Remedy Saved Her Child Try 1t Free

There are literally thousands of
women in this country who CRATE
fully acknowledge that they owe
the present good health of their
children to the timely use of DIR.
CaldwelPs Syrup Pepsin. The cry
ing baby usually is constipated or
suffers from intestinal trouble due
to some error in diet. 1t needs no
heroic measures-just gentle lax
alive like Syrup Pepsin. A small
dose of it will right the baby. 1t is
a great laxative and digestant,
pleasant. tasting and non-griping.
No baby or child refuses it. Many
mothers never give their children
anything else, and they have robust
children and no doctors bills. It
is a great money saver as we'll as a
great life saver. If space permitted,
thousands of women's addresses
could be given who write they will
never be without Syrup Pepsfn in
the house. 1t Is for all the family
for anyone who realizes that salts
and strong cathartics are only tenn
porary expedients. You can buy a
bottle of your favorfte druggist at
fifty cents and one dollar, or If
you wish to make a trial of it first,
you can obtain a free sample bot
tie from DR.. Caldwell by sending
him your name and address.

1T WILL NOT DO.
County Commissioners Approve the
Dixie Report.

In their report, which will be issued
Friday the county commissioners
have virtually agreed to endorse ev-
cry finding of the KaW dixie investi-
eating committee and insist that V. r.
Parkhurst, county engineer, keep one
eye on the $113. 900 job. The report of
the investigating committee Was filed
with the commissioners Tuesday
In their findings, the committee
left no uncertainty as to the trouble
with the big concrete wall. Just as
had been stated in the State Journal
last week and reported by property
owners in the flood district the con-
crete was poorly mixed. The COM
mittee brought this mater out clearly
in their statement.
Then, too, the committee said that
the big gravity miXer-Which it seems
really did not miX-must giVeplace to a
rotary machine that does real work.
This mixer is blamed for much of the
trouble in the construction of the big
dixie. Perhaps, the committee said,
everyone thought the mixer was a
good machine-but they guessed
badly.
As. a further cause of trouble the
committee pointed to the fact that the
county engineer had not spent enough
time experimenting the work and
that his diligence in keeping inspec-
tors on the job was subject to ques-
ton. They thought, perhaps, Mr..
H1lSHL uSNOI6 more IlUl6 To
the job and arrive at better under
standing of the real trouble. One of
the big sources of trouble seemed to
be in the appointment of an efficient
corps of inspectors from the county
engineers office.
The committee also pointed to the
fact that the plans and specifications
call for crushed stone in the construc-
tion. This report criticised the use
of Joplin chat. Engineers Brown and
Mead; who conducted the investi-
cation, were certain that the use of
stone in the wall would result in a
much better job for the district than
where chat is used.
The county commissioners have vir-
tually agreed to endorse every senti-
ment expressed in the report The
board is in session this week as a
board of equalization and cannot take
official notice of the trouble until the
regular meeting next Friday. At this
time, the commissioners will go on
record concerning the work.
An order, which will probably be
adopted, was drafted by the board to-
day. That order is as follows:
recommendations approved. with
respect to the use of native stone in
stead of Joplin chat, mixing process
and inspection; and it is hereby order
ed that native stone be used by Jones
brothers, contractors, or a mixture OF
stone and chat. That County En-
gineer Parkhurst be instructed and
ordered to observe more rigid inspec-
ton of the work and that the rotary
batch mixing process be used instead
of the gravity mixing process"
None of the mem bers of the county
board would go on record this morn
ang concerning the prospective action
of the board relative to the work
which has already been completed.

ARRANGE TO
ADVERTISE
NORTHWEST
A SPECIAL TRAIN OF 10 CARS,
CARRYING COUNTRY'S PRO-
DUCTS TO BE SENT EAST
WILL ADVERTISE 10 STATES.

Definite plans to send a special
train of 10 cars advertising the ad-
yantages and resources of the West
on a tour of the East are being made
by a committee of five members Of the
Western Development League, which
concluded its sessions at the Com
mercial Club, at Portland, yesterday
1t is proposed to allow each Of the
10 states represented sufficient space
to fill half car, and to display the
products that will present the re-
spective states in their proper capa-
bilities of enriching the prospective
settler of the East.
According to the tentative plan
outlined at yesterdays session five
cars will be devoted to display pur-
poses, two for the accommodation oil
the lecturers and advertising repre-
sentatives, who will travel with the
train, two for conveyance Of baggage
and supplies, and one as a diner.
The cooperation of the San Fran
cisco Worlds Fair Commission will
fulfill the combined purpose of ex-
plotting the Western states and ad-
vertising the exposition that will be
held in the Bay City in 1915.
If possible the governor of each
state represented will become a mem
ber of the party. The railroads will
join in the movement and will ar
range to send the train over the
Eastern roads at the lowest possible
legal rates. Officials of the North
western lines represented at the
meeting promised their hearty sup
port.
It is likely that the special train
will be started from Omaha, as Ne
braska Is to be the easternmost state
represented on the train. The exhib-
its Of the other state swill be taken
there.
An itinerary has not been worked
out, but it is proposed to cover as
much as possible of the Middle West
and the central belt of states between
the Mississippi river and the Atlantic
ocean. New York City will be visited
At the end of the tour the train
will be taken to one of the big East
ern land shows, intact, where 1T will
become a part of the exhibit OF the
Pacific coast and the West.
The expense, when distributed ovel
group of 10 wealthy states, will moi
be heavy.

SAGE FOR DARKENING THE
HAIR.

There is nothing new about the idea OF
using sage for restoring the color of the
hair. Our great-grandmother kept their
locks soft, dark and glossy by using a
sage tea" Whenever their hair fell out
or took on dull, faded or streaked ap-
pearance, they made brew of sage
leaves and applied it to theiV hair with
wonderfully beneficial effect. Nowadays
we don't have to resort to the old-time,
tiresome method Of gathering the herbs
and making the brew. This is done by
Bkillful chemists better than VIC could do
1t ourselves, and all we have to do is to
call for the ready made product. Wyeth's
Sage and Sulphur, containing sage in the
proper strength, with the addition Of
Sulphur, another old-time scalp remedy.
This preparation is sold by all first-class
druggists for SOC. and $1.00 bottle, or
is sent direct by the Wyeth Chemical
Company, "a Cortlandt St., New GYork
