Why pay good money for a piano that is not weatlurpruof
when you can buy one built'specially to stand the trying South
ern climate —The Mathushek Piano.
Come rain or sun, damp weather or dry, or whether the
house be steam, furnace or stove heated, the splendid singing
tone of the Mathushek Piano remains unimpaired.
The Pm Block construction of the
rtfoatbusbch piano
in §i»ch that the Tuning l*in* cannot slip, turn or bend. This means
lasting inutical quality and a great reduction in tuning expense. The
Sounding Board cannot warp, swell or crack. The Improved Muffler
protects the feltt. The Sostenuto or Tone-Sustaining Pedal enables the
player to sustain the bass notes at will.
These and many other features are the result of 40 years in the mak
ing of Mathushek Pianos, of which there are 40,000 in use.
Another great factor is the easy way in which this magnificent
instrument may be purchased. The model shown above sells
for $450, and can be secured for $25 down and further
monthly payments of as little as SIO.OO practically rental
rates. Your old instrument taken In part payment.

A Cure For Insomnia—
Concerning a New Play—
Not a Purple Cow, But
Eyebrows A Woman’s
Idea of Business.
Even those who are not habitual
sufferers from insomnia must have
more than occaeional reasons for
echoing the sentiments of the man
who wrote
" God bless the man who first invent
ed sleep,”
So Sancho Panza said, and so say I,
And bless him also that he did not
keep
This great invention to himself,
but rather —
Now it is a period of more years
than one cares to recall since those
lines were last seen, and thp quota
tion may be Inaccurate, but the idea
Is expressed clearly enough .that Idea
of the blessedness of sleep that be
gins to haunt the restless tosserj
when sleep simply refuses to come.
It Is an idea that so persistontly
haunts one that always welcome
should the recipe that insures slum-|
ber, whether that recipe consists of
a pattern by which must be made the
pillow of hops, or instructions as to
the exact intervals at which a black
sheep mflst appear among the white
ones that are counted as they are
mentally assisted over the stile.
Time was when we spoke of the
average person being as particular
I about this, that or the other thing as
[about their choice of a physfeian or
of a sewing machine; but in those
days of mental sicence we are grand
ly superior to doctors, while sewing
machines are hopelessly out-of-date in
the modern home, and so we, in or
der to make ourselves clear to the
present generation, must say that each
individual Is as tenacious ol ills or
her ideas in regard to the besr. way
to go to sleep as of his or her con
viction In regard to the best make
of automobiles.
Because of this tenacity of opin
ion or purpose, advice on the subject
is not always welcomed, but there
may be a slumberless few wno are
only too eager to grasp at any straw,
and for their benefit there is given
here a sure charm against sleepless
ness, at least one that has worked
surely for one person, and that
ought to be no less efficacious for
othys.
As those who sleep not know, it
Is not sufficient merely to recite to
oneself either prose or poetry, but
there are certain combinations of
words in either that make a magical
ly soporific effect. After trying count
less examples, or rather samples from
the work of every poet and essayist
whose works have been read for—
again for more years than one cares
to remember, the conclusion has been
reached that nothing Is magical
as these lines from “The Lotos Eat
ers.” At first they may not seem
very efficient, but when one mentally
creates the atmosphere they suggest,
and cons them over and over with
the rythmic swing that is peculiarly
their own, then the full magic of the
lines Is realized, or rather forgotten,
for sleep comes.
“How sweet It were hearing the down
ward stream
With half-shut eyes ever to seem
Falling asleep In a half dream,
To dream and dream, like yonder
amber light upon the lotos
bough”—
Since we are—so it has been ru
mored to have the pleasure of see*
lug, among the many splendid attrac
tions at the Grand this coming sea
son, the greatly discussed play, "An
Knglishman’s Home,” everything per
taining to that remarkable drama is
of Intense interest to us.
A good story coming from across
the water, and as yet, we believe, un :
printed, concerns the quick wit of
a German attache at the London em
bassy, who was asked whether he
had yet seen Major du.Maurier’s play.
As soon as this drama was presented,
and especially since It has been made
accessible as a book, the public has
been keen to know how the Germans
view a satire that makes the English
volunteer army a laughable failure In
the face of a German enemy.
"Have you seen An Englishman’s
Home?’” the attache was asked.
To this he replied, 'T saw some
military play the other evening; it
may hnve been called ’An English
man’s Home.’ but It might just as
well have been cdlled ‘What Every
German Knows.’ ”
Someone who read of the peculiar
effect sea air has upon dyed hair
tells us that breezes from the ocean
are not required to bring about cer
tain other remarkable physical condi
tions.
The other day on Broad street, a
pretty woman, a very pretty woman,
we are told, looked decidedly unusuai
because her eye-brows were seen to
he a bright, purplish blue. Wbat had
happened?
When pressed for information, the
purple-eyebrowed lady—after she had
recovered from her surprise and dis
may—confessed that she had blacked,
presumably, her brows with a pencil
[chosen at random in the dark.
It is said that when a certain very
attractive and notably efficient sten
ographer connected with a promi
nent Augusta business office walked
Into the grandstand at a baseball
game, the other day, more excite
ment was created than if Mr. Taft
had suddenly appeared to prove here,
In his winter home, what he has else
where demonstrated, that golf is not
the only game.
The reason for the surprise and the
comment was that this earnest, pur
poseful and faithful young woman
had never before been known to
leave her desk until after office hours.
For seven years, she had been absent
from this desk for just two days, with
the exception of Sundays, Christmas
and her midsummer holiday.
We wonder if many business men
In Augusta can boast the same record.
And yet they say that women are
given smaller wages than men be
cause they are not physically capable
of so strict and unremitting an at
tention to business.

“For several months my hair had been falling out,
and I was greatly distressed with dandruff.
I used many so-called hair tonics and renewers,
but never received any relief from the scalp disease
until I procured Parisian Sage and used it for about
two weeks.
Parisian Sage made the hair stop faking out, and
caused it to grow in quite heavily, stopped the dan
druff and made the scalp clean and comfortable. It
also leaves the hair silky, and does not- make it stiff
or sticky.’’—Mrs. H. Lawrence, 157 West 17th St.,
Holland, Mich., Oct. 30, 1908.
Vxk This is the exact size of a package of Parisian
Sage as it is sold at druggists. Why should you hes
itate to use it when such remarkable cures are being
made daily ?
Is the discovery of a noted scientist, and it contains
exactly the proper ingredients that go tq make healthy
hair. As a hair dressing, and to prevent disease of
the hair and scalp, it is positively better than any
other preparation. No matter what condition your
hair is in it will grow longer, more beautiful and lux
uriant if Parisian Sage is used.
Parisian Sage is not a dye, but is the favorite hair
dressing of the refined women of America, because
one application makes the hair unusually attractive.
Parisian Sage is guaranteed to stop falling hair, cure
itching of the scalp and dandruff in two weeks, or
money back.
