Men and Women Unanimous About 1t.
Many women weep and wall and refuse
to be comforted because their once mag
nificent tresses have become thin and
faded. Many men incline to profanity
because the flies bite through the thin
thatch on their craniums. 1t will be good
news to the miserable of both sexes, to
learn that Newbro's Herpicide has been
placed upon the market. This is the new
scalp germicide and antiseptic that acts
by destroying the germ or microbe that
is the underlying cause of all hair de-
struction. Herpicide is a new prepara-
ton, made after a new formula on an
entirely new principle. Anyone who has
tried it will testify as to it's worth. Try
1t yourself and be convinced. Sold by
leading druggists. Send 10c. in stamps

REwEiGHING OF FREIGHT CARS
All Railroads of Georgia to Comply
With Order.

Circular liz. just sued by the Rail-
road Commission, requires all railroad
companies in the state to reweigh, be-
tween Nov l, 1905 and May 1, 1905, all
cars used for the transportation of
freight within the state. The order di-
reefs that after May next, the pres
emit weight of cars as stencilled upon
them, cannot be used in determining
the net weight of carload of freight,
on account of the numerous complaints
which have been made regarding these
weights. It must be shown that the
weight upon the car was made under
oath since Nov. 1, 1906, and the date
upon which it was made must appear
also upon the car.

SESSION MIGHT BE PROLONGED
Cannot Finish all Business In Lee in
One Week.

The session of Lee court, beginning
Mon day next, will be about the busiest
in the history of the county and may
necessitate an adjourned term. as is
will be next to impossible to dispose
of the cases in one week. Judge Little
john will preside and Solicitor General
Hooper will look after the prosecution
of state cases. Seven murder cases
appear on the docket for trial One
defendant is a white man, the other
six being negroes. Most of the murder
trials promise to be rather lengthy,
and these cases, with the others call
ing for attention, will probably make
the term one of the busiest ever known
in Lee county. 1t is stated that practi~
cally all the residents of the county
subject to jury duty have been sum-
moned in order that nothing may
delay the rapid handling of the term.
