THE TYRANNY OF TRIPLES
By EDNA LAKE

"Ob, my dear. that Is not worth bother ing about.
 But I think it is, you see. I consider that it is the little things that are the most important. Take care of the trhes, and the big things will take care of them selves--that is my motto, and I think it is a good one"
 Mrs. Cunnington's visitor smiled. She had surprised her hostess in the act of polishing the table in the dining room, and had affirmed that it was quite shiny enough to. satisfy the most particular; only to be told that Sarah, the maid, had already polished it that morning, but had done it so badly that it was not fit to be seen."
 .'I think" said Miss Hughes, after mo- ments pause, "I think that your plan is quite wrong one. I am sure that more than half the worried housewives one meets have reached their state of shat tered nerves from taking too much notice of the trifles-the little things, those things which are really worth whie.'
 There are many of us who think as Mrs. Cunnington thought and there are per- haps not nearly enough who take Miss Hughes attitude toward the trif1ng things of every day life.
 Attention to detail is to a certain point admirable, and also indispensable in ob- taining good results. But, on the othe. hand, we have most of us seen work that has been ruined by too much attention to it. Take, for example, the work of the artist who is a lover of detail. The more we look into his picture the more we find in it to admire. But sometimes. in this

FEW FOLKS HAVE
 GRAY HAIR NOW
Druggist Says Ladies Are Using Recipe of Sage Tea
 and Sulphur

Hair that loses it's color and lustre, or when it fades, turns gray, dull and life less, is caused by lack of sulphur in the hair. Our grandmother made up a mixture of Sage Tea and Sulphur to keep her locks dark and beautiful, and thousands of women andsmen who value that even color, that beautiful dark shade of hair which is so attractive use only this old-time recipe.
 Nowadays we get this famous mixture by asking at any drug store for a 50- cent bottle of ''Wyeths Sage and Sul- phur Compound" which darkens the hair so naturally, so evenly, that nobody can possibly tell it has been applied Besides, it takes off dandruff, stops scalp itching and falling hair. You just dampen a sponge or soft brush with it and draw this through your hair, taking one small strand at a time. By morn ing the gray hair disappears; but what delights the ladies with Wyeths Sage and Sulphur is that, besides beautifully darkening the hair after a few applica- tions, it also brings back the gloss and lustre and gives it an appearance of abundance.

In connection with the study of the legislature which is at present in recess, it is interesting to note that Lieutenant Governor Thomas E. KHby Of ,Anniston, A H. Carmichael of Tuscumbia. speaker of the house, and Henry P. Merritt of Tuskegee, prohibition floor leader of the house and chairman of the probe" com mittee, arc tentative candidates for the office of chief executive.
 Neither of the gentlemen has an- nounced himself a candidate. But there is no denial of the fact that each is con- ducng himself in such manner-and in the hope probably-that when the psy ohological moment arrives the people fin unison will acclaim: 'Ecce homo!'' and proceed forthwith to decorate his brow with wreaths of myrtle leaves.
 Inasmuch as each of the tentative can didates is prohibitionist, it is natural to presume that only one of them will arrive" to the height of an actual can didate. Therefore, the contest in which the three are now engaged-and are rivals-is a contest of elimination. Which of them at the conclusion of two or three years. will be highest in the favor of tho prohibition Talleyrands and Maet- erlinl1s? Which will be the logical man?
 Are Not Rampant"
 The three, as already stated, are pro- hibitionists Neither however, will ad- init that he is rampant" prohibitionist, one of the variety which desires ardently to bite the "anti'' on the leg. As al matter of fact, MT. Kilby was primarily opposed to the passage of a statewide prohibition bill. He thought that it would be the part of wisdom to submit the liquor question for final adjudication to the people. However, when Governor Henderson threw his influence to Sena- tor Oscar Lewis-who desired to name the standing committees of the senate-l Mir. Kilby- -obsessed by the same desire joined hands with the prohibition lobby and accepted the conditions of that lobby. The conditions were that statewide pro- hibition should be put through nolens vplens, and that Senator Jones of Bar bour should be named chairman of the rules committee, formerly considered a post of imrortance
 Of course MT Kilby has repented in many salty, tears-especially in view of the fact that by his own strength he could have won--and it is probable that his political dndiscretion will not result in his lasting discornfitures For he isI

