FIRST FEW GRAY HAIRS
MAY BE POSTPONED.

A feeling of sadness accompanies the discovery of the first gray hairs, which, unfortunately, are looked upon as the heralds of advancing age. Gray hairs, however, are not always an indication of advancing age, for many people have gray hairs quite early in life. Of course, it is un- natural and indicates that there Is something wrong with the individual and that Nature needs assistance in correcting the trouble. The same is true of hair that is constantly falling out and becoming thinner every day. If everything is right with Nature, the hair. even in comparatively elder ly people, should be long, thick and glossy, without even streak of gray.
 The ideal assistant to Nature in restoring and preserving the hair is Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Hair Remedy, clean and wholesome dressing for daily use. It not only removes dandruff but strengthens weak, thin and falling hair and pro- notes its growth. A few applications will restore faded or gray hair to its natural color.
 This preparation Is offered to the public at fifty cents a bottle and is recommended and sold by

 The educational purpose of the Congress is to work for the guidance of pupils in the common schools of the South, SO as to prepare them for useful careers, though unable to go to high schcol or to college. It also proposes that those taking education above the public schools, shall have their minds directed towards tech nical studies, since the approaching great day of the South in agricultu. in manufacturing and in general de- Valdpment will call for thousands who are scientifically trained It al- so believes strongly that the schools growth and guidance of the South be artificially forced by those who do not know the educational problems the South faces.

To Save Linen.

In some of the best schools the
pupils are now taught to roll table
cloths instead Of folding them, since
the folds in linen are usually the first
places that show wear, says a con-
tributor to the Delineator. The table
cloths are ironed fiat and rolled while
being ironed. 1t is best to use a ta-
Bile for the ironing board. as this
gives more space. Start to roll the
tablecloth as soon as quarter Of a
yard Is ironed and keep the roll d..
rectly In front, turning 1t as fast as
the ironing is done. Sometimes thick
brown paper is used to roll the cloth
on, but It must be the width Of the
linen. A clever woman has procured
several mailing tubes, placed them
end to end and covered them with
fancy wall paper, pasting it on Sc.
curely. This makes firm founda-
ton for the roll. Napkins should be
folded once with the iron and all
other folding done by hand so they
will not wear in the creases.

DIVIDE THE HOURS OF REST
Better to Take Sleep In !nstaIlments

at II p. NJ and rising at Z a. m, d.
vide your sleeping hours into two
portions, as, for instance, from p. m,
to $50 p. m. (flrst sleep) and from 2
a. m. to $50 a. m. in the second
sleep
This method Of sleeping in
watches" gives the brain-for all
those who do mental work-just slim
illus needed, and promotes fresh en-.
ergy and vigpr to both mind and body.
i A doctor who is a serious advocate
Of sleeping in watches gave the above
interesting theory.
Every man and woman whose work
requires large expenditure Of mental
energy should divide his or her sleep
ing hours into two" he said.

who now always take their sleep in
