WYOMING ELK HUNT
Continued from page

and made three that we discovered
There may have been many more that
we did not see and this proves the In
efficiency Of the Wyoming game laws.
The deputy state game wardens have
been weighed in the balance and found
wanting. I do not believe that in
every hundred violations there is one
prosecution. 1t appears that there is
only one way to save this last remain
ing herd of big game and that Is federal
control. The government should take
charge and patrol all the Jackson Hole
country with military police and that
would make it as hard to violate the
game laws and get away with it as it
is to rob postoffice. This will go far
toward saving the elk that are fast
disappearing under present conditions.
The next day, October z, we packed
and started the ponies toward home.
The trails were still slippery but we
got along without accident until over
the mountain. Down on the river we
came to a beaver dam that had to be
crossed and the water was about three
feet deep. The horses got through in
good shape but when the burro reached
the deepest place he laid down, evid-
emily with the intention of committing
suicide by drowning. The guides roped
him, pulled him out and gave him a
good beating. However. there was
nothing lost but Wallis temper which
he soon partially regained. The next
day we fshed down the river and took
pictures, arriving at the Vail ranch
about four o'clock. We brought out
600 pounds of jerked meat and the hides
and horns weighed 400 pounds. We
were now very eager to get to Idaho
Falls, distance Of rs miles. and the
next day we at last succeeded in hiring
lady to take US in a Ford after
making arrangements with Leon to
send the meat, hides and heads at the
first opportunity. This he did and they
arrived in Condor in due time. This il
the story of our elk hunt and l hope
some readers have got little pleasure
out Of reading about trip which gave
Clyde and / a great deal.

ENTHUSIASTIC APPROVAL
 BY PARIS NEWSPAPERS

Paris, Oct. 16.-Enthusiastic ap- proval is given President Wilson's reply to Germany by the morning newspapers today. The Figaro says President Wilson's depth of thought and staunch loyalty no longer per- init the Germans to compromise with defeat. It adds that it puts the ques- tion of German morality with singu- lar force and that is the question which divides the world.
 The President, the Peit Parisian says, seeks to prepare the separation o fthe German nation from its pres ent rulers and if he succeeds, Prus- sian militarism will be dead.
 The Petit Journal says it is the sentence of supreme impartial and honorable judge that President Will son has just pronounced and his sen- tence renders justice to Germany.

FOR COLDS AND GRIPPE
 DOCTORS FIND REMEDY

Physicians and druggists are elat- eded over the fact that they have at last found a genuine and dependable remedy for colds, sore throat, influ- enza and la grippe. For y ears they have depended chiefly upon the old style calonel, which is certainly fine, but unfortunately many people would not take 1t because of its nauseating ana dangerous qualities.
 Now that the pharmaceutical chem ists. have perfected a nausealess calo- mel, called "Calotabs" whose medici- nal virtues are vastly improved, the noctors and druggists are claiming that Calotabs are the ideal remedy to abort cold over night and cut shcrt an attack of sore throat or ia eEirps. They are also finding 1t most effective as the first step in the treatment of pneumonia.
 One Calotab on the tongue at bed tune with swallow of water-that's s all No salts, no nausea nor the slightest interference with your eating or your work and pleasure The next morning your cold has vani- shed and your whole system is plrri- fled and refreshed. Calotabs are sold on in original sealed packages !; price thirty-five cents. Your durg- gists recommends and guarantees them by refunding the price if you are not delighted.-advt.

TURN HAIR DARK
 WITH SAGE TEA
If Mixed with Sulphur It Darkens So Naturally Nobody
 Can Tell.

The old-time mixture of Sage Tea and Sulphur for darkening gray. streaked and faded hair is grandmo- ther's recipe, and folks are again us- ins it to keep their hair a good even color, which is quite sensible, as we are living in an age when youth full appearance is of the greatest ad- vantage.
 Nowadays, though we don't have the troublesome task of gathering the sage and the mussy mixing at home. Al; drug stores sell the ready-to-use product, improved by the addition of other ingredients, called "Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Compound" for about 50 cents bottle. It is very popular because nobody can discover it has been applied. Simply mois- ten your comb or soft brush with it and draw this through your hair, taking 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 darken- ing the hair after a few applications it also produces that soft lustre and appearance of abundance which is so attractive. This ready -to-use pre- psration is delightful toilet Te- quisite for those who desire a more youthful appearance. It is not in- tended for the cure, mitigation or prevention of disease-advt

