FRIDAY EVENING, HARRISBURG TELEGRAPH MARCH 27, 1914.
Wertz Is a Comer
Is General Belief;
Has Good Records
In signing Ray Wertz, the Newport
wing star, Manager George Cockill
made one of the best bargains of the
season, in the opinion of thoße who
have watched the work of Werts«
during the past two seasons.
Wertz plays the game with a con
science and is one of a few youngsters
who listen to the advice of men with
more experience. In 1912 his best
game was when he pitched against
Blaln, allowing but one hit. Newport
had two, one of which was credited to
Wertz.
Last season in a seventeen-inning
game Wertz won against the Pennsyl
vania Railroad Young Men's Christian
Association of Harrisburg; score, 4
to 3. Wertz won his own game by
hitting out a three-bagger. He al
lowed six hits, gave three bases on
balls and fanned thirteen men. Wert*
pitched for the Railroaders against
Milroy, won his game and allowed but
four hits. In this game he had a
home run. . two two-baggers and a
single. In a game against Renovo
Wertz pitched for Harrisburg Penn
sylvania Railroad Young Men's Chris
tian Association and allowed three
hits. Wertz is also a good man at
infield.
REPUBLICANS ARE GAINING
Special to The Telegraph
Passaic, N. J., March 27. Complete
returns of the Congressional pri
maries in the Seventh New Jersey dis
trict are most auspicious for the Re
publiacns and a defeat for the candi
date on tlie Democratic ticket favored
especially by President Wilson. This
is the most important industrial dis
trict outside of Philadelphia.
An analysis shows that the total Re
publican vote was more than double
that of the Democrats.

I THE NITRATE BEDS OF CHILE
1 entered Chile from the north by
way of the La Paz and Antofagasta
Railway, coming from La Paz. The long
ride over the Bolivian desert terminates
at Antofagasta, one of the leading
ports for the shipment of the nitrate
for which Chile is so famous. These
nitrate beds were discovered by George
Smith, a Scotchman, who observed that
trees and plants banked un with a
strange white substance flourished
more than others. The nitrate fields be
longed to Peru until her disastrous war
with Chile in 1879-81. At the close of
this dreadful contest Chile was vic
torious over the combined republics of
Bolivia and Peru. She took from
Bolivia its entire coastline, and from
Peru the provinces of Arica-Tacna,
which have become an Alsace and Lor
raine of South America. The treaty of
peace with Peru provided that after a
certain time these provinces should re
vert to Peru, if a plebiscite of the peo
ple should vote for this return. Since
South America was not populated like
Alsace and Lorraine, the Chileans were
.!?. flll conquered provinces
with their own people, and hence to
flay there Is small chance of Arica-
Tacna going back to Peru. Since 1881
the nitrate Industry has yielded the
Government of Chile in export taxes
n ?? rly „. h! \ lf a hiHion dollars. This en
ables Chile to buil<l up a powerful State
and still keep its taxation at a moder
ate rate. The Chileans, too, are wise
enough to know that the nitrate beds
will not last forever. Accordingly, tliev
are using the great revenues from this
source to build up libraries and sys
tems of education, as well as fine rail
ways.— Chile, the Yankeeland of South
America, Peter Mac Queen, in National
Magazine for March, 1914.
SHOE MID SULPHUR *
DARKENS GRAY HAIR
Brush Tills Through Faded, Lifeless
lXM'ks and They Become Dork,
Glossy, Youthful
Hair that loses its color and lustre,
or when it fades, turns gray, dull and
lifeless, Is caused by a lack of sulphur
in the hair. Our grandmother made
up a mixture of Sage Tea and Sulphur
to keep her locks dark and beautiful,
and thousands of women and men who
value that even color, that beautiful
dark shade of hair which is so attrac
tive, use only this old-time recipe.
Nowadays we get this famous mix
ture by asking at any drug store for a
50 cent bottle of "Wyeth's Sage and
Sulphur Hair Kemedy," which dark
ens the hair so naturally, so evenly,
that nobody can possibly tell it has
been applied. Besides, It takes off
dandruff, stops scalp itching and fall
ing hair. 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 the gray
hair disappears; but what delights
the ladies with Wyeth's Sage and Sul
phur is that, besides beautifully dark
ening the hair after a few applica
tions, it also brings back the gloss and
lustre and gives it an appearance of
abundance. —Advertisement.
