PRINTERS CONCERNED OVER
ADVANCE IN PAPER PRICES
ATLANTA, Ga., March 31. —Printers
their allies in trade in Atlanta are se
riously concerned over the advance in
the price of white paper. Newspapers
which until recently purchased their
stock at $1.99 a hundred pounds, are
quoted today at a price of $3.25 and
find they must put in their orders or
make their contracts far in advance of
THE AMERICUS DAILY TIMES-RECORDER
• the time when they may need the pa
• per.
The rise in the price of every com
modity can be traced directly to the
wa . Much of our paper-making ma
terial comes from Canada. Transpor-
• tation and labor are scarce in the Do-
■ minion today, and the American manu
i facturer and ultimately the consumer,
> must pay the price.
Something like 1’5,000 tons of paper
■ is manufactured each day in the
United States, a large proportion of
, which goes ipt o the printing of publi
cations that are not of permanent
value, and in the making of wrapping
. pajier. which is used only once. Ac-
■ cording to advices received here, the
United States department of commerce
believes that if the waste were saved,
it would help solve the problem of to
day.
Paper dealers in Atlanta say that the
government is co-operating with the
manufacturers in an effort to effect a
aving, and if there is any man in Geor
gia or surrounding states who wishes
to make a business of collecting paper
making material, he can have the aid
of the department of commerce, who
will put him in touch with the manu
facturers who are interested.

SAGE TH KEEPS
YOUR Hllll DMK
IT’S GRANDMOTHER’S RECIPE TO
BRING BACK COLOR, YOUTHFUL
NESS AND LUSTRE—EVERYBODY
IS USING IT AGAIN.
Gray hair, however handsome, de
notes advancing age. We all know the
advantages of a youthful appearance.
Your hair is your charm. It makes or
mars the face. When it fades, turns
I gray and looks streaked, just a few
applications of Sage Tea and Sulphur
enhances its appearance a hundred-
I fold.
Don’t stay gray! Look young!
Either prepare the recipe at home or
get from any drug store a 50-cent bot
j tie of “Wyeth’s Sage and Sulphur
Compound,” which is merely an old
time recipe improved by the addition
of other ingredients. Thousands of
folks recommend this ready-to-uea
preparation, because it darkens «o
I naturally and evenly. You moisten a
| spongs or soft brust with it, drawing
this through the hair, taking one small
; strand at a time. By morning the grav
j hair disappears; after another appli
cation or two, its natural color is re
i stored and it becomes thick, glossy and
lustrous, and you appear years
younger.
| Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Compound
is a delightful toilet requisite. It ia
not intended for the cure, mitigation or
I prevention of disease.
