SAGE TEA AND SULPHUR
DARKENS YOUR GRAY HAIR
Look Years Younger! Try Grandma's
Recipe Of Sage and Sulphur and
Nobody viii Know.

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 we simply ask at any
drug store for "Wyeth's Sage and Sui
phur Hair Remedy" You will get
large bottle for about so cents. Every
body uses this old, famous recipe, be-
cause no one can possibly tell that
you darkened your hair, as it 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 time; by morn
ing the gray hair disappears, and
after another application or two, your
hair becomes beautifully dark, thick
and glossy and you look years younger.

SOCIETY NOTES

Last Saturday night the fami-
ly at the First Methodist Episco-
pal Parsonage were alarmed by
a terrific ringing of the door
bell. The Parson and his wife
being very busy, the girls beat
them to the door. They excit-
edly exclaimed, ooh! here is a
turkey in the housed" When
father and mother appeared,
sure enough there was a fine
Thanksgiving Bird with an en-
velope around it's neck, on open
ing the envelope there was a
check for $500 on salary and
the following names with COM
pliments Of season on paper:
c. o. Shepherd, J. L. Ernest,
Chas. Parrish, w. C. Cade, Bur-
ley George, and F. E. Thompson.
But this was not all, the door
bell rang again, this time there
was some one to be seen, the
first time there was no one, but
the turkey, and it was on the IN
side. The door being opened
there were a number Of the
good people Of Belington with
packages of butter, lard, mince
meat, sausage, flour, etc. After
a very pleasant call for the fami-
ly at least these persons wished
us a pleasant Thanksgiving, stole
out again into the night. These
are some of the Oasis in the
parsonage life.
But the end was not yet, Sun
day there came a dollar bill
from one who did not get into
the party, and Monday, here
came another roll of butter and
fine fat duck from one who did
not know of the party.
To one and all we say, Thank
you.' May the dear Lord bless
you abundantly and give you a
glorious Thanksgiving Day.
A.. M. Crabtree and family.

JOHN BARLEYCoRN, GooD-BYE!

JUN DAlNL111 SOle4N, 0OOD-D =
Have you seen the wet and dry
map of the world? Its white
ness is an eyeopener-even to
those who endeavor to keep in
formed as to prohibition pro-
gress. Do you know that one
thousand million people are liv-
ing today without alcohol That
with the exception of a few sea-
ports the entire continent of
Asia is under prohibition either
by civil or religious law? More
than half of Africa is dry terri
tory, although Christian nations
continue to send in the rum des-
'pite international agreement to
keep it out, which gives any
part of that country the power
to stop the drink traffic at any
time. In Europe the war against
alcohol goes on steadily and VIC
toriously, the great and surpris-
ing triumph of the year being
empire-wide prohibition for
Russia.
In our own country, after
January /, 1916, nearly eighty
per cent Of the area will be dry
territory, and sixty-fve per cent
of the population will be living
under prohibitory law--with
nationwide prohibition an as
sured fact in the near future.
In the words Of the latest pop
ular song, Every nation on the
globe has raised the battle cry,
John Barleycorn, good-bye!'
