SAGE TEA TURNS
GRAY HAIR DARK
It' Grandmother'e rocipo to bring color,
lustra and youthfulnasa to hair whan
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
nn 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
rocipe improved by the addition of
other ingredients at a small cost, all
ready for use. It is called Wyeth's
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
N and Sulphur Compound now because
' it darkens so naturally and (evenly
that nobody can tell it has been ap
plied. You simply dampen a sponge
Or soft brush with it and draw this
through the hair, taking one small
strand at a time; by morning the
gray hair has disappeared, and after
another application it becomes beau
tifully dark and appears glossy and
lustrous. The ready-to-use prepara
tion is a delightful toilet requisite
for those who desire dark hair and
a youthful appearance. It is not in
tended for the cure, mitigation or
prevention of disease. Adv.

WOMEN! DRY CLEAN
THINGS AT HOME
Try it! For a few cents you
can dry clean everything.
Save five to ten dollars quickly
by dry cleaning everything in the
home with gasoline that would be
ruined by soap and water suits,
coats, waists, silks, laces, gloves,
shoes, furs, draperies, rugs every
thing. .
Place a gallon or more of gasoline
in a dishpan or washboiler, then put
in the things' to be dry cleaned, then
wash them with Solvite soap. Short
ly everything comes out looking, like
new. Nothing fades, shrinks' or
wrinkles. Do not attempt to dry
clean without Solvite soap. This
gr.soline soap is the secret of all dry
cleaning. '
A package of, Solvite soap con
taining directions for home dry
cleaning, costs little at any drug
store. Dry clean out of doors or
away from flame. Adv.

"Two Orphans" Will. Bring to the
Notice of Omahans Some
Fine Local Talent
"The Two Orphans" to be pro
duced at the Brandeis, May 1, for
the benefit of the fatherless children
of France, is being rehearsed every
afternoon and evening and will be
a well-finished production of this,
beautiful French, play of the seven
teenth centurywith its picturesque
settings and wonderful sympathetic
story. It is written round two Nor
mandy orphans, one of them blind
the other of them, Henriette, the
role played by Miss Esther Wil
helm brings her younger sister to
Paris to have her eyes treated by
a great specialist when she is ab
ducted by a French nobleman the
Marquis de'Prelis played by Lee
Aitchison while the blind sister
falls into the hands of a band of
Paris apaches, led by Jacque La
Frochard, an outlaw which is be
ing splendidly rehearsed by Tom
my Mills of Creighton. The older
sister, after being condemned to
exile is rescued by the Chevalier de
Vaudery (Hart . Jenks) and the
blind sister who is an adopted
child having been found when a
little babe, deserted on the steps of
Notre Dame, by Henriette's father,
is restored to her sister. The story
of the play unfolds the fact that the
little blind girl, Louise, is the lost
child of the Countess de Linieres,
an important role, to which Mrs, F.
L. Prawl is bringing her experience
ecquired with Madame Modjeska
and Nance O'Neill, having played
important roles when with the com
panies of both these well known
stars.
Mrs. McLaughlin is also in the
cast, with her many years of pro
fessional work, with such well
known people as Lewis Morrison
Frederick Warde, Richard Mans
field, Herbert Kelsey and Effie
Shannon the Geo. Broadhurst pro
ductions,' and many years in stock,
in Chicago, at the old Dearborn
theater, in San Francisco at the
Alcazar, Los Angeles at the Belas
co, Denver, at the Broadway and
Elitches. Mrs. McLaughlin,- who be
fore marriage to Col. Warren R.
McLaughlin, was known profes
sionally as Isabel Gilbert, and has
occasionally since her marriage,
played in stock. She was with Eva
Lang several seasons ago at the
Brandeis, appearing there at the re
quest of Mr. O. D. Woodward, who
has known Miss Gilbert and her
work before.
The blind girl falls into her hands,
and her cruel treatment of the child
brings tears to the eyes of every

woman in the audience, in their
sympathy for the unfortunate
Louise, who is forced to sing and
beg through the streets of Paris,
dragged along by this heartless old
creature.' Miss Fogg is doing splen
did work, and is showing remark
able dramatic ability in the re
hearsal of the part and Mrs. Mc
Laughlin says she is the best LouKe
she has ever worked with in the
play, not barring Maude Fealey,
Juliette Atkinson or Mabel Morri
son, all of them well-known leading
women, which is saying much for
our clever and well-known dancer,
Adelaide Fogg.
STAY ON THE
WATER WAGON
If You Ara One Who Has Quit
Indulging in Strong Drink.
Cadomene Tablets Will Help
You Over the Rough Period.
. Csdomene Tablets are helpful to
weak nerves. Weak, faulty nerves
often come from strong drink.
Sometimes the system is impover
ished by excesses' of one kind or an
other, such as poor digestion and
faulty nutrition. Overwork, anxiety,
and even grief causes abnormal
nervous conditions. The strength of
body declines. The strength of will
rower wanes. Nervousness and
tleeplessness cause further weak
ness and loss of vitality. Years of
faithful practice taught a great
physician that the formula now
used to make Cadomene Tablets
would surely build up the health of
his patients. Now, anyone can take
this great medicine if needed. Mr.
G. A. Hoover, R. R. No. 1, Read
ing, Pa., writes : "I am taking Cado
mene Tablets with very gratifying
results. Nervousness, overwork,
and sleeplessness are my com
plaints." Mr. Joe N. Herndon, 1645 Twenty-fifth
St., Sacramento, Cal.,
wris: "I am using Cadomene
Tablets and find a great improve-
. ment has been brought about in two
days."
