TURN HAIR DARK
WITH SAGE TEA
If Mixed with Sulphur It Darkens
So Naturally Nobody
Can Tell
The old-time mixture of Sage Teai
and Sulphur for darkening gray,
streaked and faded hair is grandmoth
er’s recipe, and folks arc again using it
to keep their hair a good, even color,
which is quite sensible, as we are liv
ing in an age when a youthful appear
ance is of the greatest advantage.
Nowadays, though, we don’t have the
IFtrablesome 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 a 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 a few applica
tions, it also produces that soft lustre
and appearance ol abundance, which is
so attractive.
Drink Water If
Kidneys Bother
Take a Tablespoonful of Salts if
Back Pains or Bladder is
Irritated
Flush your kidneys by drinking a quart
of water each day, also take salts occa
sionally, says a noted authority, who
tells us that too much rich food forms
acids which almost paralyze the kidneys
in their efforts to expel it from .the
blood. They become sluggish and
weaken; then you may suffer with a
dull misery in the kidney region, sharp
pains in the back or sick headache, dizzi
ness, your stomach sours, tongue is
coated, and when the weather is bad
you have rheumatic twinges. The urine
gets cloudy, full of sediment, the chan
nels often get sore and irritated, oblig
ing you to seek relief two or three
times during the night.
To help neutralize these irritating
acids; to help cleanse the kidneys and
flush off the body’s urinous waste, get
four ounces of Jad Salts from any phar
macy here. Take a tablespoonful in a
? lass of water before breakfast for a
ew days, and your kidneys may then
act fine. This famous salts is made from
the acid of grapes and lemon Juice, com
bined With lithia, and has been used for
years to help flush and stimulate slug
gish kidneys; also lo neutralize the acids
in the system so they no longer irritate,
thus often relieving bladder weakness.
Jad Salts is inexpensive; can not in
jure ami makes a delightful efferves
cent litliia- water drink. By all means
have your physician examine your kid
neys at least twice a year.

Those of you who hnvo visited the
Southerns!urn Fair which is hold every

the surprise of their lives this year

The canal which feeds the lake in
the rente! of the rare track has been
dammed up and a huge lngoon formed,
around this lngoon is a cinder path. A
schstnnti.nl railing Inis been erected to
prevent children falling in the water.
An enormous foot bridge 25 feet in
width and ample to support five ton
trucks has been erected across this body
of water in order I hat visitors might
easilv pass from one side to the other.
Tn the center of the lagoon is a foun
tain surrounded liv moss-covered rocks.
During the day a four-inch stream of
water will be thrown many feel in the
air, of coarse propelled by pump operu-

a spray nozzle is to be attached and tin)

water over the festoon of colored lines.
A minntnrc D. T. & I. railroad is be

the grounds and Fordson tractors with
locomotive attachments will continually

large crew of men are busy at work
from early morn until late in the night
making the necessary preparations

ALPHABET PUZZLES
New and attractive features to please the children and gain
the interest of parents. Below is shown the first of this new
series of juvenile features—something for a “children’s cor
ner.”
These features will entertain and stir the inquiring faculties
of the child. Mother will also become interested.
“Alphabet Puzzles” are a variation and an improvement
on the hidden picture puzzle. They are confined to 27 sub
jects, each carrying a rhyme and an illustration attractive to
the eye. Each illustration contains hidden pictures. They
teach the alphabet, create an elemental idea of poetry and
awaken the imagination of the child. Finding the hidden pic
tures furnishes an agreebale manner of entertainment, while
Hxercising the child’s observation and developing its idea of
form. Instructions in small type accompanying each illustra
tion show the parent or instructor which way the picture is to
be turned in order that the child may puzzle out the concealed
faces.
These puzzles form an exceptionally good scrapbook fea
ture—something to be cut out and preserved.
They are especially commendable for the attractive,^cheer
ful drawings, each filled with the spirit of childhood. They
are the work of Violet Moore Higgins, an artist who has spe
cialized very successfully in this class of illustrating. The lit
tle ones will take great joy in the pictures and rhymes and in
working out the puzzles.

GEORGIA GIRL
Yn-tosville, On., Sept. 22, 1023.
Mr. Editor:--! have been thinking
for some time Hint i would write a let
ter to the home pnper, but you know,
(leal- friends, that, time flies so fast
that we do ant realize it, so T guess I
had better write now and not wait nnv
longer., for some times some of us wait
too long.to do things, and I'll tell you
one of these things, and that is giving
ot.r hearts and souls to God before it
is everlastingly too late.
I sure wish more people could wake
up to the fact of how this old wort.! is
going today. Most everybody is Just
looking out for a good time and it will
not do, my dear friends, you know.
There is coining a. time when we have
all got to die and it is a serious thought
if wo would only stop and think. Blit
seems that most of people's minds are
thinking of some useless thing that
perhaps will never do them hut very
little good. Oh, if everybody would
open their eves and see where they
standi But I guess it is for lots of us
not to see our lives as they are for it
would almost run as wild. I imagine.
Dear people, your life is short even if
villi live Id lie old, and if yon live a
sinful life and just go on and die in
sin Dial is .just one precious life wasted,
and vim know, my friends, God never
put his dear people here to live* a life
like. that. I surely don't think so. Lot
ns all try to live better, it would lie
just ns easy, and the best part of all,
when we leave this world We would en
ter that beautiful home above.
I hope this will be the means of snv
ine some soul.
All you Carroll people remember 1
wish each one of you much happiness in
your future life.
My best regards to all the renders

