the great bull movement in Wall street of 1894 was due to the use of the $S,- COG, 900 awarded by the government to the Cherokees in bonds and cash for what was known as 'the Cherokee strip" A committee of the Indians came to New York and sold $6,000, 900 of the bonds-chiefly to the Astor es tate-and with that cash clever stock brokers played havoc in the market for a while.

HELP" DESERTS ARMY CAMPS

(Des Moines Register.)
 With the war over and the lure of the uniform gone it has become an exceedingly difficult matter to get wo- men and girls to work at Camp Dodge A year ago every organization in the cantonment which needed women helpers had a woiting list as long as your arm. Now, it's close up the place or take helpers before whom the man. agement itself must bow down in meek submission.
 The hostess house has been compell- ed to close up its cafeteria, because it is impossible to get competent wo- men to cook and serve. Only one or two of the many restaurants which used to fringe the camp still remain open.
 I'm tellin' you, Mabel, there's nothin' to it." said a girl who was employed at the camp recently. When the war was on there was plenty of excitement and swell lookin' officersl Say, kid you remember some of these lieutenants that came down here from Fort She'll ing with the Eighty y-eighth? But now there's more excitment in town. Work, work all day washin dishes and slingin' out grub and that old camp looks so desolate with half the buildings empty. I'm off of it. I worked out there a week and then got called down by an old major because he got hold of a spoon that hadn't been washed. What does he think I am? A horse, that I can do six girls work? I told him not | to get gay with me or I'd knock his block off. Then the manager fired me. I should worry"

lowing the agitator and demagogue, either by choice or by necessity. Pro- duction, both of food and of manufac tured products, is being curtailed. What the future holds it is difficult to foretell. I am a firm believer, how ever, that right will win and that the future will bring the greatest prosper ity and happiness this country ever has enjoyed. We are going to have some trying and difficult experiences to reach that state, but when we come through we will be a stronger and a better nation"
 A very extensive building program is planned. MT. Firestone stated. This includes s1.0OO.00 plant for the Fire stone Steel Products company, ground for which has already been broken. Rims manufactured by this company are now used as standard equipment by more than 65 per cent of the auto mobile companies of the United States. The company also makes 75 per cent of the steel used for solid truck tires.
 Total sales of the Firestone Tire and Rubber company. as announced by Mr. Firestone, covering the period from Nov. 1, 1918, to Sept. l, 1919, were l $69, ,1s714. For the same period of the twelve months preceding, the total was s63,S21, ,046.67. The increase of nine per cent was made despite the fact that the company reduced prices on tires from Is to g per cent during the period first referred to.
 The sales report for August, 1919, he continued, showed the largest months sales in the history of the company and an increase of approximately 35 per cent over August of 1918.
 The last offer of common stock to the employees was largely over-sub- scribed. Another offering will be made in the near future if it can be ar ranged, MT. Firestone announced.

J. 5. PUTS NEW SOLID
 TIRE ON THE MARKET

After long period of experimental tion, new solid truck tire embodying two entirely new principles of con struction is now being placel on the market by the United States Tire com pany.
 The two new principles involved in the manufacture of this tire are so rad ically different from all other exist ing methods of manufacture that they are attracting close attention from tire engineers. Many improvements in solid tire manufacturers have been made since the advent Of the motor truck, but for none of them have the broad claims been made which are made for this new tire.
 One of the claims made is that a method has been discovered of elimi- mating the grain in the rubber and thus greatly reducing splitting and cracking, one of the chief causes of trouble in solid tires. The other is that long step forward has been made in solving the problem of pre- venting tires from seperating from the l tire bands.
 | With regard to this second claim, it is pointed out that it has been the custom until now to fasten the rub Der tire to the steel base by means of dove tailed grooves in the steel band. This union was mechanical and served the purpose of holding the rubber on the band with a varying degree of success.
 The United Ctates Tire company's laboratories have discovered a new process which enables them to form d chemical union between the steel and rubber and at last are able to announce that rubber can be yulcaniZed to steel | provided the steel is treated in the pe- culiar manner developed by their chemists. This feature will practically eliminate base seperation, one of the most bothersome of all solid tire troubles
 The other important improvement embodied in the new tire relates tC the rubber itself and is the result ot long study of rubber and rubber com pounds.

 According to Doctor Chamberlain of Clark university, a high authority, these tribes in Oklahoma and their strength are as follows:

F HAIR |S TURNING
 GRAY, USE SAGE TEA
Here's Grandmother's Recipe to .. Darken and Beautify
 Faded Hair

That beautiful, even shade of dark, glossy hair can only be had by brewing a mixture of Sage Tea and Sulphur. Your hair is your charm. It makes or mars the face. When it fades, turns gray or streahed, just an application or two of Sage and Sulphur enhances it's appearance hundredfold.
 Don't bother to prepare the mix ture; you can get this famous old recipe improved by the addition of other ingredients at small cost, all ready for use. It is called Wyeths Sage and Sulphur Com pound. This can always be de- pended upon to bring back the nat ural color and lustre of your hair.
 Everybody uses 'Wyeth's" Sage and Sulphur Compound now be- cause it darkens so naturally and evenly that nobody can tell it has been applied. You simply dampen a sponge or soft brush with it and draw this through the hair, taking one small strand at a time; by morning the gray hair has disap- peared, and after another applica- tion it becomes beautifully dark and appears glossy and lustrous.

