little WOMEN WILL
Be seen HERE SOON

The house in which Louisa M. Al
colt was reared in Concord, Mass, was
recently purchased by the municipal
ity, and glass frame has been built
around a portion of windowsil
where "Jo," who was really Lousia
Alcott herself, had written her name
years and years ago. Such is the
esteem in which the writer of the
sweet and wholesome American play
of home life is held.
1t took Jessie Bonsteele eight years
to secure the consent of the Alcott
family to dramatize "Little Women
Everything about the book was nat
urally hallowed to the Alcotts. Aunt
Louisa's masterpiece was more than
financial heritage to them. 1t was
legacy and shared with family ira
ditions and memories too sacred to
be presented to the public. But Miss
Bonsteele finally convinced them that
the spirit in which she wished to
produce the play was one OF entire
reverence. In presenting this play to
the Chautauqua patrons, the spirit OF
purity and wholesomeness which per-
mates the story will be in no wise
lessened.
There are fourteen people present.
ing this drama at the Ell Centre Chau-
taqua, including nearly all who scored
such a tremendous success in its pro-
duction in New York last winter. The
first three acts show the Marsh sit
ting room, an exact reproduction OF
the Alcott sitting room in Concord,
where the story of Little Women"
was really lived and where part OF
the book was written. The fourth
act is in the apple orchard at Plum
field, in harvest time-a veritable
golden harvest home, when all the love
stories are finished. The Alcott fam
lily has preserved many of the cos
tunes and properties, which are used
in the production, even to JOS russet
boots, which, according to Little
Women" She got from "lady who
had a friend who knew an actor"
The wholesome sentiment, exquisite
pathos and delightful humor which
made this book an American classic
are all faithfully presented on the
Chautaque platform.

TURN HAIR DARK
With sage TEA
II Mixed With Sulphur 1t Darkens
So Naturally Nobody
Can Tell. .

The old-time mixture of Sage Tea
and Sulphur for darkening gray,
streaked and faded hair is grandmoth-
er's recipe, and folks are again using
it to keep their hair a good, even COL
or, which is quite sensible, as we are
living in an age when youthful ap-
pearance is of the greatest advan-
tage.
Nowadays, though, we don't have
the troublesome task of gathering the
sage and the mussy mixing at home.
All drug stores sell the ready-to-use
product, improved by the addition of
other ingredients, called "Wyeth's
Sage and Sulphur Compound" for
about so cents bottle. 1t is very
popular because nobody can discover
it has been applied. Simply moisten
your comb or soft brush with it
and draw this through your hair, TAX
ing one small strand at time; by
morning the gray hair disappears, but
what delights the ladies with Wyeth's
Sage and Sulphur Compound, is that,
besides beautifully darkening the hair
after a few applications, it also pro-
duces that soft lustrs and appearance
Of abundance which Is so attractive.
This ready.to-usa preparation is a
delightful toilet requisite for those
who desire . more youthful appear
ance. It is not intended for the cure,
mitigation or prevention Of disease. IS

My Dear Mr.. Schader: have just
returned from Kern county. Mr.. Smith
tells me that the man who owns the
garage next to the half block of land
owned by my associates and myself
lin Calipatria), wants to buy lot
of US. He wants to pay 5000 for the
lot. l have talked to my associates
and find that the price he wants to
pay for the lot is just what we paid
for it, long time ago. Some of our
people have been in Calipatria recent
ly, and they think very highly of these
lets. They think that Calipatria will
be one of the largest towns in the val
ley, one of these days, and that prop
erty will double up in value, many
times, and that these lots will bring
a very high price, later on. You see
we are to have two branch railway
lires, starting from Calipatria, and
this will make it quite railroad GEN.
ter; also, it will be center for cot
ten. The new cotton gin and other
enterprises that are soon to be start
ed in Calipatria, will help a great deal.
Our people say that if they could get
one thousand dollars each, now, that
perhaps they would do it. Also, if
the lots are not sold soon, they will
raise on the price, for the lots are
certainly we'll located. have told Mr..
Smith to tell the party to go and see
you. If he comes you can tell him
what our ideas are. We paid you all
,ash for these lots, we do not owe
anything on them, and we feel sure
ne will make much more money by
hanging on to them than we will by
selling them, for we have the greatest
'aith in the future of Calipatria.
Yours very truly,
