~GRAY HAIR MAKES ~ You LooK oLp “Use Wyeth’s Sage and Sulphur and Your Gray Hair Will Quickly Vanish. Gray hair is a mark of age, and nothing that can be said as to its beauty will offset the disadvantages of this mark of age set upon your brow. Wyeth’s Sage and Sulphur Hair Remedy darkens the hair and restores it to its youthful beauty. Our grand- mothers and their grandmothers be- fore them used sage and sulphur for darkening their hair. Nothing has ever been found more effective for this purpose than these two time- honored remedies, but Wyeth, a mod- ern chemist, has combined the two with other ingredients, which makes a delightful dressing for the hair, and which not only removes every trace of dandruff but promotes the owth of the hair. It also stops the from falling out, and makes it tha beautiful. All druggists are authorized to re- fund the money if it fails to do ex- actly as represented. Don’t neglect your hair and don’t resort to old-time hair dyes. Get a ‘bottle of Wyeth’s Sage and Sulphur from your druggist today, and notice the difference in your hair after a few days’ use. This preparation is offered to the public at fifty cents a bottle, and is recommended and sold by all drug- gists. WANTED Ladies we are employing agents to -sell our fall line of shirt waists.

MUD BATHS AND VILE WATEF‘! The Victims Drink Often and Drink Deep and Absorb With the Evil Brew Large Doses of Misery—An Un- pleasant and Costly Road to Health. A city shaped like a cup. a cup con: taining hot water. The sides of the city are clothed with pines, aud in the bollow lie the waters where the dys- peptics of the world foregather to drink and to be healed. They desire to be freed from excess of fat, from yel- low skins, from pains that catch one in the small of the back and from the stiff joints that follow hard upon the pleasures of the too abundant board. In Carlsbad you drink often and drink deep. Drinking is your main occupation. Your drinking glass is strapped over your shoulders as you wander, sipping from spring to spring as assiduously as any one bee, but you do not get honey. Your misery begins at 6. At Go’clock they call you, and you are expected to be shaved and decent before you face the world of waters and of miserable sinners at 7 o’clock. If you had not been a miserable sinner, too, you would not be here, but you have done those things* you ought not to have done and you have left undone those things you ought to have done, and your penalty is Carlsbad. So you take your place at the end of a queue 300 dyspeptics long and wish you were dead. You very nearly are, for no “morning tea” sustains you; they forbid that; it is strictly against the law. You take your turn at the “‘Spru- del” spring uncomforted by the cook. Everything contributes to your misery. A German close behind you is tread- ing on your heels and breathing loudly down your neck, and a gentleman in a curious top hat is conducting an or- chestra with intent to make you merry. He fails. You hate him. And every moment you draw nearer to the “Spru- del” spring. It leaps from the bowels of the earth toward the roof of the colonnade shrouded in its own steam, and a girl in waterproof overalls catches you a glassful by means of a long pole. Then you retire to a corner with the evil brew and try to drink it. It tastes of dead rats—hot ones, long dead. Your character may be divined by your method of dealing with it. It may be faced as one faces a pet beverage. “with an air,” or it may be dallied with in sips—or thrown away. It may beat you altogether, but this is rare. The hardened dyspeptic who does his year- 1y ““cure” has'a trick with a little glass pipe. He is imitated by the wise. Aft- er the first fell glass you hurry to the little glass pipe stall and buy a little glass pipe for your very own. and half an hour later you brace yourself to- gether for the second dose. If you have sinned deeply you may be order- ed even three. but ‘probably you wilt be let off with two goes of *‘Sprudel” and one of something lighter. An hour afterward you may have an inadequate meal of sour milk, one egg and a browny roll that would baf- fle a dentist. During the morning you will be required to undergo a bath. possibly of mud. reeking with curative properties and very expensive—as ex- pensive as the lunch you would like to bave afterward if they would let you. Erven as it stands your mockery of a meal, fruit. rice and a bit of a boiled bird climbs up to a total hither- te unassociated with such. elementary insufficiencies. At 4 o'clock you drink more water. At 10 the long day closes with a final gulp, and the dinner inter- vening is beneath the dignity of words —of any words. Sixty thousand of the sorrowful sub- ject themselves to these penalties year- ly every summer. But in spite of the 60,000 you will probably be a lonely soul in Carlsbad. Its dietetic system does not make for sociability or mirth. But as the days go by the pink hues of health begin to return to your cheek. your color ceases to be drab and your temper becomes less vile. You find you can tolerate your fellow man with some degree of courte.}y even when he breathes down your neck and clears his throat in the region of your ear. There is less of Hamlet about you and more of Puck. for your days are ordered now more in conformity with nature’s plan and your reward is an equability that is foreign to the life of broken laws in the place from whence you came. For two or three weeks this quickening process will develop and continue until in the exuberance of health you return to your land. When you are not here Carlsbad puts its shutters up and goes away to cure itself of the tedium of having cured you, and by the time it has finished with you its coffers are quite com- fortably stocked against a holiday. for you were not a *“‘cureguest” for noth- ing. Still you were cured, and a cure is always cheap. But on the whole perhaps it would have been cheaper if you had kept the law.—London Mail. Interesting Spots. *“I suppose.” says the lady next door, “that you saw many really wonderful places while you were abroad.” “Yes. indeed.” replies the returned traveler. “I think the most shivery of them all, however, was the catacorners in Rome. I have the nightmare about it yet.”"—Judge. No whip cuts so deeply as the lgsh of conscience.—Proverb. HER ENGAGEMENT. It Started Conflicting Emotions at Work In-Her Mother.

