part OF the spread In prices may
oe accounted for by the increased
freight rates and higher labor costs
as compared with a year ago, while
wages are now tending to decline, the
index OF wage levels for May this
year was higher than for the same
period q year ago. The union yaRe
index for 1sos-ls was 1855; 1890, 1875 ;
in 1891, 2o3.
Some of the increase 10 undoubt.

rents which have been an important
factor In retail lines. lust what
the changes have been In retail costs

by any survey that we have seen.
Some investigations are underway in
this subject, however, which should
shed much light on the price situa.
ton.
The recent advance In the price
OF cotton was reported by the De-
partment of Agriculture as being
from e.S cents per pound on August
l, as the average received by pro-
ducers, to 1913 cents per pound on
October I. This brings the price OF
cotton back to the level Of Novem-
ber 1 a year ago and above the level
OF the year 1915 and hve years
previous to that. The substantial
increase that this improved cotton
price has made in the buying power
Of the South has been largely off,
set, however. by the decline In the
price OF wheat and other products
for the country as . whole. The net
result 10 that agriculture has not
improved its position in several
months, except through the slight
advantage gained from the decline
in goods which the farmer has to
buy.
A few months ago there was con-
siderable discussion As to whether
the best process Of readjustment
will be to bring farm prices up to
the general level. or for other prices
to come down to the agricultural
level. II Is not yet clear which Of
these methods OF rsadjustment will
be followed. The spread between
farm prices and other prices has
shown a tendency to increase rather
than to decrease during the last six
months. Tn sjump in cotton indi-
Gated for q time that agricultural
prices were coming up to the gem
eral level, but q wide movement In
this direction has not mAteriaiised.

FEW FOLKS HAVE
GRAY HAIR NOW
Wen-known local druggist says
everybody Is using old-ims
recipe Of Sage Tea
and Sulphur.

Hair that loses its color and
1ustfe, or when it fades, turns
gray, dull and lifeless, is
caused by a lack of sulphur in
the hair. Grandmother made I'D
a 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
mixture improved by the addi-
ton of other ingredients by ask
ing at any drug store for a bot
tie of 'FWyeth's Sage and Sui
phur Compound" which dark
ems the hair so naturally, so
evenly, that nobody can possibly
tell it has been applied. You
inst dampen a sponge or soft
brush with it and draw this
through your hair, taking one
small strand at a time. BY
morning the gray hair disap-
pears; but what delights the
ladies with Wyeth's Sage and
Sulphur Compound is that, be-
sides beautifully darkening the
hair after a few applications, it
also brings back the gloss and
lustre and gives it an appear
ance of abundance.
Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur
Compound is a delightful toilet
requisite to impart color and
youthful appearance to the hair.
