ALLIES CUT PRICES
PAID FOR WAR HORSES
Pueblo Star-Journal:-

Pueblo Star-Journal:-
The demand for horses to ship TO the
warning countries of Europe, so keen q
year ago. that Pueblo agents were do
ing considerable and profitable bust
ness, has fallen off of late According
to Rubey Bros largest local dealers in
the animals. only an occasional sale is
made.
The reason for the drop in the de.
rnAnd is found in the fact that the Allies.
formerly willing and eager to pay top
prices have lowered it until it is more
profitable 10 supply the domestic de-
msnd. Where they used to pay a maxi
mum price of SIS for good horse
weighing 1900 pounds, they now offer
only slO for An animal in the same
classification.
The Allies are using as many horses
as ever" said C. A. Rubey. but their
agents have discovered something they
didn't suspect before-namely that U.
S. can go on supplying horses to the
Allies for the next fifty years and still
have plenty left
when the buying first commenced,
the agent thought they would have all
the available horses bought up within .
year. That was the reason they paid
such high prices. Lately they have
reached the conclusion that they can't
exhaust our resources SO rapidly as they
thought. hence the reduction.
Mr.. Rubey added that under present
conditions horse dealers must guarantee
animals of the first class to be entirely
free from maladies or blemishes, which
guarantee is binding until the horses
reach Montreal. II any defect appear
interim, they are thrown out and the
deal abrogated.
Formerly agents made frequent trips
to Pueblo looking for horses. Now the
business is handled exclusively through
Denver agency. Occasionally pur-
chase is made here, but only where the
classification is right and the price like
wise.

DISASTROUS FIRE
 VISITS PARIS, TEX.
GREAT WALL OF FLAMES BURNED ITS WAY THROUGH BLOCKS
 OF RESIDENCES.
ESTIMATE $2,OOO,0OO LOSS
Destruction of Practically Every Mer cantile Establishment Has Cut Of Food Supply and Clothing
 Suffering Is Great.

Paris, Tex.-At least 60 per cen, of the residence and business sections Of Paris were wiped out by a fire that swept through the city The fire started in a warehouse at the outskirts of the city and was quickly famed by high wind into a great wall of flame that burned its way through blocks of residences into the business district
 A hurried survey shows that not more than 15 of the more than 14O buildings in the business district is still standing
 The fire started in the extreme southern portion of the city. It has left funnelshaped wake of destruc. tion two blocks wide at the start and from eight to 10 blocks wide where the fire was raging
 The suffering in Paris is great The destruction of practically every mer- cantile establishment has cut off the food supply, and unless food and clothing is sent in from outside points there will be keen distress
 Paris has a population of about 2O,- 900. of which 40 per cenet are negroes. Of the total it was estimated at least 5000 are now without shelter and food.
 Residents have been so busy in combating the flames that they have given little thought to succoring the homeless and destitute.
 This section has been without rain for over 50 days and the frame build ings were consumed as finder. The Paris Fire Department semi-volun- teer organization. with apparatus far from being capable to combat such a conflagration, was powerless to stop the onrushing flames. Scarcity of wa ter was an impeachment.
 Just how the fire started is not known. The warehouse and the Paris compress, with hundreds of bales of cotton, was first consumed The Ire then spread to adjacent residences, built closely together, and of light frame construction.
 It is IS blocks from the compress to the center of the business district. This distance was laid in ruins in less than an hour, the flames leaving in their wake a path from one to three blocks wide. A total of 27 blocks comprised the burned area fin the residence district.
 Sweeping almost due north the fire reached the public square. In this dis. trict were located the exchanges of two telephone companies and one tele- graph company. Telephone girls were forced to flee. The chief opera tor of one telephone company risked her life to go into the burning ex- change to rescue the company's books and records.

Just as coal, when 1t burns, leaves behind a certain amount of incombus. hble material in the form of ashes, so the food and drink taken day after day leaves in the alimentary canal a cer- tain amount of indigestible material, which if not completely eliminated each day, becomes food for the mil lions of bacteria which infest the bow. els. From this mass of leftover waste material, toxins and ptomaine-like poi sons, called uric acid, is formed and then sucked into the blood where it continues to circulate. collecting grain by grain in the joints of the body much like rust collects on the hinge as shown above.

GRANDMA USED SAGE

She mixed Sulphur with it to Restore Color, Gloss,
 YouthfuIness.

Common garden sage brewed into a heavy tea with sulphur added, will turn gray, streaked and faded hair beautifully dark and luxuriant. Just few applications will prove revela- tion If your hair is fading, streaked pr gray. Mixing the Sage Tea and Sul- phur recipe at home, though, is troublesome. An easier way is to get a 50-cent bottle of Wyeths Sage and Sulphur Compound at any drug store all ready for use. This Is the old time recipe improved by the addition of other ingredients.
 While wispy, gray, faded hair is not sinful, we all desire to retain our youthful appearance and attractive ness. By darkening your hair with Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Compound, no one can tell, because it does 1t so naturally, so evenly. You just dampen a sponge or soft brush with it and draw this through your hair, taking one small strand at time; by morn ing all gray hairs have disappeared, and, after another application or two, your hair becomes beautifully dark, glossy, soft and luxuriant.

MANY INQUIRIES FOLLOW INTER. IRRITATION BY JUDGE
 R. J. LEA.
CONSTRUCTION IS LIBERAL
Pulaski Jurist Holds Intent of the Farmers Was Not to Condemn Where No Financial Benefit Ac-
 crues in Giving Liquor Away.
Little Rock.

Llttle ROCK The charge given the Pulaski Coun- ty Grand Jury relative to the enforce ment of the state prohibition law by Judge R. J. Lea has attracted much attention throughout the state and many inquiries are reaching Little Rock as to the exact meaning of the charge. The provision of the act pro- hibiting the giving away of intoxicat- ing liquors of any kind has caused much uneasiness in many circles, many believing that the law made it a felony for anyone to even offer a drink of liquor in his home. Judge Lea, in his charge to the grand jury, explains at length the intention of the law regarding that feature of the act Judge Lea enjoys the reputation of being one of the best criminal law yers in Arkansas, and it is rare thing for him to be reversed by the supreme court. His construction of the new law will be accepted by mem bers of the bar and the judiciary in general over the state.
