This case comes upon motion Tor
a new trial both upon the original and
newly discovered evidence, a sharp
conflict of testimony is involved. The
Jury found a verdict in favor of the
plaintiff They had to pass upon the
credibility of the evidence. Their Yer
dict was fully warranted if they be
lieved the plaintiff. as they evidently
did. Upon the original evidence the
verdict cannot be disturbed.
Upon the motion based upon newly
discovered evidence the court is OF
the opinion that 1t does not come
within the rule either as to diligence
or probative force. 1t appears that
the deponent in the newly discovered
evidence was the mother of the plain
tiff's wife, witness for plaintiff, ana
had had conversation with the VII

covered evidence was disclosed. me

seems apparent that this evidence

at the trial as afterwards. Nor are
the force and effect of the alleged
newly discovered evidence sufficient to
REQUIRE the granting of a new trial
If the jury believed the plaintiff the
evidence was ample to sustain YER

WILD LAND SALE.
axes Place at II A. M, Wednesday,
at Office Of State Treasurer.

The sale of wild lands for non-pay-
ment of State, county, and forestry
district taxes for 1909, will take place
at II A. Nj. Wednesday, at the of
flee of The State treasurer, The tracts
to be sold are IA in number and the
taxes upon them aggregate but $40.
1t is likely that the taxes upon a few
of these divisions may be paid between
now and the time advertised fer sale.
In accordance with the provisions of
Chapter 226 eff the Public Laws OF
1909 the state treasurer will act as
auctioneer and the State land agent
will also be present at the sale. The
law now in force makes necessary a
more detailed description of these
parcels of wild lands than formerly,
so that none of the bidders at the
sale, Wednesday, are likely to find
themselves in the same predicament

Gray Hair Makes
You Look Old

How often one hears the expression,
"She is gray and beginning to look
old" 1t is true that gray hair usual
ly denotes age and is always assoeiat-
ed with age. You never hear one re-
ferred to as having gray hair and
looking young.
The hair is generally the index of
age. If your hair is gray, you can't
blame your friends for referring TO
you as looking old. You can't retain
a youthful appearance if you allow
your hair to grow gray. Many per-
sons of middle age jeopardize their
future simply by allowing the gray
hair to become manifest. If your hair
has become faded or gray, try

the name of Wyeth devised few

promote the growth of the hair.
1t is a pleasant dressing for the
hair and after using it few days
itching and dryness of the scalp en-
tirely disappear.
