A CASE OF TOO MANY COOKS.

The promoters of the creamery
proposition made no misrepresenta- |
lions as to the possibilities of the |
proposition from a business point of |
view, neither did they exaggerate |
this as field offering inducements |
for well equipped plant. That the
Waxahachie plant has failed of fin |
ancial success must be attributed 10
some other cause than lack Of de- |
mand for the product and a posi-
bility of securing the material from
which to manufacture high class
product.
In attempting to make of the
| creamery matter of general inter-
est, distributing the stock to the
many instead of the few. the foun-
dation Of failure was laid What is
eyerybody's business is nobody's

are the subject There are a dozen
or more men financially interested
in this proposition who could take

creamery company. make of it a
profitable business. It is clearly a
case of the broth having been spoil

For generations Sage and Sulphur
have been used for hair and scalp
troubles. Almost everyone knows the
value Of such combination for keeping
the hair good even color, for curing
dandrutf, itching scalp and falling hair,
and for promoting the growth Of the
hair. Years ago the only way to get
Hair Tonic of this kind was to make
it in the home, which was troublesome
and not always satisfactory. Nova
days, almost any up-to-date druggist
can supply his patrons with ready to-
use product, skillfully prepared in per-
fectly equipped laboratories. 8
,An ideal preparation of this sort
is Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Hair

gone, and in less than a months time
there will be wonderful difference in
your hair.

of dandruff, losing its color or com
ing out Get a fifty cent bottle of
Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur from your
