TURN HAIR DARK
WITH SAGE TEA
If Mixed with Sulphur It Darkens
So Naturally Nobody
Can Tell
The old-time mixture ot Sage Tea
and Sulphur for darkening gray,
stw?aked and faded hair is grandmoth
er’s 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 a 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 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
coqjb or a soft brush with it and draw
this through your hair, taking one small
stfsud 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 of abundance which is
so attractive.
I AAMC made on improved
L'kJrtl farm lands at cheap
est rates for terms of 5,7 or 10
years with pre-payment option given
Money secured promptly. We have
now outstanding over $1,100,000 on
farms in Sumter couyity alone, with
plenty more to lend.

WHOLE GRAIN WHEAT CO.,
CHICAGO, ILL.
Gentlemen:
‘*l sent you ah order recently for one dozen tins of WHOLE
GRAIN WHEAT, this being the third dozen thai_l have or
dered.
"1 cannot say enough for WHOLE GRAIN WHEAT. I had
been suffering with constipation for a long time and had nev
er found anything that gave me any permanent relief until I
tr'ed WHOLE GRAIN WH&AT. I am eating- it twice every
day and enjoy it very much. In fact, it is about all that I do
eat at these two meals.” W. J. Weaver.
This potent food is the natural wheat berry (the only sin
gle food known to man which contains in balanced combina
tion all the sixteen elements required each day for normal nu
trition) in its whole form just as it comes from Natures lab
oratory with nothing added and nothing taken away, and is
wheat in its supreme nutritional effect, because it is the fust
wheat civilized man ever ate that has been cooked ready to
serve without oxidation, distillation, or evaporation effects,
the method of cooking being protected by the United States
Canadian Governments. It is not whole wheat flour, but
"is a food after the form of peas and beans, and more potent
in its nutritional effect than any cooked food ever before pro
duced, because the cooking has'not demineralized nor oxidiz
ed its mineral constituents.
It is never sold through grocery stores but only through
authorized distributor. It comes in hermetically sealed san
itary 11-ounce tins (ample for four servings) and is sold in
packages of not less than one dozen (a 24-day supply because
regular use is essential to results) delivered for $2.00. Guaran
teed to improve the user physically and mentally when used
twice daily for 24 days or money refunded.

POTATO GRDWIfIS
ASKED 18 DIP SEED
Law Requires This to Be Done
Where Plants Are to Be Ship
ped During Spring ,
'Sumter county sweet potato
growers who expect to ship, sell
or give away sweet potato plants
next spring, must have their tub
ers inspected before bedding, ac
cording to a letter received today
by George O. Marshall, from Jeff
Chafin, chief inspector of the Geor
gia State Board of Entomology. In
this letter, which has just been
formally approved by Ira W. Wil
liams, state entomologist it is stat
ed that “all potatoes must be dip
ped ten minutes in a corrosive
sublimate (bi-chloride) solution at
the strength of 1 to 1000 before
bedding. This treatment costs very
little, does not injure the potatoes
and at the same time insures you
against several sweet potato dis
eases. No certificate tags will be is
sued next spring unless the tubers
have been treated before bedding.”
The corrosive sublimate (bi-chlo
ride) can be purchased from any
drug store or secured thru the In
spector. It should be used at the
rate 1 oz. to 8 gallons of water or
8 tablets to one gallon of water)
