Secret of Their Success.
“Keeping faith with the public and giving it its money’s worth” has been the secret of the great and constantly increasing success of the ComeliPrice Players who open a six nights return engagement at the Ellis theatre next Monday night with an elaborate and complete production of the famous sensational success “In the Bishop’s Carriage.” Six years ago Mr. W. E. Cornell, who had achieved success both as a concert-pianist and as a manager, and Mr. t Happy) Hal Price, who had attracted wide attention as a versatile comedian joined hands in the enterprise which was considered hazardous at that time but which is now regarded as a shining example of what enterprising young Americans can do, for they are now firmly established in the front ranks of the popular . priced field. They change their plays every night and carry the scenery and the costumes for each. It is not to be wondered that immense attendance is confidently looked for her next week the same as the attraction has enjoyed everywhere else.

GRANDMA USED SAGE TEA TO DARKEN HAIR
She Mixed Sulphur With It to Restore 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 luxuriant, remove every bit of dandruff, stop scalp itching and falling hair. Just a few applications will prove a revelation 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 tonic, costing about 50 cents a large bottle at drug stores,' known as “Wyeth’s Sage and Sulphur Compound,” thus avoiding a lot of muss. While wispy, gray, faded hair is not sinful, we all desire to retain our youthful appearance and attractiveness. By darkening your hair with Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur, no one can tell, because it does it so naturally, so evenly. Ton just dampen a sponge or soft 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 beautifully dark, glossy, soft and luxuriant.
