nice red cabbage, cut in quarters, re-
move the stalks and cut it across in
very thin slices, Lay these on a dish,
strew them plentifully with salt and
cover with another dish. Let them re-
main "a hours, turn into colander to
drain, and If necessary wipe lightly
with a cloth. Put them in a jar and
boil up the vinegar and spices, and

cool place. 1t will be fit for use in a

OYSTERS Go
To Waste IN
BALTIMORE
Thousands Of Bushels Of Lus-
ciOus Bivalves ROTOR the
Hands Of the Dealers

Baltimore, Dec. 1S.-Since the
oyster season opened, thousands of
t'Fi els of 11e Chesapeake BAY psi
cfs have gone to waste, The dsa;e, g
being unable to find a market which
would net reasonable profit,
For the first time since the Ccnfed-
crate war, probably, dozen eggs will
buy a bushel of oysters and that
bushel will open gallon. The cost
of opening-twenty cents-is almost
the price of the oysters.
This is the best season for oysters
in good many years, but for the oyst-
err packer and shipper it is the Door
est in many seasons.
The oysters are large, fine and plen-
tiful, but there is no market for them.
The stringent times is largely respon-
sible.
1t is thought that the arrival of the
holiday season will result in an in.
crease demand for the bivalves. but
in the meantime the concerns engag-
ed in the osyster business have suffer
ed heavy loss through their inability
to market their product.

The century just passed has wit,
messed an enormous multiplication Of
large cities and their rapid growth
In 1901 there were in all Europe but
% cities Of more than 100000 inhab-
itants, Of which only London and Paris
had more than 100000 and none
reached 100000. At present there
are 100 cities of more than 100000 in
habitants, 55 above 5000 and seven
Of more than 1,0oO. geo. In the entire
world there are 10 cities Of 1,0Oo, zoe
or more inhabitants, Including the Eu.
ropean seven. M. De Foville, Q
French student Of comparative statis-
tics, attributes this unprecedented in
crease to the TACT that the combined
efforts Of science, industry and inven-
ton have actually changed the face
OF the world. Chemistry, steam and
electricity, railways and steamers,
gold and credit have all appeared dur

No Man Over as Years of Age Need
Apply

There's the sign that's getting to be
common thing in America.
Corporations are retiring men at 40.
They are not hiring anyone over 40.
A baldheaded man often looks 10
years older than he is.
A man with gray hair always does.
1t is important nowadays that a man
look as young as he is; it is vastly
important that man having a family
dependent upon him should take cara
of his hair
If you have dandruff, get rid of it
by killing the germs.
If your hair is falling out, stop it..
any time.
There is one sure remedy that will
cure these misfortunes and aid you
to remain young.
Parsian Sage, the grand and effi-
cient hair restorer, is guaranteed to
permanently remove dandruff in two
weeks, or your druggist will give you
your money back
Parsian Sage stops falling hair-it
prevents the hair from fading.
1t is the best beautifier for ladies'
hair as it makes harsh, lusterless hair
fluffy, soft and beautiful, and is not
sticky or greasy.
Partisan Sage is sold and rigidly
guaranteed by Hays & Field. Price
