DON'T PULL OUT
THE GRAY HAIR
A Few Applications Of Simple REM
edy Will Bring Back the Ma
tural Color.

"Pul, out one gray hair and a doz-
en- will take it's place." is an old say
ing, which is, to great extent, true,
If no steps are taken to stop the
cause. When gray hairs appear it is
sign that Nature needs assistance.
It is Natures call for help. Gray
tair, dull, lifeless hair, or hair that
is falling out, is not necessarily a
sign of advancing age, for there are
thousands of elderly people with per-
feet heads of hair without a single
streak of gray.
When gray hairs come, or when
the hair seems to be lifeless or dead,
some good, reliable hair restoring
treatment should be resorted to at
once. Specialists say that one of the
test preparations to use is the old
fashioned sage tea" which our grand
parents used. The best preparation
of this kind is Wyeth's Sage and Sui
phur. Hair Remedy, a preparation of
domestic sage and sulphur, scien tiff
cally compounded with later discov-
cred hair tonics and stimulants, the
whole mixture being carefully bal
anced and tested by experts. T..
Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur is clean
and wholesome and perfectly harm
less. It refreshes dry, parched hair,
removes dandruff and gradually re-
stores faded or gray hair to it's ma
tural color. -
Don't delay another minute. Start
using Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur at
once and see what a difference few
days treatment will make in your
hair.
This preparation is offered to the
public at fifty cents q bottle, and Is
recommended and sold by all drug
gists.-Adv.

4 BRAVE AcT

The action of Gov. Geo. w.
Donaghey, or Arkansas. in freeing
$50 conyicts in one day was the
act Of brave man, prompted by
the most humane sentiment that
ever caused a heart to throb. For
four years Gov. Donaghey strove
unsuccessfulIy through successive
State legislatures to have the evil
| of the convict leasing system
abolished, only to see his desired
reform strangled by the all power
ful lobby. The governor right
fully termed the system as 'ths
legalized sale of flesh and blood tc
slaye-driving contractors. This
same ignominous traffic in Missis-
sippi was abolished through the
persistent efforts of Gov. Varda-
man. and the Governor of Arkan.
sas adopted a drastic but effective
method Of accomplishing through
the pardoning power that which
the legislature of bis State was
| not brave enough to do.

Birth Not Reported

jackson, Miss, Dec. 20, 1912
The last session Of the Legislature
enacted Il Vital Statistic Law fol-
the State Of Mississippi. The i'm.
portance and necessity for such Q
law was shown recently in the
State Of Alabama.
The November Bulletin Of the
State Board of Health Of Alabama
says:
A case of much interest has
just come to the knowledge Of this
department. A man in Jefferson
county died, leaving his widow a
piece Of property which was not
considered to be valuable. Some
months after the husbands death
a child was born. After a while
the property was sold for its taxes.
Some years later, a corporation
desired to purchase the property.
which is now worth fortune.
The investigation of titles showed
a child has the right of redemption
if it could be shown that said child
was the legitimate offspring of the
former owner. The date Of the
death of the man was known. The
date of the birth of the child had
to be proved. A search Of the re-
cords of the county health officer
showed that the doctor had failed
to report the birth. The doctor
was dead. The mother could find
no one by whom to prove the date
of her child's birth. Hence, the
mother is branded as bad wo-
man, and the child as an illegiti-
mate. The child also loses a for
tune of fifty thousand dollars, all
because the doctor failed to do bis
duty"

Bryan's Greatness Far From an
Eclipse


While there are many reasons
why Mr.. Wilson should desire to
consult Mr.. Bryan, there as just
as strong ones why Mr.. Bryan
may not wish to be connected
officially oMfcciaa II v with tho administration.
Mr.. Wilson will be President by
reason of the masterful tactics OF
Mr.. Bryan at Baltimore. Mr..
Bryan espoused Mr.. Wilson'S
cause because he believed he would
be the best candidate with which
TO crush the influences not to his
liking that have grown up in the
nation, and he has repeatedly ex-
pressed the opinion that Mr.. Viii
| son would make both an able and
strong Chief Executive, but it
does not follow that he would care
to accept a cabinet position.
MIR. Bryan lacks a lot of being a
has been." There are yet Presi-
Dental elections to come and Mr..
Bryan is still in the vigor of an
active manhood. 1t has been the
ambition of his life to be Presi-
dent, and it has not yet been re-
corded among the impossibilites
that he will not some day reach
that ambition. While Wilson and
Bryan now seems to be in accord
politically, there is no telling what
the future may produce. The
time may come when Mr.. Bryan
may feel called upon to criticise
the administration of Mr.. Wilson,
and he could do so with a great
deal more freedom from without
than from within the cabinet. At
any rate Wilson and Bryan are
competent to do their own think
ing and neither have asked ir-
responsible newspaper correspond
ents to relieve them of this re-
sponsibility. They can both take
care Of themselves. Clarion-Led-

There is valuable advice for many a
boy in the following good gospel preached
by the Senatobia Democrat: IA boys
success is largely measured by his manli-
ness. That the term Of manliness may
be understood by our youthful readers,
let it be understood that it does not mean
a boy who can chew tobacco. smoke
cigars and cigarettes, and who curses and
swears and usef obscene language, and
keeps company with boys of questionable
character. manly boy has sense
enough to know that these things detract
from the character of any boy. Most
employers feel that it is their duty to
discharge a boy with these habits almost
as quick as for absolute dishonesty. The
boy who aspires to be anything or any
body in the world cannot afford to. ape
the very worst habits in men, but should
follow only the best examples of the
best men,"

Governor Brewer and Child Con-
victs

The penitentary is not the place
for any child under sixteen years
Of age. Unless there is some over
whemingly strong reasons; some
extraordinary reason, children OF
these tender years shall not stay in
the penitentiary as long as | can
turn them out'
Thus announced Governor Earl
Brewer, Of Mississippi, a few days
ago when he issued pardons to five.
-Four Of them we're given to little
negro boys from Natchez, under
two-year sentences for pilfering;
| the other was to a poor little
lfifteen-year-old white boy from
Lafayette county who in moment
| of temptation stole a watch.
Those are brave and humane
words. The governor goes on to
say that the great state of Missis-
sippi should have a reformatory
for its delinquent minors. that they
should not Be pushed further away
from the shore and out into the
sea of crime, but a helping hand
should be held out to them.
The governor is going to urge
the legislature again in his message
when that body assemblies a year
hence, the need of such an institu-
tion for Mississippi. Meanwhile,
he is acting in the belief that small
crimes committed BY children do
not at all justify crime on the
part of the state of putting them
in the penitentiary, or on the
county farm among criminals,
beyond all hope of redemption.
Good peol le everywhere will ap-
plaud him in his course. AS long
as he determinedly stands, like the
big-hearted. tender guardian he is,
at the door Of the penite&tiary,
and protects the erring children of
Mississippi from being branded as
felons, the overwhelming senti-
ment Of the mothers and fathers
of the state, and all in fact, whol
have the love of a child and pity
in their hearts, will applaud him.
Well done Governor stick to
