MOVEMENT is BEGUN
FOR ASSOCIATED CHARITIES
Meeting Will Be Held at Court House
On Thursday Night.

The News has from time to time
advocated organized charity as the So
luton of a rather difficult problem
constantly confronting the Dawson
people. The citizens are so charitably
inclined they respond readily to al
most every request for help and are
often imposed on by the undeserving.
Rev. S. F. Lowe is OF the opinion
that definite steps should be taken at
once to organize so that every case OF
need might be carefully considered by
a committee from Associated Chair
ties, and it has been suggested that
representatives Of the various women's
organizations, the commercial clubs
and Others meet at the court house
Thursday night at 8 o'clock to take
steps in the matter,
As it is now anybody, whether a
stranger or one of our own people SC
disposed, can start out at any time
and collect a good sum for almost any
cause, whether worthy or unworthy
This lax system works a hardship or
the objects of charity who really de-
serve the bounty OF the community
1t is imperative that something be
done to relieve existing conditions
and organized charity seems the only
solution.

DARKEN GRAY HAIR,
LOOK YOUNG, PRETTY
Sage Tea and Sulphur Darkens
So Naturally that No
body can tell.

Hair that loses it's color and lustre.
or when it fades, turns gray, dull and
Iifeless, is caused by lack OF sulphur
in the hair. Our grandmother made
I'M a mixture of Sage Tea and Sulphur
to keep her locks dark and beautiful,
and thousands of women and men who
value that even color, that beautiful
dark shade of hair which is so at
tractive. use only this old-time recipe.
Nowadays we get this famous mix
tire improved by the addition of other
ingredients by asking at any drug
store for a bottle Of 'Wyeth's Sage
and Sulphur Compound" which dark
ems the hair so naturally, so evenly,
that nobody can possibly tell 1t has
heen applied. You just dampen a
snonge or soft brush with 1t and draw
This through your hair, taking one
small strand at time. By morning
1he gray hair disappears; but what
5aIiebts the ladies with Wyeth's Sage
and Sulphur Compound is that, be-
sides beautifully darkening the hair
after a few applications, 1t also brings
back the gloss and lustre and gives 1t
an appearance OF abundance.

Jump from Bed
in Morning and
Drink Hot Water
Tells why everyone should drink
hot water each morning
before breakfast.

WHY is man and woman, half the
time. feeling nervous, respondent,
worried; some days headachy, dull and
unstrung; some days really incapaci-
tated by illness.
If we all would practice inside-batn-
ing. what a gratifying change would
take place. Instead of thousands of
half-sick, manufacturing souls with
pasty, muddy compilations we should
see crowds Of happy, healthy, rosy
checked people everywhere. The res
son is that the human system does not
rid itself each day Of all the waste
which 1t accumulate under our pres
emit mode of living. For every ounce
Of food and drink taken into the system
nearly an ounce Of waste material
must be carried out, else it feFments
and forms ptomaine-like poisons which
are absorbed into the blood.
Just as necessary as II Is to clean
the ashes from the furnace each day,
before the fire will burn bright and
hot, so we must each morning clear
the inside organs of the previous days
accumulation Of indigestible waste and
body toxins. Men and women, whether
sick or well, are advised to drink each
morning, before breakfast, glass OF
real hot water with teaspoonful OF
limestone phosphate in it, as a harm
less means of washing out OF the
stomach, liver, kidneys and bowels the
indigestible material, waste, sour bile
and toxins; thus cleansing, sweeten-
ing and purifying the entire alimen.
tary canal before putting more food
into the stomach.
Millions of people who had their turn
at constipation, bilious attacks, acid
stomach, nervous days and sleepless
nights have become real cranks about
the morning inside-bath. A quarter
pound of limestone phosphate win not
cost much at the drug store, but is
suflcient to demonstrate to anyone,
it's cleansing. sweetening and freshen'
sag effect upon the system.

IMMUNITY SALE AN
UNQUALIFIED SUCCESS
PEOPLE CAME FOR MILES TO
GET BARGAINS AND ENJOY
FREE ENTERTAINMENT.

Dawson was in holiday attire Thurs
day, Friday and Saturday for the
three days big Community Sale held
by the merchants of the city under the
auspices of the Chamber of Commerce,
the national colors with touches of yell
low and green in pleasing contrast
floating in elaborate decorations from
almost every place of business waving
gay welcome at every entrance to the
city. The stores were also dressed up
on the inside for company, the stocks
of merchandise being most attractively
displayed. Some of the show windows
were marvels of artistic arrangement,
flowers being used in many places
with all the tints of the rainbow
shown in the up-to-date ready-towear
millinery and piece goods.
The good-natured crowds filling the
stores and streets each day shopped
to the music of the band and exchang
ed greetings with old friends. 1t was
season of good fellowship as we'll as
of rare opportunity for purchasing real
bargains, and every one made the
most of the occasion. The merchants
all did a good business. Salespeople
while tired from the rush of the three
days, kept smiling and happy. The
weather was ideal and people crowded
in from as far as fifty miles. The auc-
ton sales from the court house lawn
each afternoon drew large crowds and
furnished much amusement.
The Harrisons gave wonderful ex-
hibitions of skill in bicycle riding, and
their free shows during the day and
in the evening and never failed to jam
the street roped for the performances.
Mr.. and Mrs Harrison and their young
daughter gave many thrilling stunts,
having complete mastery over two
wheels or one, just whichever they
chose to exploit their amazing ability
in dare devil riding.
For the devotees of terpsichore the
nightly street dances furnished diver
SION Hundreds took part in the dane
ing, and there were immense crowds
each night in the role of spectators. A
record attendance was noted at the
masque ball Friday evening, when
striking costumes were worn by many
of the dancers, some of which might
properly be classed as startling.

So CITIZENS SUED BY
REDPATH COMPANY
ALLEGES THEY FAILED TO
COMPLY WITH CONTRACT,
AND ASKS FOR $1,25O.

Through an Albany firm of attor-
news, Lippitt and Burt, the Redpath
Chautauqua Co., of Chicago, Ill, has
filed in the city court of Dawson suit
for $3.50 against So well-known citi-
zens Of this city.
1t is alleged that these citizens en-
tered into contract with the Redpath
company to give a chautauqua for five
days in Dawson last month and obi
gated to buy and sell $3.50 worth OF
season tickets, which they refused to
do when the company came to fill its
engagement.
The citizens who guaranteed this
sum to the chautauqua company gave
written notice to the manager several
weeks prior to the date it was to
appear here that they had decided to
Withdraw from the agreement and stat
ed further that they would not be
responsible for any amount of money
whatever, and asked the company to
cancel its engagement.
When the company came to DaW-
son to fill its engagement some of the
guarantors accepted and paid for their
prorata part of the tickets upon the
belief that their obligation, if any ex-
listed, would be fully discharged and
they would not be sued in the event
legal action was taken. These citizens,
however, are named in the suit along
with others.
The suit will be fought to a finish
by the defendants, and it promises to
be one of the most interesting legal
actions known here for some time.

STATE AND COUNTY
TAX BOOKS HAVE CLOSED
Big Slump in Value of Mules and Au-
tomobiles Is Shown.

Receiver Baldwin, in accordance with
the law, closed the state and county
tax books for receiving returns on Sat
urday, May LIST.
Mr.. Baldwin says that in accordance
with instructions from the county
board of tax assessors he received
property at what it was returned in
1920, less the increase that was made
at the instance of the state tax com
missioner. This increase was on land
and merchandise.
The receiver says property values
have held up fairly well except mules
and automobiles. Both of these have
been returned at valuations much less
than they were given in year ago.
