DUDE RANCH
BECKONS TO
MRS. CAPELL

The following story was clipped
from one of the leading daily news
papers of Seattle, Washington, and
is self explanatory:
And in the three words Is q world
of tragedy. Many Seattle society
natron feels the earth-social totterjng
beneath her feet. What will functions
at the Sunset club, affairs OF the
Junior league, elaborate teas and
luncheons be, without Theresa, whose
power for 20 years has outshone that
of any social dictator?
For 20 years Theresa Capell has
been the power behind the throne
in many social affairs. Hers has been
the guiding hand of social successes.
For 20 years Theresa has been cater
ing at Seattle's exclusive functions;
for 20 years her home has been g
household catch word in the High
lands, in all the society residential
sections of Seattle.
DEPART BY MOTOR
Theresa, her two sons, Howard and
John, her sister, Mrs Louise Camp
bell, and her two daughters are
leaving by motor early this morning
for Rancho Manzanita, the dude"
ranch of Mrs E. E. Ainsworth, former
Seattle social leader.
In the middle of october Mrs
Ainsworth will throw open this ex-
elusive winter resort situated in the
Chiricahua mountains As miles from
Douglas, Ariz Mrs. AinsWorth pur..
chased this 500 acre ranch, which
now embraces the inn, nine hole
golf course, a stable well stocked with
high bred riding horses, lakes for
swimming, fine old trails which lure
the hiker, and good fishing and
hunting grounds She even owns
her own dairy and chicken ranch.
IT'S FAMILY AFFAIR
Mrs. Capell will have charge of the
inn dining room and kitchen service.
And, indeed the venture, as 1ar as
the Capells are concerned, is
family affair, for Howard will run
the grocery store and post office
for Mrs. Ainsworth, John will have
charge of the stables and golf links.
Mrs. Campbell will assist her sister
in her work and Mrs Campbell's two
daughters will not doubt oversee the
maid service.

sHELLAC FROM INSECTS

The shellac which is an essential
of the brilliant finish of furniture and
other products today is made from lac,
a resinous incrustation produced on a
tree through the life-work of an in
sect, Tachardia Lacca, a native of
India and adjacent countries. Farmers
tend the insects much as an apiarist
watches his bees, placing them oA
"host" trees, chiefly kusum, wild plum
and pipal, and guarding them until
they reach the new twigs and the
production of stick lac is begun.
Thousands of farmers, each owning
few "host" trees and insects carry
the raw product to refineries, where
the small lots are combined and pre-
pared to meet world demands. An
ambitious farmer makes from IS to
300 rupees a year. The United States
is his best customer.

AN OLD RECIPE
 10 DhRKEN HAIR
Sage lea and. Sulphur Turns Gray, Faded Hair
 Dark and Glossy

Almost everyone knows that Sage Tea and Sulphur. properly compounded. brings back the nat lral color and lustre to the hair when faded. streaked or gray. Years ago the only way to get this mixture was to make it at home. which is mussy and troublesome.
 Nowadays we simply ask at any drug store for "Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Compound. e You will get a large bottle of this oldtime recipe improved by the addition of other ingredients for only 75 cents. Everybody uses this preparation now, be- cause no one can possibly tell that you darkened your hair, as it does it so naturally and even- fly. You dampen sponge or soft brush with it and draw this through your hair, taking one smalr strand at time; by morn- ing the gray hair disappears, and after another application or two. your hair becomes beautifully dark, thick and glossy and you look years younger. ---ady.

 Indeed since his utterance at Rapid City last August the hope expressed by some that he would accept the nomination were it offered to him must have been fathered by something other than a knowledge of Mr. Coolidge and his characteg.a- ties. something foreign to him both personally and as the Chief Executive of the Nation.
