SAGE TEA DARKENS
HAIR TO ANY SHADE
Don't Stay Gray! Here's an
Old-tirne Recipe that Any
body 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 attrac-
tive. 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
out-of-date. Nowadays, by asking at
any drug store for bottle Of "Wyeth's
Sage and Sulphur Compound" you
will get this famous old preparation.
improved by the addition of other In
gradients, which can be depended up
on to restore natural color and beauty
to the hair.
A well-known downtown druggist
says II darkens the hair SO naturally
and evenly that nobody can tell It has
been applied. You simply dampen q
sponge or soft brush with II and draw
this through your hair. taking one
strand at a time. By morning the
gray hair disappears, and after an
other application or two, It becomes
beautifully dark and glossy.
Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Com
pound is q delightful toilet requisite
for those who desire a more youthful
appearance. It Is not intended for
the cure, mitigation or prevention Of
disease.

WHALE CAUGHT
WITHHIND LEGS
No, It's Not Bad Dream, But Real
Whale Scientists Say 1t Reverts
Back to Primal State.

NEW YORK, N. Y.-Capture off
the coast of British Columbia of re-
markable humpback whale with two
hind limbs became known here recent
ly when the bones of the unique ap-
pendages arrived at the American Mu-
scum of Natural History. Scientists
attached to the museum thumbed their
tones on evolution, cudgeed their
brains and concluded the legs might
have been a singular reversion to prim-
tive type.
Back in prehistoric ages they said,
the multigreat granddads of modern
whales may have strutted about on
land. But, so far as they know, no
other whale with bones outside the
body had ever been seen by man.
There was no earthly or waterly
reason for the rear legs on the whale
found off the British Columbia coast.
1t couldn't walk on them, as they were
but four feet long, while the whale
weighed several tons. 1t couldn't use
them for swimming, as they were not
fappers nor were the pedal extremi-
ties webbed. They were simply excess
baggage.
But now they are the subject of
lectures, lantern slides and profound
discussion.

RUFUS JONES AGAIN IN
THE NEWSPAPER BUSINESS
Former Dawsonian Is Interested in a
Paper in Nebraska.

Friends here at Rufus Jones' old
home will read with interest the fol-
lowing from a recent issue OF the AL
lance (Neb.) Times:
THE Miniature Free Press, one of
the Invest and most prosperous weekly
newspapers in the Platte valley, was
purchased Wednesday afternoon by
Ben !. Sallows and Rufus Jones, who
was secretary of the Alliance cham
Der of commerce until his resignation
some time ago.
Mr.. Jones will be in charge of the
property. He will go to Minatare and
assume the editorship and general
management of the Free Press on De-
cember l.
THE Times feels that Alliance will
lose one of her best citizens as re
suit of this deal. -Fhis town knows
him as a commercial secretary rather
than as newspaper man. He came
here about two years ago to take the
secretaryship of the chamber of COM
merce, and when he left that Office
he had built the organization into a
stronger position numerically and H.
nancially than it had occupied before.
primarily, though, Rufus Jones is
newspaper man by profession. His
experience covers a wide range. AS
owner and editor of the largest coun-
try weekly in Alabama, as managing
editor of several of the largest daily
newspapers in the south, and as chief
editorial writer for two or three of the
principal publications in the west he
has learned the game from to z. He
is going to Minatare because, as he
says, he believes in the town, its flu
ture and it's, people. As a citizen and
as a newspaper publisher he will be
decided asset to Miniature.
Alliance will miss him in various
ways-socially, in business circles and
in the ranks of the fraternal organiza-
tions. He is an Elk, a Knight Tenn
plar, a SIND degree Mason and a
Shriner."

BUSINESS IMPROVES IN
DAWSON TERRITORY
PEOPLE BEGINNING TO BUY
NOW THAT PRICES ARE
NEARING OLD LEVELS.

There has been substantial ana
noticeable improvement in business IN
Dawson during the past few days,
and this activity is expected to extend
through the season. The principal rea--
son is the sharp reduction i'll prices OF
merchandise, goods having been
marked down to where dollar will
purchase almost as much as in the
pre-war days. The weather, of course,
has helped somewhat, creating de-
mand for winter clothes and shoes.
For a long time the buying public
held off, believing that prices were
too high This movement was aided
bv the sudden and unexpected tumble
in cotton and cotton products, the de-
cline having cut large hole IN the
income of countless thousands OF
farmers in the south. To meet that
situation, in so far as possible, mer-
chants have reduced their merchan-
disc in some cases almost half, sell
ing goods now not on basis OF 4O
cents cotton, but on basis of Is and
20 cents cotton.
Within the past few days merchants
here have put into effect sharp cuts
in practically all lines of merchandise.
These reductions have averaged all
the way from twenty-five per cent to
one-half, presenting to the buying
public an attractive opportunity to Sc
cure needed stocks at reasonable
prices. The price reductions include
Shoes and clothing, dress goods, fur
nishings and groceries. For the first
time in many months sugar has been
sold here at 10 cents pound Com
pared with the high level of 80 cents
8 pounds for a dollar-that price seems
like old times.
Well informed authorities advise
people to buy now what they actually
need, expressing the belief that prices
will brace up again as soon as retail
stocks have been closed out and the
dealers have to go into the markets
again. Some authorities predict high
er prices after the holidays. Regardless
of that, it does seem that now is a
good time to buy. To wait further
reductions would be hazardous, for
there is a possibility that prices are
now at their lowest level.
Several of the merchants of Daw-
son recently put on advertising cam
paigns, which have brought a large
volume of trade, demonstrating beyond
question that advertising pays.
