Almost every one knows that Sage Tea and Sulphur, properly compound ed, brings back the natural color and luster to the hair when faded, streaked or gray: also ends dandruff, itching s< alp and stops falling hair. Years ago the only way to get this mixture was to make it at home, which is mussy and troublesome. Nowadays we simply ask at any drug store for “Wyeth’s Sage and Sulphur Hair Remedy.” You will get a large bottle for about 50 cents. Everybody' uses this old. famous recipe, because no one <an possibly tell that you darkened your hair, as it does it so naturally and evenly. Sou dampen a sponge or soft brush with it and draw this through your hair, taking one small strand at a time: by morning the gray hair dis appears. and after another application or two. your hair becomes beautifully dark, thick and glossy and sou look years younger.—A<1 vt.

It is a singular fact that not one of these large donors outside ex press even the slightest doubt of what Atlanta will do. They take it for granted and as a matter of fact that this city will subscribe the nec essary amount in ;i conyparatively short time This faith i« proving a wonderful stimulus to the soliciting committees and all are at work with a vim and ardor that can mean noth ing but success. R. Howard, a leading citizen of Co lumbus, who gave $1,000 to, the fund and will he a member of the board of trustees, writes to Dr. Jacobs: "Atlanta is a big city and does big tilings in many ways, and in my humble judgment this will he one of if not the largest, things she will have done, and result in more good being accomplished long after wo all who feci so much Interest in it have Passed over the liver to render out accounts.

It is a part of the Evan gelical Ministers’ Association of Atlanta. It is doing our work, under our direction and reporting regularly to us. _ , _ It has received our full co-operation at every step. '' < Its purpose is neither political nor dictatorial, but educational and constructive. Its sole object is to advance the Church of Jesus Christ as the most effective instrument to be used in bringing to pass the Kingdom of God on earth for which we pray. Fifteen months ago in our capacity as citizens and ministers of the Gospel and representing the Evangelical Ministers’ Association we pub lished over our individual signatures our pledge of loyalty to the program of the Executive Committee in the campaign against intolerable vice con clitions in Atlanta. The actual results accomplished in the overthrow of the inhuman traffic, in accomplishing the establishing of the Daily Vacation Bible Schools, in the building and maintenance of the Martha’s Home, in the achievement of the County Home for incorrigible women and girls, in the establishment of the Georgia Training School for Girls with an appro priation from the State of $30,000.00, in relieving the harsh and unprofi table dealing with convicts and first offenders, are facts of such outstand ing value to the welfare of the City of Atlanta and the State of Georg,a as to challenge the sympathy and suppoH of every Christian citizen. With these facts before us we herewith present to the public the unanimous re affirmation of our confidence in the Committee and our de votion to its work and its program of agitation and education as sub mitted to us. The work must go on to the com pleter triumph which the victories already won make sure. 7.. E. Barton, Jackson Hill Baptist. John E. White, Second Baptist Church. W. C. Schaeffer.
