If you are on the shady side of youth, there are few
memories you can look hack to, with the thrill and tender
ness of the valentines of school davs. Sometimes we won
der what hecame of those first sweethearts of youth the
shy little lassie in the gingham pinafore, the sweetheart
of the old-time sleigh ride,-the romantic 'love of our late
'teens and early twenties- You remember those valen
tines vou sent 'them? ; "Them was the days." Looking
backward, the valentine days are rosy lanterns in the
mists of the past.'
Those greatest sweethearts, our wives, may be getting
gray. But the old-time love is in their hearts. The thrill
. of a valentine to them is as tense and glamorous as long

King Tutankhamen was quite a personage in Egypt at
one period a few thousand years ago. In his own view
he was no doubt the "All Highest" of that age. Egyp
tian monarch had fine opinions of themselves and ex
acted reverence in semblance at least from all their sub
jects... Possibly he felt that much of that which makes the
'or.,goo(l.1ujj(:e.,of ..residence would lie gone when he
went out.' 'Therefore he took with him to the tomb about
all fihe goods which could be stuffed in, if the reports are
accurate. It was feltiloubtless, that he had a fine fun

some. An easier way is to get the
rcady-to-usc preparation .improved by
the addition of otiicr 'ingredients a
large bottle, at little cost, at drug stores,
known as "Wycth's Sage and Sulphur
Compound," thus avoiding a lot of
muss.
While Bray, faded hair is not sinful,
we all desire to retain our youthful ap
pearance and attractiveness. By dark
ciiinR your hair with Wycth's Sage and
Sulphur Compound, no one can tell, be;
cause it docs it so naturally, so evenly.
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 all gray hairs have
disappeared. After another application
or two your hair becomes beautifully
dark, glossy, soft and luxuriant and you
appear years younger.
