SAN ANTONIO WANTS
THE 1878 REUNION
WOULD HAVE VETERANS NEE !
THERE ON SAN JAClNTo DAY,
APRIL p.

San Antonio, Texas, May I'm the
effort being made by San Antonio
to hiring here in 1913 the annual
reunion of the Confederate Veterans
there is not 80 much the actuatng
motive of wishing TO entertain
large number of visitors, although
loyal citizenship would justify sucn
a motive. as il is the wish to have
as guests the veterans who sacriflced
much for the south. San Antonio
has for two centuries been a battle
field for contending forces, a coun-
try bright with flowers, warmed
by the bright sunshine and cooled
by the gulf breezes, where the eco
ple live most of the year out OF
doors and the pleasures OF life are
abundant. San Antonio is the home
Of the Alamo, where several hun
dred brave Texans, including Crock
EFT. Travis, Bowie and Milan, gave
their lives in the effort to stop the
advance of an invading Mexican host
under Santa Anna. The ruins of the
Alamo and other missions erected by
Spanish soldiers Of the cross that
first brought Christianity and civi
lization into the country still art
well preserved, interesting reminders
Of the lives of the early pioneers.
At the Reunion TO be held in Ma
con, Ga, May 6-S, an invitation will
be extended to the Confederate Vet
erans to meet in San Antonio il
1913 during the week beginning Apri
q. That day is the anniversary o
the Battle of San JaCinto, when Tex
as independence was won, and Tex
ans gather in San Antonio each yea
to celebrate il with a fiesta wh:cl
is known as the Fiesta San Jacinto

SAGE TEA WILL
DARKEN THE HAIR
RESTORE FADED AND GRAY HAIR
TO NATURAL COlOR-DAND-
RUFF QUICKLY REMOVED.

There is nothing new about the
idea of using Sage for restoring the
color OF the hair Our grandmothers
Kept their hair dark, glossy and abun
dant by the use OF a simple Sage
Tea" Whenever their hair fell out
or took on a dull, faded or streaked
appearance, they made a brew of
Sage leaves, and applied it to their
hair with wonderfully beneficial et-
feet.
Nowadays We don't have to resort
to the old-time tire some method OF
gathering the herbs and making the
tea. This is done by skillful chem
lists better than we could do It our.
selves; and all We have to do is to
call for the ready-made product, Wy
eth's Sage and Sulphur Hair Remedy
This preparation gives youthful
| color and beauty TO the hair, and is
one of the best remedies you can
use for dandruff, dry, itching scalp
and falling hair. Get a fifty cent
bottle from your druggist today, and
You will be surprised at the quick
results. All druggists sell il, under
guarantee that the money will be

SPRINGER FARMER TALKS.
More Corn, Wheat and Oats and Less
Cotton Means Fewer Mortgages.

s. w. Terry VINO was in from
Springer yesterday says that he
never saw prospects finer for a big
crop of everything. Mr.. Terry is an
old Texas farmer and when asked
what he thought of this country as
being suited for a more diversified
style of farming said that the sooner
the Oklahoma farmer got out of the
an-cotton rut the better he would be.
Mr.. Terry formerly operated a
threshing rig in Texas right in the
wheat belt and he says that there is
no doubt in his mind that this sec
tion will raise just as fine wheat as
will be raised in any section any
where. He says that there are sew
eral hundred acres in the neighbor-
hood of Springer that looks as fine as
any wheat that he ever saw any
where.
This wheat. ne thinks, will thresh
on an average of thirty bushels to
the acre. Oats will run, he says,
Judging from the present outlook,
from fifty to sixty-five bushels to
the acre.
Alfalfa, Mr. Terry stated, never
looked better than it does this spring
in the Springer neighborhood. LET
our farmers devote more acres to
wheat, corn. oats and alfalfa" the
gentleman said in conclusion. "and

flowers from Miss Julia Ellen,
of Hot Springs, S. D..

Harrison County is a dry
county and evidently some of
the citizens of the county get
exceedingly dry at times, but
when they return from Council
Bluffs and Omaha they some
times have quenched their
thirst to such a degree that
they are unfit to pass along the
highways, while some seem to
still have a dry spot that they
are trying to have reached.
Such people are unfit to be on
the public roads on foot, much
less to be turned loose with
an automobile. Last Satu:d ~
evening (before dark a party
of three young men passed
through st. John on their way
towards the north part of the
county and all were in a very
we'll advanced state Of intoxi-
cation. They were running
their auto at about forty to
forty five miles per hour pay
ing no attention to cross roads,
bridges or turns in the road ev-
cry one had to step out of their
way or take the consequences,
and in a place or two around
some curves in the roads it
took rather lively stepping to
get a team and buggy out Of
their way as they used about
all of the road. 1t was only a
mere chance that someone was
not bodily injured or killed.
Constable McGavren. says the
next time such a thing occurs
the telephone will be in use and
the party will be met at. Mo.

to have it moved and cleaned
up in the near future.
