Practically every house is filled, business is good and the prospects for a good year were never brighter.

At a recent joint meeting of two Decatur clubs, the ladies decided to make an effort to rejuvenate the civic improvement society, and they have already made some plans toward that, end. Representatives from each dub j, in the city will be invited to attend a ,] meeting soon if the plans materialize, 1 at which time something real will be , ' done in the way of deciding what ’ steps will be taken toward beautifying j Decatur. A cleaning up day, attention < of lawns and the proposed city parks t and other work will keep them busy. 4 _———— t Governor Ralston has appointed ‘ Thomas Taggart, C. W. Fairbanks and . S. B.

Owing to the fact that the first venire of the jury chosen to try the case of Ralph Hoover was incomplete, because some of the men had moved out of the county, it became necessary to! make a new drawing, and the name of' August Brown of Willshire is among that number. —Willshire Herald. Mr. Brown is well known here, and has often visited at the home of Henry Gunsett and others. He is a Willshire merchant. o— POLICE COURT. The trial of Glen Roberts, one of the participants in a fight at the VtrHl hoop factory several weeks ago, was held before ’Squire Stone this morning. Robert pleaded guilty to the charge of assault and battery and was | given a fine of Si and costs which hei stayed. The affidavit against Roberts was made by Jerry (Red) Burkhead, • who was fined SI and costs also on a : 1 similar affidavit filed against him by j Jr.cZ GRANDMOTHER USED SAGE TEA TO DARKEN HER FADED OR GRAY HAIR. Mixed With Sulphur it Makes Hair Soft, Beautiful—Cures Dandruff. | The use of Sage and Sulphur for restoring faded, gray hair to its natural color dates back to grandmother’s time. She kept her hair beautifully darkened, glossy and abundant with a brew of Sage Tea and Sulphur. Whenever her hair fell out or took on that dull, faded or streaked appearance, this simple mixture was applied with wonderful effect. But the brewing at home is mussy and out of date. Nowadays skilled chemists do this better than ourselves. By asking at any drug store for the ready-to-use product—called "Wyeth’s Sage and Sulphur Hair Remedy”—you will get a large bottle for aoout 50 cents. Some druggists make their own, which is usually too sticky, so insist upon getting Wleth's, which can be depended upon to restore natural color and beauty to the hair and is ' splendid for- dandruff, dry, feverish, itchy scalp and falling hair. A well-known down-town druggist says his customers insist on Wyeth’s i Sage and Sulphur, because, they say, it darkens so naturally and evenly that nobody can tell it has been applied—it's so easy to use. too. You simply dampen a sponge or soft brush and draw it through your hair, taking one strang at a time. Do this at night and by morning the gray bair disappears; after another application or' two, it is restored to its natural color and looks glossy, soft and abundant.
