1919.
We loved her. yes loved her.
But her Saviour loved her more;
And He so sweetly called her.
To yonder blissful shore.
The golden gates were open,
And His gentle voice said, Come :"
And tho our hearts breaking.
She calmly entered home.
Sadly missed by Mother. Father. Sisters and
Brothers.
Sister, dear. one year has passed
Since you quietly slipped away.
I've missed you far more than be eX-
pressed
And long for you day by day.
You loved flowers dearly, Sister dear.
And God did. too, no doubt
You were the flower that bloomed so fair
That's why He picked you out.

recipe improved by the addition of
other ingredients at a small cost, all
ready for use. 1t is called Wyeth's
Sage and Sulphur Compound This can
always be depended upon to BRING
back the natural color and lustre OF
your hair.
Everybody uses 'Wyeth's" Sage and
Sulphur Compound now because II
darkens so naturally and evenly that
nobody can tell 1t has been applied
You simply dampen a sponge or sol'
brush with 1t and draw this through
the hair taking one small strand at q
time; by morning the gray hair has
disappeared, and after another appli.
cation 1t becomes beautifully dark and
appears glossy and lustrous. This
ready-to-use preparation is delight
