GRANDMA USED SAGE TEA
TO DARKEN HER GRAY HAIR
She Made Up Mixture of Sage Tea
and Sulphur to Bring Back Color,
Gloss, Thickness.

Almost everyone knows that Sage
Tea and Sulphur, properly compound
ed, brings back the natural color and
lustre to the hair when faded, streaked
or gray; also ends dandruff. itching
scalp and stops falling hair. Years
ago the only way to get this mixture
was to make it at home, which is
mussy and troublesome. Nowadays,
by asking at any store for "Wyeth's
Sage and Sulphur Hair Remedy" you
will get large bottle Of this famous
old recipe for about so cents.
Don't stay gray! Try it! No one
can possibly tell that you darkened
your hair, as 1t does It so naturally
and evenly. You dampen a sponge or
soft brush with it and draw this
through your hair, taking one small
strand at a time by morning the gray
hair disappears, and after another ap-
plication or two, your hair becomes
beautifully dark, thick and glossy. Adv.

business, sees constantly in the back
ground the Philippine islands, with
amateurs molding the scheme of
things. But the Philippine problem
is another story" to quote Kipling,
the masterful poet-journalist, who
came out OF India, trailing jingoism.
Let's stick to the Indian text.
Beginning as a purely commercial
enterprise, with no other object than
to make money for British traders,
often more aggressive than scrupu-
lous, the government Of India by the
British has as its chief concern the
making of men. That's a big job any
where, but 1t is particularly large
when the territory is a continent, as
is India, and not a single country, and
the inhabitants are one-fifth of the en-
tire human race.
The problem is not lessened by the
ignorance, poverty and superstition OF
the alien and diverse peoples who
constitute the inhabitants The good
fruits OF British rule are many, but
they cannot be seen from the car
window nor their importance gagged
by the tourist fitting from hotel to
curio shop.
Not Governed by Bayonets.
British rule in India is not military
rule. Bayonets may establish, but
they cannot maintain government
British rule in India is government BY
the civil power. Less than 75.00'
white soldiers are stationed in thii
empire of more than 300.000,000 peo
pie. The United States have larger

Perhaps the monumental work of
the British in India in dealing with ag-
riculture has been its development of

yard, which serves as the approach to
the Great temple, is nearly $50 yards
long and some 100 yards wide, dimen-
sions only surpassed by those of the
great temples of Karnak in Upper
Egypt. Beneath this colossal platform
are vaulted tunnel-like passages, and it
was from these passages until quite
recently that the temple area was
reached.
Entrance was gained to the Great
temple from the east by wide flight
of steps. When the Arabs conquered
the city they removed this staircase
and also the row OF columns that
fianked either side. With this mate
rial they constructed wall as means
Of defense. The Germans have torn
away this wall and built a narrow
staircase where the broad one used to
be, so that today one enters again as
deed, every visitor to the ruins today
owes the Germans debt OF gratitude,
for in removing the Arabic work they
have made the original plan of these
early builders more easily compre-
hensible. Tons of debris have been re-
moved and weak parts in the ruins
strengthened. Proceeding inwards, one
passes through triple entrance into
the Great court. or Court of the Altar.
Some idea of its immense size may be
gagged when il is stated that 1t meas
ures 440 feet in length and is about
$40 feet in width The central portal
as well as one of the small side portals
have fallen in, and the pieces which
formed the arches have been collected
and laid together on the ground below
the places where they originally stood.
In the court here large altar was dis
covered. On each side of II is pool
or basin for additions In connection
with the religious rites here observed.
All that is left of the Great temple
itself are six gigantic columns, still
standing. capped with Corinthian capi-

Some Surface Evils.

