BRINGS BIG PRICE

LONDON.-At the Baltic shipping
exchange several weeks ago the ad-
miralty auctioneer paid a compliment
10 the United States registry when Of
fering the prize steamer "Maracas"
for sale. He said he had never had
he privilege of offering for sale a
vessel of the United States registry
and in this case the registry should
make the vessel worth more than If
she had been registered under any
otner flag. There would be no bond
REQUIRED as was the case with other
prize vessels.
This was evidently a good bait, for
the steamer was sold in three min
utes from the first bid OF S125.000 for
S1500O0 to a Norwegian owner.

FEW FOLKS HAVE
GRAY HAIR NOW
Well-known local druggist says every
body is using old-time recipe Of
Sage Tea and Sulphur

Hair that loses its color and lustre,
or when it fades, turns gray, dun and
Ilfeless, is caused by a lack of sui
phur in the hair Our grandmother
made up 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 attractive, use only this
old-time recipe.
Nowadays we get this famous mix
ture by asking at any drug store for
5O.cent bottle of "Wyeth's Sage and
Sulphur Compound" which darkens
the hair so naturally, so evenly that
nobody can possibly tell 1t has been
applied. Besides, it takes off dand-
ruff, stops scalp itching and falling
hair. You just dampen a sponge or
soft brush with IT and draw this
through your hair. taking one small
strand at a time BY morning the
gray hair disappears; but what de.
Hphts the ladies with Wyeth's Sage
and Sulphur is that. besides beauti-
fully darkening the hair after a few
applications, Il also brings back the
gloss and lustre and gives it an ap-
pearance Of abundance-Advertise-

The La veta Tunnel Fire.

Relative to the La Veta tunnel fire,
yesterdays Alamosa Courier says:
Conditions last night indicated
that the fire must simply be allowed
to burn itself out and as the tunnel
is of some size it is thought there
will be no chance of entering It to
clear away the debris for matter Of
48 hours or more.
The cause of the fire is net known
for a certainty, but it is surmised
that sparks from the engine Of
Wednesday mornings inbound train
from Denver were responsible.
Allowing two days for the fire to
die out, 1t is not thought that new
ties can be set, the track relaid and
the timbering and supports renewed
in less than weeks time and some
railroad men even predict that It
will be a month before the regular
service can be resumed over the La
ia pass line
No figures were given out as to
The probable amount Of damage to
the tunnel in dollars and cents but
it is said the cost Of reconstruction
will be considerable, running into the
ten thousands.
