by adding weight and authority to one 5
) words and deeds, may increase his power
for doing good and helping in the uplift
of the race. But to assiduously seek
wealth for mere love of its glitter; to
seduously seek fame for mere love of
its applause, is, to my mind, to indulge
a kind of pusilanimity of which only
a small man is capable. Franklin cared

The truly great man, the eternal
man, is always actuated by something
nobler and holier than mere love of
wealth or fame, or of any thing of
earth. He feels, often feels from his
childhood, that he has a great mission
to perform in the world, and must full
fill it whether it bring praise or blame,
riches or poverty. He knows, too, that
he is indebted to the God that made him
for his gifts and powers, and that there
is divinity that shapes our destiny"
The little man may serve wealth and
fame, the great man must serve duty
and God. The small man may seek to
glorify himself; the great man must
seek to glorify the God of Heaven, of
whom he is the anointed priest, prophet

Editors Commercial: Your nane,

Lawson, and while friends of his who

years tell of his great and noble life.
L feel it will not be amiss to add a
few words of praise from one of the
younger generation.
1t is not often older men enconraoa
to any great extent, the boys who are
growing into manhood around them.
but from my earliest recollection Judge
Lawson always had time to stop, with
KIND and tender smile, and speak few
words of encouragement to the bows.
young and old.
Such characters as Judge Lawson have
made the world more beautiful and
young mems lives cleaner and better
for having known and being touched bv
his example of honor and integrity.
Judge Lawson was one of the ereat-
est men Union City has ever honored,
and while he did not accumulate great
wealth he did accumulate the riches of
love and high esteem from all who
came under the influence of his won
derful magic.
Many boys have gone from Union
City who can remember kind talk
from this great and noble man. a talk
from his heart, of announcement and
help, and to our dying day his words
will live as monuments to his peaceful
sleep.

GRANDMoTHER's SECRET.
To Darken the Hair and Restore Nat
 ural Color.

It is easier to preserve the color oi the hair than to restore it, although Il is possible to do both. Our grand mothers understood the secret. They made a sage tea," and their dark glossy hair long after middle life was due to this fact. Our mothers have gray hairs before they are fifty, but they are beginning to appreciate the wisdom of our grandfnothers in using sage tea" for their hair and are fast following suit.
 The present generation has the ad- vantage of the past in that it can get ready-to-use preparation called Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Hair Rem edy: AS a scalp tonic and color re- storer this preparation is vastly supe- rior to the ordinary sage tea" made by our grandmothers.
 The growth and beauty of the hair depends on healthy condition of the scalp. Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Hair Remedy quickly kills the dand- ruff germs which rob the hair of it's life, color and lustre, makes the scalp clean and healthy. gives the hair strength color and beauty. and makes it grow.
