TO THE MUSIC TEACHERS
 OF NEVADA COUNTY


 A musical education. is not only essential to the general welfare and happiness of every one, but is one of the three thoughts that we are com manded to do in Gods Word:
 Preach, sing and pray.
 When we begin to realize the hap piness that we may bring to mankind by teaching them to sing, it behooves us to bestir ourselves to prepare our selves for the great demand for more efficient teachers.
 It will cost me no little sum of money to go to Alabama, Georgia or other states to school, so will it cost you. In the winter and summer months I'm busy teaching, so are you Why not have a regular teachers normal here in Nevada county in the month of March? I'll pay my part, others have said the same.

WHEN YOU WAKE UP DRINK GLASS
 OF HOT WATER
Wash the poisons and toxins from system before putting more
 food into stomach.
Says inside-bathing makes any. one look and feel clean,
 sweet and refreshed.

Wash yourself on the inside before breakfast like you do on the outside. This is vastly more important be- cause the skin pores do not absorb inn purities into the blood, causing illness, while the bowel pores do.
 For every ounce of food and drink taken into the stomach, nearly an ounce of waste material must be car ried out of the body If this waste material is not eliminated day by day it quickly ferments and generates poisons, gases and toxins which are absorbed or sucked into the blood stream, through the lymph ducts which should such only nourishment to sustain the body.
 A splendid health measure is to drink, before breakfast each day, a glass of real hot water with a tea spoonful of limestone phosphate in it, which is a harmless way to wash these poisons, gases and toxins from the stomach, liver, kidneys and bowels; thus cleansing, sweetening and refreshing the entire alimentary canal before putting more food into the stomach.
 A quarter pound of limestone phos- 'phate costs but very little at the drug store but is sufficient to make anyone an enthusiast on inside bathing. Men and women who are accustomed to wake up with a dull, aching head or have furred tongue, bad taste, nasty breath, sallow complexion, others who have bilious attacks, acid stomach or constipation are assured of pro- nounced improvement in both health and appearance shortly

Half Your Living
 Without Money Cost

A right or wrong start in 1917 will make or break most farmers in the South. We are all facing a crisis. This war in Europe puts things in such uncertainty that no man can foresee the future with any degree of clearness.
 The sure and certain increase in cotton acreage means lower cotton prices ne-it fall. Cost of all food and grain products is high. so high that no one can afford to buy and expect to pay out with cotton.
 It's time above all others to play safe; to produce all possible food, grain and forage supplies on your own acres; to cut down the store bill.
 A good piece of garden ground, rightly planted, rightly tended and kept planted the year round, can be made to pay half your living. It will save you more money than you made on the best five acres of cotton you ever grew!

HAVE DARK HAIR
 AND LOOK YOUNG
Nobody Can Tell When You Darken Gray, Faded Hair With
 Sage Tea.

Grandmother kept her hair beauti- fully darkened, glossy and attractive with a brew of Sage Tea and Sulphur. When ever her hair took on that dull, faded or streaked appearance, this simple mixture was applied with won derful effect. By asking at any drug store for "Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Compound" you will get large bottle of this old-time recipe, improved by the addition of other ingredients, all ready to use, for about 50 cents. This simple mixture can be depended upon to restore natural color and beauty to the hair.
 A well-known downtown druggist says everybody uses Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Compound now because it darkens so naturally and evenly that nobody can tell it has been ap- plied-it's so easy to use, too. You simply dampen a comb or soft brush and draw it through your hair, taking one strand at a time. By morning the gray hair disappears; after another application or two, it is restored to it's natural color and looks glossy, soft and beautiful This preparation is a delightful toilet requisite. It is not intended for the cure, mitigation &pr prevention of disease.

New York, May lS--For the re-

that it. advanced too fast the previous
two days. Rumors were current in
an attempt to explain it otherwise.
one of these was naval. battle in

advance was taking profits. The reac-

close was steady and somewhat above

As the short interest has been eiimi-

Jules Lindau. Jr. of the Marlborough
apartments, the prosecuting witness
and manager of n big department store
here. with being responsible for her
actions several weeks ago when she
went to his apartments seeking re-
venge. The girl pleaded guilty to the
charge and Judge Gorter imposed a fine
OF five cents.
According to Miss Baynes story, she
met Lindau when they were both en-
ployed al a local department store.
He paid marked attention to her and
visited her home on n number of oc-
casions and for several months wooed
and won her love. AT all times. ac-
cordinE to Miss Bayne. the prosecuting
