Common garden sage brewed Into a heavy tea with sulphur added, will turn gray, streaked and faded hair beautifully dark and luxuriant. Just a few applications will prove a revela tion If your hair is fading, streaked or gray. Mixing the Sage Tea and Sul phur recipe at home, though, is trou blesome. 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 in gredients. While wispy, gray, faded hair Is not sinful, we all desire to retain our youthful appearance and attractive ness. 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 or soft brush with it and draw this through your hair, taking ,ne small strand at a time; by morning all gray hairs have disappeared, and, after another application or two, your hair becomes beautifully dark, glossy soft and luxuriant. This preparation is a delightful toilet requisite and is not intended for the cure, mitigation or prevention of dis W Many Useful Articles Ahe Sent By lied C ross To Headquarters In ' St. Louis.

Heretofore, chapters have had the priviledge of Certain choice in what i their .outfit should consist of. The i scarcity oi' materials, as well as the ; urgent necessity of keeping absolute records of all material and output ■ and to judge how much must be ar I ranged for outside of the Red Cross, ; makes it imperative to so standard | ize and concentrate our efforts, that working with the government the Red | Cross will have the very best and most intelligent service from its' va rious chapters.

The weather is fine and the far • mers are beginning to market their j cotton, which is done under diffieul ; tics. First, the roads are bad, but that is accented as the inevitable, but the bridge spanning Pickett lake, which must be crossed in order to get to Weldon, our nearest market, is and lias been for a year, in a bad condition. This matter should have been placed before the proper author ities long ago, but to quote the old adage, “whatt is everybody’s business is nobody’s business,” and thus the judge remains in happy ignorance of conditions as they are—our ridge still unsafe. After a tragedy occurs it is probable that the public will rise us one and demand that the matter be given immediate attention.

There is only one way to cure ea i tarrhal deafness, and that is by a ' constitutional remedy. Catarrhal ; deafness is caused by an inflamed condition of the mucous lining of the ; Eustachian Tube. When this tube is inflamed you have a rumbling sound or imperfect hearing, and when it is ] entirely closed, Deafness is the re sult. Unless the inflammation can be reduced and this tube restored to its normal condition, hearing will be destroyed forever. Many cases oi '< deafness are caused by catarrh, which I is an inflamed condition of the mu ! cous surfaces. Hall’s Catarrh Medi S cine acts through the blood on the mucous surfaces of the system. We will give One Hundred Dollars for any case of Catarrhal Deafness j that cannot be cured by Hails Ca tarrh Medicine. Circulars free. All Druggists, 75c. F. J.
