SALT A-PLENTY IN PERU.
A Natural Factory That Is Operated
on an Automatic Plan.

a Natural Factory That Is Operated
on an Automatic Plan.
About hundred miles north of
Lima, near the town of HuachO is one
of the great culiOsitieS of nature, a
salt factory on an automatic plan.
When the tide comes in it fills a lot
of shallow basins. and the water is
prevented from flowing back into the
sea by closing the gates. The atmos-
phere is so dry that the water evapo-
rates rapidly and leaves a sediment of
salt in an almost pure state, which is
scraped up. packed into sacks and
shipped to market
Within the coast a little farther the
percolation of sea water through the
porous rocks into pits and hollows has
caused immense deposits of salt TO ac-
cumulate. The salt is taken out in
blocks six or eight inches square and
sod in that form AS soon as the
salt is eXcavated the water comes in
again and in a year or two has solidi-
fed and is ready for the market.
Wells driven into the sand disclose
strongly impregnated water at depth
of twenty-five feet, which seems to be
great deal heavier than the sea wa
ter, and is drawn off into watts for
evaporation.

ing suffrage committee.
Representative Lenroot of Wiscon-
sin, Republican; Representative Eos
ter of Illinois, Democrat; Representa-
tive Campbell of Kansas, Republican,
and Representative Kelly of Pennsyl-
vania, Progressive, voted in favor of
the report. Representatives Iardwick

it.
Representative Lenroot then moved
to report the bill without recommends
ton and all five Democrats voted to
postpone action on this motion.

GRAY HAIR NOW
Druggist Says Ladies Are Using
Recipe of Sage Tea and
Sulphur.

Hair that loses its color and lustre,
or when IL fades, turns gray, dull and
lifeless, is caused by lack of sulphur
in the air. Our grandmother made up
a mixture of Sage Tea and Sulphur to
keep her locks dark and beautiful, and
thousands of women and men who
value that even color. that beautiful
dark shade of hair which is so attrac-
tive, use only this old-time recipe
Nowadays We get this famous mix
ture by asking at any drug store for
50-cent bottle OF "Wyeth's Sage and
Sulphur Compound" which darkens
the hair so naturally, so evenly, that
nobody can possibly tell it has been
applied. Besides, 1t takes or dandruff,
stops scalp itching and falling hair
You just dampen a sponge or soft
brush with 1t and draw this through
your hair, taking one small strand at a
time. BY morning the gray hair dis
appears; but what delights the ladies
with Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur is
that, besides beautifully darkening the
hair after a few applications, 1t also
brings back the gloss and lustre and
gives It an appearance OF abundance.

The opportunity for industrial and
