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

Hair that loses its colnr and lustre,
or when 1t fades, turns gray, dull and
lifeiess, 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 and men who
value that even col0r, that beautiful
dark shade of hair which is so at
tractive, use only this old-time recipe.
Nowadays we get this famous mix
turs improved by the addition of other
ingredients by asking at any drug
store for q 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
sponge or soft brush with 1t and draw
this through your hair, taking one
small strand at a time. By morning
the gray hair disappears; but what
delights the ladies' with Wyeth's Sage
and Sulphur Compound is that, be-
sides beautifully darkening the hair
after q few applications, 1t also brings
back the gloss and lustre and gives 1t
an appearance of abundance.
S@Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Com
pound Is a delightful toilet requisite
to impart color and a youthful APP
pearance to the hair. It is not in
tended for the cure, mitigation or pre-
Ventton OF disease.

HOW TO FIGHT
SPANISH INFLUENZA
BY DIR. L. ". BOWERS.

Avoid crowds, coughs and towards,
but fear neither germs nor Germans
Keep the system in good order, take
plenty of exercise in the fresh air and
practice cleanliness. Remember a clean
mouth, a clean skim, and clean bowels
are protecting armour against disease.
To keep the liver and bowels regular
and to carry away the poisons within,
ii is best to take vegetable pill every
other day, made up of May-apple, aloes,
ialap, and sugar coated, to be~had at
most drug stores, known as DR.. Pierce's
Pleasant Pellets. If there is sudden
onset of what appears like hard cold,
one should go to bed, wrap warm, take
a hot mustard foot-bath and drink copi-
ously of hot lemonade. Tfpain develops
in head or back, ask the druggist for
Anuric (anti-uric) tablets. These will
flush the bladder and kidneys and carry
off poisonous germs. To control the
pains and aches take one AnuIic tablet
every two hours, with frequent drinks of
lemonade. The pneumonia appears IN
most treacherous way, when the infu-
enza victim is apparently recovering and
anxious to leave his bed. In recovering
from a bad attack of influenza or pneu-
monia the system should be built up
with good herbal tonic, such as DR..
Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery made
without alcohol from the roots and barks
of American forest trees, or his Irontic
(iron tonic) tablets, which can be OBJ
tanned at most drug stores, or send Zoe.
to DR.. Pierce's Invalids' Hotel, Buffalo,
N. Y, for trial package.

SLEEPLESSNESS CORRECTED
BY INTERNAL BATHS.

Mr.. J. B. BarroWs writes DR.. Chas
A. Tyrrell, of New York, as follows.
Il am stull usnig the j. B. L. Cas-
cade' once a week, and find it most
efficient for keeping me in fine con
dition. 1t acts as a sedative for tired
nerves and has been a great help for
sleeplessness. I have frequ 51tly
arisen from the bed and used it in the
middle of the Light with satisfactory
results"
The reason for this remarkable re
suit is because the functions cannot
work properly when there is accumu
lation of waste In the lower intestine.
The 81. B. l.. Cascade" by the
simple process of properly applying
warm water, eliminates all this waste
and causes the functions to work
smoothly and properly.
Over a half million intelligent Am
orleans are now using the Cascade
with similar results
1t is the invention of Chas A Tyr
rell, M. D., of New York, a noted
specialist on internal bathing.
It will be shown and explained to
you by Hooks Pharmacy, Americas,
Ga, who will be glad to give you an
interesting booklet, by DR.. TyrrelI,
called why Man Today Is Only 500
Efficient. This booklet is free upon
request. Ask for it today while you
think of It.

MASTERING OUT
PLANS TOLD BY
SENATOR SMITH

WASHINGTON November Sen
ator Hoke Smith, in statement is
seed here, outlines some of the gov
elnment's plans for rehabilitation OF
the army, which will be effected as
rapidly as possible The statement,
which is of vital interest to every
father and mother who has son in
the service, and to every other rela>
tive or friend of soldier, follows:
LAS the result of lengthy confer
ence this morning between the mill
tary committee of the senate and the
secretary of war, / wish to give my
constituents the general outline of
the program for rehabilitation of the
army, as 1 know how many near rela-
tives are deeply concerned.
mo more troops will be sent
abroad, except possibly limited
number of specialists in the sanitary
or engineering service No more new
men, OF course, will be called to
camps. Those in camps on this side
of the water will be demobilized as
rapidly as possible. Each man will
receive a physical examination that a
record may be made of his present
condition, and he will then be given
his discharge and transportation
home. By the end of thirty dayss the
rehabilitation from campss should
be at the rate of thirty thousand a
day
I'm the officers training camps up
on application any candidate will be
given immediate discharge, Those
who desire to complete their course
will be permitted to do so, receiving
their commissions, being at once plac-
ed upon the officers reserve corps
and retired from active service.
An order has already been issued
authorizing the return of soldiers
across the water who are III hospi-
tails so soon as they are fit for travel.
They will not be retained across the
water in hospitals with the view of
rehabilitat,ng them for further ser
vice. The return of troops across
the water other than the regulars
will begin Immediately upon the ex-
eeution of the treaty of peace.
''The conditions may be such that it
cam begin even earlier. Demobiliza-
ton and return will be made as far
as practical in the order of their de-
parture, those who left the United
states first returning first. 1t will
probably be necessary that those In
the engineering service, the stevedore
and similar service will remain
longer than other ORANGES as their
presence will be required abroad for
a while even after other troops re-
turn.
"Of course, there are conditions
which may arise abroad that may
somewhat modify this plan, but 1t is
the present plan. 1 feel also author
ized to say that further limitation OF
supplies to private enterprise by the
war Industries board in all probable
ity will shortly cease

EXIT THE TRAMP.

The Northwest no longer offers care
free Bohemia to the professional hobo.
The tribe is virtually extinct.
q Several factors have combined to place
the tramp in the same category as the Dodo
bird. Armed guards around railroad
yards and bridges have an uncomfortable
habit of making targets out of loiterers
and trespassers in wartime.
Then the state councils Of defense in
various Northwestern states have promul-
gated "work or fight" regulations that
are distressing to those who are tempera-
mentally averse to either Of these occupa-
dons.
Nor is it longer possible to beg a meal
on the strength of being out Of work. The
first person to whom such an appeal was
made would doubtless Immediately offer q
Job.
Transient laborers will always be numer-
GUS while the Great West has one-crop
states and districts, but the men who fol-
low the harvest looking for work must not
be confused with the men who follow it
avoiding work and preying on the toilers,
by begging, stealing or gambling.

tory is forecast. Despite the tremendous
government demand, the cotton maSket is
due for slump and cotton, under the law
of supply and demand, might reasonably
be expected to go down to IS or 20 cents.
The consumers, Of course, would reap the
benefit in cheaper clothing.
But now there is a movement afoot to
fix the price Of cotton products at a figure
which would mean about 27-cent cotton.
To put the case briefly: The grain grow
ers were denied the benefits of the high
prices resulting from world shortage and
properly so, but the cotton growers reaped
these benefits, and now the consumer is to
be denied his inning.
There is no appeal to sectionalism in this,
and none of the spirit of jealousy, but any
thing like discrimination must be scrupul-
ously avoided, and consumers should not
and will not accept cotton price regulation
now without protest.
