Hastings, Oct. 15.~During a fire that destroyed a large barn with i contents and sheds adjoining, on thy farm of Messrs. R. and L. Si » Otonabee, William Shaw, father of the two brothers, is said to have been at the top of a silo that was being filled when the fire broke out. He accomplished. the feat, although a man of seventy years, of jumping and catching the window at the top of the silo, pulling himself up and then slid- ing down an iron pipe more than thirty feet to the ground. A thous and bushels of oats, the entire crop of hay and thrashing machine were nsumed. Messrs, Shaw have insur- ance of $1,100 which will cover gs small part of the loss.

When it fades, turns gray, streaked and looks dry, wispy and scraggy, just an application or two of Sage and Sul- iphur enhances its appearance a hundredfold. Don't bother to prepare the tonic; you can get from any drug store a 50-cent bottle of "Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Compound," ready to use. This can always be depended upon to bring back the natural color, thickness and lustre of your hair and remove dandruff, stop scalp iteh- ing and falling hair. Everybody uses "Wyeth's" Sage and Sulphur because it darkens so naturally and evenly that nobody can tell it has been applied. You simply dampen a sponge or soft brush with it and draw this through the hair, taking one small strand at a time; by morning the gray hair has disappeared, and after another ap- plication it becomes beautifully dark and appears glossy, lustrous and abugdant. f Rg," get about four ounces of Jad Salts from any reliable pharm-, and take a tablespoonful in a water before breakfast for Purchased for Hire|Light, Heat, Large and Roomy Cars, Water Depts.
