Common garden sage brewed into a heavy tea with sulphur added, will turn gray, streaked and faded hair beautifully dark and luxuriant Just a few applications will prove a revela tion if your hair is fading, streaked or gray. Mixing the Sage Tea and Sul phur recipe at home, though,- is trou blesome. An easier way is to get a 50 cent bottle of Wyeth's Sage and Sul phur Compound at any drug store all ready for use. This is the old time recipe improved by the addition of other ingredients. While wispy, gray, faded hair is not sinful, we all desire to retain our youthful appearance and attractive ness. By darkening your hair with Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Compound, no one can tell, because it does it so naturally, so evenly. You just dampen a sponge or soft brush with it and draw this through your hair, taking one small strand at a time; by morn ing all gray hairs have disappeared, and, after another application or two, your hair becomes beautifully dark glossy, soft and luxuriant. This preparation is a delightful toil et requisite and is not intended for the cure, mitigation or prevention of disease. No Cause For Worry. Mrs. De Style Oh, doctor, you must do something to get me on my feet This is my at, home day. Doctor Don't worry, madam. You'll be at home, all right Boston Tran script, t ' Our Opportunity.

CRONKHITE . 45-47 Front Street Portland, Oregon Wheat Prices Soar Again as Peace Probabilities Disappear Chicago Soaring prices in the wheat market Wednesday resulted chiefly from the warlike answer which the entente allies made on Saturday to the peace offer from Berlin. After an extreme ascent of 7 cents a bushel, the market closed unsettled, 6c net high er, with May at $1.79J to $1.80, and July at $1.46 to $1.46. Corn gained 1 to 2c, and oats It to lfc. Provis ions finished at a range varying from 22 Jc decline to a rise of 7J cents. -Excitement was manifest at the opening of business in the wheat pit, and there were gains right at the start running all the way from 1 cent to 41 cents a bushel. Rushes to buy and scarcity of offer ings formed the order of the day, until holders were tempted by chances to realize immediate profits of 6 to 8 cents. Even under such circum stances, however, pressure to sell was none too eager, so general was the agreement of traders that the outlook appeared slight at present for a cessa tion of hostilities in Europe. Corn rose with wheat. Besides, re ceipts were light and there were signs of a demand for export shipments by way of the Gulf of Mexico. Oats readily followed the upward course of other cereals. Houses with Eastern connections were conspicuous buyers. Begin Work on Big Dam. North Yakima C. E. Crownover, manager'bf storage construction for the "Yakima irrigation project, has moved his office from Lake Keechelus to North Yakima and is organizing his office force to take up the work of con struction . at McAllister Meadows, where he will direct the building of a dam costing $2,000,000. The work will continue for four years. The first year will be given over to the building of camps, storehouses, shops, offices, mess houses and other equipment for handling the work.

J. 16-10 National Forest Range Are Heavy Stock Producers That the National Forest ranges in Northern Washington are among the greatest beef and mutton producers of any open range land in the country, is indicated by reports from the Oka nogan National Forest concerning the weights of sheep and cattle shipped from these ranges this year, recently received by District Forester George H. Cecil, Portland Ore. Shipments of lambs""Mirect from these ranges averaged 92 to 95 pounds at the stockyards, while one shipment of Roan Shorthorn-Hereford steers averaged 1366 pounds each with the shrinkage off. The average on the Okanogan Forest for top beef this season will exceed 1300 pounds. The stock growers and the Forest Service cooperate through twelve lo cal stock growers' associations in the Okanogan country.- The various prob lems of the stock business are thresh ed out at the association meetings, so that each member may profit from the experience of others. It is expected that In the near fu ture, only high grade bulls will be per mitted on these ranges. Already .a number of the associations have bought such bulls, which are run on the range, each member paying a ser vice fee prorated according to the number of cows he turns out on the range.
