GRANDMOTHER
USED SAGE TEA

1t is easier to preserve the color of
the hair than to restore it, although
it is possible to do both. Our grand
mothers understood the secret. They
made a "sage tea" and their dark,
glossy hair long after middle life was
due to this fact. Our mothers have
gray hairs before they are fifty, but
they are beginning to appreciate the
wisdom of our grardmothers in US
ing sage tea" for their hair and are
fast following suit
The present generation has the ad-
vantage of the past in that it can get
a readytouse preparation called
Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Hair Rem
edy. AS a scalp tonic and color re-
storer this preparation is vastly supe-
rior to the ordinary sage tea" made
by our grandmothers.
This remedy is sold under guaran-
tee that the money will be refunded
if it fails to do exactly as represent
ed.
If your hair is losing color or com,
ing out, start using Wyeth's Sage and
sulphur today and see what a change
it will make in few days time
This preparation is offored to the
public at fifty cents a bottle and i.
recommended and sold by specia
agent, Pendleton Drug Co.

(From Fridays Journal)
There was a firmer tone and higher
prices in the sheep market at North
Portland today. Some stock that was
carried over sold at an advance of
10c over former top figures. While
the price itself was an advance of
25c over previous figures, the stock
was sold off cars therefore meaning
that 1t would have brought really 15c
less than this on the fill.
There were arrivals of 447 head re-
ported in the mutton division of the
local market today and on this day
a week ago only a handful of stock
came forward, and that was a contract
lot
One big lot of feeders that arrived
yesterday was not sold until this
morning but it brought a good price.
The lot consisted Of 991 wethers and

1t is the duty OF every expectant
mother to prepare her system for the
coming of her little one; to avoid as
far as possible the suffering of such
occasions, and endeavor TO pass
through the crisis with her health
and strength unimpaired. This she
may do through the use of Mothers
Friend, remedy that has been SO
long in use, and accomplished so
much good, that it is in no sense an
experiment, but preparation which
always produces the best results. 1t
Is for exernal application and so pen
etrating in its nature as to thoroughly
lubricate every muscle, nerve and ten
don involved during the period before
baby comes. 1t aids nature by ex-
panding the skin and tissues, relieves
tenderness and soreness, and perfectly
prepares the system for natural and
safe motherhood. Mothers Friend
has been used and endorsed by thou
sands of mothers, and its use will
prove a comfort and benefit to any
woman in need of such a remedy.

for the day, the hog market is very
firm at North Portland. There was a
run of 256 head, compared with 155
a week ago. Buyers took hold of
these, and paid 1915 for the tops.
Demand in the hog trade at this
time is confined principally to block
stock, and the larger per cent of the
arrivals are of that class. while in the
central west the call is for heavy pack
ing stock of quality.

Roosevelt Repeats That Such a
Course Would Be Absurd.
His Purpose Served.
"DELIBERATELY FALSE"
HE BRANDS STATEMENTS
Points Out That Inquiry Was
Directed at Him, Instead Of
Explaining for PenroSe.

OYSTER BAY, y. Y, Aug "a
Colonel Roosevelt is not disposed to
take the stand before the senate COM
mittee investigating campaign contri-
buttons. The ex-president feels that
he has made ample explanation of his
action with respect to the standard
Oil gift to the 1904 campaign fund.
Roosevelt regards the investigation
nothing less than FISHING excursion
to gather ammunition for the Demo-
cratic campaign this fall.
Asked today if he would consent to
go before the senate committee, Roose-
welt snapped:
q answered that question three days
ago in WiIkesbare. 1t is absurd to ask
me-" At that time the colonel said
such a thing would be absurd.
The colonel had nothing to add to his
dictated statement Of yesterday re-
garding Penrose and Archbold. He
considers that he had made it clear
that he was bitterly opposed to Stand
ard Oil money being taken in the 1904
campaign He is willing, he says, to
rest upon the letters and the telegram
to George B. Cortelyou forbidding the
acceptance of any Standard Oil con-
tribution.
On the arrival Of Senator Luke Lea,
of Tennessee, today the Clapp COM
mission is expected to decide whether
to go ahead now in its investigation
of political campaign funds or to ad-

The suit was instituted by the bank
on the ground that it is one OF De

his responsibilities. There was no

Though the petition set out that De-

out that he was possessed Of ample

Generally, not much credence was put
in the Chicago theory. Here is the Chi
cago dispatch:
CHICAGO. Aug. 24.-It is feared
here that Noise DeLeon, contractor
of Atlanta, Ga, who came to Chi
cago August I. may have been the
unidentified man who was found
dead in the pathway of an automo-
bile at Twenty street and
Ashland avenue August %.
The description of the Atlanta
business man as furnished the po-
lice by a nephew who arrived here
from New York today tallies with
that of the slain man. DeLeon
carried $4,000 in cash in his pock-
cts and wore jewelry valued at
$4,000 when he was last seen.
on the night of August % a man
was found cut and unconscious
in the street His pockets were
empty His clothing appeared to
have been rifled. A large black
touring car was seen speeding from
the scene of the tragedy 1t IS held
probable that the man may have
been slain by auto bandits and
then left dead in the streets.
A dispatch from Chicago late this
afternoon declared that Mr. DeLeon's
nephew had visited the morgue and
that the body of the automobile victim
there was not Mr.. DeLeon
