EVEN at this early date parties
are being planned tor the big
game Saturday between Fort

SAGE TEA TURNS
GRAY HAIR DARK
It's Grandmother's recipe to bring color,
luitre and youth fulness to hair when
faded, streaked or gray.
That "beautiful, even shade of
dark, glossy hair can only be had by
brewing a mixture of Sage Tea and
Sulphur. Your hair is your charm.
It makes or mars the face. When it
fades, turns gray or streaked, just
an application or two of Sage and
Sulphur enhances its appearance a
hundredfold.
Don't bother to prepare the mix
ture; you can get this famous old
recipe improved by the addition of
other ingredients at a small cost, all
ready for use. It is called Wyeth'a
Sage and Sulphur Compound. This
can always be depended upon to
bring back the natural color and
lustre of your hair.
Everybody uses "Wyeth's" Sage
and Sulphur Compound now be
cause it darkens so naturally and
evenly that nobody can tell it has
been applied. You simply dampen a
sponge pr soft brush with it and
draw this through the hair,, taking
one small strand at a time; after
another application it becomes
beautifully dark and appears glossy
and lustrous. This ready-to-use
preparation is a delightful toilet
requisite for those who desire dark
hair and a youthful appearance. It
is not intended for the cure, miti
gation or prevention of disease

What class suffered most from
the epidemic of influenza. Author
ities everywhere ajrree that those in
a temporary state of "low vitality"
made ud the major portion of
fatalities.
If you are a fatalist, you will not
believe in preparedness, but if you
are a "fighter" you will see the wis
dom of keeping your body and nerv
ous system strong so that disease
will not find fertile soil in which to
carry on its ravages.
Medicine rightly used at the right
time is like the "Big Guns in War."
If your vitality is low, you ' catch
cold" all too readily, you are weak,
nevous and ailing with aches and
pains of unknown origin, you tire
easily, and are irritable and often
sleepless at night; digestion is
faulty, liver and bowels irregular,
appetite fickle and you never feel
bright and happy as you once did
Strange tremors seize you, memory
seems failing and many of the joys
Lof life are denied you, through lack
of energy and ambition.
Three grain Cadomene Tablets
were formulated by a brilliant medi
cal man, just for the treatment and
restoration to health of those who
suffer as perhaps you do.j
