ANTICIPATING THE
WAR LUXURY TAX
EXPECTING 10 PER CENT. LEVY
ON CLOTHING AND SHOES
BUYERS RUSH TO STORES.

Dawson wonderland men, too
are f1ocking to their respective mo-
dlstes, haberdashers, ready-to-wear
stores and shoe dealers in advance
OF the 10 per cent. luxury tax on
high priced clothing and shoes that
IS scheduled to strike in a few weeks
II congress adopts that section of
Merchants are practically unani-
the war revenue bill.
nous IN reporting a heavy trade in
the higher priced clothing and shoes
and there is nothing they can attrib-
ute it to other than the anticipated
war tax.
The proposed luxury tax on "lux-
ury clothing" as recommended by
Secretary McAdoo, provides for 10
per cent. on WOmen's suits and coats
that sell for 500 or more; 10 per
cent. on mems suits and overcoats
that sell for $25 or more and 10 per
cent on shoes that sell for So or
more.
There is possibility that the tax
ing minimums may be raised because
OF some opposition this phase of the
revenue measure has met. 1t is con-
tended that women's $50 ready-to-
wear and mems $25 suits are not
luxurious" products, while to place
IS shoes in that classification is GER
family a misrepresentation of the
term in the light Of current prices,
it is claimed.
If the clothing luxury tax clause is
adopted. and There Is avaY,v assurance
that it will be retained in some form
or other, even if the minimums are
elevated, retailers must collect the
tax on every garment sold in the
same mann Err that a war tax now is
collected on theater tickets. The
purchaser of $50 suit would be
obliged to pay $50 for the suit and
SIS additional as a luxury tax.

PENSION CHANGES
NOT YET EFFECTIVE
ARE CONSTITUTIONAL AMEND
MENTS AND MUST BE ADOPT
ED BY THE VOTERS.

Ordinary L. C. Hoyl finds that
many people misunderstood the re-
cents bills passed by the legislature
regarding changes in the pension
laws, and he has already had several
applications for pensions under the
new provisions.
The pension law is a constitutional
one and therefore cannot be changed
merely by legislative enactment. Bills
were passed proposing amendments
to the constitution, and these will be
voted on at the November election.
If they are adopted the legislature
next June will make the necessary
change in the constitution and then
the new pension laws will be opera
tive.
At present any veteran worth fif-
teen hundred dollars or more cannot
draw pension. There are a number
of veterans in Terrell county who
will be affected by this law.
Under the present law the widow
of veteran who married after 1870
is prohibited from drawing a pension
for her dead husband The new
amendment changes the marriage
time to 1881, and if this is ratified
considerable number of those who
married between 1870 and 1881 will
be entitled to draw pensions.
However, circular just issued by
the pension commissioner, j. w.
Lindsey, calls attention to the fact
that these changes must be ratified
by the people in November and then
enacted by the legislature before
they are operative, and so far there
is no change in the actual laws gov
erning pensions in Georgia.

DARKEN GRAY HAIR,
LOOK YOUNG, PRETTY
Sage Tea and Sulphur Darkens
So Naturally that No
body can tell.

Hair that loses it's color and lustre,
or when it fades, turns gray, dull and
lifeless, is caused by lack of sulphur
in the hair. Our grandmother made
up mixture of Sage Tea and Sulphur
to keep her locks dark and beautiful,
and thousands Of women and men who
value that even color, that beautiful
dark shade of hair which is so at
tractive, use only this old-time recipe.
Nowadays we get this famous mix
ture improved by the addition of other
ingredients by asking at any drug
store for a bottle of "Wyeth's Sage
and Sulphur Compound" which dark
ems the hair so naturally, so evenly,
that nobody can possibly tell it has
been applied. You just dampen a
sponge or soft brush with it and draw
this through your hair, taking one
small strand at time. BY morning
the gray hair disappears; but what
delights the ladies with Wyetn's Sage
and Sulphur Compound is that, be-
sides beautifully darkening the hair
after few applications, it also brings
back the gloss and lustre and gives it
an appearance of abundance.
Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Com
pound is delightful toilet requisite
to impart color and a youthful ap-
pearance to the hair. 1t is not in
tended for the cure, mitigation or pre-
vention Of disease.

FEED OUT YOUR HOGS SIX
WEEKS EARLIER.

In every lot of hogs on feed two
or three weeks quickly and actually
eat less than others. If all would fat
ten like these, the entire drove would
be ready for the market six weeks
earlier and to save six weeks feed is
an item that you fully understand.
The hog that fattens easily must
be in prime physical condition. The
B. A. Thomas Hog Powder is a con-
ditioner for hogs. 1t keeps their sys-
tenn clean and healthy and enables
them to fatten quickly without fall
ing a prey to the usual diseases of
hogs. The B. A. Thomas Hog Pow
der is not stock food. It's straight
medicine and we took the agency be-
cause it enables you to feed out your
hogs much earlier. WALL BROTH

SPROUTINC
IN The GROUND
THE SCARCITY OF LABOR WITH
WHICH TO GATHER THE CROP -
PORTENDS GREAT WASTE.

