PLOT OWNERS AWAIT MOON'S DARK PHASE TO PLANT POTATOES

The summer gardeners are in no lurry with their potatoes. A reporter, ho never planted anything nearer he vegetable line thaan a wild ccum-1 ier, asked Mrs. Elizabeth Candler how work in the pardeu plots was progressing. "Oh, they can't plant now. They have to wait until the dark of the moon," Mrs. Candler replied. On further explanation it appeared that there is a superstition that potatoes planted at any time when the moon Is shining at night will grow above ground, but the tubers in the ground will not develop. Planting has, therefore, stopped, and there will be no activities in the garden line until some time between May 6 and 13, when the last quarter of the moon fades and a full moon arrives. Other Seeds Planted. Many of the amateur agriculturalists have already planted beans, radishes, onions and other vegetables no affected by the place the moon occupies in .the heavens. Some have planted corn and have plants three or four inches above ground. Four acres are under cultivation east of the river, and about the same amount west of the river, divided into many small lots. There are no more lets on the list, to be given out, and in the past week several extra lots had to be found to accommodate some tardy persons who desired to work sum- . mer gardens. Nearly all of the gardners are showing unflagging interest. With some of them, it is almost a matter of eating .later on, although many are doing the work because of their interest in gardening and their preference for homegrown vegetables. One of the most interested of the gardeners is a school boy who ' spent part, cf his time in White's institute. At the state institution he learned to keep a garden, and he became so interested, that the garden here occupies all his time. He arises at daybreak and works until it is time for breakfast, and then continues his labors after school hours, retiring early so he can start in aagin vigorously the netx morning. Causs cf Sleeplessness. Sleeplessness often results from a disordered ttcmaoh. Correct that and you can sleep as well as ever. Mrs. I Mae Ingersoll, Pulaski. N. Y., was troubled with indigestion and headache. "I was so restless at night," she says, "that I could not sleep. Chamberlain's Tablets were so highly recommended that I got a bottle of them and soon after I began taking them I was very much improved. Two bottles of them cured mo." Obtainable everywhere. adv. ROOSEVELT EXPLAINS Continued From Page One. I had been appealed to by thousands of citizens. In New York the situation was, I may say. trembling on a hair as to whether all business would be stopped and all institutions shut down. I received word one night that early next mcrning two representatives of the steel corporation, Mr. Frick and Judge Gary, would call on me. Want Immediate Action. "I notified the attorney general to meet them, but he was in Baltimore. I then asked Elihu Root, an astute lawyer to meet them with me. Mr. Frick and Judge Gary reported to me that if the steel corporation Mr. Morgan's company took possession at once of the Tennessee company it would be of such value to the T. C. & I. ('. stock, that they were sure the storm would be weathered and the panic stopped. This they said was the general sentiment. "On the advice of the attorney general and Mr. Root and on the statement by Frick and Gary that they did nor want the T. C. A. I. stock but knew it io be the only way to stop the punii. I ratified the deal. I aske.d them if wo could not defer the action for further i-onsultation. "Mr. Frick and Judge Gary replied th;t if the action were not taken and published before the market opened that day It would be too late and financial ruin would be inevitable. "I acted. I called in the newspaper men. The action was published and the panic of 1907 stopped." BANISH SCROFULA. Mocd's Sarsaparllla Cleanses the Blood Skin Troubles Vanish. Scrofula eruptions on the face and ; body are both annoying and disfigur-; ing. Many a complexion would be' perfect if they were not present! i This disease shows itself in other as. as bunches in the neck, inflamed eyelids. t.ore ears, wasting of the muscies. a form of dyspepsia, and general debility. Ask your druggist for Hood's Sareaparilla. This great medicine com-; pletely eradicates scrofula. It purifies I and enriches the blood, removes hum-! ors, and builds up the whole system. It has f-tocd the test of forty years, and has received thousands of testimonials of the entire satisfaction it has given. Scrol'ula is either inherited or ac quired. Better be sure you are quite i free from it. Get Hood's Sarsaparilla and begin taking it today Adv. i

The folk-dancing in costume will be a feature of the festival. They are interesting drills given the school children arrayed in patriotic raiment, representing various European nations. At both exhibitions, large audiences are expected.

Contracts have been let for the paving of North Ninth street from Main to North A, and South Fifth from Main to South A. Contracts will soon be let for the paving of South A from Fifth to Sixteenth street, Sixth street from South A to Fort Wayne avenue, and North Fifth from Main to North A.

GRANDMA USED SAGE TEA TO DARKEN HAIR She made up a .nixture of Sage Tea and Sulphur o bring back color, gloss, thickness. ' Common garden sage brewed into a heavy tea with sulphur and alcohol added, will turn gray, streaked and faded hair beautifully dark and luxuriant, remove every bit of dandruff, stop 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's Sage and Sulphur Compound," thus avoiding a lot of muss. While wispy, gray, faded hair is not sinful, we all desire to retain our youthful appearance and attractiveness. By darkening your hair with Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur.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 morning all gray hairs have disappeared, and. after another application or two, your hair bocomes beautifully dark, glossy, soft and luxuriant.
