Formerly Vessels, MANY ARE LEFT IDLE Carlson Arrives Her on Sailing Vessel Which Had Trip Trom JLrlnca in 53 Days. The Kuropean af has practically put a stop to nitrate mining in Ohil and as a result some 100,000 mine workers have been forced to seek other employment. according to H. Carlson. -who has just arrived here from Arlca in -'the nitrate district of the South American republic. Shipping In the northern ports of Chile is dead as com pared with the activity when saltpeter moved f rcely, .so that where a dozen vessels were loading there are now but two or three. OJerma ny iH onp of the largest con sumed of the output of nitrate mines and in turn sends manufactured arti cles of all kinds to the Chilean ports. Tills trade, too, has been checked ai:d Mr. Carlson believes Portland and oth er cities on this coast have a splendid opportunity now to build up a trade With- Chile. As for the demand for lumber, Mr. Carlson thinks It will be light while the mines are down, but he says there are many other inviting fields. "The Chilean government acted promptly to relieve the situation when the mines shut down." said Mr. Carl son, who for nine years was connected with American, and English shipping offices in Valparaiso and Arlca, "and a great many of the mine laborers have been placed on farms for the time be ing. The government sent transports to the nitrate ports to carry the men and their families to other parts where they could at least moke a living. ROine 35,000 Peruvians and Bolivians were also transported to their homes free of charge." Mr. Carlson states that the railroad being built from the extreme north to the extreme soih of the republic Is rapidly hearing completion. The line lp being built ;n sections by different; interests and .lien a gap of 400 kilo meters is closed it will be possible to travel by rail '.from Arlca In the north to Port de Monto in the south. The only means of transportation direct to this coast open to Mr. Carl son was the sailing ship bound here in ballast so he came here on the Nor wegian ship Morna which made the run in 53 days from Arlca.

Common garden sage brewed into a heavy tea with sulphur and alcohol added, will turn gray, streaked and faded 'hair beautifully dark and luxu riant, remove every bit of dandruff, stop scalp Itching and falling hair. Just a few applications will prove a revelation if your hair is fading, gray or dry, scraggly and thin. Mixing the Sage Tea and Sulphur recipe at home, though, is troublesome. An easier way is to get the ready-to-use tonic, costing about 50 cents a large bottle at drug stores, known as "Wyeth'a Sage and Sulphur Compound." thus avoiding a lot of muss. Whhe wispy, gray, faded hair ia not sinful, we all desire to retain our youthful appearance and attractive ness. By darkening your hair with Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur, no one can tell, because It does it so naturally, so evenly. You oust dampen a sponge or soft brush with it and draw this through your hair, taking one small strand at a time; by morning all gray hairs have disappeared, and, after an other application or two, your hair be comes beautifully dark, ' glossy, : soft and luxuriant.

HOW YOU MAY THROW AWAY YOUR GLASSES The statement IS made that thou-' sands wear eyeglasses who do not really need them. Jf you are one of these unfortunates, then these glasses may be ruining your eyes instead of helping them. Thousands who wear these "windows" may prove for them selves that they cafi dispense with glasses if they will get the following prescription filled at once: Go to any active drug store and get a bottle of Optona; fill a two-ounce bottle with warm water and drop in one Optona tablet. With this harmlessjliquid solu tion bathe the eyes two tot four times daily, and you are likely to be aston ished at the results right from the tart. Many who have been told that they have astigmatism, eye-strain, cataract, sore eyelids, weak eyes, con junctivitis and other eye disorders, re port wonderful benefits from the use of this prescription. Get this prescrip tion filled and use it; you may so strengthen your eyes that glasses will not be necessary. ; Thousands who are blind, or nearly so, or who wear glass es would never have required them if thev had cared for their eyes in time. Save your eyes before it is too late! Do not become one of these victims of neglect. Eyeglasses are only like crutches and every few years they must be changed to fit. the ever-increasing weakened condition, so better see if you can, like many others, get clear, healthy, strong magnetic eyes through. the prescription here given. - .

Children Have Kidney Trouble Three years ago my little girl, An gela, was taken sick with scarlet fever and later dropsy set' in; her face "and limbs swelled and tier eyes puffed. A leading physician here at the time. treated her without : the slightest success. A aampl of your Swamp-Root having been left at the , house at the time, I resolved to try it, and as it agreed with her stomach I continued using it with gratifying results. The Inflam mation began to subside after she had taken the first fifty-cent bottle,1 and after she took two large bottles she was pronnounced cured by ths doctor and has been in good health ever since. The doctor cam to see her every day and examined her every second day until he pronounced her kidneys in per. feet condition. Now then the doctor was under the Impression that I was -giving my girl his medicine, but as his medicine had' failed to do a bit of good, and desiring not to offend him, I did not tell him I was giving her Hwamp-Root and be did not know the difference. I did not use on drop Of his medicine after I start ed my girl on Swamp-Root, and have always felt that Dr. Kilmer's Bwamp Root saved my girl's life, for which I am grateful. I cannot praise It too highly. Very truly, . MRS. MART BTRNH, New Brunswick, N. J.
