1 Henry Ford has purchased a little 1 ract in Kentucky—l2o.ooo acres—and this patch is said to contain a goodly amount of the coal of that I state. Now, if Henry w ill put it on lhe market at flivver prices, he will again show his ability as a business 'man and place the country under deeper obligations to him. And he’s just liable to do that very thing. It will take all the millions of John Mitchell to cover up the legacy of i diame he will leave his' two chil dren when he shuffles off. He had money, position, a wonderful family

and about everything one could wish lint he seems to have been caught in the bright light trap and now he must pay the price. Disgrace is a severe punishment. It's time to plant trees and shrubs and the joy of this work is known only to those who have tried it. The Woman's chili at Concord, Ga, start’d out to get each person in town to | plant a tree and in a campaign of one week succeeded in getting four trees planted for each person in town. That isn't necessary here, but almost every property owner can easily place one 'or more and it means much

to those residing here in twenty j years. = — -" Advertising is a powerful force. It has changed buying habits of a hundred million people in the United States the past few years. We are driving 502 per cent more automobiles than ten years ago, we use 137 ( per cent more porcelain bath tubs than in 1919, we smoke 285 per cent more cigarettes than we did in 1913, we eat 300 per cent more ice cream than five years ago, wool has increased 30 per cent, cotton 5 per eent, beef 6 per cent and petroleum 221 per cent in a few years. The judicious use of printers ink did the job in each case. There is some thing to think about. Madam Sarah Bernhardt, whose emotional acting made her famous the world over, and who had pleased more people than any other person, is dead. The end of her career came without a struggle, the famous tragedienne drifting into the world beyond without a struggle. She was seventy years old and had been before the public through three generations, sixty years. Though she spoke French the theaters in every nation of ihe world were packed to watch her wonderful emotional climaxes, even though they could not understand her lancuaee. She was a won iderfui woman in many ways and the stage of life loses a real character. ■o — WILL IMPROVE HIGHWAY State to Resurface Stone Road From Bluffton to Ossian W. (1.

TURN HAIR DARK WITH SAGE TEA If Mixed with Sulphur It Darkens So Naturally Nobody Can Tell The old-time mixture of Sage Tea and Sulphur for darkening gray, streaked and faded hair Is grandmothers recipe, and folks are again using it to keep their hair a good, even color, which is-quite sensible, as we are living in an age when a youthful appearance is of the greatest advantage. Nowadays, though, we don’t have the troublesome task of gathering the sage and the mussy mixing at home. All drug stores sell the ready-to-use product, improved by the addition of other ingredients, called "Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Compound.” It is very popular because nobody can discover it has been applied. Simply moisten your comb or a soft brush with it and draw this through your hair, taking one small strand at a time; by morning the gray hair disappears, but what delights the ladies with Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Compound. is that, besides beautifully dnrkenlng the hair after a few applications, it also produces that soft lustre and appearance of abundance which is so attractive. Columbia City—Records show automobile population of this city has increased from two in IMS to 3,01 ti. Population is 5,000.
