the hope of the directors. through a
special summer rate of 81 for five
months April. May, June. July and

make it the bound duty of each mem
ber to secure one member. As many

day.
During the last few days eight
boys have joined the association, and
IL that rate keeps up long there will
be no need of a membership cam
paign. Every effort will be made to
make the summer program one of
great interest to the boys in regard
to hikes, picnics. social functions and
gay times, rs well as an opportunity
for study.

THE COAL SACK IN THE SKY.

II Is Visible Only Because Il Contains
Nothing That 10 Visible.
Immediately below the lower stars
Of the group which forms the Southern
Cross there is a black patch in the sky.
dark. sack shaped and mysterious.
Scientifically accurate astronomers ex-
plain that 1t is not a patch. but rather
something which becomes visible BY
reason Of the anomaly that it contains
nothing that is visible.
The lay mind, preferring bald reality
TO abstract truth, Is somewhat startled
70 learn that an object IL seen because
there is nothing in It to see. but no one
can dispute the fact. The coal sack Is
visible because it contains nothing that
is visible
In other words, it is q vast hole IN
the stellar system in which there Is not
even a pinch OF stellar dust to shed q
flicker Of luminosity. It is typicaIly
and absolutely the Quintessencs OF
blackness.
Because II is so and IN contradiction
of all preconceived notions the human
eye can see It without the aid Of 9
telescope or other instrument.
Between the stars of the Milky way
there are many little holes in the stel'
lar system-little by comparison, that
is to say-but one must have telescopes
and patience to Ind them. One need
only cross the line to the southern
hemisphere and locate the Southern
Cross In order to see the coal sack.

When Buttons Were Unknown.

How did the world manage for cen
turtles without buttons? In early ages
they were unknown. The NoluminOus
garments Of oriental races are still at
tached to their wearers by means OF
straps, as were those OF the Greeks and
Romans. The NOrmans were respon-
sible for the invention. The etvmology
of the word points 10 the derivation of
the idea. Bout, an end or extremity,
and bouter. to push, show that the
button was originally a push piece. like
the buttons of our modern electric
bells. The Normans probably. conceiv-
ed the iden from the rough knots of
their furniture. on which most likely
they hung their garments Once in
troduced, buttons came rapidly into
common use.

YOUR GRAY HAIRS
QUICKLY VANISH
a Harmless Remedy Made
from Garden Sage, Restores
Color to Gray Hair.

A feeling Of sadness accompanies the
discovery of the first gray hairs which
unfortunately are looked upon as heralds
of advancing age. Gray hair, however
handsome it may be, makes q person
look old. We all know the advantages
Of being young. Aside from the good
impression youthful appearance makes
on others, simply knowing that you are
''looking fit" gives one courage to
undertake and accomplish things. So
why suffer the handicap of looking old
on account Of gray hairs, when q simple
remedy will give your hair youthful
color and beauty in a few days time
Most people know that common gar
den sage acts as @ color restorer and
scalp tonic as well. Our grandmothers
used a Sage Tea" for keeping their
hair dark, soft and luxuriant. In
Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Hair Remedy
we have an ideal preparation of Sage,
combined with Sulphur and other valua-
BILE remedies for dandruff, itching scalp
and thin, weak hair that is split at the
ends or constantly coming out. A few
applications Of this valuable remedy
will bring back the color, and in q short
time IL will remove every trace of dan
druH and greatly improve the growth
and appearance Of the hair.
Get o fifty cent bottle from your
druggist today, and notice the difference
IN your hair after q few days treat
ment- All druggists sell IL, under guar
hntee that the money will be refunded IL
the remedy is not exactly as represented
