WANTON BIRD SLAUGHTER MAY SOON BE CHECKED ATLANTA, March 6. —Agricul- turists here are calling attention to the fact that 'birds that help far mers, are being slaughtered, and a movement is under way to check the distinction of the feathery tribe. Statistics made public here show that there are sixty-six kinds of birds of the Southeastern States that feed upon boll weevils. It is shown that they not only help the farmer by feeding upon the boll weevil, the bollworm, the leafworm, and other pests of cotton nut de stroy important insect enemies of all the crops. “Too often the man or boy with a gun pays no attention to the kind of bird he shoots,” said an agricul tural department official. The de sire to kill any bird is responsible for the destruction of many feath ered friends of mankind. It is u desire that is doing harm to South ern agriculture and to one of the chief delights of out-door life in the South, for the song birds fill the Southern air with melody. All these birds, in fact birds in gen eral, should receive.all the protec tion the Southern planter can ex tend.” Plains Methodist Circuit All three of the services at Ry lander were well attended this last appointment and seemed to be en joyed by all present. The Epworth League Council of the Plains League will be held next Monday night at the residence ol the president, Mrs. Carrie Spann.

SAGE TEA TURNS GRAY HAIR DARK It’s Grandmother’s Recipe to Bring Back Color and Lustre to Hair ® II That beautiful, even shade of dark, glossy hair can only be had by brew ing a mixture of Sage Tea and Sul phur. Your hair is your charm. It makes or mars the face. Wien it fades, turns gray or streaked, just an application or two of Sage and Sul phur enhances its appearance a hun dredfold. Don’t bother to prepare the mixture; you can get this famous old recipe im proved by the addition of other ingre dients at a small cost, all ready for use. It is called Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Compound. This can always be de pended upon to bring back the natural color and lustre of your hair. Everybody uses “Wyeth’s” Sage and Sulphur Compound now because it darkens 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 the hair, taking one small strand at a time; by morning the gray hair has disappeared, and after another applica tion it become* beautifully dark and appears glossy and lustrous.
