THE LEADED TRIBUNE, FORT VALLEY, GA., THURSDAY, FEBRUARY 5, 1925.
BRIGHT THOUGHTS
Be ashamed of nothing but sin.
Nothing dies but something
Every man Is great Just because
Is a man.
Music In Its highest form seems
pensive memory.
There are many echoes In the
and but few voices.
Life has been Hwfully Injured
It looks only black.
I Circumstances and warm
alter the contents of egg eases.
About the hardest tiling for a man
to do )« to kiss a girl unexpectedly.
Even tbe optimist forgets to- smllp
when the tux collector comes around,
The cup of happiness usually
springs a leuk before It begins to run
over.
Probably T.ot’s wife passed some
other woman and turned to see what
slip had on.
And sometimes alimony seems to
he the capital prize In tiie marriage
lottery.
The man In love loses Ids self pos
session In trying to get possession of
another.
If a man could read his own biog¬
raphy It would surprise him more than
any one else. .
RIVERS CARRY SALT
INTO THE OCEAN
At first It strikes one as strange
that, nlthongh the sea must originally
have heen formed of distilled water—
that Is, congealed watery vapor and
though all the rivers that flow Inlo It,
estimated In amount in the aggregate
to 6,500 cubic miles of water every
year, are fed exclusively by rainfall.
which Is also distilled water. It should
nevertheless he extremely brackish,
very *ai| indeed in (lie tropics and
less salt at the poles.
Yet It Is chiefly the rivers that ac¬
count for the saltness of the sea. It
Is estimated that they carry some¬
thing like 100,000,000 tons of saline
matter Into the ocean every year and,
further, that the ocean holds in sus¬
pension no less than 140,000.1 KIO,000
tons of salt, a sufficient quantity, If
extracted, to cover the dry surface of
the earth to a depth of 400 feet, says
London Til Rits.
It Is believed that 90,000,000 years
have been required for the sea to at¬
tain Its present silliness.
The Only One
tn.vce plays gulf and lie prefers s
solitary round with only the caddie
pr>sent. He had a new boy one day
recently, and played as usual.
"I fancy I play tbe worst game In
t‘.e world.” he confessed In the cuddle.
“Oh, 1 wouldn’t say that, sir,” was
•he consoling reply. “From what the
hoys were saying about another gen¬
tleman who plays here, he must he
worse than you are.”
“AVhat’s his name,” asked the player
hopefully.
And the caddie replied: “Joyce.”
—Pearson’s Magazine.
Keeping Him In
“Confound a cuss that’ll leave his
cistern uncovered so’s another feller
falls In!” yelled Gabe Glggery who at
that moment was in Mr. Johnson's cis¬
tern. “As soon as 1 get out I’ll whip
you on less ground than a two-dollar
bill will cover!”
“Good thing for me. and mebby you.
that you mentioned that fact before I
fished you out.” replied Gap Johnson,
of Rumpus ltidge. "I’ll just let you
stay In there till you don't."
Penalty of Negligence
“Mizzus Tarpy just told me that
I.um Hawkey fell dead a spell ago
while chopping stove wood,” excitedly
cried Mrs. Johnson, upon her return
from a noighborhood call.
“Goodgoddlemlghty !’’ ejaculated Gap
Johnson of Rumpus Ridge. “That pore
feller might have been alive right
now if he had begun breaking his wife
In to do her work when they was first
married.”—Kansas City Star.
Heredity
_ “IIow many are four and five?—
hands up!”
A forest of hands perforated the
air.
Ah, you—little girl In the front
seat."

