DON'T HOARD YOUR WHEAT

Mr.. j. N. Saunders, the County
Food Administrator, received the fol-
lowing instructions, which he will
carry out to the letter: "There are
some known disloyal farmers in some
counties boarding their wheat out of
a desire to obstruct the Government.
Whenever you learn Of such a case,
please secure evidence of how much
wheat they have and send name and
address to me in order that l may
prepare the necessary papers to re-
QUESTION it. Such class of persons
should not be allowed to prejudice
the loyal and decent farmers in the
community who are responding to
our appeal to turn in their wheat
and have it ground into the needed
flour. Please be sure of your facts
in presenting each case.

GIRLS! DRAW A MOIST
CLOTH THROUGH HAIR,
DOUBLE ITS BEAUTY
Try This! Hair Gets Thick, Glossy,
Wavy and Beautiful
at Once.

Immediate?-Yes. Certain?-
that's the joy of it. Your hair be-
comes light, wavy, fluffy, abundant
and appears as soft, lustrous and
beautiful as a young girls after a
Danderine hair cleanse. Just try
this-moisten a cloth with a little
Danderine and carefully draw it
through your hair, taking one small
strand at a time. This will cleanse
the hair of dust, dirt or excessive
oil, and in few moments you have
doubled the beauty of your hair. A
delightful surprise awaits those
whose hair has been neglected or is
scraggy, faded, dry, brittle or thin.
Besides Identifying the hair, Dan
dering' dissolves every particle of
dandruff; cleanses, purifies and in
vigorates the scalp, forever stopping
itching and falling hair, but what
will please you most will be after
few weeks use, when you see new
hair-fne and downy at first-yes-
but really new hair growing all over
the scalp. If you care for pretty,
soft hair, and lots of it, surely get
a small bottle of Knowlton's Dan
derine from any drug store or toilet
counter for a few cents.

WATCH OUT FOR YOUR
VITALITY THIS MONTH

You want to be very careful as to
your vitality this month.
You see you have been loading up
your system with heavy food and
your organs of elimination have be-
come so clogged up with poisonous
matter that your vitality is lowered.
This made you most susceptible to
colds, bronchitis, catarrh, pneumo-
MIA, and all sorts of diseases. Your
liver is sluggish, your digestion is
bad, and your bowels and kidneys
are not working right.
Best thing to do is to come in and
get bottle of Vim Hepatica, the uni
versal purifier and tonic, which will
thoroughly, yet gently, cleanse your
entire system, restore your vitality,
and make you not only feel like a
new person but make you proof
against diseases so prevalent this
time of the year. The Lincoln Phar-
macy, Stanford.

Brian said nothing more. They went
to play at theater in the neighbor-

1t into her pocket. She would read il
aser Brian had gone.
When he came to the table she was
immersed in the morning paper, and
at once commenced to read to him the
war news, in which he was intensely
interested.
Germany had declared war, and the
French had joined the British in the
common cause of defeating her. Bri-
an-had, from the first, been greatly
taken up with the advices from the
other side; and although the fighting
had scarcely begun, he often declared
it would mean a long war, and that,
inevitably be drawn into it before
much time had passed.
So now he listened while Ruth read,
and forgot to ask if there had been
any mail. Then, too, the breakfast was
so good, so to his liking, that he had
to hurry to get to the office at his
usual time.
Ruth had been up earlier than usual
because of her wakefulness, and had
gone out and purchased a grapefruit.

GOLD is CHEAP.

The government is urging the keeping Of gold pro-
duction up to what it was before the At first blush
one would think that no encouragement was needed to
stimulate the gold miner. The yellow metal has always
been considered the standard of values the measure or
yardstck by which all other commodities had their value
fixed This is true only in sense for the value OF gold
fuctuates as much as almost any other metal 1t is for
this reason the production of gold has fallen off since the
war It's value has decreased one-haf. When the gov
ernment fixed the price Of wheat at 1925 it fixed the
value of gold in the dollar as compared to the value OF
wheat before the war; at about fifty cents. In other
words it takes two gold dollars purchase the same guam
tv of wheat one would have purchased before the war;
It will be seen that instead of being the measure OF values
it is but the measure fixing the comparative values OF
the things man uses The copper MINER the lead and zinc
miner as well as those engaged in producing iron and the
various other metals have the value OF their products
steadily increased One hundred pounds OF copper was
worth more in gold and in products than before 1t IS
not SO with the gold miner for when he takes his product
to the mint while he gets the same number OF gold dol
lars in exchange for them finds that their purchasing
power has been reduced onehaf 1t takes twice as much
to nav his labor and the cost of extraction and will only
buy one half or less of the things he wants. Naturally
the gold miner lays off, especially where he operating
low grade ores and saves his mine until the price OF gold
goes up The has called the bankers OF
coast to assist the miners and steps being taken along
this line Gold is cheap dehroned from its high position
which is now held by platinum which is worth in the
markets six to times what the money metal val
