FEW FOLKS HAVE
GRAY HAIR NOW
Druggist Says Ladies are Using
Recipe of Sage Tea and
Sulphur.

Hair that loses its color and Iustre.
or when it fades turns gray dull and
lifeless, is caused by a lack of sulphur
in the hair. Our grandmother made
UP mixture of Sage Tea and Sulphur
to keep her locks dark and beautiful,
and thousands of women and men who
value that even color, that beautiful
dark shade of hair which is SO at
tractive, 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 a bottle of "Wyeths Sage
and Sulphur Compound" which dark
ems the hair so naturally, so evenly.
that nobody can possibly tell it haa
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
delights the ladies with Wyeth's Sage
and Sulphur Compound is that, be-
sides beautifully darkening the hair
after a few applications, 1t also brings
back the gloss and lustre and gives it
an appearance Of abundance
Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Com
pound IS a delightful toilet requisite
to impart color and a youthful APP
pearance to the hair. IL is not in
tended for the cure, mitigation or pre-
yention Of disease.

LITTLE WORK
BEFORELEACUE
Tacna-Arica Dispute To
Brought Up At Re
quest Of Bolivia

GENEVA, July 27.---The agenda
of the next meeting of the assembly
of the League of Nations to be held
here September is not expected
to contain any new subject of par
ticular Importance, though the mem
bers still have time to submit any
subjects they would like to have dis
cussed.
Thus far there is only one item
put on the agenda at the request of
a member, the Tacia-Arica dispute,
which will be listed at the request
of Bolivia.
Not many such requests are expect
ed, most of the work that will come
before the popular body of the league
being the outgrowth of work already
, begun, such as disarmament, the In
ternational court and the continual
ton of work that was referred to
special commissions such as the fight
against the white slave traffic,
against opium and for better transit
facilities.
As the work in sight stands, the
order of business, with such modifi-
cations as may be made necessary by
subsequent requests of members, will
be:
Organization Of the assembly; re
ports of special committees appoint
ed at the request of the first as
sembly including amendments to the
covenant; registration of treaties :;
the economic blockade and provision
al technical organizations of the
league including the financial COM
mittee's report on tire scheme to re
susciate Austria; election of III
Judges for the international court; i
the reduction of ornaments; Boliv-
las request for mediation in the Tao
na-Arica dispute; election of feurI
temperament members of the coun-
ell of the league; admission of new
members.
Hungary is thus far the only new
applicant for membership of the as
sembly but there are in suspense the !
previously filed applications of Lat !
via, Lithuania, Ukraine, Azerbaijan, /
Georgia, Armenia. and Lichtenstein. |
It is regarded IS pract;callv GER
tain in league circles that the as |
sembly will be called upon TO pass
on the admission of Germany Mo-
intimation has been received Of an
intention on the part OF Germany to !
make an application herself, but sew
eral delegations it is expected will
be ready to propose her, taking as
an argument for admission the fact
that the present German cabinet has
shown its intention to Loyalty execute
the country's obligations.
Germany is expected to have the
support of Italy, Austria, Bulgaria,
Switzerland and Scandinavian coun-
tries as well as that of some of the
South American delegations.
