EASY TO DARKEN
YOUR GRAY HAIR
You Can Bring Back Color and
Lustre With Sage Tea
and Sulphur
When you tlarkrn your hair with
Sapc Tea and Sulphur, no one can tell,
because it’s done so naturally, so even
ly. Preparing this mixture, though, at
home is mussy and troublesome. At
little cost you can buy at any drug
store the ready-to-usc preparation, im
proved by the addition of other ingre
dients called "Wyeth’s Sage and Sul
phur Compound.” You just dampen
a sponge or soft brush with it and draw
this through your hair, taking one small
strand at a time, By morning all gray
hair disappears, and, after another ap
plication or two, your hair becomes
beautifully darkened, glossy and lux
uriant.
Gray, faded hair, though no disgrace,
is a sign of old age, and as we all de
sire a youthful and attractive appear
ance, get busy at once with Wyeth's
Sage and Sulphur Compound and look
years younger.
A MAN OF INTEGRITY
A physician who roaches out to
bonofit humanity loaves a record be
hind him that is worth while. Such a
man was Ur. It. V. Pierce, founder of

ing and honored citizen, known for his
honosty and cxeeutivo ability, liis

his wonderful herbal remedy, Doctor
I’ierco’s Favor I to Prescription, tho
woman’s tonic which has had tbo
greatest number of supporters for tho
past fifty yoars. It. Is just tlio herbal
tonic required if a woman Is homo
down by pain and sufferings at regular
or Irregular Intervals, by nervousness
or dizzy spells, hoadacho or backacho,
IFavorito Proscription can now bo had
in tablet form as well as liquid at most

The Free Press is ever n good and
welcome and a gladly received visitor
la the homes of the good people ol ( nr-
veil and adjacent counties and to tho
homes of the old Carrollitos, who may,
now’ live far away; for it tolls of the
people, who live here, or have lived
here and nre now among the deed. tVi
ilke to hear about the people and the
places wo have known anil loved and
that is ono reason that the paper is
gladly thus received.
Tho splendid letter from East Point
in last week’s issue is quite interesting
and instructive, as it is by a good and
intelligent person who used to be one
of us, and who did lier share in making
Carroll the good placo it i3. Wo hope
to hour from her often, as she is not,
only a good writer, but lives on tho
same street that a very dear friend and
relative of ours also lives on.
We had quite a stoim of wind and
min hero last Tuesday, late in tbo af
ternoon. It did no harm here, that we
know oi, hut in many places over the
state it was quito Severn, wo hoar.
Mrs. Morrow did come, and perhaps
will stay «, while at her sou’s, who livef
here.
We heard the doves last week and
that is a good omen that spring is near
—‘ ‘ oven at the door. ’ ’
Our good old friend and preacher,
Kov. John B. Earnest, preached at New
Hope last Sunday and Saturday before,
wc bear. Ho is a good preacher and
a good man and wo are glad to hour
that ho is to preach at Now Hope this
year. That is a good church and nomo
of our l ost people have membership
there. Go out and revive it again. In
its burying ground sloop good friends of
ours. Wo, too, shall soon slumber in
that sacred ground. Do not lot that
church ever die,
But live on ’till timc’i: no more,
And wc no longer be
On earth, hut on tlio other shore,
Both you and J. W. B. ;
A good number of our people are at
tending Judge Hood’s court, not from
choice, but bocuuso tho fow that would
tako advnntag of these Hoover times,
push them at very opportunity that
they may get the littlo property they
still may have for nearly nothing, and
that compols tlio unwilling attendants
to go to court. All our people,
general rule, speak well of Judgo Hood,
raid all who lovo law and its enforce
ment say “ho is tho right man in the
Tight place.’’ Wo need officers like
him in all places that cannot, bo bribed
or bought.

It sums as if a greater effort is being
made now than ever boforo to induce
the farmers of tho country to undertake
to raise an enormous cotton crop than
over before. It seems ns if the fertili
zer manufacturers, the speculators, the
mill men and the poison manufacturers,
and almost everybody else, except the
man who actually does tho work, have
combined and are telling tho farmers
how much fertilizer and poison to uso
how to cultivate and prepare their lnnd
to make this big crop. The numerous
newspapers that come to our mail box
are filled with this propaganda and we
have read this stuff, m-ucli of it written
by men who nevor grew a boll of cot
ton in their lives, until we havo be
come sick of it. We believe if there
ever was a time to play safe, now is tho
time, for we believe that many farmers
will do everything in their power to
grow a big cotton crop, nnd some may
succeed, but many will fail. Oust a
this time we think of those who de
ted their time and attention to cc9
last year and who made scarcely s
eotton and practically no corn and feed
crops, and as a consequence had to go
to the cities in search of work. Play
safe, at least this is the belief of, yours
truly, H. C. K.

Have You Ever Noticed the
Collar Your Banker Wears?
If an inspection of collars worn by bankers could
be conducted today it would, conservatively, show
90 per cent of them starched—not because bankers
are any more fixy than other folks, but because they
recognize the collar’s business value.
In many organizations, in fact, it is a standing rule
that every man shall wear a starched collar and
laundered linen. The laundered shirt and starched
collar have become the universally accepted marks
not only of good breeding, but of GOOD BUSINESS.
Men’s wear magazines report the increasing current
vogue of the starheed collar.
Washed by the means of the modern laundry, the
ordinary collar can be washed twenty to forty times
before it begins to show wear. We do not guess at
a formular, exact rules and selected solutions too
lengthy to give here, are used in our modern laundry.,
People who realize the value of presentability in
dress can secure same by sending their linen to us.
Insure yourself this serviec and send your laundry