young daughter of a former telephone
operator, are nl-yun."—Bell Tele

Fair Visitor—Here, my poor man,
are some roses for you. What can I

CAUGHT IN PASSING
!
Who best can suffer, best can do.
When a dentist is burled he fills hi*
,aKt cav lty.
Thoughts are but dreams till their
efforts he tried.
Electricity, though not a bud word,
Is often shocking.
The most difficult thing In life Is
to know yourself.
Charity should begin at home, they
say; so should reform.
Every time a man conceals a fault
he adds to Ids collection.
Don’t have so many chores that you
have no time for contemplation.
fine who doesn’t care much to talk
finds the telephone no temptation.
In doing something for others yon
do not lose their respect by making it
pay.
When doctors disagree they can al¬
ways unite in attributing it to heart
failure,
j Poverty may be a blessing in dis¬
guise to young people, but not to
old ones.
If a tnnn tjilnks a girl is a vision,
some other girl pronounces her a per¬
fect sight.
Why don’t girls employed in match
factories get married sooner than
other girls?
If a man talks unusually loud It.
Isn’t necessary to clear a space for
him to act In.
Those who acquire the millions do
! It for the fun they get in acquiring,
nc>f in s I« , nding.
It Is an outstanding fact that the
man who Is Asked to Indorse a note
Is alwnys good for It.
Backward nations have always had
| to be bossed by forward nations—and
charged a high price for it.
There Is a good deal of sentiment
In "not hurting business.” Business la
everybody’s bread and butter.
How American Fliers
Gained Day on Trip
"A newspaper date line—‘Parania
fdiiru Island, Kuriles. May 17’—lias
done more to make the International
date line ati understandable reality to
j tiilllions of readers than could niuner
oils chapters In school geographies”
i says a bulletin from the Washington
headquarters ),/....... of f »i the * National v ft « « Geo
graphic society.
’Tills unusual date line appeared In
the morning papers of May 17 that
bad gone to press about 4 o’clock In
the morning. The dispatch told of the
arrival the same dav ’ Saturday ’, ’! at
’
,, the morning, , of AmeHcas . ,
loumMiif-uorld a, fliers apparently
seven and a half hours after the
papers were printed.
"But because the fliers lmd hurdled
the date line Immediately after leav¬
ing the last Aleutian island they had
Jumped twenty-four hours into the '
future. Their arrival was really about {
sixteen and one-half hours before tlie
papers went to press. They had be¬
gun to speak a different language
from America—their 11:35 Saturday
was the same as 11:35 Friday in the
United States. I
Study Electric Eel
Attendants at the New York zoo
having been stunned by current from
the electric eel, an investigation has
heen begun of (lie creature’s power
plant. Previous attempts at measuring
the current have failed because the
used sufficiently '
apparatus was not
sensitive to register the sudden and
Intense shocks delivered. These, ac¬
cording to Popular Mechanics Maga¬
zine, are said to he powerful enough
to stun a horse and are described by
keepers who suffered them, ns “sledge¬
hammer” blows that caused black and
blue marks on tiie skin. A German
professor, according to R. L. Dltmars,
curator, has obtained light of dazzling
Intensity by connecting the current to
bulbs, but the flash was over in an In¬
stant, defying attempts to measure It. ,
Plana to Trap Weevil
Hudson Maxim, inventor, recalls I
that the Indians used to scent their
traps w ith the odor of the I female |
heaver. This attracted the males and
large numbers of them were trapped.
The sense of smell which Is extremely
keen in Insects guides them to the
discovery of their mates, he says.
For instance the male silkworm can
detect the female by smell at a dis¬
tance of two miles. He suggests that
a scent, prepared from the bodies of i
female boll weevil moths or perhaps
made synthetically, might be used to |
lure males of the species to traps
or poisons.
Uncle Joe Stands Pat
"Speaking of Mr. Cannon,” writes
E. S„ “would you care to know Uncle
Joe's creed? It is a striking one and
I copy it for you from my scrapbook: i
‘I believe the Almighty organized this
big corporation known as humanity.
Issued all the capital stock and is re¬
sponsible for Its maintenance at par
value; and I'll he hanged if I'll pert
with my holdings.’ ”—Boston Tran
script.
Bees Darken Beacon
Swarms of bees recently swept off¬
shore by the wind in a storm, made
their landing on the huge lamp of the
South-West lighthouse off New Haven,
Conn. So thick were the bees, says
an eyewitness, that they covered the
lens area of the beacon and obscured
the light that guides mariners in Long j
Island sound.

I t FIERY, ITCHY SKIN
1 I: QUICKLY SOOTHED
BY THIS SULPHUR
Mentho-Sulphur, a pleasant cream,
will soothe and heal skin that is irri¬
tated or broken out with eczema; that
is covered with ugly rash or pimples,
or is rough or dry. Nothing subdues
fiery skin eruptions so quickly, says a
noted skin socialist. sulphur preparation
The moment this
is applied, the itching stops and after
two or three applications, the eczema
is gone and the skin is delightfully clear
and smooth. Sulphur is so precious as
a skin remedy because it destroys the
parasites that cause the burning, itch¬
ing or disfigurement. Mentho-Sulphur
alwavs heals eczema right Mentho-Sul¬ up.
A small jar of Rowles
phur may be had at any good drug
store.
LADIES! DARKEN
YOUR GRAY HAIR
Use Grandma’s Sage Tea and
Sulphur Recipe and Nobody
Will Know
The use of Sage and Sulphur for re¬
storing faded, gray hair to its natural
color dates back to grandmother’s beautifully time.
She used it to keep her hair
dark, glossy and attractive Whenever
her hair took on that dull, faded or
streaked appearance, this simple mix
ture was applied with wonderful ef
feet. and
But brewing at home is mussy
out-of-date. Nowadays, by asking at
any drug store fer a bottle of “Wyeth’s will
Sage and Sulphur Compound,” you im¬
get this famous old preparation, other ingre¬
proved by the addition of
dients, which can be depended upon to
restore natural color and beauty to the
hair.
Well-known druggists say it darkens
the hair so naturally and evenly that
nobody can tell it, has been applied
You simply dampen a sponge or soft
brush with it and draw this through
your hair, taking one strand at a time
By morning the gray hair disappear*,
and after another application or two, it
becomes beautifully dark and glossy.
