Common garden sage brewed into

hair beautifully dark and luxuriant.
Just a few applications will prove a
revelation if your hair is fading,

Tea and Sulphur recipe at home,
though, is troublesome. An easier
way is to get a bottle of Wyeth's
Sage and Sulphur Compound at any
drug store all ready for use. This
is the old-time recipe improved by
the addition of other ingredients.
W hHe wispy, gray, faded hair is
not sinful, we all desire to retain
our youthful appearance and attrac

with Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur
Compound, no one can tell, be
cause 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 morning all
gray hairs have disappeared, and,
after another application or two,
your hair becomes beautifully dark,
glossy, soft and luxuriant. Adv.

Aged War Veteran
Finds That He Did
Not Comply With Law
After waiting 10 years to learn
whether he had really proved up on
a 160-acre homestead in Hooper
county, Neb., John M. Andrews;
aged civil war veteran, living at 1903
Vinton street, has learned,
through a decision bv Federal
Judge Hunger, that he had not com
plied with homestead laws, and that
his homestead was once more the
property, of the United States.
""Andrews admitted at a1 recent
hearing that he had merely filed
on the land, visited it once, and
received, his patent after the re
quired lenifth of time. He imme
diately sold the land to Reuben W.'
Mahaffy, of Hooper county, for
$100. The transaction took place
in 1903. The land was later con
veyed to F. S. Albright, a resident
of the same county, who, on the
same day. transferred the land back
to Mahaffy's Hvife.
T1-. government filed a suit
against Mahaffy in 1909 to revoke
the patent. Mrs. Mahaffy declared
sr.: was an innocent purchaser. The
case was decided yesterday by
Judge Hunger, and the decision reJ
ceived by Deputy Attorney Peters
today.

SEVERE STORM
HITS NEBRASKA;
HEAVY SNOWFALL
.ivestock Men Fear Big Losses
Among Sheep Raisers in
Western Part of
State.
The storm that has been hanging
over Wyoming and Colorado has
started east and yesterday, accord
ing to morning reports to the rail
road, was the most severe over
central- Nebraska. It was not cold,
temperatures ranging from 24 to 40
degrees above zero.
Western Nebraska, so say reports
to the railroads, is covered with
sncw to a depth of one to three
feet. The area buried beneath the
snow is something like 100 miles
wide and extends from far up in
Wyoming, down through Colorado
and into Kansas.
Snow Began Sunday.
In Wyoming and Colorado snow
commenced to fall Sunday night and
continued until Tuesday night, when
clearing weather set in. Moving
east, the storm hit western Ne
braska early Monday and still con
tinues. .
Around Alliance, Bridgport, Sid
ney, McCook and numerous other
towns in the western part of the
state there has been a continuous
fall of snow and sleet since Mon
day morning. In many localities the
snow melted nearly as rapidly as it
fell, but generally the temperature
was a littie above freezing.
However, the sribw was so wet
and heavy that it did not blow, and
consequently dufing the continu
ance of the storm there has been
nothing akjn to a blizzard.
Over Wide Area.
Yesterday reports indicated heavy
snow as far east as Hastings, Grand
Island and Nojiolk, with a steady
rain farther east arid well over into
Iowa. 1
Trains are moving on practically
schedule time, the storm not inter
fering to any great extent.
Live stock agents are apprehen
sive and are of the opinion that the
heavy snow will result in heavy
losses among the sheepmen of west
ern Nebraska, Colorado and Wyo
ming. It is said that snow and a
fall as heavy as the one of this week
will be fatal to lambs.

STATERAILWAY
COMMISSION
ATTACKS RATES
Federal Railroad Representa
tives Go Before Neb. Su
preme Court to Defend In-
trgstate Express Rates.
From a Staff Correspondent.
Lincoln, April 9. Three represen
tatives of different departments of
the federal government appeared be
fore the Nebraska supreme court
Wednesday to defend the right of
the director general to initiate intra
state express rates in Nebraska,
which are attacked by the Nebraska
railway commission in an application
to the court for a writ of mandamus
to compel the American Railway Ex
press company to install" the com
mission's rates, instead of those
originated by the administration.
Government representatives were
former Senator Norris Brown, of
Omaha, counsel in Nebraska for the
express company; Judge R. V.
Fletcher of Washington, D. C, rep
resenting Director General Walker
D. Hines, and Blackburn Esterline of
Washington, D. C, special assistant
to Attorney General A. Mitchell
Palmer.
Congress Authorized Change.
The Nebraska commission was
represented by its counsel, Hugh La
Master and Commissioner V. W.
Wilson.
The commission contended that
the act of congress authorizing the
taking over of national transporta
tipn lines, while allowing the presi
dent to initiate rates, made them
subject to revision, undor the inter
state commerce commission law
which deals only with interstate
rates and leaves all intrastate rate
making power in the hands of state
commissions.
Attorney La Master raised a point
that the iederal rates had been made
after the signing of the armistice
and the war emergency had been de
clared past by President Wilson.
The argument of the defense was
that the act of congress placing all
police powers in the hands of the
president gave the president exclu
sive power over rates.
Final Hearing Postponed.
The commission's suit was filed
as an original action in the Nebras
ka supreme court, December 31, and
an alternative writ was issued, re
quiring the American railway ex
press to install the Nebraska rates
or show cause. The express com
pany put the federal rates into ef
fect the following day, January 1.
The final hearing on the issue has
been postponed from time to time
to allow government officials to
prepare their defense.

CO-OPERATIVE
BANK BILLGETS
HEARTY SUPPORT
Farmers' Associations May
Distribute Profits to Stock
holders or Members; Meas
ure Goes Third Reading.
From a Staff Correspondent.
Lincoln, April 9. (Special.)
AJter a motion to postpone indefi
nitely the farmers'4 co-operative
bank bill failed in the house Wed
nesday morning, the measure was
advanced to third reading. The bill
authorizes farmers' co-operative
banks to distribute their profits on
the co-operative plan.
The motion by Mr. Gerhart to kill
the bill was voted. down, 29 to 52.
Before the bill was sent to third
reading, Mr. Jeary had it amended
by substituting the words "stock
hfclders or members" instead of "de
positors," the purpose being to re
move an objection that co-operative
banks would violate the guaranty
law if they should rebate profits to
depositors so as to give them more
than a 5 per cent return, that" being
the limit of interest which may be
paid by banks to depositors.
Osterman Leads Fight
Mr. Osterman, minority leader,
who piloted-the grain exchange bill,
the Union Pacific, right-of-way bill,
and the hail insurance bill through
the house, also led the fight in be
half of the co-operative bank bill.
Mr. Jeary declared that the bill
was class legislation and he
wouldn't support.it on that account.
To this objection, Mr. Osterman re
plied that practically every bill in
troduced involved some kind of
class legislation.
Farmers Control Banks.
The idea -that the banking busi
ness is a monopoly and that it
yields "fabulous profits" was scouted
by Mr. Good, a banker. He said
that nearly all the small towns of
the state have banks organized and
controlled by farmers, which com
pete with' the other banks. He had
voted for the grain exchange bill
because that involved a monopoly,
