WOMEN, HERE IS
A MONEY SAVER
Save five to ten dollars quickly by
dry cleaning ever.vt.iing in the liorue
Just as easy as laundering. You can
dry clean suits, coats, waists, silks,
laces, gloves, shoes, furs, draperies,
rugs, men's clothes everything
that would be ruined by soap and
water.
Place a gallon or more of gasoline
Jn a dishpan or wash boiler, then put
in the things to be cleaned and wash
them with Solvite soap. Shortly ev
erything comes out looking like new.
Nothing fades, shrinks or writi- j
kles. No pressing needed. Do not
attempt to dry clean without Sol
vite soap. This gasoline soap is the
secret of all dry cleaning.
A package of Solvite soap, con
taining directions for home dry
cleaning, costs but a few cents at
any drug, grocery or department
store. Dry clean away from flame
or out of doors.

FEW FOLKS HAVE
GRAY HAIR NOW
Druggist Says Ladies are Using
Recipe of Sage Tea and
Sulphur
Hair that loses its color and lus
ter, or whet* it fades, turns gray, dull
and lifeless, is caused by a lack ot
sulphur in the hair. Our grand
mother made up a mixture of Sage
Tea and Sulphur to keep her locks
dark and beautiful, and thousands
of women und men who value that
even color, that beautiful dark shade
of hair which is so attractive, use
only this old-time recipe.
Nowadays we get this famous
piixture improved by the addition of
other ingredients by asking at any
drug store for a bottle of 'Wyeth's
Sage and Sulphur Compound."
which darkens the hair so naturally,
so evenly, that nobody can possibly
tell it has been applied. You just
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 disap
pears; but what delights the ladies
with Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur
Compound is that, besides beautiful
ly darkening the hair after a few
applications. It also brings back the
gloss and luster and gives it an ap
pearance of abundance

Actress Tells Secret
A Well Known Actress Telia How tb
Darken Gray llulr With Simple
llomc Made Mixture
Jolcey Williams, tlie well known
actress, who was recently playing at
the Imperial Theater in St. Louis,
-Mo., made the following statement
about grav hair and how to darken
it;
"Anyone oun prepare a simple
mixture at home that will darken
gray streaked or faded hair, and
make it soft and glossy. To a half
pint of water add 1 ounce of bay
ruin, a small box of Barbo Com
pound, and i ounce of glycerine.
These ingredients can be bought at
any drug store at very little cost.
Apply to the hair twice a week until
the desired shade is obtained. This
will make a gray haired person look
20 years younger. It does not color
the scalp, is not sticky or greasy and
does not rub off.
Woman 80
Years Old
Says she owes her wonderful
health to Vinol, our Cod
Liver and Iron Tonic.
Wooster, 0. —"The grippe left me
in a weakened, run-down condition.
Doctors had given me their best tonics
without effect. As I have depended
on Vinol to build me up every spring
for the past nine years with such good
results, I tried it. My appetite im
proved, my strength came back so I
am not only taking care of my house
hold duties, but direct the manage
ment of two large farms. I tell all my
friends to use Vinol when they need
strength."—Mrs. MARTHA SICKLES.
Women who are run-down, nervous,
lack energy and working strength
should take Vinol as it contains Beef
and Cod Liver Peptones, Iron and
Hypophosphites, the very elements
needed to restore a lost appetite, en
rich the blood and create strength.
