FAST CONTEST is

Trims William and Vashti
SO to 25.

Augustana kept up its unbroken line
o. victories over William and Vashti
college of Aledo by defeating the lat
ter in a hard fought game last night
by the score of SO to %. The contest
was fast and furious throughout and
was much closer than the score would
indicate. Until few minutes of the
close Of the game the blue and gold
was only few points in the lie. but
sudden squirt toward the finish gave
the locals a decided advantage.
The Lutherans jumped into the lead
from the blow of the whistle and we're
never headed by the Vashti men
Deadly basket shooting by w Swed-
berg kept the big end of the score on
AUgustana's side throughout the first
session, the half ending 10 to Is in
| favor of the blue and gold
The Aledo collegians came back
with a rush in the second half and al
one time came within two points Of
! tying the score. Only the strong
guarding of Anderson and Andreen
prevented them from making more
Roadway. When Swedberg got under
way, however, the contest was never
in doubt. In this half the speedy
/ Augie forward slipped seven baskets
through the ring, for a total of IA
points
/ With six minutes yet TO slay, r. Nc
/ Laughlin, Vashti's hard-jumping cen

Laughlin was the unfortunate victim

DON 7 PULL OUT
THE CRAY HAIRS
A Few Applications Of a Simple
Remedy VIII Bring Back
the Natural Color.

'Pull out one gray hair and a dozen
will take its place is an old saying,
which is, to & great extent, true, if no
steps are taken to stop the cause. When
gray hairs appear it is a sign that Ma
tUre needs assistance. II is Natures
call for help. Gray hair, dull, Efeless
hair, or hair that is falling out, is not
necessarily a sign Of advancing age, for
there are thousands of elderly people
with perfect heads of hair without 6
single streak of gray.
When gray hairs come, or when the
hair seems to be ifelass or dead, some
good, reliable hair-restoring treatment
shosld be rc5orted to at once. Special
lists say that one of the best prepare
tons TO use is the old-fashioned "saCe
tea" which our grandparents used. The
best preparation Of this kind is Wyeth' 8
Sage and Sulphur Hair Remedy, prep
araCion Of domestic sage and sulphur,
scientifically compounded with later dis
covered hair tones and stinulants, the
whole fixture being carefully balanced
and tesIS,l by experts.
Wyeth's SAGE and Sulphur is clean ard
wholesome and perfectly harmless. II
refreshes dry, parched hair, removes
dand-Cf and gradually restores faded
or gray hair II its natural color.
Don't delay another minute. Start
Gsiag Wyeth's Sage end Sulphur al
once and sea what difference c few
DAYS treatment VIII make in your hair.
This preparation IS offered to the
/ public ct fifty cents q bottle, and is
/ recommended ard sold by all druggists.

Clearwater, may be criticised at
home for his action in voting for
Brady, but the fact is he is doing
the only thing that may ultimate
ly lead to the election of man
from the north. In case Brady
can not get it, if the north can
agree on the right man, much of
his strength will follow Chandler to
the northern man when the break

dog-in-the-manger spirit that has
)een shown by the candidates
from the north will probably re
suit in the election Of Governor
Brady. The attempt Of Senator
Hart to throw the mormon sup
port to Ailshie Saturday, will
probably put the Judge out Of the
