MURFREE3BORO NEWS
For two weeks oaky twiee, far a
short while, has good old Sol showed
his face around Murfrsosboro. Every
morwUg the atmosphere. has hung
around the earth cold and stiff like a
pall?or as Fannie Hurst would say
?tike the "gray skim of cold soup".
Despite the weather conditions, the
Christmas spirit is in evidence. The
happy anticipation of joy on the faces
of the children one sees on the streets
proclaims that old Santa is on his
way. Moreover, by the time this
reaches the Herald, or before, old Sol
will probably be out in all his glory
to herald the Christmas.

AN OLD RECIPE

Qray, Faded Hair Dark
and Qlosay
Almost everyone knows that Sage
Tea and Sulphur, properly compound
ed, brings bode the natural color and
lustre to the hair when faded, streaked
or gray. 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'a Sage and Sulphur
Compound." You will get a large bot
tle of this old-time recipe improved by
the addition o* other ingredients, at
very little coat Everybody uses this
preparation now, because no one can
possibly tell that you darkened your,
hair, as it does it so naturally and even
ly. You dampen a spenge 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 tiro, your
hair becomes beautifully dark, thick and
glossy and yen look years younger.
