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.

New German Thrust Due at Mount Kimmel Million and Half Huns Cut Off Now Face Hunger. Ottawa, Ont. The lull in the fight ing in France is not expected to last ong, notwithstanding the inclemency of the weather, with wind and rain, says a Reuter's dispatch received here Monday from London. "The Germans are licking their hurts after their recent thrashing and evidently do not mean to reattack un til they are ready to do so on a great scale," the message adds. "They are being openly and enor mously reinforced, but the allies also 5500 ACRES BOUGHT With the Fingers! Says Corns Lift Out Without Any Pain You reckless men and women who are pestered w'th corns and who have at least once a week invited an awiui death from lockjaw or blood poison are now told by a Cincinnati authority to use a drug called freezone, which the moment a tew drops are applied to any corn or callous the soreness is relieved and soon the entire corn or callous, root and all, lifts off with the fingers. ' Freezone dries the moment it is ap plied, and simply shriveli the corn or callous without inflaming or even Ir ritating the surrounding tissue or skin, A small bottle of freezone will cost very little at any of the drug Btores, but will positively rid one's feet of every hard or soft corn or hardened callous. If your druggist hasn't any freezone he can get it at any wholesale drug house for you Adv. The Judge and the Expert. Mayor Hylan of New York has no belief in efficiency experts and has banished them from the city hall. An efficiency expert undertook to teach Judge Hylan, as he then was, a lesson some years ago. "I observe, judge, the man said, that you've given notice to your of fice boy, Jimmy. That's a great mistake." "But he's the most worthless lit tle" "Judge," the expert interrupted, with a superior smile, "I'm going to give you an efficiency lesson. Take Jimmy back, for he sings at his work, and there's no surer sign of efficiency." Humph, that's no sign, said the Judge. "A mosquito does that." The Sailor Speller. In the harbor a "drifter" was hav ing her name repainted, and near to her was a British war vessel from the decks of which a number of interested tars watched intently while the name Psvche was put on.

OO Rooms 100 Baths Near Both Depots Absolutely Fireproof Rich Reclaimed Tract Along Columbia River Brings $300,000-Oats and Pasturage for First Year. Fifty-flve hundred acres of choice bottom land reclaimed from the Co lumbia river, near Clatskanie, in Co lumbia county, Or., has been pur chased from the Columbia Agricultural comDanv bv a syndicate composed of Lee Arnett Portland banker; Max H Houser, grain exporter and Federal erain administrator for the Northwest; Ralph E. Williams, of Portland and Dallas, and Donald Bell, a New York manufacturer. The price paid for-the property by the syndicate is announced at $dOU,UUU. have strengthened their forces and it The deal was closed March 25, but was is not likely that the next thrust will announced only this week, be any more effective in achieving a decision than that of a month ago, when the German people were told to expect a speedy triumph. "The expectation on this side, in deed, is that the battle may last well through the summer. "All the enemy's onslaughts hith erto have failed to attain their object, owine to the impossibility of using re serves and have resulted in the bot tling up of 1,500,000 men in the tri anele of Hazebrouck, Amiens and Novon. "These troops, originally supplied with a weeks' rations, are virtually starving in a devastated region which is difficult to revictual, as the ground, marshv and pitted with shell holes, is constantlv under fire. "There is a great concentration of shell fire at Mount Kemmel, which is already stripped of trees. ThiB is probably the scene of the next big at tack." A Soft Answer. The poor fellow at the end of the table looked so unhappy that even the landlady's stony heart was moved. "How do you like the chicken soup. Mr. Jones?" she asked, by way of say ing something. Oh er is this chicken soup?" he blurted out. "Certainly. How do you like it?" "Well er it's certainly very ten der," said he, apologetically. Events along the battle line in France and Belgium seem to be shap ing themselves for a resumption of the of the property great German offensive. bince the savage attack on the American forces at Seicheprev on Saturday there has been no fighting of an extraordinary nature along the front, but there have been indications that the Teutons are almost ready to resume the sledgeham mer blows they have been aiming at the allied armies, Unless recent operations have been feints, it is probable that the coming week will witness two great turning, movements bv the Germans.

They healthy take Dr, regu late liver, bowels and stomach. At the same time it was announced that 3000 of the 5500 acres are to be seeded at once in oats, so that the first crop may be gathered this year. The purchasers, who have organized the Clatskanie Land company to handle the property, have put up $50,000 to buy the necessary seed and are spend ing $20,000 for farm machinery. The remainder of the property will be devoted for the present to stock grazing. While plans in this connec tion have not been announced, it is understood that considerable stock is to be purchased. The war has resulted in a great de mand for oats to feed the great num ber of horses in the American and al lied armies, and this is understood to be the reason for planting the first crop to that grain. Later the Clatskanie Land company plans to put the land under intensive cultivation, under its own manage ment, for the raising of potatoes and other vegetables in large quantities for the Portland market. Willard N. Jones is already in charge as manager for the company. The land is said to be one of the richest tracts in Oregon, . the soil being peaty and very fertile. It is a part of 10,000 acres that have been diked and reclaimed by the Co lumbia Argicultural company. MllllllllllllllllllllllMllliailllllMIIIE There Is No Monopoly in the packing industry. Swift & Company, al though the largest packer, handles not to exceed one -eighth of the total meat production of the United States. The five large packers do not handle to exceed one-third of the total meat production of the United States. Swift & Company is not in combination with any other packer or packersto control prices. There is very active compe tition in the buying of live-stock and equally keen competition in the sale of dressed meats and by-products.

General Per shing's first report on the German as sault upon the American and French forces in the Toul sector Saturday is understood to indicate that the Amer icans sustained more than 200 casual ties and to estimate the German losseB at between 300 and 400. It was learned Monday night that the report had been received, but War depart ment officials refused to make it pubile or to comment upon persistent reports about the department concerning its contents. Secretary Baker is understood to be awaiting more details before making an announcement, though he probably will lay the information received be fore the , house military committee when he appears to tell of his trip abroad. The Germans claim to have captured 183 Americans and to have killed and wounded many more, and so far there has been no official American answer to the claim. This situation will re sult in a revival of consideration at the War dpeartment of the pro that a daily statement be issued from headquarters of the American expedi tionary forces. The explanation heretofore given for the refusal to accede to the pro posal has been that American troops are part of and are co-operating with larger French and British units, and that an independent American com muinque would necessarily duplicate British and French statements. It is realized, howe-er, that German claims, unless specifically denied from authoritative sources, will be regarded as statements of fact with inevitable resulting anxiety to the people in this country. For that reason Secretary Baker is disposed to reopen the whole question with General Pershing. commissions before they will be acted upon . by the national commission. Heretofore the railroads have been ap plying for rate increases to Washing ton, D. C, and the first intimation the shippers or the state commissions re ceived that a change was contemplated was when the new rate was approved by the Interstate commission.
