TURN HAIR. DARK
90 WITH SAGE TEA
Grandma kept her locks dark, glossy
u and thick with a simple mixture 81
Loisa' Of Sage Tea and Sulphur.

1.-The old-timeI mixture OF Sage Tea
and Sulphur for darkening gray,
streaked and faded hair is grand
mothers treatment, and folks are
again using 1t to keep their hair a
good, even color, which is quite SEN
|ssble, as we are living in an age
when, youthful appearance is of the
greatest advantage. T.. s.>s.
Nowadays, though, we don't have
the troublesome task of gathering
the sage and the mussy mixing at
home. All drug stores sell the ready
fto-use product called 'Wyeth's Sage
and Sulphur Hair Remedy for
about SO cents a bottle. It is very
popular because nobody can discover
it has been applied. Simply moisten
your: comb or a soft brush with it
and draw this through your hair,
taking one small strand at a time
by morning the gray hair disappears,
but what delights the ladies with
Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur is that,
besides beautifully darkening the
hair after a few applications, it also
produces that soft 1ustre and appear:
ance Of abundance, which is so at.
tractive; besides, prevents dandruff,
itching scalp and falling hair. T. 4 l.. e

The Middleman and High Prices

The Mlddleman and High Prices
There has been a good deal of talk
about doing away with the middle
men, in order to cut down the cost Of
living which everybody admits lis
high. u,ri....4 .7r .l}t,t.Fr4 TBGelE5,rasz,
In a number of magazines. articles
have appeared in which the attempt
has been made to prove that the MIDI
dlemen-the wholesalers and retail
ers.-are to blame for these high
prices. sEl5ll
Instances have been cited where
people by purchasing "direct'' from
the manufacturer or from the big
mail order houses, actually did seem
to save some money. -
But when you come to simmer the
whole thing down and examine into
the particulars it is always found,
that, on the average, these so-called
"direct-to- consumer" institutions
charge as much and often more than
the retail merchant who conducts his
business on up4to-date principles.
And it stands to reason, that they
must, for their selling method in
wolves a great many more expenses
that are necessary in the average we'll
conducted retail store.
In fact their selling expenses are
almost if not fully twice as large as
those of the retail store, ranging as
they do from IS to 40 cents on every
dollar they take in, as against less
than twenty cents in the retail store.
, In order ITO undersell the retailer,
they would have to buy goods, on an
average 20 cents on the dollar cheap
err than the retailer pays. In other
words, theia cost price per dollar
unit must be 20 cents less--Which is
absolutely impossible, because few
manufacturers make 20 cents gross
on every dollars worth that, they
produce. ..--t,..r. e.. J. II 60. = Il
The only reason why these social
ed "direct" sellers succeed in build
. ing UP any business is, that they
pratice the method of cutting prices
on articles which have an establish
ed value in the pWblic's mind. ~:
For instance, they will sell a trade
marked article, which is advertised
to the consumert by the manufacture
err as having a SO cent value, for 80
cents. In doing this, they have no
other purpose than to impress the
readers of their advertisements with
the mistaken idea, that all their
goods On the same, basis and same
people, are foolish enough to believe
them, while as a matter Of fact, on
many articles which have no estab-
lished value their prices are higher
than are usually asked by the retail,
err =
Generally speaking, there is notad-
vantage whatever on the consumer in
buying by the misnamed "direct"s
method. He can always buy as we'll
from his home town merchant. @1iE6

: KIDNEYS AND 5.
BLADDER BOTHER
Take a glass Of Salts to flush out
your Kidneys and neutralize II
irritating acids

Kidney and Bladded weakness re-
suit from uric acid, says a noted au-
thorfy. The kidneys filter this acid
fro the blod and pass it on to the
bladded, where it often remains to
irritate and inflame, causing a burn
ing, .scalding sensation, or setting up
an irritationtats the neck of the blad-
der, obliging you TO seek relief two
or three times during the night.

this is really one Of the most simple

ounces of Jadt Salts from your phar-
macist and take tablespoonful in
a glass of water before breakfast,
continue this for, two or three days.
This will neutralizea the acids in the

DON'T LET CONSTIPATION
RUIN YOUR HEALTH
It Deadens the Brain and Weakens the
Body. Nature Needs Real and Harm

Nature does her best to fight con-
stipation and it's evil effects. She fights
to the last atom of her strength but
usually she has to have assistance.
To avoid the sluggish brain and

ed tongue and biliousness. it is unwise
to use unpleasant calomel, a medicine
so strong that it leaves most people

A great number of people have learned
that Dodson's Liver Tone (50c.) makes

A Message to Thin,
Weak, Scrawny Folks
An Easy Way to Gain 10 to 80 Lbs. Of
Solid, Healthy, Permanent Flesh.

Thin, nervous, undeveloped men and
women everywhere are heard to say, i
can't understand why / do not get fat.
/ eat plenty of good, nourishing food
The reason Is just this: You can not
get fat no matter how much you eat,
unless your digestive organs assimilate
the fat-making elements of your food
instead of passing them out through the
body as waste
What is needed is a means OF gently
urging the assimilative functions of the
stomach and intestines to absorb the
oils and fats and hand them over to the
blood, where they may reach the
starved, shrunken. rundown tissues and
build them up. The thin persons body
is like a dry sponge-eager and hungry
being deprived by the failure Of the all
mentary canal to take them from the
food. The best way to overcome this
sinful waste of flesh building elements
and TO stop the leakage of fats Is to use
Sargol, the recently discovered regen-
erative force that is recommended so
highly by physicians here and abroad.
Take a little Sargol tablet with every
meal and notice how quickly your
cheeks fill out and rolls of firm, healthy
ering each bony angle and projecting
point. Jacobs Pharmacy and other
good druggists have Sargol, or can get
II from their wholesaler, and Will re-
fund your money If you are not satisfied
with the gain in weight 1t produces as
age. It Is inexpensive, easy TO take
and highly efficient.
cautIon:-While Sargol has produced
: remarkable results in overcoming ner-
vous dyspepsia and general stomach
troubles, il should not be taken unless
you are willing TO gain ten pounds or
more for it is a wonderful flesh builder.

Modern society has nothing on the
modern stage, so far as morals go.
In truth, the balances lean bit to-
ward the stage, in the opinion of MISS
Blanche Walsh, the noted emotional
actress. who is making her first ap-
pearance in Atlanta in vaudeville.
This view was expressed by Miss
Walsh in her dressing room at the
Forsyth Monday afternoon before the
plaudits following her appearance in
1.-THE Countess Nadine" had died
away
DO | think the stage is decadent? %
she asked, echoing the query of the
interviewer. why, no. Why should
II? The morals of the people of the
stage are about as those of the people
who follow other pursuits. OF course,
there are immoral people on the
stage, Just as there are immoral peo-
nle off it. 1t all depends on the peo-
pie themselves.
Upholds Morals of Stage.
In my opinion, the conduct of the
general run Of actors and actresses
compares most favorably with the
conduct of the society people of to-
day. 1t has been claimed that the
stage has been tainted by the tango.
That is Just as absurd as many other
charges that have been made against
the people who entertain you behind
the footlights. The tango and the 9TH
er modern dances that have fallen
into disrepute belong to society. They
have been introduced on the stage
from society, and If any blame at
taches it should be placed where it
belongs.

were attached by lilac silk cords to
cards. through which were thrust sill

guest in gold.
Rising from the lacy billow which
encircled the table and resting on the
mirror was a silver vase filled with
daffodils and narcissi. Six smaller
