A HARMLESS WAY : TO DARKEN THE HAIR

A Little Sage and Sulphur Makes Gray Hair Vanish; A Remedy for All Hair Troubles.

Who doea not know the value of. Sage and Sulphur for keeping the hair dark, eoft and glossy and in good condition? As a matter of fact. Sulphur is a natural element of hair, and a deficiency of it in the hair is held by. many scalp specialists to be connected with loss of color and vitality of the hair. Unquestionably, there is no better remedy for hair and scalp troubles, especially premature grayness. than Sage and Sulphur, if properly prepared. The Wyeth Chemical Company of New Tork put out an ideal preparation of this kind, called . Wyeth' Sage and Sulphur Hair Remedy, in which Sage and Sulphur are combined with other valuable remedies for keeping the hair and scalp in clean, healthy condition. . -. If your hair is losing its color of constantly coming out. or if you are troubled with dandruff or dry, itchy scalp, get a fifty cent bottle of nw.va.. c 4 C- . 1 1 m

SURGEON'S HESITATION MAKES HORINE STAR George Horrine, the world's greatest high jumper, had a narrow squeak from not being a Jumper at all. Two or three years ago he twisted his knee and broke a tiny ligament. This bothered him at times, and the doctors suggested an operation. He talked with Dad Moulton, the Stanford trainer, and Moulton told him he would never be able to jump again If the operation were performed. When he was on the table an odd fact saved his knee. The surgeons couldn't locate the ligament and had to let him go. He went to the osteopaths, who

kneeded the displaced member back Into shape. While under their treatment it developed that Horlne had thicker cartilage around the knees and ankles than any man they had treated before. Many attribute much, of his ability to Jump to this develop, ment.

FEATURE GOES TO GERRIIT TROTTER

Bierne Holt, Contender for

M. & M. Prize, Wins After Losing First Heat.

Grand Rapids, Mich., July 10. Although all the races at the grand circuit opening were hotly contested and the time fast, considering the condition of the track, the event of most interest was the $2,000 purse for 2:30 trotters. As all but one of the seven starters are named in the M. & M. at Detroit, yesterday's afTalr was a rehearsal of that classic. Victory came to the Milwaukee 4-year-old stallion, Rlerne Holt, that was prepared at Libertyvllle by J. O. Qerrlty and well driven by him. The colt was In perfect condition and In the heats where he did not break it was no trouble for him to beat the balance of the field, his finishes being particularly strong. Tom Murphy's stallion. Dictator Todd, which won at Lansing last week and showed himself to be a sure 2:10 nag on a good day and track, was one of the choices In the betting yesterday. He won the first heat In 2:11V4. Bierne Holt making an early break, which sent him far to the rear. He trotted the last half fast, however, and finished a good third. Then Re went on and carried Dictator Todd to a break In the second mile, winning in 2:11, after which it was easy for the Cochato horse.-
