MINSTRElS REMAIN
HERE FEW DAYS.
Play For Firemen's Dance
Saturday Night.

New Iberia is host to a bunch q
dandy good fellows for a few days
entirely unexpected, but highly wei
come.
Lasses White and his famous min
strels, who pleased and delighted {
capacity house at Elks Theatre Wed
nesday night, are the gentlemen ir
question.
They have a break in Their
schedule until Sunday, and chose
New iberia as the logical place for
the little vacation.
The Elks club has granted therl
"open house. and Mr.. Fred Patout
has made them special rates at his
hotel, and everything possible viii
be done to make their stay here en-
joyable.
Saturday night their orchestra will
furnish the music for a dance, given
for the benefit of Fire Company No.
/. If the weather is favorable this
dance will take place at the City
Park Pavilion, but arrangements
have been made to transfer it to
the Armory if the weather requires
it.
Some Of the minstrels will also
furnish entertainment between the
dances, making the evening a most
delightful one.
No doubt a great crowd will pa
tronize the Firemcn's Benefit Dance,
and swell the financial returns into
a nice figure.

A GRAPE FRUIT RECORD.

Mr.. jules Bayard brought in town
Wednesday what must be a record
breaker in the grapefruit line.
On one branch less than two feet
long were hanging seventeen perfect
grapefruit, each one five inches or
more in diameter. It was both re
markable and beautiful sight.

LADIES! DARKEN
YOUR GRAY HAIR
Use Crandma's Sage Tea and
Sulphur Recipe and Nobody
Will Know.

The use OF Sage and Sulphur for
restoring faded, gray hair TO its ma
tural color dates back TO grand
mothers time. She used 1t to keep
her hair beautifully dark, glossy and
attractive. Whenever her hair took
on that dull. faded or streaked ap-
pearance. this simple mixture was
applied with wonderful effect.
But brewing at home is nussy and
out-of date. Nowadays. by asking at
any drug store for bottle of
"wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Com
pound" you Will get this famous old
preparation. improved by the addi-
ton Of other ingredients, which can
be depended upon to restore natural
color and beauty 20 the hair.
A well-known downtown druggist
eaye n darkens the hair 30 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 time. BY morning the
gray hair disappears. and AFTER an
other application or two, II becomes
beautifully dark and glossy.
