LADIES'! LOOK YOUNG,
\ OARKEN GRAY HAIR
n.y.
Use the Old-time Sage Tea and
Sulphur and Nobody
will Know.

Gray hair, however handsome, denotes
advancing age We all know the advan-
tages of a youthful appearance. Your
hair is your charm. It makes or mars
the face. When it fades, turns gray and
looks streaked, just few applications
of Sage Tea and Sulphur enhances its ap
pearance hundred-fold.
Don't stay gray! Look young! Either
prepare the recipe at home or get from
any drug store a 50-cent bottle of
'Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Compound"
which is merely the old-time recipe inn
proved by the addition of other ingredi-
ents. Thousands of folks recommend this
ready-to-use preparation, because it
darkens the hair beautifully, besides no
one can possibly tell, as it darkens so
naturally and evenly. You moisten a
sponge or soft brush with it, drawing this
through the hair, taking one small strand
at a time. By morning the gray hair
disappears; after another application or
two, its natural color is restored and it
becomes thick, glossy and lustrous, and
you appear years younger.
Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Compound
is delightful toilet requisite. It is not
intended for the cure, mitigation or pre-
vention of disease.

SUNDAY COLLECTION FOR RED
Cross.

The collection Of Trinity Church Sun
day will be devoted to the Red Cross
work.
When this is stated, it does not
mean that the people should be apa-
thetic about the matter, for 1t is the
one big thought Of the country, pro-
viding for those we send abroad, away
from home and friends, lying wounded
in temporary hospitals, and perhaps dy-
ing without hearing a familiar voice.
Your boy will probably not go, but
some other woman s son will, and in
these days you are "your brother s
Keeper and everyone must do an equal
share in the great fight that America
alone must wage.
Let everyone, man, woman and child
attend these services and be prepared
with the "widow s mite,' if nothing
more for in the offering OF the poor
there is much rejoicing in Heaven.

ROAD COMMITTEE
TO LEGISLATURE

LEWISTON, Jan. 12.-Representa-
tives of the central Idaho committees
yesterday adopted a program providing
for having q delegate at Boise during
the legislative session who will be
prepared to furnish data on the needs
of permanent highways. The ex-
penses of maintaining such a delegate
will be borne by the residents of Clear
water. Lewis, Idaho and Nez Perce
counties The meeting was convened
at the Elks' temple at II o'clock and
was called to order by DR.. L. j. Per-
kins, president of the North and South
State Highway association. 1t was es-
timated the expenses to each county
will be at least 500 and that a larger
fund may be necessary before the
work is completed.
The sentiment expressed by the del
egates in attendance was that some
person familiar with the entire high
way system planned for the central
Idaho counties should be in attend
ance at the legislature to furnish defi-
mite mad accurate information to legis-
lators on questions dealing with high
way construction in the central part
Of the state. i

FIRST NATIONAL
BUYS Big BLOCK
DEAL CLOSED YESTERDAY FOR
THREE-STORY BUILDING AT
CORNER OF THIRD AND MAIN

Officers of the First National bank
closed deal yesterday afternoon
whereby the bank becomes the owner
of the large three-story building at the
corner of Third and Main in which the
offices are located The consideration
is not made public, but this is one OF
the largest real estate deals made in
Moscow for some time.
E. M. Bush of Salem, Ore, former
president of the bank, was the owner
of the building, having erected it in
1891 with his partner Mr.. Gilbert for
use as bank building.
Beside the banking offices on the
ground floor, part on Main street is
occupied by the Collins & Orland
Hardware company, and a room facing
Third street is occupied by the
Schwarz tailor shop.
The second floor is used by several
local attorneys and physicians for of
fees; and the third floor is made up in
to lodge rooms for local organizations
The new owners plan to make num-
erous changes in the near future to
make the banking offices more con-
venient, and to improve the building
generally.

ing for $4,000 for good roads in the
Fort Hall Indian reservation, the sign
ing by the speaker of the militia pay
bill and the appointment of standing
committees in the house and senate
were the features of yesterdays pro-
ceedings.

IDAHO WINS FROM
GONzAGA PLAYERS
GAME AT END OF LAST HALF IN
SPOKANE LAST NIGHT WAS 30
TO 3O-IDAHO BREAKS TIE

The University of Idaho basket ball
team won hard fought game from
the Gonzaga university five last night
after five minutes of extra play, 80
to 30, in the Gonzaga gymnasium. At
the end of the second half the score
was 80 to 80, the teams having bat
tied 40 minutes without advantage.
At the end of the first half Gonzaga
had two-point margin, but as soon
as the second half started Idaho
evened up the count. The teams never
were more than two points apart. The
feature was the long range shooting,
several baskets being ringed from
close to the middle Of the floor.
Blackmer and Martinson were Ida
hos star players.
The Idaho team left Spokane last
night for Missoula, where it will meet
the University of Montana quintet to-
light.

