A little OF the swamp has been
drained and cleared and Il devoted to
agriculture. Some say al much az

Ages ago the Dismal Swamp was a
part Of the ocean floor. The upheayal
that lifted 1t to the surface left It ly-

George Washington headed the first
project for draining the Dismal
Swamp. and organized company for
that purpose shortly after the close OF
the Revolution. A narrow canal was
dug to Lake Drummond, and IL still

CHAPEAU;
CREATES UPROAR

Righteously indignant, Magistrate
@. ]. Smith caused quite an uproar
this morning when he learned that
his stiff hat had been nabbed from its
customary nail in the court room in
the police station and taken away by
some one who must have been sadly
in need of a chapeau. But anyhow,
the "cady'' is missing and the mag
istrate Is wearing a beautifully tinted
brown derby, the while he is search
ing for the one which usually be-
comes his curly head. Whether some
hobo who was in need of a lid per-
petrated the theft or whether he is
the victim of some joker, the magis-
trate knows not. He wore Chief
RIinn's hat home at noon and dis
carded the bonnet in his woodshed.
AS a result, two are shy on hats,
while some one is long on one.

The complainant in the case is Frank

ties which arose between the princi-

had been exchanged.

MANUEL TO WED COUSIN;

Paris, March 18.-The secret
clause in the Dover treaty between
Dom Miguel, the pretender to the
throne of Portugal, and the former
King Manuel is to the effect that the
latter should marry Princess Eliza

former pretender. Thus the ex-king
of Portugal will become a brother-in-
law to Anita Stewart, and Mrs. James
Henry Smith, widow of "Silent"
Smith, and will thus form a remote
connection with royalty, which, how
ever, will not be sufficiently close to
induce her to put up money for the
cause. Princess Elizabeth is Is
years old and Manuel %. Manuel
has been forbidden to pass through
Paris on his way to Austria through

SAGE:'TEA WILL
,DARKEN The HAIR
Restore Faded and Gray Hair
to Natural CoIor--Dandruffl
Quickly Removedl

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 abundant by the use of
a simple "Sage Tea" Whenever their
hair fell out or took on a dull, faded or
streaked appearance, they made brew
of Sage leaves, and applied it to their
hair with wonderfully beneficial effect.
Nowadays we don't have to resort to
the old-time tiresome method of gather
ing the herbs and making the tea. This
Is done by skillful chemists better than
we could do it ourselves; and all we
have to do is to call for the ready-made
product, Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur
Hair Remedy, containing Sage in the
proper strength, with the addition of
Sulphur, another old-time scalp remedy.
This preparation gives youthful color
and beauty to the hair, and is one of
the best remedies you can use for dan
druf, dry, feverish, itching scalp, and
falling hair. Get a fifty cent bottle
from your druggist today, and you will
be surprised at the qaick results. All
druggists sell it, under guarantee that
! the money viii be refunded if the
remedy is not exactly ss rsuresented.
