in and took the soul of Georgia
Chisolm Duggan from its earth
ly habitation, it left a house
in mourning for a mother and
wife. Mrs. Duggan was born and
reared in this county at the old CHS
olm home near Free Run, being the
eldest daughter of the late Buff CHS
olm.
She was happily married to Mr.. S.
c. Duggan when still in her teens, and
it was a real union of two lives
which was crowded with happiness and
success.
The remains were brought from
Money Saturday evening and
Sunday they were taken to
Zion Church, where in the presence
of her childhood friends, size was laid
tenderly away to sleep that blessed
sleep from which none ever wake to
weep.

A Brighter Outlook for Cotton.

The time is passed when the farm
er had TO take what he was Offered
for his cotton, Notwithstanding this
is the first time since the war that
there was no cash market for our
cotton. Tho situation is sc.ious, still
but the outlook 10 better There Is a
general feeling that by October the
market will be open and cotton will
be bringing a fir price
After consulting with many Of the
farmers, we find that II has actually
cost the farmers ten cents per bale to
get the cotton on the market and it
would be at decided loss TO take any
less. No farmer who can help them
selves should offer his cotton for sale.
II there was ever time when the
farmers should stand pat, II is now.
He should demand fair price for his
cotton and his seed, there is no ex-
cuse for the seed to be selling for
less than twenty dollars a ton. Lei
those who have to sell fix the price
and stand by t md there won't be
such a slaughtering Of the best inter
est Of the South. There should exist
a feeling of unity among the farmers
and also the business interests Of the
community for II the farmers fail in
their efforts it will affect the entire
commercial and business interests Of
any country. Put aside all feelings
and let the people Of the county stand
together as enc and thus get better
prices for what we have TO sell, anil
not be charged outrageous prices for
what VIC are compelled to buy.

DIR. J. p. Tylor for State Treasurer

Our old friend, DR., J. p Taylor, of
Montgomery County, attended the
soldiers reunion ct this place on the
10th, and made many pleasant ac-
quaintances. He is the only annourc-
ed candidate, so far, for State Treas.
urcr, and knowing him as we do. we
feel assured that the states interest
would not suffer II he should have no
opposition. 1t would perhaps be diff
cult to find in the state a citizen
more worthy, or better qualified for
the duties and responsibilities of hand
ling the states money.
DR. Taylor is man of mature
years, a very successful business man,
with large experiences in business at
fairs, He has given nearly twenty
years Of his life to legislative work
either in the Lower House or Senate,
and has been almost universally re.
garded by his associates in that body,
as an industrious, and careful and
economical legislator,
While he has always been very posi-
tive and outspoken in his political
views he has also been so tolerant and
respectful toward the opinions Of 9th.
ers rs to command the confidence and
esteem of his opponents.
DR. Taylor was chairman Of Varda-
mans Campaign Committee in 1917.
and was recognized by the opposition
as an open and fair fighter, He is
strongly supported by DR., b. +. Ward,
who has konwn him intimately since
his boyhood, and it is, perhaps safe to
say that Dr. Ward is usually prudent
and careful of his endorsements, and
that he has always placed public in
terests above personal preference

COMB SAGE TEA
 INTO GRAY HAIR
Iadiesl Try Thisl Darkens Beaut- fully and nobody can teIl-erinss
 back its gloss and thickness.

Common garden sage brewed into a heavy tea, with sulphur and alcohol added, will turn gray, streaked and faded hair beautifully dark and luxuri- ant; remove every bit of dandruff, stop scalp itching and falling hair. Just a few applications will prove revelation if your hair is fading, gray, or dry, scraggly and thin. Mixing the Sage Tea and Sulphur re cipe at home, though. is troublesome. An easier way is to get the ready-to- use tonic. costing about 50 cents a large bottle. at drug stores, known as "Wyeths Sage and Sulphur Hair Rem edy," thus avoiding a lot of muss.
 While wispy, gray. faded hair is not sinful, we all desire to retain our youthful appearance and attractive ness. By darkening your hair with Wyeths Sage and Sulphur. no one can tell, because it does it so naturally
 so evenly. You just dampen sponge or soft brush with it and draw this through your hair. taking one small strand at time; by morning all gray hairs have disappeared, and after an other application or two your hair be
 comes beautifully dark, glossy, soft and luxuriant.-Adv. 43l

OrpE,ellrn THE A ' R E
JEWISH HOMES IN
 BISBEE TO OBSERVE
 FEAST OF PASSOVER
OLDEST FEAST OF HEBREW CAL ENpAR IS ATTENDED WITH
 HISTORICAL SIGNIFICANCE


 Within a few days. pesach the an. .nual Feast of Passover or of Unleaven Bread will be celebrated in Jewish homes fin Bisbee. This. the oldest feast of the Jewish Calendar, car ries us back well nign thirty-three hundred years. The awakening of Spring has its normal appeal and its practical symbolism to every primitive people. The agricultural aspect of this holiday is seen in the phrase. That it is to be kept in the season of the Month of Ripenings," when the barley sown in winter has become ripe and when an offering consisting of an omer (one-half gallon) of bar ley was brought in gratitude to the Giver of all good.
 The historical significance of the festival has over-shadowed it's agri- cultural aspect As the Feast of Free dom it commemorates the emancipa. tion of Israel from Egyptian bondage and the peoples entrance into the dignity and destiny of national life 1t thus marks the birth of the He brew people The main characteristic of its celebration has always been do. nestle. in the homes the families and the invited friends gather on the first evening Gin orthodox homes also on the second evening" to recount in song and story and amid appropriate sym bolism the deliverance of Israel The main symbols of this Seder Service are the Roasted Lamb Bone remind ing them of the lamb that was slaugh- tered as sacrifice of the Covenant: second the Matzah or Unleaven Bread to be eaten during the whole week. recalling not only the nasty prepara- ton with which the lsraelites hurried out of Egypt but also their absolute reliance upon God and readiness to trust in His leadership of them: and the Bitter Herbs suggesting vividly the bitter life of their forefathers in Egypt which. even today, have not lost their poignant application. Two other symbols of the table decorations should be noted namely the four cups of Wine allowed to each one are sym bOlica of the fOurfold phrase Tn which God ccuched the first Declaration of Independence" and the cup of wine meant for the prophet Elijah who, al ways present in spirit, brought eves anew the message of undying hope of the Messianic reign of universal jus tice freedom and peace. The Feast of the Passover has not lost it's thrill ing significance to the modern Jew To those still pining in slavery in Rus sia and Roumania, it sings the song of ultimate redemption while to those living under the blessed flag of free dom it teaches the undying lessor of gratitude together with an appre citation of the higher civic duties ant responsibilities of civic and religious i. liberty
 The Feast of Passover begins Frida! evening, April 10, 1914, and lasts on' week.