LONDON TIMES
HONORS HULME
British Paper Gives University Pro-
fessor's Book on the Renaissance a
Lengthy and Complimentary Review

The London Times says in its
lengthy and complimentary review OF
the work of Professor Hulme of the
Idaho university, that this state is one
of the least developed of the Rocky
mountain commemorative, meaning
of course, in literary way. The high
praise it accords Professor Hume foI
his wide range of thought and his
scholarly and unbiased presentation
of profound subject tells us what
we already knew, but what outsiders
may not have known, that We have
reached a stage of literary develop
ment. comparing favorably with that
of other western states and that does
not suffer materially in comparison
with that of most of the others.
Mary Hallock Foote was the first TO
give Idaho any sort of literary stand
ing over the nation. Professor Hulme
comes years after as the second, but
the credit to Idaho this time bears
more of an international stamp.
There have been others, however,
who in more modest accomplishments
have added to the cultural reputation
of this state. In historians we have
John HALEY, who has preserved per-
tinent facts of Idaho's history in per-
manent form. Former Governor Will
lam J. Mcconnell and the late Will
lam A. Goulder wove phases ofsIdaho
history into most entertaining remi-
niscence and the late Judge Flenner
in his works has denoted a literary
standing for the state of a high order
1t is true that prophet is not with
out honor save in his own country.
Mrs Foote was not fully appreciated
at home. Professor Hulme might have
gone unrecognized to any great extent
at home but for the praise accorded
elsewhere. The others, perhaps, could
hardly expect to attract more than
ocal attention. The situation does
lot form a reflection upon the intelli-
renee or perception of Idaho people. |

in Belief that Congress Fears to Garry. ION Probe
Hot Debate Waged

: WASHINGTON, lJanl 12-William
lana, declared IN the house today that
the failure OF the leak probe which
closed yesterday without result, con
firms the belief Of the public that con
gress fears to carry on such in-
yestigations or probes lest prominent
government officials or congressman
become involved. This declar ton
was the opening shot of what proved
to be one of the hottest debates ever
held.

that congressman is involved de
clared Representative Lenroot Of New

At this the democrats hissed and
demanded the name of the repres nnta-

Lenroot replied that the name the
congressman was unknown, ding
that the probing committee ba an
opportunity to ascertain the name hut
failed.

cuse officials of having profited b the
alleged leak, today urged congre s. to

Lawson was called an irresponsible
frenzied four-fiusher by Representa-

tain republicans were abetting him, liz
causing the leak probe disturbances
He asserted that Lawson had failed
to prove his elaborate charges.
Representative Garrett said that
Lawson should either be jailed or sent

CONDITIONS IN COAL
MARKET AGAIN ACUTE
Leading Wholesalers Cancel Advertising Account
Of Inability to Fill Contracts - Local Market
Seems Unaffected at Present

Conditions governing the coal sup
ply in the United States have become
such that nearly all leading wholesale
companies have cancelled their orders
for advertising with newspapers
Blockades, due to car cOngeStions in
the distributing points in the east
snow blockades in the mountains, the
car shortage, the Canadian embargo
cutting off the supply from British
Columbia, and strikes are some of the
things that have affected the market
to such an extent that contracts with
retailers cannot be met
The curtailing has not as yet had
disastrous effects on the local mar
ket, but serious possibilities can be
fOreseen. Nearly all dealers report
a supply much below normal, with
no promise of immediate relief held
out by the sources of wholesale sup
ply.
The situation is worse at present
than it has been at any time this win
ter" states e. MacMartin, manager
of the Standard Lumber companys
general offices here. although ship
ments have been considerably reduced,
we have until the present time, been
able to get at least a small supply
with fair promise that future orders
would be filled. At present absolutely
no satisfaction can be had"
Eve have a fair supply of coal on
hand at present" states a represent
ative of the Moscow Commission COM
pany, "but we understand that the
snow blockade make possibility of fu-
ture orders uncertain. for a time at
least"
There doesn't seem to be much
chance to choose the best Goals when
an order is made" states J. L. Roise,
of the Madison Lumber company.
Only few kinds of the best grades
can be had, and those not often. Our
supply is low"
The Potlatch Lumber company finds
the same difficulty as other local
dealers, according to w H. Conner,
manager, who says The car con-
gestions and blockades, we under
stand, are creating a serious situation
in the coal market We haven't much
of supply"
The dealers expect the situation to |
clear up with the approach of good |
of the thousands of freight cars sent

new JUDICIAL DISTRICT

A bill will be introduced at the
present session of the legislature ask
ing for the division of the second jul
diciaI district, thus creating new
district. The district now embraces
the counties of NeZ Perce, Idaho,
Lewis, Clearwater and Latah and the
presiding judge is E. c. Steele. 1t is
proposed that Nez Perce, Lewis and
Idaho shall constitute the new dis
trict. thus leaving Latah and Clear
water in the original district, to this
latter district to be added he territory
of the proposed new Selway county.
1t is understood that the bill pro-
viding for the new district will be
introduced early in the session and
conditions indicate it will meet little
or no opposition, due to the fact that
it is realized the volume of business
now handled in the second judicial
district has for a long period placed
an undue responsibility on Judge
task without complaint.
During the years he has been on
tn bench the population of the dis
trict has practically doubled until
now at the opening of each term of
court in the respective counties he
faces a formidable calendar. 1t is
stated that Judge Steele favors the
division. AS he resides in Latah
he would remain as presiding
Judge of the original district.
