Suppers will be taken to the grove and the men folks can come out in the evening after work in time for supper. All their friends are invited to come. AN OLOWF TO DARKEN HAIR Common garden Sage and Sulphur makes streaked, faded or gray hair dark and glossy at once. Almost everyone knows that Sage Tea and Sulphur, properly compounded, brings back the natural color and lustre to the hair when faded, streaked or gray; also ends dandruff, itching scalp and stops falling hair. Years ago the only way to get this mixture was to make it at home, which is muesy and troublesome. Nowadays we simply ask at any drug store far “Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Hair Remedy.” You will get a large bottle for about 50 cents. Everybody uses this old. famous recipe, because no one can possibly tell that you darkened your hair, as it does it so naturally and evenly. You dampen a sponge or soft brush with it and draw this through your hair, taking one small strand at a time; by morning the gray hair disap-, pears, and after another application <r two, your hair liecomes beautifully dark, thick and gioesy and you look years younger. —— o PATRONS NOTICE. I will return to my dental practice Monday morning August 3rd. Dr. Fred I. Patterson. 178t3
