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

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
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 1t so
naturally, so evenly. You just dampen
a 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 a delightful toilet
requisite and is not intended for the
cure, mitigation or prevention of dis
ease.

GIRLS ALONG COAST
WEARING TROUSERS
SKIRTS BECOMING SCARCER
AND SCARCER AS KNOCKERS
GAIN POPULARITY.

SAN FRANCISCO, Cal.-Man's
claim to pants as distinctive masculine
attire is being seriously questioned on
the Pacific coast Not only is his
right" to wear pants exclusively be-
ing questioned by the gentler sex, but
the fair ones are actually wearing 'em
everywhere.
"Ffikin' britches" have taken the
coast by storm likewise motor pants.
And their wear in public is not con-
fined to either sport. Picnicking, ten
mis-, golf have likewise seen the inva-
sion of the painted female. Pants are
now the important feature of most
every girls weekend wardrobe.
Pants Seen Everywhere.
From Los Angeles to Seattle one
sees fair painted mixers" in the stores,
"panted mixers" on the sidewalks, in
the street cars, in motor cars, on the
mountain roads Women in pants ev-
erywhere A few wear a skirted coat
in addition. But most prefer only a
l<hiki shirt.
The same sights back east would
block traffic But the west has accepted
the innovation, which began with the
war, as an improvement over skirts
for outdoor life
The only place the fair sex out here
has not yet tried to wear pants has
been in formal dress. Some think it
may come to that.

MODERN STYLES ARE AS ANCIENT
AS THE MUNlINIES OF OLD EGYPT
Paintings Sarcophag Enclosing Remains of Humans OF Fast Wv
iaton Reveal Bobbed Hair and Short Skirts Were fashion

Mexican and South American anthol-
opv at the museum, has prepared an
outline of the known history OF the
Peruvian mummies.
Both wove cloths in every weave
known to the modern textile artist and
made in some cases finer than are
made today by the best mechanical
means and the most skilled artisans.
Their pottery is unsurpassed even to-
day in its type, and their work i'll gold
and copper challenges the modern
craftsman. Unlike the Egyptians, the
Peruvians used no process OF embalm-
ing, but so dry were the sands OF GER
tain of their deserts that the dry
bodies, with their Wrappings around
them, have been preserved perfectly
to this day with the objects placed
around them.
Near the town OF Ancon, on the
coast OF Peru. was found the greatest
cemetery OF these people. A great des-
ert waste, no evidence of occupation
is seen on the surface. Even when the
first Spanish COnquerOr passed this
way in 1888 every VeStige OF human
occupation had entirely disappeared
and the location of the town was quite
forgotten. 1t was not until about sew
enty years ago that the first graves
were discovered, and for hall a cent
ury they have yielded fortunes to
treasure seekers who despoied them
to recover the golden ornaments lett
beside the bodies.
And now the mummies Of both OF
these peoples tell OF strange similari-
ties in style, adornment, manners and
industries to those Of the present gen
Grafton. 1t is a linking OF the past to
the present which holds peculiar at
traction, for the mummies, lying in
silent state, are the most popular eX-
hibit for the thousands OF visitors who
daily crowd the museum.

MAN BROUGHT UP AS
GIRL ON TINY ISLAND
spends TWO MONTHS IN OUT
SIDE WORLD AND GOES BACK
TO THE SIMPLE LIFE.

NORFOLK, Na.-Charles G. Viii
liams, who grew up in dresses as girl
on the island OF Ocracoke, has just
finished two months in the outside
world as a man, but will return to the
little island. He says he prefers dresses
and the simple life of OCracOke to life
and its temptations and perpleXities
outside.
When Williams was born tWenty-one
years ago his mother was so disap-
pointed because she wanted a daughter
that she put dresses on him, named
him Vera" and brought him up as a
girl. Nobody but his mother knew his
sex. Until he was Fl 'Vera" had never
seen any other place than Ocracoke
and its 500 inhabitants, a majority of
whom had never visited the mainland.
Two months ago Vera" was taken
to the mainland by his mother. He
bought magazine and the illustra-
tons began to open his eyes. He saw
other men and girls and realized at
once the deception that had been prac-
ticed upon him.
Then he secured a mail order cata-
logue and sent for suit of clothes.
This arrived, in care of trusty friend,
soon after he and his mother returned
to the island. He cut off his long curly
hair, put on the male attire and slipped
away from the island before daybreak,
leaving a~note for his mother, explain
ing he was tired of being a girl"
Williams found a job in a Baltimore
restaurant where he worked two
months, but the going was rough. He
was shocked by the actions of men
and women, the eternal rush and clat-
ter and noise of the outside world, so
he has now gone back to Ocracoke
and the simple life.

Kills Self as "AdOised''
By the Eight of Spades
Gambler, 65, Uses Method to Decide
Whether He Shall Live or Die.

DETROIT, Mich-William McCay
was 65 years old, and for 81 years he
had made more or less preCarious
living by gambling from Frisco to
New York and even in Europe. He
had often declared his belief that a
man should die when he reached the
age of 65. A few days ago he passed
this mark An inventory of his worldly
goods showed he was worth u cents,
besides his poor clothing, He decided
to let the cards determine whether he
should continue the game or quit.
He locked the door of his room in a
rooming house and dealt the cards.
If it came red the game would go on ;
black, it was finished.
When his lanlady forced the door OF
his room she saw a pack OF cards on
the table, with the eight of spades
face up. On the floor lay McCay, dead,
his throat cut with a razor.

CHICAGO.-Bobbed hair, conceal
ed ears, short skirts and all the other
fads and foibles associated with mod
ern STYLES are as old as the Pyramids,
according to the mute story told by
the mummies of both Egypt and Peru
in the Field Museum.
Wrapped in their pitched shroudss
and encased in sarcophagi covered
with curious paintings and heiroglyphs,
in colors still bright after three thous-
and wears or more, these mummles, all
that was mortal of a human being OF
ages ago, today link the present to a
civilization long since dead.
The daily center Of thousands OF Gu
rious ewes, for the mummies seem to
hold strange fascination for every
visitor to the museum, they are silent
spectators of the passing throngs, but
the paintings which adorn their rest
ing places tell more plainly than words
of styles, customs and manners OF a
forgotten age.
"Why, ma, they're dressed just like
the girls we see on Michigan boule-
ward" exclaimed an aged visitor to his
wife as he gazed at the strange tgures
adjoining the sarcophagi.
1T appears like they did not wear a
bit more then than they do now" the
woman answered as the pair moved
away. ./
1t is far cry from the Nile Of Cleo
patra's day to the Pacific coast Of Peru
in South America, but mummies from
both regions lying almost within reach
of each other now, in life ignorant OF
each others existence, bear graphic
evidence of the greatest similarity and
proficiency in many arts at time
when the Norsemen were raVaging
southern Europe and the old world
had almost sunk into barbarism. DR..
