One of the largest , rotary snow plows In the world is to be assigned to the mountain division of the O.-W. out of La Grande. The plow which has been in use for such work waa found to be too small and did not always develop the necessary power to remove large heaps of snow from the tracks. The old V shaped plow which preceded the rotary was of little use In these sections and the rotary was Introduced. The new ro tary will throw the snow away from the track with great force and make shoveling unnecessary. It Is said the idea of the rotary plow originated In the mind of a pumper at Telocasot. He took ' the Idea from the windmill. Men of means took) up the thought, experimented with It and evolved the present high- power, efficient machine. But the humble pumper got little or no credit Tor the Invention. The new machine will be practical ly like the old rotary which has been in use here but will be much larger and more powerful, and has the clear, lng attachment Tt is being shipped from the east and should be here In a few days.

T PULL OUT THE GRAY HAIRS A Few Applications of Simple Bern edy M ill Bring Back the Natural Color. "Pull out one gray hair and a dozen will take Ita place" Is an old saying which is, to a great extent, true, if no steps are taken to stop the cause. When gray hairs appear it 1b a sign that Nature needs assistance. It la Nature's call for help. Gray hair, dull, lifeless hair, or hair that is fal ling out, is not necessasily a sign of advancing age, for there are thou sands of elderly people with perfect head of hair without a single streak of gray. When gray hairs come, or when the hair seems to be lifeless or dead. some good, reliable hair-restoring treatment should be resorted to at once. Specialists say that one of the best preparations to use is the old' fashioned sage tea which ' our grandparents used. Nhe best prepara tion of this kind is Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Hair Remedy, a preparation of domestic sage and sulphur, sclen tlfically compounded with later dis covered hair tonics and stimulants, the whole mixture being carefully balanced and tested by experts.1 Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur is clean and wholesome and perfectly harm less. It refreshes dry, parched hale removes dandruff and gradually re stores faded or gray hair to Its nat ural color. Don't delay another minute. Start using Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur -at once and. see what a difference a few days' treatment will make In your hair. This preparation Is offered to tbt public at fifty cents a bottle, and ! recommended and sold by all drug gists.
