GRAY HAIR BECOMES DARK, THICK, GLOSSY Try Grandmother's Old Favorite Recipe of Sage Tea and Sulphur. AlmoBt 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 mussy and troublesome. Nowadays we simply ask at any drug store for "Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Hair Remedy." You will get a large bottle for about f0 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 disappears, and after another application or two, your hair becomes beautifully dark, thick and glossy and you look years younger.

For Mother, Deserted by Son, There is Little Consolation
The following from the Dayton Herald is of interest as Mr. Price will appear here in recital Friday evening: The recital given by Miss Emily Wolfrath and Mr. Edwin Price Tuesday evening at the Y. W. C. A. auditorium was delightfully free from any suggestion of - the usual recital. A brief but thoroughly good program had been arranged, and it was given with a snap that was most refreshing. Miss Wolfrath, who is one of the younger teachers of voice in this city, possesses a beautiful rich contralto voice of wide register, over which she has excellent control. Miss Wolfrath sings with fine taste, and senses the I finer things in the compositions she ' presents. Her numbers were most happily chosen, and she was recalled again and again. She has a charming personality and stage presence, and she won many friends on this first i
public appearance in the city. Mr. Price is a young student, but nineteen years of age, who has gifts which promise brilliant things for the future. He, too, displayed excellent voice control, and sings with true in-; tellectual feeling. His tenor voice is ' phenomenally beautiful. His lower tones have plenty of depth, and his higher tones are exquisitely round and clear. , Preceding the program, Louis ! Shenk, teacher of both Miss Wolfrath ; and Mr. Price, gave an interesting! talk on "What Is Singing," and de-; picted music as a science and not a ! mechanical study. His talk was brief, but instructive.
Men and boys of Richmond, scattered through the length and breadth of the land, greetings to you from your mothers. Though you may have forsaken them, your mothers have not forgotten you. They are thing of you the first thing in the morning and when sleep closes their eyes at night, you, your faces, your looks and smiles, are the last thing snuffed oat from their waking thoughts. But the image of you is not snuffed out for long. It returns a little later. Your mothers dreams of you. Possibly hundreds of women In Richmond who have borne and raised children, who have deprived themselves of comforts and even necessities and have sacrificed years of their lives to give them sons a good education are now losing their earthly years alone. Probably they have no one to look out for them, to see that they are not suffering want and privations. When they are sick they have no one to minister to them. When they die there will be none of their blood relatives present at the deathbed to close their eyes. To the average person the words, "Where is my wandering boy tonight," are laughed at. The expression is a common one. But to the mother who probably has a son who has gone out in the world to make a fortune for himself, these words are filled with pathos. Of course, all of these boys promise to write home. And most of them do write for a while. Some, after a few years, come back to visit their parents and relate their success. But there is a per cent among them who disappear, soon after they leave Richmond, as if they had dropped Into water. Small as this per cent is, it is large enough to give this city a grayhaired army of forsaken women, a host of broken down, deserted mothers. Some of these mothers can be seen daily coming to the offices of various charitable organizations and asking ,a tr ty,orri locate their sons. These heartbroken mothers write and
wj.ui: in person to the newspapers and try to enlist their help. Sometimes they bring a picture of the missing son with them. Always they bring a pathetic, story of want and helplessness and of a painful longing to see their lost child before they die. What causes a Richmond boy to leave this city and go in search of his fortune elsewhere? The reasons are many and varied. There is a class of boys who leave home because of some childish prank which got them into trouble with the
authorities. They have no nerve to try to resume their former position in the society of their immediate friends
j and acquaintances. Sometimes this
position cannot be easily resumed. They are rebuffed by the former schoolmates and playfellows. And again maybe it is the hard working boy who runs away from home. Ambition and an imaginative mind are back of the disappearance of another class. Nature, too, seems to have a band In the conspiracy for It Is in the spring that young men of
this class take leave of their mothera. j The prooiem of the deserted and forsaken mother Is not merely an economic one, according to social workers. It is not merely because these women have no one to take care o them in 8n old age that they are miserable. It is the mother'love that kills them by degrees. The woman j who has raised children and then see them go away from her and cut off communication with her feels her life ; has been a failure. She considers ! herself an outcast, cursed and unwor- J thy, else why should such an aff lietion be visited upon her? Why should her children who were and must re-; main everything to her until her last breath on earth, be cut off from her so that she does not ever know wheth-; er they are living or dead? i
"The woman," said a chairity worker, "whose son has died can console herself In time. But for the mother whose son has deserted her there is no consolation. The last years of her existence are a hell on earth."

How to Look Years Less Than Your Age
The most aged face will look years younger after the use of ordinary mercolized wax for from ten days to two weeks. This remarkable substance, because of its peculiar absorptive power, actually removes the thin veil of faded or withered outer cuticle, a little at a time. Gradually the fresher, more youthful skin underneath is revealed. This absorption process being a purely hygenic one, an entirely natural complexion is acquired quite different from the artificial complexion, which appears anything but girlish, though often bear
ing painful evidence of childishness. An ounce of mercolized wax, obtainable at any drug store, is sufficient to rejuvenate any complexion. It is put on like cold cream at bedtime, and removed mornings with warm water. To eradicate such age marks as wrinkles and furrows, make a wash lotion by dissolving 1 oz. powdered saxolite in Vfe pint witch hazel. This has powerful astringent and tonic properties. It quickly effaces all kinds of wrinkles, no matter how caused, making the skin firm, smooth and young looking. (Advertisement.)