The evils of British rule are on the
surface: exploitation, absentee gov
eminent. the hill station where off,
cialdom retires from contact with the
people, a press law which Surendra-
nath Banerjee, the uncrowned king
of Bengal says is possible only be-
cause of the good character Of the
administrators; too much whislty-and-
soda and too little helpful, personal
intercourse with the natives; a certain
imperiousness which apparently looks
down on all things non-British. 1t is
chasing fiyspecks to discuss these and
other smaller evils. The american
looks with disapproval, but ha remem-
bers his own treatment OF The negro
in the South and the false Impressions
given of that treatment IN Uncle
Toms Cabin and other works of fic-
ton, and he forbears criticism.
With all its defects and its evils, of
maladministration, OF greed and jim
goism, the work Of the British in In
dia-to quote a sentence from Lord
Curzon, ablest of modern yiceroys, is
righteous and will endure" The un.
rest, annoying, even agonizing at
times, is but the growing pains"
which presage a freer, greater India
in tomorrow's world.

STAINED COTTON
WORKING INJURY
AFFECTING SALE
MIXING WITH BETTER GRADE
INJURIES PRICES, DECLARES
THE WAREHOUSEMEN.

Il have full crop of young cotton
already up and ready to be chopped
to stand" declared former Commits
sioner of Agriculture T. G. Hudson to-
day, while discussing the general sit
uation and the generally bum price.
Col. Hudson laughed good naturally az
he told of his crop of October cotton,
which, he declares, is looking fit and
fine since the rains of the past week
gave it renewed growth.
The truth is that on Col. Hudson's
farm in Sumter great deal of cotton
has been beaten out by recent hea"y
rains and before the negro cotton PICK
ers could get around and pick up the
loose cotton, much of it had been
beaten into the soft ground, where the
seed sprouted.
And on this line, Col Hudson sounds
a warning to farmers regarding sthbs
storm cotton.
1t is we'll worth picking up and mar
keting, he says. but discretion must
be exercised therein The storm cot
ton is badly stained and in no event
should it be mixed with white cotton.
Keep the stained cotton to itself and
let it go as q stained bale at whatever
price it will bring. Mixing it with
clean, white cotton only serves to
make the entire bale of low grade.
AS SO much storm cotton has teen
mixed with better grades already, the
consequence is that very little good
middling cotton, for which there is de-
mand, can be found in the Americas
market for sale. There is plenty low
grade cotton here, but it is worth lit
tie more than TO 6 - cents at best,
although there is still little demand
for it at any price.

Triton, Ca, Oct. 5.-Tift county
will be represented on Cotton Day.
at the State Federation of Women S
Clubs in Albany, Oct. 1929, by what
will be the first Georgia homespun
dress that has been made in this state,
or at least in the southern part of the
state, since the first decade after the
War Between the States.
The dress is an original idea of Mrs.
n. Peterson, vice-Wesident of the
State Federation. After some difficult
ty, she found that Mrs. George Walk
er, an aged lady living two miles north
of here, was willing to weave the cloth
if a loom could be found. After {
while a loom was found and Supt
Ship, of the Triton Cotton Mills, spun
the thread and made the warp. Mrs
Walker is now weaving the cloth.
Everything is a product of Tiff
county, and while we have several dye
woods, affording a variety of colors
no dyes are used in the cloth, which is
rich cream color. AS soon as it is
finished, Mrs. Peterson will embroider
| it, and then cut and make the dress
with her own hands.
Mrs. Peterson is also arranging to
carry an unique and original exhibit
for the cotton display. This exhibit
will be made by the Second District
Agricultural school. The boys are
building a house of Georgia pine, and
the girls are going to furnish I

erything down to the smallest details,

girls to the domestic science depart

LOS ANGELES, Oct. 5.-Forrest R.

Miss Adell Bliss, who illustrates for

day night on West Seventh street

Finally, the newspaper accidentally
drifted down and folded over the purse
AS the man left Miss Bliss noticed
that her purse seemed to be straying
and drew it to her, at the same time
scanning the man. 1t was several

found that a 500 gold piece and some
paper money we're. missing.

The detectives wished to have a de-

went into details, but the thing was
rather unsatisfactory until Miss Bliss
said: well, I can sketch him for
