BIGGEST FAIR IN YEARS ¢Continued from first page.) eral weeks before the books can be closed and the exact figures obtained. Farmers planned the Minnesota fair of 1912, and farmers turned out to support it and made it a success. C. W. Glotfelter of Waterville, presi- dent of the Minnesota State Agricul- tural society, the board of managers of which conducts the state fair, said last night. The plan of the board was to subordinate the exposition and entertainment features to the agri- cultural interests to the end that the purpose of these annual shows, which primarily is to encourage agriculture NOW ON CHICAGO Chicago, Sept. 9.—The attention of the numerous devotees-of the avia- tion sport throughout the world is focused upon the big aviation fields in Clearing, a short distance beyond the city limits in a southwesterly di- rection, where a great international aviation contest to extend over two weeks, opened today with the inter- national race for the Gordon Ben- nett cup. This is considered the mosi important of the contests and never before has the number of en- tries for the race been so great. Six countries, including the United States, England, France, Belgium, Holland and Switzerland, sent their speediest machines and most noted avaiators to this country for that race, making in all thirteen starters in the great cup event. America is represented by a new Burgess ma- chine especially built for this event at a cost of $15,000. It has a 160 horsepower engine and is expected to develope a speed of 125 miles an hour, considerably more than the in all its branches, should be promot- ed in the fullest degree. That it had succeeded each member of the board was firmly convinced that the farm- ers who attended the fair were satis- fied that the board in as far as its means permitted, planned and ar- ranged every detail with the view of promoting rural activities. “While the farmers of Northern Minnesota think that the state fair is held too early, the great majority of our people are completely satisfied,” declared President Glotfelter last night while waiting for the confer- ence of the managers. OVER THE 'CABLES ACID ON MONA LISA. London, Sept. 9.—The Paris cor- respondent of “Truth” claims to have discovered the real secret of the dis- appearance of the Mona Lisa from the Louvre. “A photographer’s employee, wish- ing to avenge himself on the world at large for what he thought his wrongful dismissal,” she says, “spread sulphuric acid over the por- trait. This happened a ygar or two before the world learnt of the theft. “The picture supposed to have been stolen was, in fact, a copy. As long as there was any hope of restoring the original the substitute was left in the familiar frame under a glass pane. When all hopes of restoring the original were given up and when certain visitors were beginning to Whisper their doubts about the pic- ture under the glazed frame, the sub- stitute was taken out and very like- ly thrown into the fire. Possibly the original panal, a worthless piece of *wood, met with the same fate. “The Government officials were not long in perceiving the improbability of the theft although the police were allowed to follow this scent.” TORTOISE TAKES VACATION. London, Sept. 9.—At the age of 200, or thereabouts, the Duke of Beaufort’s pet tortoise has just tak- “en a vacation. Deserting his favorite rock in the forest of Wentwood, near Chepstown, Monmouthshire, it under- took a walking tour, and was found by one of the duke’s keepers, near Newport, nine miles away. It had taken the tortoise exactly twenty- eight days to cover the distance. The Beoufort family records show it has been on the estate for at least 150 Years, Labor Congress of Canada. Guelph, Ont., Sept. 9.—Represen- tatives of the brain and brawn of organized labor in the Dominion filled the Armouries’ building in this city thois morning when President James C. Watters called to order the twenty-eighth annual meeting of the Trades and Labor Congres sof Can- ada. The attendance at the open- ing was the largest and probably the most representative in the history of the organization’s annual meetings. Seated as guests of hanor on the speakers platform were J. Keir Har- die, the noted British labor leader and member of parliament, and John T. Smith of Kansas City, who was Dresent as a fraternal delegate from the American Federation of Labor. The exchange of greetings, appoint- ment of committees and other routine business occupied the initial session. The business of the convention will probably last an entire week. The elght-hour bill, immigration laws, the Workingmen's compensation acts, the alien labor act and other legislative measures, both federal and provin- eial, are to be exhaustively discussed by the congress. Keep Watch on Conversation. Nothing in the home life needs to be more carefully watched and more diligently cultivated than the con- versation; it should be imbued with the spirit of love. No bitter word should ever be spoken.—J. R. Miller. Make Use of Time. ! Know the true value of time; pnatch, seize and enjoy every moment of it.

Some of the world’s most famous fiyers are among the pilots sent over for this event from foreign coun- tries. Several of them are using De- perdussin monoplanes, which have developed remarkable speed at form- er trials. Other machines represented in the race are Bleriot, Henriot, Qertz and several less noted makes. Following the Bennett race, from Thursday to Sunday inclusive, there will be handicap and scratch races. Among the most spectacular events will be accuracy tests, in which the contestants will be required to as- cend to an elevation of 1,000 feet, shut ofl their motors and glide down as near as possible to a .specified point on the ground. The second week of the meet will be devoted to hydro-aeroplane- contests off Grant Park. A station for hydro-aero- planes has been established at Clar- endon beach and the water-air boats will be required to fly to Grant Park every morning and return to Claren- den beach at night. During the sec- ond week there will also be exhibi- tion flights and various minor con- tests of a more or less spectacular nature, CORN AS HIGH AS TWO MEN.

BEAUTIFUL HAIR AT SMALL COST A Simple Remedy Beautifies 'the Hair, Cures Dandruff, Stops Falling Hair. What a pity it is to see so many people .with thin, wispy hair, faded or streaked with gray, and realize that most of these people might have soft, glossy,- abundant hair of beau- tiful color and lustre if they would but use the proper treatment. There is no necessity for gray hair under sixty-five years of age, and there is no excuse for anyone, young or old, [having thin, straggling hair, either full of dandruff or heavy and rank smelling with excessive oil. You can bring back the natural color of your hair in a few days and forever rid yourself of any dandruff and loose hairs, and make your hair grow strong and beautiful by using Wyeth’s Sage and Sulphur Hair Rem- edy. For generations common gar- den Sage has been used for restoring and preserving the color of the hair, and Sulphur is recognized by scalp specialists as being = excellent for treatment of hair and scalp trou- bles. If you are troubled with dandruff or itching scalp, or if your hair is losing its color or coming out, get a fifty cent bottle of Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur from your druggist, and no- tice the improvement in the appear- ance of your hair after a few days’ treatment.
