GREY HAIR MAY MAKE MOTHER LOOK LIKE GRANDMOTHER. What is More Tragic than a Woman ■who Looks Old at Thirty or Forty? The tragedy of grey hair is never so great as with the woman whoso fading hair makes her appear like the grandmother of her own children. Mrs. T. A. Allenbury, a well-known resident of Meredin, W.A., who was called "mother" and "grandmother," because of her faded white hair, and who darkened it with a simple homemade mixture, recently made tho fol- ; lowing statement: —"Why, anyone can do as I did, and throw 10 or 20- years /of age from their appearance. Just prepare this simple mixture at home, which quickly darkens the hair nnd makes it, soft and glossy. To seven (7) ounces of water add loz of Bay Rum, a Joz box of Orlex Compound, and Joz of glycerine. These ingredients can be purchased at any chemists at trifling cost, and mixed at home to save unnecessary exponse. Apply to the hair twice a week until the desired shade is obtained. It does not discolour the scalp, is not sticky or greasy, and does not rub off. My friends now call me 'girl.' "—Advt. FLIES SPELL DANGER.
