TO DARkEN HAIR
APPLY SAGE TEA
Look Young! Bring Back Its
Natural Color, Gloss and
AttractiVeness

Common garden sage brewed into a
heavy tea with sulphur added, will turn
gray, streaked and faded hair beauti-
fully dark and luxuriant. Just a few
applications will prove a revelation if
your hair is fading, streaked or gray.
Mixing the Sage Tea and Sulphur rec
ipe at home, though, is troublesome.
An easier way is to get a 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 ingredients.
While wispy, gray, faded hair is not
sinful, we az desire to retain our
youthful appearance and attractiveness.
BY darkening your hair with Wyeth's
Sage and Sulphur Compound, no one
can tell, because it does it so naturally,
so evenly. You just dampen a sponge
OF soft brush with it and draw this
through your hair, taking one small
strand at a time; by morning all gray
hairs have disappeared, and, after an
other application or two, your hair be-
comes beautifully dark, glossy, soft and
luxuriant.

BOND MARKET.

New York, Dec. 6.-Marked irregulari- ty continued in todays bond market, acute weakness of a number of the spec uiative railroad mortgages being count CT ba lanced by the strength of foreign and United States government securities and better tone among industrial liens.
 Trading was again comparatively light, but the restraining effect imposed by the uncertainty of the government new financing was removed after tho market closed by the announcement of new issue on December Is of $700,- o00.O00 in short term notes. Of this sum. 40O,O0O.00O will consist of two is sues of certificates of in ebtedness, one maturing in three months with a cou pOn rate of 3 1-2 per cent. and the other maturing in one year with a four Ter cent. rate, and $200,000,000 in 1-2 year treasury notes, bearing a 1-2 per cent. coupon. Cash subscriptions will be accepted for the full $500, 100000 in treasury notes with the government receiving the right to issue additional notes for all the Victory 1-4 per cent sI00.0C0,000 of which mature on that date, that are offered for exchange.

Frisco issues were sold on publication of good re- port for the first four months of the new fiscal year, but there was no apparent outside reason for the weakness of the St. Paul and Erie groups. Seaboard Air Line stamped 4s and Louisiana and Northwestern 5's also were under pres sure.
 Foreign bonds improved in sympathy "ith the higher exchange rates. Gains ot 10 l l.. p 'ints were made by Cuba railroad ! i-2 :, Anton Jurgen 6s, Mex .can s, Framerilan. 1-2,s and Hol- and American 6's, but Cuba railroad . s were weak.
