CASH BOY LOOKING
LIKE EARLY RESULTS

A message to the local offices Of
the Tonopah Mining and Leasing
company announced on Saturday that
the shaft is S65 feet in depth, says
the Salt Lake Tribune, and 1t was the
shaft which cut the vein recently at
the S20foot level Conditions point
TO the fact that another vein should
be encountered within a short dis
lance and taking into consideration
the difference in elevation between
the Cash Boy and Tonopah Merger
shafts, the vein should be near, for
the Merger got the same vein at a
depth Of $50 feet.
The Cash Boy may have 30 or 40
feet more to drive, but this distance
can be covered quickly.
There is a strong probability that
there will be a consolidation effected
shortly between the leasing company
and the parent or owning company
negotionations for which are now
under way. The parent company is
known as the Cash Boy Mining com

GARDEN SAGE DARkENS GRAY HAIR
SO NATURALLY NOBODY GAN TELL

This can always be depended upon
to bring back the natural color and
lustre Of your hair and is the best
thing known to remove dandruff, stop
scalp itching and falling hair.
Everybody chooses "Wyeth's' Sage
and Sulphur because it dafkens so
naturally and evenly that nobody can
tell It has been applied. You simply
dampen a sponge or soft brush and
draw this through the hair, taking
one small strand at time which re-
quires but a few moments. Do this
at night and by morning the gray
hair has disappeared and after an
other application it becomes beautiful
~ dark and appears glossy, lustrous
and abundant 1t certainly helps