 A friend just back from the oil re- gions of Texas and Oklahoma had luncheon with me recently and incl dentally mentioned the fact that at one of the railroad stations in the latter state (Tulsa, if I remember), an Osage Indian drove up in a $10,000 motor car with a white chauffeur. As he stepped from the car he was seen to wear only a pair of knee brooches, while a radiant Navajo blanket was thrown over his bare shoulders. His feet were encased in patent leather pumps, without socks. He entered the train bound north and took the one remaining stateroom in the St Louis car. He had telegraphed ahead for it, and for reasons after wards seen was shown unusual atten- tion by conductor and porter. He was one of the new oil millionaires.
 The Osage reservation upon which that tribe, racially belonging to Sioux stock, was located, was an almost worthless section of Indian Territory. bounded by the Kansas line on the north and the Arkansas river on the west, not so large as Osage county in Ine present SIdte or OkldnOmd. Oll has been found underneath it and some of the two thousand Osage natives are now receiving royalties of $1,00O to S4,000 a week.
 Pulled Market With s6,o0o,00o
 The most colossal fortune of all his tory was made in oil. If the Indian owners of oil lands in Oklahoma should cancel their leases, or buy them up they might very easily form a great corporation, as has the Texas rival oi the Standard Oil company. With mil lions of capital they would soor possess, they might invade the finan- cial centers of the east and repeat much more successfully than was at tempted in 1894 the reconquest O. country once wholly theirs!

LETTERS FROM THE FUGITIVE.

Pauline's fight was deemed by
many a confession of guilt. The dis
trict attorney declared his intention Of
cabling Il command to hold her for ex-
animation at Alexandria. Or. he said,
perhaps it would be better to inter-
cept her course at Gibraltar or Naples.
The people at Garden Steps paid
little attention to these suggestions,
so absorbed were they in planning for
themselves.
Poor child" said Haviland, she
ran away in sheer panic. You don't
| know Pauline as we do, Mr.. Stone;
she is brave in the face of a present
or material danger. When a garden
er's cottage burned, she was a real
heroine. and saved a tiny baby at risk
of her own life. Blu always a vague
fear or an intangible dread throws her
into a wild, irresponsible state, and
she loses her head utterly. Now, I
Polly committed this deed. l think
that she had stood Aunt Lucy as long
as she possibly could, and you've no
idea what the poor child had to put up
with. l think that when Lady Lucy
threatened to send Pauline away,
homeless and penniless. this panic Of
fear overcame her and she gave that
poison, on an impulse"
But" interrupted Stone, that
would imply her having the poison in
readiness. She couldn't procure it at
a moments notice."

SCENIC HIGHWAY

The following letter published in
the Walker Lake Bulletin expltins it.
self and tells OF the difficulties to be
overcome before the State Highway
on the west side OF Walker Lake can
be constructed:
My dear Mr. Stannard-
have at hand your letter of De-
cember 3lst relative to the road on
the west side OF Walker lake, an an
swer to which has been delayed be-
cause of my absence from the office.
There are two difficulties, as | see
the situation, with this road project.
both of which | believe can eventu-
ally be overcome. In order to secure
any money at all from the federal
government for this road it is neces-
sary that we show that mail is now
carried over it or that it will be car
ried in the future. We have given the
matter great deal of thought have
discussed it with the federal engi-
neers and postal authorities, and un-
der the present act are convinced
that in spite OF the fact that the road
is one of greatest economic import
ance to not only Mineral County
but to the whole state, we cannot get
federal aid in its present form
There is now bill in Congress re-
moving this restriction and we are
urging its passage, and ] believe
this feature will become part of the
act under which we \ get aid from the
federal government.
The second difficulty is in the
matter OF cost and financing. You are
aware OF the difficulties OF construc-
ton over portion of the project and
that its cost will be great Our pres
ent scheme OF financing projects is
Tor the county to pay one-fourth Of
the. cost out OF the County State
Highway Fund, the state to pay the
same out of the State Highway Fund,
and to ask the federal goernment to
pay the other half; and one-half the
cost is maximum the federal govern
ment will pay. 1t is obvious that If
aid coufD be secured at all from the
federal government, it would pay for
but one-half the cost of construction
requiring that the state and county
put up the other half.
Your county will shortly have a
valuable between $500 and $1,000
which would permit under our present
scheme of allocating the funds. OF
financing a project costing about
$4,000. Since there are about thirty
miles in this road it would mean but
$1,000 per mile which is totally in
adequate.
In securing all from the federal
government it is necessary that the
surveys, plans. specifications, type
of :uction, etc, be submitted
10 and approved by them, and they
will approve nothing which is moi s,,l !.