| investigating committee, he is presented l with an opportunity of crowning himself with lasting glory There is also in his path gaping gulch into which there Is constant danger of his tumbling. Should he tumble, he will not be compelled to follow the advice of Woosey Ambition, of it's own accord, will have shrivelled into nothing.
 So fearful is the danger of destruction which turks at his elboy that it has been whispered that MT Kilby and MT. Car michael, both of whom are exofficio members of his recess committee, have a method n their madness of remaining aloof, at a distance, cold and supercil- ious. However this may be, MT. Mer- ritt is pushing his labors faithfully and earnestly, and, in the opinion of certain nrohibitionists, wisely. It is to be hoped that MT. Merritt will outlive the blum ders committed by his commiteee when it endeavored to attach crime to for mer official in that he dictated personal telegrams to a state stenographer, and endeavored to insinuate graft in the pub lcation by the convict bureau of photo- graphs of officials of that bureau.
 Mr. Merritt has fine tolerance for those who differ from him on the ques- tion of prohibition. He is very likable and very natural. As a matter of fact, had he not been thrust forward in 1911
 
 of the prohibition lobby-and had he been permitted simply to vote his convictions rather thar burn his fingers by filching chestnuts from the flames, his dream of footing trumpets and martial footsteps would be less in the nature of a dream, an airy nothing which ticlxles and tan talizes and then, before the eyes, evapo- rates and is gone.
 Brandon May Run
 Of course. all tentative candidates are among those of the predominant faction Naturally however, the candidate of the prohibitionists whether he be Kilby, or Carmichael or Merritt or another, will not be permitted unchallenged and unop- posed to dance in the ecstacy of victory to the Lawrence lute, languorous and alluring It would cause little surprise were Judge w. w. Brandon of Tuscaloosa Of in 1918 he be a local optionisD. toI shy his castor into the ring. He would be q potent factor, interesting and at tractive, and if illogical, eloquent and humorous. And so the veil when lifted presents a diverting field of possibility-which tends to prove that the people need not await the next senatorial campaign for their need of joy

Nothing Like MOdesty

From the Louisville Herald.
 A tourist, travelling in the Rocky moun- tains, was introduced to an old hunter who claims to have killed no fewer than 400 bears.
 Bill" said the introducer, this feller wants to hear some narrer escapes you've had from bears.''
 The old man, rubbing his eyes, looked the stranger over, and said:
 Young man, if there's been any narrer escapes. the bears had 'em."

Carmichael in Conner Legislature

him is distasteful.
 Carmichael in Conner Legislature
 MT. Carmichael has been longer before the public eye than MT. Kilby. He was member of the Conner legislature and served his time in biting and batting the railroads. So excellently did he serve that when Speaker Martin passed away, he was promoted. He made a splendid presiding officer. and Governor Conner, following the conclusion of his term, would have given him, had It been nec- essary, references unsurpassed.
 In 1911 MT. Carmichael was absent. During the recent primaries, however, he submitted his cause to the people of Colbert county. He did not run as a pro- hibitionist. His people knew his position on the question of liquor, but it was despite that position that they supported him. As a matter of fact the liberals gave him their votes because they re- ] garded him as a strong man who could serve them better than another-and without these liberal votes of liberal Col bert, it is considered certain that he would have acquired the nomination only with exceeding great difficulty.
 When MT Carmichael arrived in Mont gomery in January it developed that de- spite his antirailroad proclivities in 1907 he had learned that with the railroads
 
 right and justice. For it was announced that as attorney for the Southern he had accepted employment. Instead, however, of this employment resulting in his po- ltical disadvantage. it threw a glamor about him which appealed especially to the prohibitionists They said to them selves that MT. Carmichael after all, was entirely natural, and proceeded to elect him overwhelmingly to the position of speaker.
 MT. Carmichael is an excellent presid- ing officer-well versed in parliamentary practice, very strong, very fair, very considerate, very faithful Just once did he slip, and that was when he made that unnecessary speech. that superfluous speech, in which he declared that he would have followed his inclination of submitting prohibition to a vote of the people but for his knowledge that the people could not be trusted to withstand the artifce of "corruptng influences"
 Devoid of Spectacular MT. Kilby and MT Carmichael, as seen, are conducting their campaigns in a manner devoid entirely of the spectac- ular. The opposite is true in respect to Mir. Merritt. As hairman of the recess s D
