The old-time mixture of Sage Tea and Sulphur for darkening gray, streaked and faded hair is grandmoth- er's treatment, and folks are again us- ing it to keep their hair a good, even color, which is quite sensible, as we are ng in an age when a youthful appearance. is of the greatest advan- tage Nowadays, though, we don’t have the troublesome task of gathering the sage and the mussy mixing at home. All drug stores sell the ready-to-use product called “Wyeth's Sage and Sul- phur Compound” for about 50 cents a bottle. It is very popular because no- body can discover it has been applied. Simply moisten your comb or a brush with it and draw this through your hai taking one small strand at a time; by moming the gray hair disap- pears, but what delights the ladies with Wyeth’s Sage and Sulphur is that, besides beautifully darkening the hair after a few applications, it also produces that soft lustre and appearance of abundance which is so attractive; be- sides, prevents dandruff, itching scalp and falling hair.

JUDICIAL SETTLEMENT OF INTERNATIONAL DISPUTES Favored by Dr. John Wesley Hall, President of Peace Forum. Winsted, Conn., Nov. 20.—Dr. John Wesley Hill, president of the Inter- national Peace Forum, speaking at a meeting of the religious education as- sociation, favored the judicial settle- ment of international disputes by the establishment of a supreme court of the world. “There is nothing spectacular in this plan,” he said. “It proposes no Argo- nautic peace joy-riding expedition in quest of the impossible. It is not a stop-the-war prescription, guaranteed to cure the malady of war overnight, nor is it an immediate disarmament plan. The goal of absolute peace can- not be reached at a bound. It never be reached. We seek perfection by approximation.” BJECTIONS TO PROBATING WILL OF AMOS ENO d by Relatives—Residuary Estate. Left to Columbia University.
