Historical Armed Coalitions. Six thousand English troops co-oper- ated in Cromwell's time with the French army under Turénne against Conde.

TO DARKEN HAIR APPLY SAGE TEA A few applications of Sage Tea and Sulphur brings back its vigor, color, gloss and thickness. Common garden sage brewed into a heavy tea with sulphur and alcohol added, will turn gray, streaked and faded hair beautifully dark and luxuri- ant, remove every bit of dandruff, stop scalp itching and falling hair. Just a few applications will prove a reve- lation if your hair is fading, gray or dry, scraggly and thin. Mixing the Sage Tea and Sulphur recipe at home, though, is troublesome, An easier way is to get the ready-to-use tonie, costing about 50 cents, a large bottle at drug| oo stores, known as “Wyeth’s Sage and Sulphur Compound,” thus ..vod.dln‘ a Jot of muss. While wispy, gray, faded hair is not einful, we all desire to retain our youthful appearance and attractiveness: By darkening your hair with Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur, no one can tell, be- cause it does so naturally, so evenly, You just dampen & sponge or moft 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 another application or two, your hair becomes b:‘autltully dark, glossy, soft and lux. ~winnt, HOUSE PASSES CHILD LABOR BILL Favorable Report on an Act Amending Charter of Groton— Amendment Concerning School Physicians in Towns Less Than 10,000—Ballot Law Amended—Fav- orable Report on $5,000 Appropriation for Improve- ment of Fort Griswold Tract—Unfavorable Report on Petition for Electric Light Plant in Windham.
