GRANDMOTHER
USED SAGE TEA
To Darker the Hair and Restore
Gray and, Faded Hair to It's
Natural Color

It is easier to preserve the colo,
of the hair than to restore it, al
though it is possible to do both. Our
grandmother understood the secret
They made usage tea" and their
dark, glossy hair long after middle
life was due to this fact. Our moth
ers have gray hairs before they are
fifty, but they are beginning to ap-
preciate the wisdom of our grand
mothers in using "sage tea" for thelr
hair and are fast following suit. :.
The present generation has the ad-
vantage of the past in that it can
get a ready-to-use preparation CALI
ed Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Hair
Remedy. AS a scalp tonic and color
restorer this PREPARATION is vastly SUI
perior to the ordinary "sage tea"
made by our grandmothers.
The growth and beauty of the hair
depends on a healthy condition of
the scalp. Weyth's Sage and Sulphur
Hair Remedy quickly kills the dand-
ruff germs which rob the hair of It's
life, color and lustre, makes the scalp
clean and healthy, gives the hair
strength, color and beauty. and
makes it grow.

tual value for $4,000 is all that the
stock would bring on the open mar
ket. The correct assessment in such
case would have been $4,000 Of fif-
ty per cent of the actual value.
In many counties, of which St.
Louis can be cited for an example,
stocks are assessed at twenty-five per
cent of their cost which is taken as
invoice plus freight. This is the
same as fifty per cent of the actual
value since no allowance is made for
shrinkage in value. So $4,000
stock in Virginia is assessed $4,000,
while the same stock here has been
assessed $4,000. The difference is
in the mistake of basis made by the
assessors. ....
The county board of equalization
is considered composed of fair mind

sessments. They are at least entitled
to fair hearing when they appear

Time to Act.

On Monday night the city council
will hear the second reading of the
ordinance which proposes to regulate
dance halls and theaters in Bemidii
and it will be at this time that
amendments will be proposed and
voted on. Since the first reading of
the ordinance July Is, there has been
much discussion of it's features and
the city appears to be somewhat d.
vided over the questions involved.
From comment which has come to
the Pioneer, it seems that the main
issue will be whether or not theaters
should be allowed to operate on Sun
day. It is rumored that one amend
ment will be offered changing the
ordinance to read so that theaters
without vaudeville may operate on
Sunday night. These and other ques-
tions will be considered Monday.
While the Pioneer believes that
the theaters would lose nothing f.
nancially by the closing of the thea
ters on Sunday evening, yet it has
realized that there are two sides of
the question and does not want to
be unfair.
The only way in which the citizens
can make plain their wishes is to let
the councilmen known how they
stand. It is said that petitions are
being circulated asking that the thea
tiers be left open on Sundays. Those
who wish them closed should get out
petitions tonight, Sunday and Mon
day so that the issue may be joined
Monday night. Space in the Pioneer
is available for arguments for both
sides and any letters of not over 100
words which are sent in will be
printed.
The real issue is deeper than the
financial question which appears on
the surface. 1t is the question of the
moral effect on the youth of the city
and hasty action should be avoided
by careful consideration of all an
giles of the problem.

Wrong Assessment Basis.

Investigation into the recent in
creases in assessments made by the
supervisors brings to light at least
one fact that stands out with start
ling distinctness. They have based
their assessments on a wrong business
principle.
In the spring the county assessors
met and decided to levy on fifty per
cent of the value of real estate and
personal property. AS far as that de-
cision goes, no business man can find
nor is finding fault with it. The
whole trouble lies in the basis used
by the assessors while working I'M
der the resolution.
When valuing a stock, the asses
sors took the invoice value plus the
freight as the actual value in the
store. That is wrong for the simple
reason that as soon as stock is
unpacked, or even before it has been
taken from the original cases,
it shrinks in value from forty
five to sixty per cent. 1t is
true that the stock cost the invoice
plus the freight, but that is not it's
value
Any man who has ever been mer-
chandiser knows that when stock
is put up for sale, it seldom brings
over fifty cents on the dollar. In
fact, the highest price at which a
stock ever changed hands in Be-
midi was fifty-6ve cents, The price
ranged downward all the way, to ten
cnets. This simply means that the
average cash value of stock is fifty
per cent of it's invoice value.
In other words: If a merchant
buys $4,000 worth of goods and
puts them into a Bemidji store, the
stock is only worth $4,000. For if
he was forced to sell it the next
day, the best he could get for it would
be fifty cents on the dollar. His
stock shows a. dead loss of fifty per
cent simply because it is now second
hand. I.. j.. >>'I -.=---.
The mistake made by the asses
sors is that they have taken $4,000
stocks and assessed them for $4,000.
This is really 100 per cent of it's ac-

In tallying up the votes it was

Y Mr.. and Mrs. Henry Willard
moved to Golden the first of the
week. They had recently moved
into the Roach property on Grand
view avenue and liked Arvada
very much, but rather than have
their Scotch Collie dog killed they
moved away. 1t seems that some
one made complaint to the town
board that the dog had bitten
them and the board ordered the
animal killed or removed from
town within twenty-four hours.
The owners claim that the doc
tor examined the child that was
supposed to have been bitten but
could find no marks of the dogs
teeth. 1t seems a shame to lose
a family from Arvada in such a
manner-Why couldn't the dog
have been muzzled or kept tied
up if he was really dangerous?
1t seems as though it were some
peoples nature to be always
kicking about something, and in
all probability the child was more
frightened than hurt, as the dog
did not have the reputation of
being cross.

to appear at the trial.