Spanish pinders are now ripe and
gathering them is in order in many
sections of the county. Already a
considerable amount of them have
been gathered in this section. This
variety, as soon as they get ripe,
must be gathered or they will sprout
and be lost, as they are what is known
as a two-crop plant.
The present rainy season, there
fore, makes the danger of these PIN
ders sprouting very great, and from
this date forward there will be
rush to get the crop gathered and
saved. Representative farmers from
some sections of the county declare
however, that they do not see how
they can save their crops, as the la
Dor for this purpose is not available.
This makes a serious situation. 1t
is something that is of vital import
ance to every line of business. Should
there be much of loss in this crop
through failure to gather them it will
seriously affect business channels.
In addition to this situation many
farmers say that should the crop re-
main ungathered there are not
enough hogs in some localities to save
the pinders by turning the hogs into
the fields, therefore it will not be
possible to save them in this manner
There has been such a tremendous
demand for hogs that they have been
sold rapidly and the number there
fore reduced in the county in the
proportion that the acreage in pinders
has been increased.

DRCHANCEL ARCTIC
CITY OF MYSTERY
r,,r WHITE CITY OF NORTHERN
RUSSIA is NOW A CENTER
OF REAL ACTION.

Archangel, the "White City, of
northern Russia, is once more the
oorter of interest because of the
,ridespread instruction against the
boIsbevik government in northern
possia with its headquarters in Arch
angel the withdrawal of the soviet
Atroops and the conference between
american Ambassador Francis and al
led representatives to be held in
Archangel, at which, it is said, the
ambassadors will decide upon their
future plans" Archangel has been
breathing place of mysterious ru-
mors during the war, but at last it
appears that the city near the Arctic
zone may become a center of action
that NAV result in the regeneration
of Russia. 49,.
It was to Archangel that Lord
Kitchener was going on an errand of
mystery when he went down to death
off the Orkney islands. 1t was from
Archangel that that ghostly army of
100000 Russians was supposed to
have embarked upon that mythical
expedition through England and
across the channel to the front in
France early in the war.
Largest City in the Arctic.
Archangel was the seat of the gov
eminent of northern Russia in the
old regime. 1t is on the right bank
of the Dvina river, and is the largest
and most important city in the world
situated close to the Arctic circle
It is an ancient seaport having been
established in 1858, and at one time
was the home Of Peter the Great.
Prior to the war its 10000 people
we're enjoying an awakening of COM
mercial development. 1t is connected
by rail with Moscow, and has another
railroad leading to the Siberian grain
fields. through the Ural mountains,
via Perm and Viatka. Before the
blight of war paralyzed the port it
had lively trade with England, Hol-
land and Germany.
Archangel is city of extremes. It's
shortest day is three hours and ifs
longest 81. During three months Of
the year it does not see the sun and
during three months Of the summer
the city seldom loses sight of it. From
its environment, as we'll as the color
of its houses, Archangel has acquir-
ed the name of "White City" All its
chief buildings glare with white paint.
Even the window blinds arc white.

WHY Do ALL DOCTORS
PRESCRIBE COLONEL?

Of all the medicines in the world
doctors prescribe calomel most often
and depend upon it most universally.
There must be good and sufficient
reason-what is it?
If you viii study the doctors books
you will find that the medical au-
thorities prescribe ,calomel for almost
every disease. The reason is that cal
omel is the greatest and only thor
ouga system purifier. 1t makes the
liver active. drives out the poisons
from the stomach, bowels and kid
neys and thereby purities the blood.
Calomel puts the entire system in the
most favo rable condition for nature
to exercise her recuperative power.
Your doctor will tell you that drugs
merely assist nature. Thai is why he
prescribes caloNel so often. ,
The new kind of calomel. CALI ~
"Calotabs," is relined and purified
from all of the nauseating and dan.
gerous qualities of the old style cal
omel and is rapidly taking its place,
for it is more effective than the old
style calomel as a liver-cleanser and
system-purifier. One Calotab at bed
time, with a swallow of water-that's
all. No nausea, nor the slightest I'M
pleasantness. Next morning youi
awake feeling fine-with hearty ap-
petite for breakfast. Eat what you
please-fruits, acids or anything. No |
restrictions of habit or diet.
Calotabs are sold only in original,
sealed packages, price thirty-fve
cents. Recommended and guaranteed
by druggists everywhere. Your mon
ey back if you are not delighted

'The list Of January (1862) has
found me In quite as poor plight as
The rest of the Americans. Not a