And I shall tell him 'so. You bring him to time. Clara, - You tell him that be'll either marry you next month or never. Huh! I'll show him!”, i~ : ¥ MAKING UMBRELLAS. The Way These Necessary Articles Are Put Together. In most umbrella factories the task of turning out ribs and stems is left to other factories making a specialty of those parts. . These are sent to the manufacturer, and the man whose work it is to assemble the parts inserts a bit of wire into the small holes at the end of the ribs, draws them to- gether about the main rod and adjusts the ferrule. In cutting the cloth or silk seventy- five thicknesses or thereabouts are ar- ranged upon a table at which skilled operators work. In one department there are girls who operate hemming machines. A thousand yards of hem- med goods is but a day’'s work for one of these girls. The machines doing this job attain a speed of some 3,000 revolutions a minute. After the hem ming has been done the cloth or silk is cut into triangular pieces with a knife. as before, but with a pattern laid upon the cloth. The next operation is the sewing of the triangular pieces togeth er by machinery, The covers and frames are now ready to be brought together. In al there are twenty-one places where the cover is to be attached to the frame The handle is next glued on, and the umbrella is ready for pressing and in- spection. .

The in Paris who put 27 franes on the plate at a missionary meeting. A friend remonstrated, “You canuot af- ford so much out of your small earn- ings.” “Ob, yes, I can.” she answered; “I've figured it out and know just what T can afford to give.” When asked to explain she said: “I am blind. and I said to my fellow straw workers, ‘How much money do you | spend in a year for oil in your lamps when it is too dark to work at nights They replied. ‘TI'wenty-seven francs. So,” said the poor woinan, “I fouud | that T saved so much in the year be | cause I am blind and do not need lamp, and I give it to send light to the dark heathen lands.”—Christian Her ald. Told His Fortune. While crossing the East Boston ferry the other evening a little feliow ap- | proached me, saying, “Tell yer fortune for a nickel, mister.” After a few words with the young fellow I consented. e took my hand | and said. “At first T thought you were going to become a rich man, but it's all off now.” 1 asked him his reason. { “Well. yer see. hoss. anybody who parts with his money on a scheme like | 1 played you for will never be one of them financiers.” I gave him another nickel for his philosophy.—Boston Traveler. They Used to Eat Crows. Our forefathers despised some dishes | which we regard as delicacies. In the | thirteenth century, for instance, al- though partridges abounded in Eng- land, they were eaten only by peas- ants and were never seen in the houses of the nobles. Hares, too, were | despjsed by the upper classes, and even among the poor a strong preju- dice existed against them. On the other hand, gourmets in the middle ages ate herons, cranes, crows, storks. cormorants, bitterns and other birds which would, revolt the least dainty feeder of today.—London Chronicle. Turn About. “Every husband ought to make his bride a regular allowance from the start,” said a guest at a wedding re- ception in New York. “This is but just,” he continued “because from the start every 'bride finds that she must constantly make allowances for her husband.” In a Pinch. “Can’t you assume a little more pleas- ing expression of countenance?’ asked the photographer. “Y-yes, sir,” hesitatingly answered the sitter. “Wait a minute and I'll {take off these new shoes.”—Chicago | Tribune, story is told of a poor blind woman | Reverse Methods In India: Lady Wilson, the wife of an eminent Anglo-Indian official and long resident in India, in her book. “Letters From India,” says: “It amuses me to notice the way the Indians reverse the order in which we do things. For instance. at-home men fake off their hats when they come into a house; Indians keep on their turbans. but take off their shoes. We beckon with the palms of our hands turned inward; they beckon with them turned out. My ayah lays my slippers in a row with the toes polnting toward me. The cook begins jto read his Hindustani book of recipes from the last page backward and writes his accounts from right to left. When the native carpenter uses na- tive screws he screws them in from right to left and saws inward, which makes one nervous.” A Poser.