PRINCE MAMMALIAN A RE-ACTI0NARY IN
 POLITICAL BELIEFS

Basel, Switzerland, Oct. 17.--Prince Maximilian of Baden, the German chancellor, according to advices re- ceived here, has made 8 statement to the party leders in the Reichstag con- corning his famous letter to Prince Alexander of Hohenlohe which show ed that Prime Maximilian was react- ionary in his political attitude and was a firm supporter of the German reigning family and the Pan-Germans.
 Prince Maximilian is quoted as hav- ing told the party leaders that he had repeatedly expressed himself in 1917 and 1918 in favor o ia categorical de- claration on the subject of Belgium, a league of nations. Prussian elector- al reforms and the proper carrying out of the Brest-Litovsk treaty.

HARD TO SAVE
Huns Find It a Problem to Carry Ma terial Along in Their Nasty
 Flight

With the French Army in France, Oct. 16 (By The Associated Press.) While the Germans have been falling back upon immense stores of supplies and munitions accumulated immed- lately in the rear of their principal line their problem has been that of the evacuation of the material they desired to save.
 An inspection of the territory from which they have been driven shows that the problem thus far has been evolved with rare skill. Wherever their line has been bent back of the zone of their. munition dumps. how ever, the situation has been gravely complicated by the necessity ot mak- ing fresh distributions of supplies with the aid of a greatly reduced number of lines of communication. This accounts for the desperate defense by the Germans of their wings and in part for the intensified destruction along the line of the allied advance.
 Mine holes that look like volcanic craters have cut the roads every where.
 These are expected as a legimate military measure but what is incom- prehensible is that the Germans take the time and waste explosives to des- troy chateaus and other buildings that have no military value.
 A great deal of such destruction was accomplished in the area of the Tenth army.
 The cutting of the roads did not prevent General Mangin's troops from making an advance of more than ten miles in 36 hours.

Comment From Entente Nations on Reply
 of President to Germany

young men which must be paid-is not too heavy to pay for wholly satisfactory peace. The word "recon- ciliation' looms large in the propag- anda of this section of the British press.
 Important light is thrown on the German point of view by a careful reading of the mass of German news paper discussion which has been re- celved by the London press. If the German government intended to give the impression in it's utterances that it was accepting President Wilson's principles, the German newspapers and it seems safe to infer from their comment, the German people also cherished quite different view. The majority of the German newspapers seem to think the government consen- ted merely to sit at conference table and discuss the Presidents principles for the arrangement of world affairs.

HUNS WANT TO KNOW
 WHAT GUARANTEE

Amsterdam, Oct. 16.-Commenting on President Wilson's reply to the German peace offer the Berlin Voss- ische-Zeitung asks:
 What guarantees does President Wilson offer that a military super iority will not be utilized afterward by his allies in manner opposed to the principles of justice and concilia- tion?"
 Ut appears that we are at stage it is still possible to warn the enemy that in the history of the world it has often been proved a mistake to drive a strong nation, which in orde not to venture, its all, offered it's hand in peace, into summoning all it's slumbering forces to the national bat tle.''

ENDORSED BY THE
 BRITISH NEWSPAPERS

,,oLndon, Tuesday, Oct. 15.-Now that President Wilson's note of yes- terday is written in history and has received virtually unanimous endorse ment from British newspapers and public men who have commented up- on it, it may be said that there was considerable uneasiness there while the public was awaiting the presi- dents next move.
 The Presidents first not, (making inquiries to the German chancellor in regard to his armistice proposaD led to- some apprehensions that the President might commit America in his reply to the German proposal to some line of policy which the gov ernments and people associated with her against Germany could not fol- low wholeheartedly or that the Presi- dent might seem to speak for the associated governments and by impli- cation pledge them regarding matters on which the others governments had not been consulted and had not agreed.
 The reply of the President however, instantly dissipated all such uneasi- ness, as is attested by the fervor with which the note has been received.
 The only apparent lack of unani- mity in the complete approval of the note is supplied by the comparative ly small group of conciliatory jour nals sometimes classed as "pacifists !" which display some symptoms of faint heartedness. The Machester Guardian which is the leader of this concilia- tory group, has doubts, apparently whether the difference between the cost of immediate peace by comprom- ise and that of war to a finish meaning the price in the lives of
