Diehl, 1417 Covington St., Fort Wayne, Ind. "My trouble began with an operation six years ago and I was never able to get my strength back until Tanlac built me up again. About a year ago 1 had an attack of the 'flu' too. and it left me as weak i)s a baby. “1 got on the scales the other day and found that 1 had gained twenty pounds in weight, but I wasn't surprised, as I have been eating like a bear ever since I started on Tanlac. I just feel fine all the time now and nobody to look at me would ever believe I had known a sick day.” Tanlac is sold in Decatur by Smith, Yager & Falk's and by leading druggists everywhere.

BEPRETTYITURN GRAY HAIR DARK Look Young! Nobody Can Tell If You Use Grandmother’s Simple Recipe of 6age Tes and Sulphur. Almost everyone knows that Sage Tea and Sulphur, properly com pounded, brings back the natural color and lustre to the hair when faded, streaked or gray. Years ago the only way to get this mixture was to make it at home, which is mossy and troublesome. Nowadays, by asking at any drug store for "Wyeth's Sago and Sulphur Compound,” you will get a large bottle of this famous old recept. Improved by the addition 1 of other ingredients, at a small cost. Don't stay gray! Try it! 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 t strand at a time; by morning the • gray hair disappears, and after anI other application or two ,your hair be • comes beautifully dark, glossy anil attractive.
