Members of the Atlanta bar and

are today pondering a lecture by Dr.
William Perrin Ni col son, medical ex
pert, delivered Mondrvy night on “The
Ethics of the Profession.”
“The corporation law’yer insists
that a green plaster will cure spinal
concussion, and that the injured vic
tim gets well at the sight of the
long green,” said the expert. “If you
think your client Is going to get well
before the trial comes, or If he gets
well too quick, do your duty; there
are some cases to be settled.
“But the most outrageous practice
of the personal Injury lawyer is the
frequency with which the claims of
clients are sacrificed and compro
mised by lawyers who have no qualms
of conscience at this shady practice.”

When a woman’s hair turns gray,
the world expects her to step back
from the limelight. Active and
abreast of the times she may be,
with a wide experience, but—she'
has grown old and gray headed.
Fortunate indeed, is the woman
whose hair retains Its color
through her^forties.
But what of the woman whose
hair begins to fade, maybe as early
as 25 or 30, the woman in the midst
of the active business world? “We
don’t want old women!” She feels
it all around her.
Don’t let your hair t urn gray. But
be careful. Very few hair stains are
absolutely pure and harmless.
There are some reliable prepara
tions: oui Robinnaire Hair Dye is
one. Made here in Atlanta, in our
own laboratory, and we guaran
tee it to be pure and positively
non-injurious to either hair or
scalp. It makes the hair soft and
keeps it in fin** condition, and no
one can detect that a hair stain
has been used, ft is not. a vulgar
bleach or artificial coloring. It
i«« a natural restorative that puts
back life and color into the hair.
No one need hesitate to use it.
Non-sticky, afcd does not stain skin
or scalp
No woman need have gray hair
undesired. But don’t pull out the
white hatirs. Two will grow in im
mediately for every one you pull
out. Use Rohinnaire’s Hair Dye
at once, and don’t let people call
you old. It is prepared for light,
medium and dark brown and black
hair. Trial size. 25c: postpaid, 31 < :
regular size. 75c: postpaid, 83c.
