DON 7 PULL OUT
THE GRAY HAIRS
A Few Applications of a Simple
Remedy viii Bring Back
the Natural Color.

'tPull out one gray hair and dozen
will take its place" is an old saying,
which is, to great extent, true, IL no
steps are taken to stop the cause. When
gray hairs appear it is a sign that Ma
ture needs assistance. 1t Is Natures
call for help. Gray hair, dull, lifeless
hair, or hair that is falling out, is not
necessarily sign of advancing age, for
there are thousands of elderly people
with perfect heads of hair without
single streak of gray.
When gray hairs come, or when the
hair seems to be lifeless or dead, some
good, reliable hair-restoring treatment
should be resorted to at once. Special
lists say that one of the best prepare
tons to use is the old-fashioned "sage
tea" which our grandparents used. The
best preparation of this kind is Wyeth's
Sage and Sulphur Hair Remedy, prep
aration of domestic sage and sulphur,
scientifically compounded with later dis
covered hair tonics and stimulants, the
whole mixture being carefully balanced
and tested by experts.
Wyeth' Sage and Sulphur is clean and
wholesome and perfectly harmless. II
refreshes dry, parched hair, removes
dandruf and gradually restores faded
or gray hair to its natural color.
Don't delay another minute. Start
using Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur at
once and see what a difference few
DAYS treatment will make in your hair.
This preparation is offered to the
public at fifty cents a bottle, and Is
recommended and sold by all druggists.

SKIN OF A BADGER.
So Loose the Animal Can Almost Turn
Around In II

Around In II.
The pelt of ar adult badger is ex-
tremely thick and difficult for a biting
adversary to penetrate. writes a trap
per in Fur News. and so loosely does
the skin cover the body that the animal
is able TO turn almost around in its
hide.
Should a dog acquire a hold on the
throat the badger turns himself so that
the dogs grip is on the back of the
badgers neck without having loosened
his first hold. Then the badger secures
a viselike grip upon some vulnerable
portion Of his enemy, and while his
long tusks penetrate to the limit he
digs and scratches with his front feet,
which are furnished with claws almost
as formidable and deadly as might be
expected from an anteater of the dark
continent.
He who has removed the pelt Of a
badger and is at all observing does not
wonder at this animal being sharp bit

bulldog tenacity when the formation
and adjustment OF his jaws are noted.

to be selling wheat abroad, but very
little news reaches the public. Both

to be shy. Some corn has been touch

bullish, but products are 20 per cent

AS THEY CHOOSE

Calgary, Jan. 6-President Eckstorm
will call a meeting of the Alberta sec
ton Of the Western Canada league
for Thursday. January II, in Cal
gary. at which he will have represen-
tatives of the Alberta clubs. At the
meeting plans for the formation of the
Alberta league will be discussed and a
decision reached regarding the disposal
of the territorial rights of Winnipeg
and Brandon.
President Eckstorm stated last night
that it was his idea to call the AL
berta league the Western Canada
league. to give Winnipeg and Brandon
their franchises when they pay up
their Indebtedness to the league and to
allow the eastern clubs to do what
they please in regard to their fran
chises and form themselves into an in
dependent league if they wished.
Mr.. Eckstorm doe o believe in the
feasibility of trying to run the West
ern Canada league in two sections and
thinks that the leagues should be alb
solutely independent.
The final meeting for closing up the
affairs of the old Western Canada
league will be held in Moose Jaw aft
er the Alberta clubs have decided upon
"a policy.
