OUTLAW GANG
STILL AT LARGE
Pursuers Thought They Had
Band Surrounded But Didn't.

Mount Airy, N. c., March 20.-The
Virginia outlaws, who were supposed
to be surrounded by a Gordon of detec-
tives, III as elusive as dangerous, for
so far their natural mountain instinct
and craftiness has enabled them to es-
cape arrest, and just when the officers
think they are ready to close in upon
them they are gone.
Detectives upon reliable information
that Stdna Allen, wounded twice, had
ridden down Squirrels Spur to the foot
Of the mountains readily came to the
conclusion that he had turned west
ward and Joined the other members of
the gang, who are still supposed to be
In hiding in the face of the mountains,
and the feat of surrounding and cap
turing them all at one was put in mo-
ton. The detectives closed In upon
the locality, but never caught sight of
a single outlaw save Sidna Edwards,
who was surprised while eating supper
and made his escape to the foothills.
The failure to locate the outlaws
forces the conclusion that Sidna Allen
instead of turning westward to join his
companions in crime turned eastward,
where the mountains are not SO high,
but more rugged, and where he knows
every inch Of the ground. At the top
of the Squirrels Spur, which Is simply
a mountain path, Allen owns a 200
acre farm.
There is no more daring man on
earth than Sidna Allen, and, unlike his
brother Floyd, who has shot his way
to notoriety and prison, he Is smooth,
discreet, quick and Intelligent. He has
amassed D. fortune by application to
business aud instead of living In a cab
In has resided in the handsomest home
In Carroll county. Va. He Is devoted
to his wife, who is an educated and re-
fned woman, and his children.

THE FIRST GRAY
HAIR SIGN OF ACE
Easy Way to Preserve Natural Color
of the Hair and Make it Grow.

A harmless remedy, made from
common garden sage, quickly re-
stores gray hair to natural color. The
care of the hair, to prevent 1t from
losing its color and lustre, is just as
important as to care for teeth to
keep them from discoloring. Why
spend money for cosmetics and
creams to improve the complexion
gray hair is even more conspicuous
and suggestive of age than wrinkles
or a poor complexion? OF the two,
1T is easier to preserve the natural
color and beauty of the hair than 1t
fs to have a good complexion.
All that is necessary Is the ocea-
sional use of Wyeth's Sage and Sui
phur Hair Remedy. a preparation OF
common garden Sage and Sulphur,
combined with other valuable rem
edies for dry, harsh, faded hair,
dandruff, itching scalp and falling
hair. After a few applications of
this simple, harmless remedy, your
hair will gradually be restored to It's
natural color, In a short time the
dandruf will be removed, and your
hair will no longer come out but will
start to grow as Nature intended IL
should.
Don't neglect your hair, for 1t goes
further than anything else to make
or mar your good looks. You caa~buy
this remedy at any drug store for
fifty cents a bottle, and your drug
gist Will give your money back If
you r not satisfied after using.
Purchase q bottle today. You will
never regret 1t when you realize the
difference 1t Will make In your ap-
pearance.
