 for system.

Kidney and Bladder weakness result from uric acid, says noted authority. The Hdneys filter this acid from. the blood and pass it on to the bladder. where it often remains to irritate and iiifame, causing burning, scalding sensation, or setting up an irritation at the neck of the bladder, obliging you to seek relief two or three times during the night. The sufferer is in constant dread, the water passes sometimes with scalding sensation and is very profuse; again, there is difficulty in avoiding it.
 Bladder weakness, most folks call. it, because they can't control urinStion. While it is extremely annoying and some. times very painful, this is really one of the most simple ailments to overcome. Get about four ounces of lad Salts from your pharmacist and take table spoonful in glass of water before breakfast, continue this for two or three days. This will neutralize the acids in the urine 60 it no longer is 8 source of irritation to the bladder and urinary or. ,ans which then act normally again.

GRAY HAIR BECOMES DARK AND BEAUTIFUL Trv Grandmother's Old Favorite Recipe of Sage Tea and
 Sulphur.

Almost everyone knows that Sage Tea and Sulphur, properly compound ed, brings back the natural color and lustre to the hair when faded. streaked or gray. Years ago the only way to get this mixture was to make 1t at home, which is mussy and troublesome.
 Nowadays we simply ask at any drug store for "Wyeth's Sage and Sul- phur Compound" You will get a large bottle of this old-time recipe improved by the addition of other ingredients. at very little cost. Everybody uses this preparation now, because no one can possibly tell that you darkened your hair. as it does 1t so naturally and evenly. You dampen a sponge or soft brush with it and draw this through your hair. taking one small strand at time: by morning the gray hair disappears, and after another ap- plication or two, your hair becomes beautifully dark. thick and glossy and you look years younger. Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Compound is a delightful toilet requisite. It is not intended for the cure, mitigation or prevention of disease.
