IF HAIR IS TURNING
GRAY, USE SAGE TEA
Don't Look Old Try Grandmother's
Recipe 20 Darker and 5eautify
Gray, Faded, LifeIess Hair.

Grandmother kept her hair beauti-
fully darkened, glossy and abundant
with a brew of Sage Tea and Sulphur.
Whenever her hair fell out or took on
that dull, faded or streaked appear
ance. this simple mixture was applied
with wonderful effect. BY asking at
any drug store for "Wyeth's Sage and
Sulphur Hair Remedy" you will get
large bottle of this old-time recipe,
ready to use, for about so cents. This
simple mixture can be depended upon
to restore natural color and beauty
to the hair and is splendid for dan
druff, dry, itchy scalp and falling hair.
A well-known druggist says every
body uses Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur,
because it darkens so naturally and
evenly that nobody can tell it has been
applied-it's so easy to use, too. You
simply dampen comb or soft brush
and draw 1t through your hair, taking
one strand at a time. BY morning
the gray hair disappears; after an
other application or two, it is re-
stored to its natural color and looks
glossy, soft and abundant. Adv.

Nashville.
When the legislature reconvened
Senator Ashcroft of Shelby. chairman
of finance committee, introduced the
revenue bill, which carried increased
revenues to the state amounting to
nearly 100000.
Under new provisions, the great
bulk of this will come from court liti-
cation. Every defendant in court
must pay higher fees than he has been
paying heretofore by about $3.50 each.
This will affect Shelby more than any
other county, because of the amount
of litigation.
The state tax commission is ready
with its report. A surprise will come,
it is said, in that recommendation
will be made whereby the great bulk
of intangible property will be brought
out of hiding in the form of stocks,

SOME SUGGESTIVE FIGURES.

Here are some interesting facts that
ought to furnish suggestion or two
for corn growers. In no ten year pc
riod in the history of corn growing in
the United States has the average yield
per acre exceeded twenty-eight BUSH
els. while no state has averaged for
any year over fifty-four bushels per
acre In contrast TO these figures Is
the significant fact that in most every
section of the country that pretends
to raise corn yields of more than a
hundred bushels per acre have been Sc
cured. With such low average yields,
it is humiliating TO contemplate what
the production per acre must be Of
those growers who bring the average
for the country down to so low Il level.
