1t is an interesting fact that the fish

the banks of the northern coast of
America, and, though they now send
fewer ships, their taste for salt cod
from Newfoundland is unabated-in
fact, it is a national Portuguese dainty.

Great Prehistoric Lake.

The large prehistoric lake which flood
ed number of the valleys of northwest
ern Nevada at very recent geologic
date but has now passed away was
named Lake Iahontan in honor of Baron
la Hontan, one of the early explorers of
the headwaters of the Mississippi The
lake covered approximately s,400 square
miles at its greatest expansion, and in
its deepest part, the present site of Pyra-
mid lake, it was at least $50 feet deep
that is, its surface stood approximately
500 feet above the present water surface
of Pyramid lake The ancient lake had
no outlet except the one that led straight
up, its waters being dissipated entirely
by evaporation.
A large area few miles north of
Winnemucca is covered with sand dunes
formed since the disappearance of Lake
Lahontan. The dunes are fully Is feet
thick, and their sleeper slopes are on the
eastern side, thus indicating that the
whole vast field of sand is slowly trav-
cling eastward. This progress has ne
cessitated number of changes in the
roads in the southern part of Little
Humboldt valley during recent years.
in some places in this region the tele
graph poles have been buried so deeply
that they have had to be splieed in order
to keep the wires above the erests of
the dunes. The sand is of light creamy
yellow color and forms beautifully
curved ridges and waves that are COW
cred with fretwork of wind ripples,
and many of these ridges are marked in
the most curious manner by the foot
prints of animals, which form strange
hieroglyphics that are sometimes diff
cult to translate. Overland Guidebook, |

DARKEN GRAY HAIR,
LOOK YOUNG, PRETTY
Sage Tea and Sulphur Darkens So Nat
urally That Nobody Can
Tell

Almost everyone knows that sage tea
and sulphur, properly compounded, brings
back the natural color and luster to the
hair when faded, streaked or gray; also
eEds dandruff, itching scalp and stops
falling hair. Years ago the only way TO
get this mixture was to make ii at home
which is mussy and troublesome. Nova
days, by asking at any drug store for
"Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Compound, y
you will get large bottle of this famous
old recipe for about 80 cents.
Don't stay gray Try it! No one can
possibly tell that you darkened your hair,
as it does it so naturally and evenly.
You dampen a sponge or soft brush with
it and draw this through your hair, TAX
ing one small strand at time; by morn
ing the gray hair disappears, and after
another application or two, your hair be-
comes beautifully dark, thick and glossy.
