FALLING HAIR OR
ITCHING SCALP
Sunjly Cease When You Use Parisian
Sage Makes Your Hair
Soft and Fluffy.
Now that Parisian Sage a scient
ific preparation that supplies every
hair and scalp need can be had m
any -drug counter, or from J. E. Hood
Drug Co., it is certainly needless
to have thin, brittle, matted, stringy
or faded hair. No matter how un
sightly your hair, how badly it is
falling, or how much dandruff, Pari
sian Sage is all that is needed. Every
trace of dandruff is removed with c"
application, the hair roots are nour
ished and stimulated to grow new hair,
itching scalp and falling hair cease
your hair becomes soft, fluffy, abund
ant and radiant with life and beau
ty. Parisian Sage is surely one of the
mcst invigorating and refreshing hair
tonics known. It is easily used at homo
not expensive, and even one applica
tion proves its goodness. (advt.)

5:30 .o'clock, Miss Julia Hunter Par
ham entertained about seventy-five of
her young friends at tie home of her
parents, Mr. and Mrs. J. H. Parham,
207 West Peyton avenue. The occa
sion was the celebration of her fifth
birthday anniversary, and was a most
delightful affair. The home was
beautifully decorated with golden rod
and roses and presented a most in
viting scene to the young folks as
they were ushered in from the front
hall, where punch and other dainty
refreshments were served upon their
arrival.
The chief feature of the entertain
ment program was a fishing pond,
where mirth and glee were aroused by
Hallowe'en favors taken from the
pond and distributed among the lit
tle guests, as souvenirs of the happy
event.
ENJOYABLE SOCIAL.

lightfully informal social gathering

Mrs. H. H. Grainger, on North Queen

happy affair was arranged by the La
dies' Aid Society of the church, and
was splendidly successful, a beauti
ful spirit of congenial fellowship
prevailing throughout.
Receiving the guests at the door
were Mr. and Mrs. Hanrahan and
Mr. and Mrs. Grainger, who had so
generously given tv use of their ele
gant home for the occasion. The
house had been tastefullv decorated
with autumnal flowers, tpe dining
room being especially pretty. Adorn
ing the table, on a dainty Cluny lace
centerpiece, was a crystal basket of
lovely roses and sprays of smilax,
surrounded by beautiful silver can
delabra, and gleaming tapers here and
there brightened the scene of loyal
and friendly tribute being offered the
beloved pastor and his wife.
During the evening the guests
Were entertained with a number of
vocal selections by Miss Pruitt, and
Miss May Loomis Smith's rendition
of instrumental numbers added much
to the pleasure of the occasion.
Delicious refreshments, consisting
of fruit frappe, ice cream and cake,
were served, the members of the so
ciety being assisted in serving by
Misses Carrie Duffy Wooten and Ina
Mae Lee and Master Elwood Boney.
MOTHERS' PENSION
LEGISLATION PRAISED.
Chicago, Octfl 9. Mothers' pension
legislation checks juvenile delin
quency and operates to prevent
crime, Prof. Robert H. Gault of
Northwestern University, editor of
the Journal of Criminal Law and
Criminology, today reported to the
municipal crime commission for
which he has conducted an investi
gation for several months.
"Juvenile delinquency is checked or
entirely disappears where the family
is enabled to support itself without
its being necessary for the mother
to be away from her children at work
all day," reported Prof. Gault. "Moth
er love and mother care are the best
cure for juvenile delinquency, and
therefore a powerful preventive of
crime." t

HOUSTON ADVOCATES
CROP DIVERSIFICATION.
Washington, Oct. 8. Secretary
Houston today sent to a number of
Southern exchanges a letter advocat

not prove effective.

ever
We realize, with all the residents of the South,
the present financial stringency due to the cotton
situation. We realize that the South must sell its
cotton, and we will help in the most practical way
we know by buying cotton.
For every pound sold of all of these famous, popular brands of
tobacco and cigarettes (counting 1,000 cigarettes equal to five pounds
of tobacco) we will buy from our dealers a pound of cotton at 10c, in
accordance with our circular to dealers dated Sept. 28. .
We have faith in cotton. We know that when the war clouds
roll away, the manufacturing demand for cotton throughout the world
will be greater than ever before, and the South will enjoy unprece
dented prosperity.
