Evening Trnnicrlpf FEW FOLKS HAVE GRAY HAIR NOW Druggist Says Ladies Are Using Recipe of Sage Tea and Sulphur. Hair that loses Its color and lustre. t or when it fades, turns gray, dull and i lifeless, is caused by a lack of sulphur i in the hair. Our grandmother made up a mixture of Sage Tea and Sulphur , to keep her locks dark and beautiful, i and thousands of women and men who ' value that even color, that beautiful 1 dark shade of hair which is so attractive, use only this old-time recipe. Nowadays we get this famous mix- 1 hire improved by the addition of other 1 ingredients by asking at any drug i store for a bottle of “Wyeth’s Sage and Sulphur Compound,” which dark- ' ( ens the hair so naturally, so evenly, , that nobody can possibly tell it lias i been applied. You just dampen a ' sponge or soft brush with it and draw j this through your hair, taking one i small strand at a time, By morning 1 the gray hair disappears; but what , delights the ladies witlt Wyeth’s Sage and Sulphur Compound is that, besides beautifully darkening the hair alter a few applications, it also brings back the gloss and lustre and gives it i »n nnnenrance of abundance

Swiss Accordian Factory In Operation At Berne Berne, July 10.—The Swiss Accordian Co. is Berne's latest active In dustry. The accordian company is no longer only on paper, but is actively engaged in the manufacture of accordlans and other musical Instruments It is the first factory of this kind in the United States. Six men are now kept busy and the prospects for the company are very bright. The company was incorporated this spring. That the stockholders have faith In their new enterprise is evidenced by the fact that new stock Is being sold right along, and many of the old stockholders are increasing their amounts. The building, formerly used by the Berne Broom Co. has been remodeled and arranged into a practical workshop for the company. At the present time the six employees are busy making parts tor the accordians. The manufactory of these instruments requires that much of the work be done by hand. Because of the extreme fineness of some of the work, much time is necessary in the making of these parts and the most exact workmanship is essential. The factory work is under the supervision of Chris Zuercher, who came here last spring from Switzerland. Mr. Zuercher recently stated that this is the fourth accordian factory which lie lias helped to start. Much new machinery has been bought by the company and most ot this has been installed. Practically all of the raw material used in this work must be imported from Switzerland and Germany. Igirge consignments of raw material have been received from foreign countries and are now being utilized. Tile local company has prospects for a big business. Orders have been received for many instruments. o Mr. and Mrs. Robert Kriek visited at the Dr. A. Reusser home at Berne, Sunday.