UNIT OF VALUATION IS RAISED TO $500
 BY TAX COMMITTEE
COMMITTEE OF CITIZENS AND TAX EXPERTS DECIDED ON
 MATERIAL RAISE

The unit of valuation for the bus mess property in the city of Bisbse within the precinct covered by the Sommers system was raised yesterday morning by the committee to $500 a front foot. This was agreed upon after the former unit of Si50 had been considered and had been found too small and not equal to the value or the property in question.
 At the meeting of the committee or citizens held Wednesday 1t was agrees that the unit should be S45O. An in' side given foot in the Miners Mer- chants bank building on Main street is a fair example. After considering the matter Wednesday night and yes terday morning the citizens comprls' ing the committee. aided by Assessor Ed. A. Hughes and William Young the tax expert, decided that the valuation. as a unit was not high enough, and raised it to $500.
 The reasons given for the raise in the unit are several In the first place the unit of valuation. or the loo per cent valuation, is made upon a given front foot of certasr property, 100 feet in depth and not affected by alleys, two frontages or corners. Most of the business property along Main street for instance is less than 100 feet in depth. and this would cut the valuation down below the actual cash value of the property. Along the north side of Main street, however the property has two frontages, Main street and the Subway. This might counteract the influence of the lack of d9rth in the property but the property on the other side of the street, hay. ing the same depth but no other frontage. woula Le affected.
 The tax expert, representing the Sommers System, accompanied by County Assessor 'Ed. A. Hughes and the state tax commission. C. NJ Zander. P. F. Miller and Charles Howe left last night for Douglas, where they will inaugurate the Sommers svsteu in the taxation of the city From Doug las the tax men go to Globe and iron there to Prescott. and as soon ai these two places are completed thu system will have been installed in si' of the states cities. This will be com pleted, according to the expert in th, next month
 In speaking of Bisbee. William Young, the chief expert of the systen said last night:
 'Bisbee is in a class by itself. is hard to make comparison whel your city is concerned. From wha l have seen of it Bisbee would seen to be one of the richest cities in th United States, both in physical va uation and per capita. ! think tha with the introduction of he Sommer system sn the assessments of tn business property of the city taXatio will be greatly equalized, and will r' suit in great good for the community.

TRAFFIC IN SOULS IS
 PICTURE WITH MORAL

The Phoenix Republican of Tues day morning had the following to say of Traffic in Souls which appears at the Orpheum theater today and to- morrow.
 During the past year the country as been flooded with a series of plays and pictures dealing with the white slave traffic and the social evil. They have been put forth in the guise of moral lessons and as up- lift material. If they have taught any lesson. it is that stage conditions have fallen pretty low when 1t is necessary to use such stun to fill a house. They have pandered to the lowest ideals and have earned the well merited disgust of the bulk of the public. ..t
 At the Elk's theater this week there is picture on exhibition called Traffic IT. Souls" It is described as melodrama and the bills state that it teaches a lesson It does. It is a horrible lesson to be sure; but 1t if handled very differently from most of its kind and, quite apart from its sensational name and theme, there is reason for its existence. It is based upon the findings of the Rockefeller Investigating committee and District Attorney Whitman's report for the suppression of white slavery. It is probably very free handling of tho same: but it is we'll constructed melodrama and a wonderfully fint piece of photography.
 The story it tells Is horrible and i

or picture of it's kind that l have eve seen. One cannot escape the force of it, and no grown.up should fail to see it. It will thrill you and hold your attention close throughout all it's six reels and you will be glad that you have seen 1t; but don't ex' pect to enjoy it. Its thrills do not exhilarate and there is no softer side. Don't miss it and take your son to see it with you; it will give you much to think about.

drives home it's points with sledge- hammer blows. That such conditions really exist is hard to believe but they unquestionably do exist and it is we'll to spread the fact abroad. providing it is handled in the manner that this picture handles it. The great objection to most plays of this kind is that they depict the allure ments and pleasures of this unfor tunate and degraded side in bright colors and fail to impress on one the ether side in all it's awfulness. No such 'Waticism can De applied to Traffic in Souls" It is brutaly frank in its exposition of the work ings of the underworld. There is nothing in it that pictures any brightness at all to either young man or young women; on the other hand while it does excite ones interest and thrill with the vitality of it's situa' tious. it creates feeling of absolute abhorance and intolerance of bestial conditions.
 1t is stated that over fifty thou sand young women and girls disappear annually. This picture shows how simply such a thing can be brought about. To be sure it shows men and women, of a pretty low strata; but il does not confine itself to that and ingeniously works out series o links in the chain between the scum of society and the mar higher up.
