TWO YEARS RECORD
A fine SHOWING
Hattiesburg Trust and Banking Com
pany Publishes An Encour-
aging Statement.

A record Of two years growth of
The Hattiesburg Trust & Banking Co.
is shown in today's issue of The News
and it is a record which The News
takes pleasure in placing before the
public.
Figures speak for themselves and
the figures of this statement need no
explanation, for the merest tyro of
business and business methods can
take these figures and understand that
the Hattiesburg Trust & Banking Co.
has enjoyed a steady and splendid
growth. But beneath the surface
these figures tell of other things be-
sides mere money growth. They tell
of wise and careful management,
broad enough to comprehend the re-
sources Of this section and its bust
ness interests and far-sighted enough
to assist in their upbuilding and thus
participate In their prosperity. They
tell of untiring effort in the face of
many adverse conditions--a stickto-it-
ness that is always the fore-runner OF
success. They tell of the confidence
of the public, confidence that has
increased from day to day and from
year to year, bulwark in times of
stress, an inspiration to the men who
have made the Hattiesburg Trust &
Banking Co. what it is.
And what do these figures tell?
Tristan increase of $142,522.21 in
total resources in two years, or AZ per
cent.
Second-An increase of $141.036.55
in deposits in two years, or 1872 per
cent.
Third-An increase of $55,839.96 in
quick assets or money reserve in two
years, or 112 per cent.
Fourth-An increase of $28,465. SO in
total profits over two years ago, or
204 per cent increase in profit &C.
count, which means a net earning on
capital stock Of approximately ten per
cent over a period when dividends
were about as scarce as the proverbial
hens teeth.

falling HAIR
Easy to Stop it and Make it Lustrlous
and Beautiful.

If your hair is falling out; If you
have dull, unattractive hair, or If
you need a daily hair dressing, read
what Mrs. Hettie Hedgman of Mel
vile, Erie county, Ohio, writes June
8, 1910, about Partisan Sage
Il used Partisan Sage for falling
hair and find it the finest thing l ever
heard of. My hair was falling out by
combs full, and could run my fingers
through it and they would hang full
of loose hair. ! washed my hair and
got bottle of Partisan Sage and used
two applications, and could see
great difference. My hair was lus-
trious and nice and had almost stop
ped falling out, and by the use of
one more bottle it stopped altogeth-
err"
For women, for men or for children
Partisan Sage is without any doubt
the finest preparation for the hair. 1t
is guaranteed by the Owl Drug Store
to stop hair from falling; to eradi-
cate dandruff and stop itching scalp
in two weeks, or money back. 1t is
the most daintily perfumed and re-
freshing hair dressing, free from
grease or sickness, and ought to be
in every home where every member
of the family could use it daily. Large
bottle so cents at The Owl Drug Store
in Hattiesburg, and druggists every
where. The girl with the auburn
hair is on every package.

DEAFNESS CANNOT BE cuRer

DEAFNESS CANNOT BE CURED
by local applications, as they cannot

There is only one way to cure deaf

remedies. Deafness is caused by an
infiamed condition of the mucous lin
ing of the Eustachian Tube. When
this tube is infiamed you have a
rumbling sound or imperfect hearing,
and then 1t Is entirely closed. Deaf
ness is the result, and unless the in
1ammation can be taken out and this
tube restored to its normal condition.
hearing will be destroyed forever;
nine cases out OF ten are caused by
Catarrh. which is nothing but an in
famed condition of the mucous sur

Farmers of Lincoln, Copiah and 9TH
er counties will plant peanuts next
year. They are planting grain of
some kind on their land this fall, and
will harvest this not later than July,
which will give ample time for the
peanuts to mature before frost. 1t
only requires about three months for
peanuts to mature, it is said, and by
planting wheat or oats in the fall and
peanuts in the summer, two crops can
be raised on the same land, thus in
creasing the money value of the farms
of the state.
The farmers of Warren county, or
many of them, are looking around
with view to planting other crops
than cotton, and some of them may
raise peanuts the coming year. War
rem has always been good cotton

least one-haf the crop this year.

THE MAGIC BOTTLE.
II Told . Tale, vi the Wife Didns
Chfde Her Husband.

Chfdo Her Husband.
When the young couple married q
friend who laid claims to being some
what of a magician presented them
with a tall bottle Of transparent liquid,
t~nstructing them to place 1t upon their
mantel and explaining that II either Of
them ever dared to firt the contents
Of the bottle would assume a murky
color.
After they had been married a year
the wife went to the seashore for q
vacation. In her absence her husband
frequently entertained a group OF
bachelor friends with amusements
thoroughly bachelor-like, but innocent
enough. The guests inquired as to the
significance Of the tall bottle on the
mAntel, but the host persistently re-
fused to divulga the secret. Finally
or the night before the day set for
his wife's return he explained the
meaning Of the mysterious bottle.
One Of the guests, who was much
given to practical Joking, surreptitious-
" removed the cork of the bottle, Into
which he emptied the contents of his
fountain pen. When the bottle had
been thoroughly shaken 1T was re-
placed upon the mantel and carefully
concealed behind a large photograph.
The next day after the wife had re-
turned in busting the mantel she re-
moved the photograph, thus revealing
the tall bottle with its sable contents.
She very promptly took the bottle to
the sink, emptied It, rinsed It cut thor
oughly, filed 1T with clear. water and
replaced 1t on the mantei-Judge.
