Bring Back Color and
LuStre to Hair.

You can turn gray, faded hair beau

night II you'M get a bottle Of "Wyeth'B
Sage and Sulphur Compound" at any
drug store. Millions Of bottles Of this
old famous Sage Tea Recipe, improved
by the addition Of other ingredients,
are sold annually, says a well-known
druggist here, because it darkens the
hair so naturally and evenly that no
one can tell 1t has been applied.
Those whose hair is turning gray or
becoming faded have surprise await
ing them, because after one or two
applications the gray hair vanishes
and your locks become luxuriantly
dark and beautiful.
This is the age Of youth. Gray
haired, unattractive folks aren't
wanted around, so get busy with
Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Compound
tonight and you'll be delighted with
your dark, handsome hair and your
youthful appearance within a few
days.
This preparation is a toilet requisite
and is not intended for the cure. miti-
cation or prevention OF disease.

LOWNDESVILLE e
<\\\\\<<\\<\\\\<

Three more of the Harper's Ferry
tradegy were recovered on Wednes-
day, April, 21, near Cade's Ferry, a
few miles west of Mt. Carmel. The
bodies found were Mrs. Lester
Waters, Miss Alice Meschine and
Mr.. Robert Manning. They were
taken at once to Mt. Carmel, wrap
ped in sheets, placed in handsome
caskets and brought by truck to
Lowndesville that night. The bodies
were badly swollen, with no facial
recognition, but were positively
identified by jewelry on the persons
of the unfortunate victims. Mrs.
Waters wore a monogram ring, Miss
Meschine handsome diamond ring
and Mr.. Manning a watch and belt
with engraving. Mt. Carmel refused
any remuneration for what she had
done, but was glad to have an op-
portunity to. make a material ex-
preston of her sympathy for the
distressed families.
Another instance of the noble
generosity of our sister towns along
the Savannah.
Interment of the three bodies was
made at the same hour in the Pres
byterian cemetery.
Funeral obsequies were conducted
by the resident ministers and Rev.
Martin, of Iva, in the presence OF the
largest number ever assembled in
that place.
Sabbath afternoon, April 25th, the
body of Albert Sutherland was re-
covered near Cherokee Ferry, about
six miles below the scene OF the ac-
cident. The body was badly decom-
posed but was identified by relatives
by slight malformation Of the left
foot and several articles Of clothing
worn by the unfortunate youth. The
remains were inferred in the Presby-
terian cemetery near the graves OF
the five bodies that had been re-
