BASEBALL LEAGUE La Grande is still crying for a Class D baseball league and the re cent story In the East Oregonian to the effect that Pendleton and Walla Walla, Athena-Weston and Dayton, has moved the La Grande Observer to commend as follows: Pendleton's baseball scribe may or may not be correct as to his hypo thesis about expense. The feeling gen erally prevails that such a league would be a paying proposition and that everywhere there Is a rule which sustains good baseball if good base ball is. first provided. It Is not to b expected that support will be forth coming if there is no effort to pro duce the best available right off the reel. The above from Pendleton Is probably started by some group of fans in Pendleton and Walla Walla who dare not venture out on bigger linen and will continue to stay with the town lot brands of baseball not CASTOR I A For Infant! and Children.

TOXIC MAKER SENTENCED TO GROW HAIR OX POLICEMAN Chicago, 111. E. F. Gonzales, a hair tonic manufacturer at 4225 In diana avenue, was sentenced by Mu nicipal Judge Thomas F. Scully to grow a luxuriant crop of hair on the bald pate of Policeman Burns with In a year as a punishment for annoying Miss Kate C. Hollhan by sailing sev eral times at her "beauty shop." Xo reason was assigned by the court for subjecting Officer Burns to such un usual treatment. Miss Holihan testified she had been annoyed by Gonzales and had lost money by investing In the hair growing' preparation which, she claimed, was worthless. Gonzales, on the other hand, brought a. counter charge that he had been annoyed by Miss Holihan, and produced post cards in support of hia assertion. "There Is nothing wrong with my tonic," he declared. "It will grow hair if properly used. It not only cleanses the scalp, removes dandruff, strengthens and nourishes the folli cles, loosens the scalp, stops falling hair, but" "Enough," interrupted the court pausing to pass Judgment on the weighty question. "I am going to place you under a peace bond for one year," said Judge Scully addressing Gonzales, "and during that time I want you to test out your tonic on Policeman Burns' head. Be sure that you grow a good crop of hair and report to me at the expiration or the peace bond." Gonzalos looked hopelessly at the policeman's 'hairless pate and with an air of despair left the room. The punishment was more than he could bear. As Tor Burns, he is trembling between expectancy and rear. AGED MAX TAKES HIS OWX SOX FOR SHARPER St. Louis, Mo. C. F. Stahl of Up per Alton met his father in the Union station and spent the rest of the af ternoon and evening trying to per suade the elder that he was not a confidence man. The father, A. G. Stahl, came from Lawrence, Kan., to make his home with his son. He is 86 years old, nearly blind and hard of hearing. The son came from Upper Alton to see him safely through the dan gers of St. Louts. He feared the father, in his old age and country innocence, would rail an easy victim of sharpers. "How do you do, father? Glad to see you," said the son when his rel ative arrived. "You are some kind of a confi dence man," said the senior Stahl.

The son protested; the rather per sisted In his opinion. They dined to gether in the station, but the elder would not trust the Upper Alton man. He was not convinced until they arrived at the home and the daughter-in-law gave her word. The two had not met in three years and the son had changed consider ably.

AUTO THEFTS IX SPOKANE TOTAL $150,000 IX YEAR Spokane, Wash. Thefts of more than $150,000 worth of high-power touring cars during the last year has prompted the Spokane Retail Deal ers' association to offer a reward of $100 for information leading to the capture . and conviction of the cul prits. L. W. Hodglns, president or the association, thinks it is the work of an organized band that has worked In various large cities In the Pacific Northwest. "If $100 is not suffici ent," he said, "the dealers can well af ford to increase the reward to $1,000, in an effort to stop this evil, which is now more widespread than was horsestealing In the palmy days of the rustlers. Formal action will be taken at a meeting called ror March 4." Chief Doust admits that the local police have not been able to follow a single clue and is of the opinion that the stolen machines are disposed of elsewhere. The railroad companies declare they have no record of the transporting of cars to points out of Spokane, hence it Is thought the thieves drive them under their own power to remote points. OLD-TIME REMEDY DARKENS THE HAIR From time immemorial, sage and sulphur have been used for the hair and scalp. Almost everyone knows of the value of such a combination for darkening the hair, for curing dandruff and falling hair, and for making the hair grow.

Nowadays almost every up to date druggist can supply his patrons with a ready-to-use pro duct, skillfully compounded in per fectly equipped laboratories. The Wyeth Chemical Company of New York put up an Ideal remedy of this sort, cal'.ed Wyeth's Sage and Sul nhnr H.ilr Rpmedv ftn,l authorize druggists to sell it under guarantee! that the money will be refunded if it rails to do exactly as represented.
