SAGE TEA DARKENS
HAIR To ANY SHADE
Don't stay gray! Here's simple
recipe that anybody can ap-
ply with hair brush.

The use of Sage and Sulphur for re-
storing faded. gray hair to its natural
color dates back to grandmothers
time. She used it to keep her hair
beautifully la *, glossy and attractive.
Whenever her nair took on that dull.
faded or streaked appearance, this
simple mixture was applied with won
derful effect
But brewing at home is mussy and
out-of-date. Nowadays, by asking at
any drug store for a bottle of "Wyeth's
Sage ami Sulphur Compound" you will
get this famous old preparation, inn
proved by the addition of other in
gradients, which can be depended
upon to restore natural color and
beauty to the hair
A well-known downtown druggist
says 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 it and draw
this through your hair, taking one
strand at a time. By morning the
gray hair disappears. and after another
application or two. it becomes beauti-
fully dark and glossy.-Adv.

URIC ACID IN MEAT

If you must have your meat every
day eat it, but flush your kidneys with
salts occasionally, says a noted au-
thority who tells us that meat forms
uric acid which almost paralyZes the
Kidneys in their efforts to expeI it
from the blood. They become sluggish
and weaken, then you suffer with a
dull misery in the kidney region. sharp
pains in the back or sick headache,
dizziness, your stomach sours, tongue
IS coated and when the weather is bad
you have rheumatic twinges. The
urine gets cloudy, full of sediment, the
channels often get sore and irritated,
obHging you to seek relief two or three
time during the night
To neutralize these irritating acids,
TO cleanse the kidneys and flush off
the body's urinous waste get four
ounces of Jad Salts from any phar-
macy here; take a tablespoonful in a
glass of water before breakfast for a
few days and your kidneys will then
act fine. This famous salts is made
from the acid of grapes and lemon
juice, combined with lithia, and has
been used for generations to flush and
stimulate sluggish kidneys, also to neu-
tralize the acids in urine. so it no
longer ircitates, thus ending bladder
weakness.

KEEP LOOKING YOUNG
It's Easy-If You Know DR..
Edwards Olive Tablets

The secret of keeping young is to
feel young-to do this you must watch
your liver and bowels-there's no need
of having a sallow complexion-dark
rings under your eyes-pimp les-a
bilious look in your face-dulI eyes
with no sparkle. Your doctor will tell
you 80 per cent of all sickness comes
from inactive bowels and liver
DR.. Edwards, a WELL known physi-
clan in Ohio, perfected a vegetable
compound mixed with olive oil to act
on the liver and bowels, which he gave
to his patients for years

stitute for calomeI. are gentle in their

LEOVILLE WANTS R. R. STATION
Judge Whifcomb Hears Arguments il
Injunction Suit.

I1JunctlOH sun.
The long cherished hopes of Leo
Vile, little German Catholic settle
ment in Decatur county, for a railroad
station rest today with Judge George
H. Whitcomb in the Shawnee county
district court.
Judge Whitcomb was hearing argu-
ments on an injunction suit brought
by the Chicago, Rock Island & Pa
cific Railroad company to prevent the
public utilities commission from en-
forcing an order requiring it to build
a station at Leoville. The little town.
which is two and a quarter miles from
Dresden and six miles from Selden. at
each of which places the railroad has
stations, was founded a few years ago
and has grown and prospered. It is
situated about one-half mile from the
railroad and the citizens are enthusi-
astic in their demands for a station.
Their application to the public util-
tiles commission was granted and the
order requiring the station to be built
was made. But the railroad company.
declaring the construction of a station
there when there was already one two
and a quarter miles distant, was I'M
necessary and would entail a large
needless expense, applied to the dis
trict court here for an injunction to
restrain the commission from enforc-
ing its order.
Whether Leoville gets a station de-
ponds upon the outcome of the hear
ing today.
