The Greater Hattiesburg edi-
tion of the Hattiesburg Daily
News made an astonishing revela
tion of the progress of that splen-
did young city, and was a stroke
of enterprise for which the Daily
News should be given due credit.
Hattiesburg, for the time, at least,
is outgrowing any other city in
Mississippi.

GREATLY ADDS TO BEAUTY"

al can most highly recommend
Rexall '93' Hair Tonic as the best
of preparations for the preservation
of the hair and the promotion of its
healthy growth. 1t not only pre-
serves the hair and stops it from
falling, but it gives it gloss and
sweetness which greatly adds to its
beauty. Every woman should use
Rexall 'e3' Hair Tonic as dressing
to the hair if she desires to keep her
hair in the best condition"

The STORY Or
RExALL "9s' HAIR TONIC.

Before placing RExALL "o3" HAIR
Tonic on the market we realized
that we had formula of exceptional
value, and yet we determined to give
it thorough trial before we offered
it as Rexall preparation. We there
fore wrote to one hundred druggists
in as many cities, asking the name of
one customer who suffered from a
disease OF the hair and scalp. To
each Of these customers we sent
three bottles of the hair tonic and
asked them to try it and report
upon it.
THE RESULT: Five reported no
answer, two reported adversely and

NINETY-THREE sent enthusiastic
reports of the remedy and gave de-
tails of the splendid effect in each
individual case.
We therefore selected NINETY
THREE HAIR TONIC as the
name of this preparation, which we
believe to be the best. Could any
other name be SO significant of merit'
Any test have been more fair' Any
results more encouraging
In buying RExALL "e3" HAIR
Tonic you take no chances what
ever. If after a trial you are not
more than satisfied we will promptly
and cheerfully refund your money.

FROM TAtLAHAssG
BY Our weekly correspondsnfs

The question Of State PfohIbitionj
is destined to play al important part
in tie legislative proceedingst of
1907, and it is very probahIe that
the people of the State will be CALI
ed upon to express their sentiment
on the question in the general cleo
tion Of 1908. Senator Humphries,
who halls from Manatee county, has
already introduced his resolution
proposing an amendment ito the
Constitution which, if passed by the
Legislature and ratified by the peo-
pie, will prohibit the' manufacture
and sale of spirtuous, vinous and
malt liquors in the State of Florida
FOREVER Besides this somewhat
radical measure other legislation IN
the shape Of anti-jug lava is bound
to come up, and altogether the out
look as fer strenuous days III store
for booze fighters, liquor dealers
and manufactures.

The bill of representative. Rowe
has passed the House, requiring the
railroads of the State to provide
separate waiting rooms for whites
and blacks. II may not be general
" known but IL is fact, that In
many parts Of the State the depots
are furnished with but one waiting
room for the use of the travelling
public without regard TO color, and
the enactment OF such a law as Mr..
Rowe has succeeded in passing
through the House is both timely
and necessary. ..
The new enterprise. (Madison, Fla.) 1901-1908, 1907-04-25


In this connection the resolution
introduced by Mr.. Millinor OF Madi-
son in the House and which has been
passed by both branches of the leg
islative body, may be considered.
The resolution provides for a Stric-
ter enforcement OF laws in "dry"
counties, and authorizes a small re-
ward to be paid the sheriffs IN such
counties for the capture. and convic.
Iion OF "blind tigers" and provides
for the suspension of such sher ifs
who are direleet in their duties.
The proposed lazy is a good one and
we believe will serve the double pur-
pose Of making the sheriffs in "dry"
counties more active and at the
same time cause the "blind tigers"
to lay closer in their dens.

Three Rules
 of Health

It is an axiom among old people that a sure way to retain health is to keep the feet warm, the head cool and the bowels open. Thick hose and hat will do the former, and Dr. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin the latter. In fact, there is no surer way to retain health than by the use of this great laxative compound. It's use will keep the bowels open, the stomach ton,d and the liver active, and that is nine -tenths of health.
 Tn troubles like chronic constipation, dys- pepsia, biliousness. sick headache. stomacnacne' natulency and the hundred and one other diges- tive ills there is no surer remedy known than Dr. Csldwell's Syrup Pcpsin. It is absolutely guaranteed to cure these ailments and the cost of bottle is only 50 cents or el and as there are about 150 doses to the latter cure con be had free from violence or griping. has made friends for 1t throughout the country. and every year more people are taking 1t to their homes ana making 1t the family remedy.
 MT, Watson of Stoutsville, Mo-. was taken with chronic cons tipation and dyspepsia some to avail him. It got 80 bad that he had to take to his bed Finally he took the advice Of 6 friend and tried Dr. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin and now is glsd to say publicly that 1t cured him, and in his opinion will cure any one else or stomach liver or bowel trouble.
 MT. Watson's trouble. like that of thousands of others, was brought on by not being ape to keep his bowels open-one of tho three rules or health. If you suffer that way get pr, CaldWel 2 Syrup Pepsin now. befora you have the pain ana misery that Mir. Watson had; it VII cure & you
 s 1t did him, and the cost will be trihing. Thou sands have thanked us in letters for our efforts in calling their attention to this wonderfully curative laxative tonic.