G. O. P. Ignores Tariff Reduc
tions Which Would Save
Every Family $100 to $150
Recent conferences between President
('indulge and members of Congress on
the subject of tax reductions, it is ob
served, have, not considered a method
hy which every American family could
he saved from’$100 to $150 ft year. In
ether words, these discussions have not
contemplated a decrease ill the present
Republican profiteers’ tariff.
The Fordnoy-McCuniber law has been
ill force and effect for a full year. It
is calculated that it. has increased the
,„sl of living from $3,000,000,000 to
$4,000,000,000 for the American peo
ple in twelve months of its operation.
These sums equal or exceed the total
annual cost of the Federal Government.
Only some $450,000,000—from 10 to 1.)
per’ cent- of those billions find their
wav into the Federal Treasury. The re-
mllindei— from $2,500,000,000 to $3,500,-
000,000- goes into the coffers of the
special interests, trusts, combines, and
monopolies for which the tariff was
devised. . . ..
\ reduction of 50 per cent in the
ptesent tariff taxes would mean a saving
to every American family pf considera
ble more than the average income tax
now paid and would not materially ef
fect the revenues of the Government.
The Fordney-McCuniber law has given
Hie profiteers a license and opportunity
lo collect tolls on goods and commodi
ties produced in ttiis country. An ex
ample of this is sugar produced in the
United States, Hawaii and Porto Rico.
The law levies no tariff on this sugar
directlv, but the refiners and manufac
turers add to their price 2 cents a pound
because that is the rate winch Gubnn
and other foreign sugars have to pay
to enter this market.. In short, the
American people are being taxed tor
the benefit of big monopolies that are
selling their products more cheaply in
foreign countries than in the United
States.
Willacoochee Organizes
Good Citizen League
Willacoochee has organized a Good
Citizens League, with Mayor J. O. Sir-
mans as temporary chairman and W. L.
Hny as secretary. One hundre repre
sentative citizens signed resolu'' us de
manding that violations of th 'rolii-
liition laws and attendant law ^ ness
cense, and pledging themselves ' ’ ,v <i be
fore the courts and ask for strait chain-
gang sentences where parties are eon
vieted of sacli violations. Makers and
sellers of liquor arc put on notice that
they must reform or leave that com
munity. The resolutions read like those
people mean business.—TLfton Gazette,
SEVENTY AUTO SPEEDERS
WERE FINED IN DAWSON
More than seventy auto drivers were
tried before Mayor McLendon, of Daw
son, recently on charges of speeding
and reckless driving. For some time
Dawson link employed a plain clothes
man to catch those exceeding the speed
limit, and ns a result the court room
was packed with offenders.
Each fine was assessed by the mayor
according to the rate the speeder was
traveling when caught. The session
netted the city more.than $350 in fines.
IF SKIN BREAKS
OUT AND ITCHES
APPLY SULPHUR
Just the moment you apply Mentho-
Sulphur to an itching, burning or
broken out skin, the itching stops and
healing begins, says a noted skin spe
cialist. This sulphur preparation, made
into a pleasant cold cream, gives such
a quick relief, even to fiery eczema,
that nothing has ever been found to
take its place.
Because of its germ-destroying prop
erties, it quickly subdues the itching,
cools the irritation and heals the eczema
right up, leaving a clear, smooth skin
in place of ugly eruptions, rash, pim
ples or roughness.
You do not have to wait for improve
ment. It quickly shows. You can get
a little jar of Rowles Mentlio-Sulphur-
at any drug store.

At the Latest Prices—
In History
You will find the Firestone Dealer one
of the stable business men of your com
munity. He offers a clean, fresh stock,
backed by a well organized service. He
wants you as a permanent customer.
That is the reason he sells Firestone
tires. He knows and has plenty of proof
tiiat they are the best tires on the mar
ket. He can give you the greatest value
and thereby retain your trade for ye-ars.
Every day you find new proof of this
unequalled value. On the 15th of this
month, Firestone Tires set two new dirt
track records at Syracuse when Tommy
Milton slid around four turns at even.'
mile and covered the 100 miles in 75 min
utes, 33 hundredths seconds. He also
established a new world’s record for one
mile by covering it in 4 2 and 28 hun
dredths sicontis. The next four cars to
finish were also equipped with Firestone
Gum-Dipped Cords. Each one of them
went the entire race without a stop. This;
and every other important race this year
was won on Firestone Gum-Dipped
Cords and Steam-Welded Tubes. Such
performance gives you conclusive proof
of their- strength and durability.
Not only do race drivers use Firestone
Tires as protection to their livc3 and the
surest way to victory, but the largest
tire buyers in the world insist on and
buy Firestone Tires for economy and
service. These buyers include the leadin'*
car manufacturers, the biggest commer
cial car operators and the taxicab and
motorbus operators. 57.639,714 tiro-
miles were sold to taxicab and motorbus.
operators in the month of August.
‘ Think this over. You cannot afford
to accept anything less than Firestone
service and economy. You can buy thi3
service and economy from ar.y of the
dealers listed below.
