SAGE TEA DARKENS
HAIR TO ANY SHADE
Don't Stay Grayl Here's an old-time
Recipe That Anybody Can
Apply.

The use of sage and sulphur for re
storing faded gray hair to its natural
color dates back to grandmother's time.
She used it TO keep her hair beautifully
dark, glossy and attractive Whenever
her hair took on that dull, faded or
streaked appearance. this simple mixture
was applied with wonderful effect.
But brewing at home is mussy and
ut-of-date. Nowadays, by asking at
any drug store for 50-cent bottle of
"Wyeth's Sage and sulphur Compound
YOU will get this famous old preparation,
improved by the addition Of other ingre
dents, which can be depended upon to
restore natural color and beauty to the
hair.
A well-knoWn downtown druggist says
it dsrkens the hair 50 naturally and
evenly that nobody can tell it has been
applied. You simply dampen a sponge
or soft brush with il and draw this
through your hair. taking one strand at
a time. By morning the gray hair dis
appears, and after another application OF
two, il becomes beautifully dark and
glossy.
Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Compound
Is a delightful toilet requisite for those
who desire q more youthful appearance.
Il Is not intended for the cIIre, mitigs-
lion or prevention of disesse.-Adv.

Proposed to Reduce the
| Area Of Project to 1000
T Acres and Raise Water
Rights From $40 to $50 or
500.
SECRET MEETING TO
CONSIDER THE PLAN
No Action Taken, but Situa-
tion Gone Over Thorough
~ in an Effort to Save the
Enterprise From Total
Loss.

The state land board had before II
today the plans proposed by r. T.
Meredith and s. j. Dillon for the recla-
nation of lands under the West End

tives of the company as well as news
paper men were barred. 1t was ex-
planned this was done for the purpose
of discussing the question from all
angles and not with the view of taking
action. In fact no action was taken.
Under the new plans the water rights
would be raised from $40 to 800 or
800, but the project would be COM
pleted before any of the land is sold,
the laterals fenced and other improve
ments made. The high cost of the
water right is necessary, it is claimed,
because of the expense attached to the
construction work. All of the tracts
are to be divided into so acres. APP
proximately 1000 acres can be re-
claimed. About $4,000 acre feet of
water can be impounded in the reser-
voir. 1t is also proposed to prepare the
land for the first crop and to induce
settlers with means to take lands. The
financial plans call for the issuance of
$350,000 in bonds to be purchased by
, Meredith and others associated with
him. Those who placed money in the
project before are to be given stock
amounting in all to 100000. Meredith
has put $4,000 in the project, keeping
1t alive. When~the project was orig
inally opened, water rights for 81 1000
acres were sold.
