e The backbone of the Southern Confederacy was broken at the battle of Missionary Ridge, Chattanooga. This engagement was fought on the evening of November 25, 1863, and resulted in a complete victory for the Unlon army under Gen, U. S. Grant. The latter's headquarters during the battle were at Orchard Knob, and the order to advance on the Confederate position at the foot of the Ridge, a mile distant, was given at 4 o'clock. It was necessary for the Union troops to advance across a level and comparatively open plain, under terrific fire from the enemy’s cannon on the crest of the ridge and its rifle pits at the base and half way up the ridge. In one hour after the order to advance had been fired from six cannons, the sighal agrecd upon, the crest of the ridge had been swept by the Union troops and the Confederates were in retreat. The conclusion of this bat- tle Jeft the Chattanooga valley in control of the Union army and opened the way for the campaign to Atlanta, and Gen. Sherman's march to the sea, practically ending the war. Since the war, the crest of Missionary Ridge has been vonverted into a government reservation in part, a good road has been constructed the entire length of the ridge from Sherman Heights to Chickamauga, and meny handsome state memorials have been erected on the sides and crest of the eminence. service has been supplied, and Missionary Ridge to-day is a beautiful place to visit. Chattanooga’s more wealthy citizens have built homes on the ridge, trolley A reunion of the survivors of the battle of Missionary Ridge will be held at some point on the crest of the ridge during the 47th national en- campment of the Grand Army of the Republic in September. No battle of greater importance was fought in the Southwes:t during the Civil War than that of Missionary Ridge. It opehied & road into the heart of the South for the union armies.

BAILEY, MINNESOTA NOBODY CAN TELL THAT YOU DARKENED YOUR GRAY, FADED HAIR WITH SAGE TEA MIXED WITH SULPHUR MAKES HAIR SOFT, LUSTROUS AND CURES - DANDRUFF. The use of Sage and Sulphur for re- storing faded, gray hair to its natural color dates back to grandmother’s time. She kept her hair beautifully darkened, glossy and abundant, with a brew of Sage Tea and Sulphur. ‘Whenever her hair fell out or took on that dull, faded or streaked appear- ance this simple mixture was applied with wonderful effect. But brewing at home is mussy and out-of-date, Nowadays skilled chem- ists do this better than ourselves. By agking at any drug store for the ready -to-use product—called “Wyeth’s Sage and Sulphur Hair Remedy”—you will get a large bottle for about fifty cents. Some druggists make their own, which is usually too sticky, so . insist upon getting “Wyeth’s” which can be depended upon to restore natural color and beauty to the hair and is splendid for dandruff, dry, feverish, itchy scalp and falling hair. i A well-known - downtown druggist says his customers insist on Wyeth’s Sage and Sulphur, because, they say, it darkens so naturally and evenly that nobody can tell it has been ap- plied—it's so easy to use teo. You simply dampen a sponge or soft brush and draw it through yur hair, taking one strand at a time, Do this at night and by morning the gray hair disappears: after another application or two, it is restored to its matural color #nd looks glossy, soft and abun. dant.—Ady, 1 o fe b e b b e ofe b e o b b b b ok b e e e GEORGE M’ANENY.
