it had been decided to adjourn the tu
que.*-;. which had been called for 4:30
o’clock in the afternoon. Coroner
Donehoo was informed of important
evidence that had not yet been pre
sented and which still was In an in
definite state. It was his opinion that
the interests of t.h* investigati -n
would best he served by postponing
further questioning of witnesses until
Monday.
Girl Not on Streets After Noon.
The result of the !a.?t 24 hours . f
the work of the detectives has be. n
to prove quite conclusively that Mary
Phagan was not seen on the .streets
of Atlanta, either ’n the heart of the
city or near her home, after noon
Saturday when she went to the pen
cil factory to obtain her pay envel
ope.
A half dozen persons were on hand
soon after the death of the girl to tes
tify that they had seen her at one
place or another at some time after
she was known to have gone into the
factory.
Their stories conflicted so great’;
with the. probabilities of the case that
the story of each man was run down
carefully by the detectives who gave
their whole time to this phase of the
Investigation.
In each case the witness was found
either positively or quite probably to
he mistaken, and tin* detectives wen-
able to go back to their original the
ory that the girl did not leave the
building after drawing her pay.
Felder to Aid Prosecution.
To aid in tho investigation, Thomas*
B. Felder, member of the law firm of
Felder, Anderson, Dillon A- Whitman,
has been engaged to assist the Soliei-
tor General in the prosecution. He
was retained by a committee of the
citizens from the Redwood community
in which was the dead girl’s home.
Mr. Felder said to-day that he al
ready had started a private investiga
tion Wh i: no was retained and that
he would have an abundance of evi
dence s’ii.hin a few days. He refused
to diaci*s?3 the report that Burns de
tectives had been employed.

The old-time mixture of Sage Tea
and Sulphur fot darkening gray,
streaked and faded hair is coming
in vogue again, ay.s a well known
downtown druggist. It was our
grandmother’s treatment and hun
dreds of women, and men, too. are
again using it to keep their hair a
good, oven color, which is quite sen
sible. as we are living in an age
when a youthful appearance is of
the greatest advantage.
Nowadays, though, wo don't have
the troublesome task of gathering
the sage and the mussy mixing at
home. All drug stores sell th|
ready-to-use product called "Wy- J
eth's Sage and Sulphur Hair Rem- j
edy” for about 30 cents a bottle, it «
Is the most popular because no- j
body can discov r it has been ap- (
plied. Simply dampen a soft j
brush or sponge with “Wyeth's Sage j
and Sulphur’ and draw this through j
s our hair, taking one small Strand j
at a time. Do this to-night, and by j
morning the gray hair disappear- ?
and after another application it is \
restored to its natural color. J
What delights the ladies with j
Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur is that, j
besides beautifully darkening the j
hair, they say it produces that soft <
luster and appearance of abundance j
which is so attractive, besides pro- t
vents dandruff, itching scalp and j

thetruth is there, and, like the great surgeon of social ills that

and fraud of the smugly respectable, conventionally moral
marriages of modern life. It’s brilliant, witty, clever; in a
word, it’s Shaw at his best. In it, he says:

"Oh, you nevrr gave me the faintest hint
that you had a wife.”
“I did, indeed. 1 discussed things with
you that only married people really un
derstand. I thought it the most delicate
wav of letting yo i know.”
“Danger delicious But death isn’t.
Wr court the danger; but the real delight
is in escaping, after all.”
“As long as I have a want, I have a reason
for living Satisfaction is death."
“To my English mind, passion is not rea 1
passion without guilt. I am a red-
blooded man. Mrs. Lunn; I can’t help it.
The tragedy of my life is that I married,
when quite young, a woman whom I
couldn’t help being very fond of.”
“I longed for a guilty passion—for the
real thing—the wicked thing: and vet I
couldn’t care twopence for any other
woman when my wife was about ”
“Year after year went by; I felt my youth
slipping away without ever having had a
romance in my life: for marriage is all
very well ; but it isn’t romance. There’s
nothing wrong in it, you see.*'

Witli Lie Younci American Star,
BERKELY HASWELL.
Yet under the shock of his audacity and the veneer of his wit
lies the deep-rooted truth of it all for “G. B. S.” never writes
without a purpose. Splendidly illustrated with four of the
best drawings Charles Dana Gibson has ever made, “Over
ruled" appears in the May number of Hearst’s Magazine, a
number doubly noted for its wealth of good reading because
in it “Tire Woman Thou Gavest Me," that masterpiece of
Hall Caine's, reaches its most exciting climax.
The celebrated Russian
novelist is the central
figure in an amazing
story in which the
other figure is an ac
tress for whom he
deserted his wife and
child.
