HOW EUROPEAN NATIONS GOT SLICES OF CHINA

Germany's acquisition Of Kiauchau
followed closely upon the acquisition
Of areas of interest and spheres Of
influence in China TO foreign powers.
Until 1895 no foreign power aside
from the Portuguese and English had
been allowed to hold possession on
or near the coast of China. Japan
acquired Formosa by treaty in that
year; Russia secured a concession for
the Manchurian railway and France
obtained a rectification of the frontier

For instance, the first detachment
of uhlans that entered the city of Lille
was guided by a man who had left his
job as superintendent of an important
factory in the city to rejoin his regi-
ment.
At scissors, when objections were
raised to the exacting proportions Of
the acquisitions, the commanding Off
Ger called his aide, who turned out to
be a well-known business man of the
town, who, of course, knew its re-

/ Similar instances were reported
from Belgium, showing that every
inch of the ground had been carefully
studied; the ready money in every
town estimated; every suitable horse
and every ton of hay located, and the
plans of every bridge drawn up. In
France their statistics went so far as
to show how many bottles Of wine
might be expected in each locality.

White Caps Mine
Filling With W ater

The White Caps mine is rapidly
being flooded owing to the lcasers
having pulled their pumps Tuesday
night after a few hours notice, which
was not sufficient for the company
to provide a new set of pumps.
Since the annual meeting there has
been considerable friction between
tie minority and majority factions
in the board OF directors. The for
nrer represented the ~leaser, who had
beer operating the mine and owed
the equipment on the surface, includ-
ins hoist, pumps and mill. The Ill
rcctors were asked to buy the i'm

price asked was $4,000, which the
majority of the board thought vas
toe much. and therefore reused to
entertain the proposition. In pulling

FOLKS HAVE
. GRAY HAIR NOW
Well.known local druggist .ays every.
body is using old-titne recipe Of
Sage Tea and Sulphur.

Hair that loses its color and lustre, or
when it fades, turns gray, dull and life
less, is caused by q lack Of sulphur in the
hair. Our grandmother made up a mix
ture of Sage Tea and Sulphur to keep
her locks dark and beautiful, and thou
sands OF women and men who value that
even color, that beautiful dark shade Of
hair which is so attractive, use only this
old-time recipe.
Nowadays we get this famous mixture
by asking at any drug store for u so
cent bottle OF "Wycth's Sage and Sui
phur Hair Remedy" which darkens the
hair 30 naturally. so evenly, that nobody
can possibly tell it has been applied. Re-
sides, it takes on dandrnti, stops scalp
itching and falling hair. You just
.dampen u sponge or soft brush with it
and draw this through your hair, taking
one small strand at a time. By morn
ing the gray hair disappears; but what
delights the ladies with Wyeth's Sage
and Sulphur is that. besides beautifully
darkening the hair after u few aprlica-
tons, II also brings hack the gloss aud
lustre and gives it an appearance Of
abundance. -. >t..l"'#' =
