SAGE TEA KEEPS
YOUR HAIR DARK
It's Grandmother's Recipe to Brtnj
Back Color, Thickness and Lustre —
Everybody la Using It Again
Gray hair, however handsome, de
notes advancing age. We all know the
advantages of a youthful appearance.
Your hair is your charm. It makes or
mars the face. When it fades, turns
gray and looks dry, wispy and scraggly,
just a few applications of Sage Tea
and Sulphur enhances its appearance a
hundred-fold.
Don't stay gray! Look young! Either
prepare the tonic at home or get from
any drug store a 50-cent bottle of
"Wveth's Sage and Sulphur Compound."
Thousands of folks recommend this
ready-to-use preparation, because it
darkens the hair beautifully and re
moves dandruff, stops scalp itching and
falling hair; besidas, no one can pos
plbly tell, as it darkens so naturally
and evenly. YouAnoisten a sponge or
soft brush with it; drawing this through
the hair, taking one small strand at a
time. By inorniug the gray hair disap
pears; after another application or two,
its natural color is restored and it be
comes thick, glossy and lustrous, arid
you appear years younger.—Adv.

DONT WASH YOUR
HAIRJWTTH SOAP
When you wash your hair, don't
use soap. Moat soaps and prepared
shampoos contain too much alkali,
which is very injurious, as it dries
the scalp and makes the hair brittle.
The beat thing to use is just plain
mulsifled Cocoanut oil, for this is
pure and entirely greaseless. It's
very cheap, and beats soaps or any
thing else all to pieces. You can get
this at any drug store, and a few
ounces will last the whole family for
months.
j Simply moisten the Lair with
water and rub it iu, about a tea
| spoonful is all that is required. It
makes an abundance of rich, creamy
lather, cleanses thoroughly, unit
rinses out easily. The hair dries
quickly and evenly, and is soft, fresh
looking, bright, fluffy, wavy and
easy to handle. Besides, it loosens
and takes out every particle of dust, I
dirt and dandruff. •
LARGE CROWDS HEAR JOHN
rCORIHACKIH EVERY CITY
Singer Who Comes Here Next Week Is
Said to Make English Beautiful Be
cause He Comes From Ireland—
Large Demand for Seats
The great popularity of John Me-
Oormack as a singer has been
where ever he has appeared the present
season, and even the largest theatres
and auditoriums have been taxed to the
utmoet to hold the people wiho floi'k to
see and hear him. His reception in
Harrisburg will 'be a repetition of that
accorded him elsewhere as the demand
for seats already assures a crowded
house here. The San Francisco ''Chron
icle'' of January IS thus spwuks oif his
fifth an-! final concert there:
"We shafcl have no more of John
MV"Cormai'k for two years. The pity of
it! But the memory of him -will abide
with us. He sang for us yesterday aft
ernoon with all his heart, and The Cort
Theatre with its seaiting capacity of 1,-
800 people, accommodated 2,200 listen
! ers. The people flowed onto the stage.
They stood up in rows at the back of
the house, and their enthusiasm was in
direct ratia with their numbers. The
encores of a McCormack Concert are
usually its most important part any
how. But yesterday people clamored
: so insistently that it struck me as being
just a little bit greedy. Yet a pretty

BADGES OF BEAVEBY
Rewards of Some European States for
Valor in Battle
All the great powers of Europe have
i some reward for conspicuous valor and
j bravery on the tield of battle, and, al
though the plain bronze Victoria cross
jis the youngest of such decorations,
j dating back only to the Crimean war in
1556, it is the most valued possession
in many a home in England to-day. The
| Austrian cross, on the other hand, is
[ the oldest.
A similar reward in Germany is the
! iron cross, instituted by King Frederick
| William 111, of Prussia in the vear
j 1813.
Russia gives as a decoration to its
; heroic soldiers the cross of St. George,
j which was founded by the famous Em
press Catherine 11. in the year 1769,
and, while the Victoria cross is of
bronze and the iron cross, as its name
implies, of iron (which is edged with
sijver), the Russian order is of gold
with a beautiful medallion of St. George
1 killing the dragon.
In Austria the cross is of gold and
| was instituted in the year 175" by the
Empress Maria Theresa soon after her
| accession to the throne. It Vara the
! same inscription as the British Vic
■ toria cross, the British having in Eng
lish "For Valour"' and the Austrian
j in Latin the word "Fortitudine."
The Order of the of Honor,
which is the reward in France, was in
; stituted by the great Napoleon, and he
j decreed that every soldier who was
decorated With that honor should have
| the additional distinction of being eu-
I titled to receive a militaTv salute from
1 officers, non commissioned' officers and
private soldiers.—'London Tit-Bits.
Penalties of Fashions
Men of fashion must have felt ex
! quisitely uncomfortable in the days of
1 beaver hats weighing ten times as much
jas the heaviest hats of to-day. Sir
Algernon West remembers wearing
about 1850 "a pair of dove-colored
trousers with two fluted stripes down
the sides and buttoned nnder the foot
with broad strips of the same material,
'Wellington bofets. whieh were sine qua
non with a man of fashion in those
days, and a coat so high in the collar
that the back of the hat rested on it.
Indeed, every hat had a crescent of
cloth on the back of the brim to pre
vent the rubbing of the beaver or iml
i tation beaver of which the hat was
! made, for silk hats were not then in- j
I vented. "—London Spectator,
CENSORSHIP CRITIC GETS
WARNING FROM THE CENSORS
Paris, Jau 26, 4.55 A. M. —Krnest
Judet, the editor of the "Eclair"' and
one the most persistent critics of the
application of the censorship, states to
day that the censors have informed him
that henceforth they would refuse to
read the proofs of his newspaper in
view of the terms used by him in an
article on the censorship and that if he
publishes news contrary to the law he
will have to bear all the consequences.
MV Judet announces that he will
take all precautions against this latter
eventuality, even to suppressing the
usual commentary on the official com
munications.
