THE INEVITABLE EBB

parently determined to sweep
you of your feet and carry you down
to the waiting sea or when the storm

scure your bright, trustworthy guiding
star. summon all your courage and
hasten to reach the nearest friendly

A man naturally thinks 1t will go
hard with him If the tide turns and
sets against him.
II long accustomed to good fortune,
fair winds and sunny weather, a
sudden burst of opposition at its first
manifestation of energy appals him.
For years he has been making rapid
progress, avoiding the reefs upon
which many of his intimates have
been wrecked.
When they sank beneath the growl-
Ing waters he smiled. complacencly
land congratulated himself on his SUI
perior skill.
His craft was seaworthy, his vision
sclear and his hand unerringly sure.
But now, as the ebb froths In anger,
The realizes that his boasted clever
ness was largely a matter Of co1di-
tion with which his ability had MOTH
ing to do.
He has fallen back SO long on the
thought that he was superman, pos
sessed of extraordinary prowess; the
change alarms him.

Something to Think About
By F. A. DALKER

The Inevitable ebb fills his soul
with inexpressible terror.
Though he shuts his mouth hard
and says nothing to his suspecting
wife, he cannot quell the sickening
fear.
Danger turks In the waves and in
the wind-in the very breath Of idle
gossip.
The shoals are marked by fretting
foam leaping high In the air, but the
night is dark. His nerve is undone.
His once keen perception falls him.
And yet, If he is a true man. or
man in the making, this is the one
time in his life when he win show
his mettle, grip the wheel with a
firmer hold, bend his back and reso-
lutely face the snarling gale painting
In its effort to hurl his ship upon the
rocks.
In every life there is a shipwreck
somewhere buried In the sands Of
unforgotten years.
1t tells the tale of day that Is
done, Of fond hopes, that were swept
to sea and sucked under the waters
Of the inevitable ebb, from which
no man can always steer clear, but
against which every brave man will
battle until he makes port.

THE FRIENDLY PATH
BY WALTER /. ROBINSON.

MONT be afraid to laugh.
~ A hearty laugh Is as good
as medicine. It aids digestion.
1t shoves cares aside and brings
happiness to those who are sad.
Thackeray declared that "a
good laugh is sunshine In the
house,"
The world may be wild over
jazzing; it may think too much
about pleasure and show. But
it is sorely in need of more
whole-hearted laughter. When
people really laugh out loud,
!. their glec relaxes their nerves.
They can feel the exhilarating
Jingle clear down to their toes.
A man needs rest from every
day cares. He needs to forget
temporarily vexations and sor-
rows which burden his mind. He
gets partial rest when asleep;
but after sleeping he sometimes
awakes more tired In mind and
body than when he lay down, be-
cause mischievous troubles
usually imEgined-have kept
creeping through his mind.
But when man laughs from
pure Joy or because he sees
something or hears something
which actually appeals to his
sense Of humor, he gives his
mind a more complete rest than
at any other time during day or
night.
1t pays In happiness; 1t pays
in everyday accomplishments to
see the sunny side Of life.
The long-faced, dreamy mortal
seldom has many friends. He
finds more troubles than he
actually has and exaggerates
those which are real.
In our pathways Of work and
our pathways Of rest we should
seek real causes for mirth.

RAISED 1870 CARS PEACHES
Output Is Only About 70 Per Cent ol
 Normal Crop.

Little Rock. Nov. 12.-Final repor $
 show that the output of. peaches il,
 Arkansas, as nearly as can be comput- , ed, totalled 1870 cars, according to tabulation made by. the Arkansas Farm and Marketing bulletin just sisued for this month It is estimated thet a full crop for the state would have been in the neighborhood of 2,5OO cars. This years crop, the bulletin states, is therefore regarded as about 70 per cent of a crop.
 It is also estimated that the straw
 berry crop brought approximately $2,- 100000. Nearly 62 per cent of the crop moved straight north; about 22 per cent moved west and northwest; 1; l12 per cent east and northeast and only four per cent south and south lwest.
 The oulooks for next year is pro- |blematical for strawberries, it is re- ported. Acreage is reported as having increased approximately 15 per cent this year, but injuries to the bearing capacity of the plant beds throughout the state due to the drought are also estimated. It is considered unlikely that the crop next year will exceed the crop this year.
 The total shipment of strawberries is given as 1906 cars.
 The state this year harvested abou; 7,6O0 acres of cantaloupes. Shipments were not quite two-thirds of those ot last year
 The total shipment is given as 7O6 cars. Prices were reported as low. About 55 per cent of the crop was shipped in flat crates and 35 to 40 per cent in standard crates. The re- mainder was peddled by growers.

| TURN HAIR DARK l ,'.'. WITH SAGE: TEAL | ,i1e1 :. eat .,ii fs \ 4f M fxed Mfth Sulphur MID arkens,
 So Naturally Nobody tf&Ga}.t Can Teil,: G.1 .@.

The old-time mixture of Sage Tea and Sulphur for darkening gray streaked and faded hair is grandmotl- CTS recipe, and folks are again using it to keep their hair a good, even color, which is quite sensible, as we are liv- ing in an age when youthful appear ance is of the greatest advantage.
 Nowadays, though, we don't have the troublesome task of gathering the sage and the mussy mixing at home. All drug stores sell the ready-to-use prod uct, improved by the addition of other ingredients, called "Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Compound" It is very popu- lar because nobody can discover it has been applied. Simply moisten your comb or a 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 Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Compound, is that, besides beautifully darkening the hair after few applica- tions, it also produces that soft lustre and appearance of abundance which is so attractive.
