HAVE DARK HAIR
 AND LOOK YOUNG
Nobody Can Tell Wheb You Darken Gray, Faded Hair With Sage
 Tea

Grandmother kept her hair beauti- fully darkened, glossy and attractive with a brew of Sage Tea and Sulphur Whenever her hair took on that dull, faded or streaked apearance, this simple mixture was applied with wonderful effect. By asking at any drug store for "Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Compound" you will get a large bottle of this old time recipe improved by the addition of other in gredients, all ready to use, for about 30 cents. This simple mixture can be depended upon to restore natural color and beauty to the hair.
 A well known downtown druggist says everybody uses Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Compound now because it darkens so naturally and evenly that nobody can tell it has been ap- plied-it's so easy to use, too. Yoa simply dampen a comb or soft brush and draw it through yolr hair, taking one strand at time. By morning the gray hair disappears after another application or two, it is re- stored to it's natural color and looks glossy, soft and beautiful. This pre- .paration is a delightful toilet requi- site. It is not intended for the cure, mitigation or prevention of disease.

BANK DEPOSITS
 IN PINE BLUFF
 S9,I6l,283.08 Never Before Have Six Lo- cal Institutions Carried Greater Deposits.
TOTAL AMOUNT OF
 LOANS IS S7,643,618
Surplus and Undivided Profits of SG77,. l7G.54 Indicate the Steadily ln- creasing Value of Local
 Bank Stocks.

Bank deposits in .iPne Bluff, to start the year 1917, aggregated some thing like $10,000OO0, {, figure higher than ever before in the history of the city. and clear indication of the very great prosperity which is being enjoyed by this city and section.
 Statements issued by local national banks. in response to calls by the federal comptroller of currency to the national banks, and by the local state banks to q over the same period, show that deposits aggregated $9,161, ,2S3,0S at the close of business on December 27, 1916.
 Capital stock of the six local banks aggregates $975,000. surplus and un- divided profits aggregate $677,17654. the total of investment, surplus and undistributed profits being $1,652,- 176.54.
 The local banks hold demand loans on cotton aggregating $3,611 ,421.S4 Other loans and discounts total $4,- 032. .19624. making the gross total of leans and discounts reach the figure of $7,643,61S.07.
 Deducting the loans from the ag- gregate of the deposits, capital, sur pulls and profits, it is found that the banks still have a margin of $3.169,- S41.55. AS a matter of fact, however, the statements show the banks have on hand. in cash in vaults. with other banks or otherwise, 2 total of $2, ,733, 11272.
 Banking houses, furniture and fix lures owned by the banks have an az gregate value, and this is far below it's actual value if placed on the mar ket of $327,710.71. while other real estate owned by the banks is valued at s92,716.31. Bonds. stod'1s and war rants, stock in federal reserve banks and other such items bring the hold ings up by s462, 793.23 more. The advantages of cooperation can not better be demonstrated, than by q study of these figures. No one indi vidual, except he be one man out oi millions. could invest S975,000 in the safest and most conservative manner to such advantage to himself and his community. as has been done by com binations or companies of men | operating banking institutions, here in Pine Bluff or anywhere else.

United States authorities having de- clared that they can make no case of violating postal or other federal laws against Clinton Saunders, alias C. M. Topp, Jr.. who was arrested by Chief of Police Frank Stewart several days ago at the Simmons National bank, Saunders has been charged With forgery, and has been ordered held to await the action of the grand jury, after he had admitted to Justice of the Peace Gabe Meyer that he had forged another mans name to-. a check.

In one of the letters he found a check for $17.35, and this check he attempted to cash at the Simmons National bank here, after endorsing upon it the name of the payee. Authorities at Clarksdale Miss, and at Shaw, Miss, have asked i local officers to turn the prisoner ov- CT to them. that he may be tried or charges held against him at those places, and Brinkley officers also wan him, on charges of grand larceny ane i beating his hotel bill.

THE CRIES OF LITTLE PEOPLES.
BY CLIO HARPER.

The wailing cries of little peoples, The Beige, the Serb, the Pole, the
 Greek, All crushed and broken till the frag
 mCntS
 Are dyed in Mitteleuropa s reek. " Their wailing cries deep diapason Rolls down the sore-Wet trench of
 hate, To swell the groanings of the mil
 lions
 Whose blood alone would satate. The little peoples are the buffers 'Twixt giant Teuton and the Frank, And heaped in windrows ghast be-
 tween them, Death reaps his harvest, front and
 flank. Now fair Rumania, bleeding, mangled, Lies. battle-scarred, beneath the
 heel Of alien foe. whose hosts are Martian, Whose souls are fed on biting steel. Oh, stricken Antwerp, ase-harried
 Poland,
 Oh. land that heard Queen Sylva
 sing, Oh, war-swept, warbeaten Serbia, What gods decreed thy knells should
 ring? From serried heights of Montenegro Flow crimson floods to Tracian
 plains, While storied Greece is rent asunder, And freshened are her battle stains. Their fire-sides wrecked and wrecked cathedrals,
 Their homes debauched and fields
 O'er-run, Their flags defiled, their spirits shat
 tered
 By Bulgar, Teuton, Turk and Hun. And what offense have they commit
 ted, That jaws of steel should crush
 thein lives? That they should cringe to alien mas
 ters
 While war-mah Mars with Virtue
 strives? The wailing cries of little peoples From desOlated lands ascend, And yelling up in grievous cadence, Demand that God their homes de-
 fend. Little Rock. Ark, Jan. 1, 1917.
