Almost everyone knows that Sage Tea and Sulphur, properly compound ed, brings back the natural color and lustre to the hair when faded, streak ed or gray.

I ?! 1 This kind of rough talk will be heard less here In town if people troubled with corns will follow the simple advice of this Cincinnati authority, who claims that a few drops of a drug called freezone when applied to a tender, aching corn or hardened callous stops soreness at once, and soon the corn or callous dries up and lifts right off without pain. He says freezone dries immediately and never Inflames or even irritates the surrounding skin. A small bottle of freezone will cost very little at any drug store, but will positively remove every hard or soft corn or callous from one's feet. Millions of America's women will welcome this announce ment since the inauguration of the high heels. If your druggist doesn't have freezone tell him to order a small bottle for you. Adv.

Chandler, George E. Rodman, D. V. Northland and E. F. Benson was appointed to draft a bill to be presented to congress through Washington members. The commit tee also decided on the date and place lor tne next annual meeting, uxine December 17 and 18, 1918, at Yakima. Kittitas Hay Stock is Low. Ellensburg, Wash. Due to tho' fact that the hay stock of the Kittitas val ley is low, and because prices are not higher than the average, hay dealers here do not have much fear of the gov ernment regulation of prices. Kittitas valley has been estimated to have only about 7000 tons of hay on stocks held by dealers. In former years the government only used about 10 per cent of the crop, while at least one-fourth of the crop this year has been sent to Manila and Camp Lewis. Cotton Grown Along Columbia. Ellensburg, Wash. T. Brulett, of McPherson's sheep ranch at Rich mond's ferry, on the Columbia river, has raised some cotton. It is of fair quality and good color, but is not long and had not fully matured. Those in terested in its cultivation think that because of the long growing ceon and the hot, dry summers, and the fact that the country there is only 435 feet above sea level, the cotton may be grown on a commercial scale.
