Mrs. Mary Moran and son, William, entertained THE PLAINDEALER force at dinner Wednesday. The occasion was brought about through a sympathetic feeling for the "faith ful" who have been struggling to make this great advocate of justice and right grow bigger, brighter and better. It was a feast fit to grace the table of a king, and the half-starved mob of printers, stenographers and bookkeepers did full justice to all that was set before them. We ate, laughed and talked till nearly a half day of the boss' time (who happened to be out of the city) was consumed. Mrs Moran is a splendid cook, and it was whispered among the force that a certain prosperous widower is preparing to press his claim more vigorous. Mr. West of Oklahoma and Miss Anna V. Allen were among the diners. Our only wish is that Mrs. Moran will call us more often.

BEFORE USING
WONDERFUL HAIR GROWER
Because it enters the scalp of all diseases and stops the hair at once from fading out, and starts at once to growing. During my many years of research, it devouring found something to improve my own hair, in preparations manufactured by others. I was always unsuccessful, until through the Divine Providence of that I was permitted in a dream to discover the preparation that I am now placing at the disposal of the creants who are today in the same condition that I was in just three years ago.
I fifteen years ago my hair began breaking off and falling out, and I tried everything mentioned to me without any result, until I discovered the preparation that at I am now placing on the market. This has proven to be the most wonderful preparation for the growth of the hair ever discovered and it is positively guaranteed to grow and stop the hair at once from falling out when used as directed.
There are thousands of persons in the United States desiring my preparations, all of whom are being benefited in the same way, and there is nothing at words of praise for my goods coming from all sections of the country.
The pictures above show the improvement in my hair after three years' use. These cuts were made from my own personal photographs. The one with short hair was taken before I ever dreamed of of my discovery. The ones with the hair own show the improvement made after three years' use.

Your Last Chance TO GET A FREE ORCHARD HOME
at First Cost direct from the Government where water can be secured for irrigation. What better offer could any man want than to secure good Colorado Fruit Land at $1.75 per acre, exclusive of water rights, with the guarantee of a reliable water company that plenty of water for irrigation will be supplied by April 1910, in time for next year's crop.
The success of the Colorado fruit grower has created the greatest demand for fruit land in Colorado that has ever been known. Raw lands adjoining the cultivated tracts in the older fruit growing sections are being sold at from $100 to $450 per acre, and bearing orchards bring in many cases from $1,000 to $4,000 per acre. Colorado fruits bring highest prices in the markets of the world and big fortunes will be made by those who secure good fruit lands now. Colorado has only one crop of fruit land and it is becoming scarcer every year. Sixteen thousand acres of fertile fruit land in the Southern Ute Indian Reservation, near Durango, Colo., will be thrown open to settlers by the United States Government through the State Land Board of Colorado by drawing to be held at Ignacio, Colorado, on July 15th.
If you want to take advantage of the exceptionally liberal offer of the Government, to secure an ideal orchard home in one of the best fruit growing sections of the state, make up your mind at once to secure reliable information about the opening this of 16,000 acres of the best fruit land that will give an opportunity to hundreds of industrious people from all walks of life to enjoy the large profits to be secured growing fruit where abundant sunshine, fertile soil and irrigation combined create the best conditions on earth for fruit growing.
Drawing July 15 at Ignacio, Colo.
Under auspices of the State Land Board of Colorado,by authority of the Department of the Interior, under the terms of the Carey act, at one dollar and seventy-five cents per acre, exclusive of water rights. If you want good fruit land, this is the opportunity of your life.

Water for Irrigation
The water supply is far in excess of any possible need. The reservoir is a natural wonder, holding as it does 60,000 acre-feet of water. This is also augmented by the uormal flow of Pine River, which in itself would be more than sufficient. All construction work will be under the direct supervision of the State Board of Land Commissioners and State Engineer. This includes all ditches and laterals. The construction company has also put up a heavy bond with the state for the fulfillment of all water contracts with the settler. Thus you are assured absolute safety under direct state and national supervision on your water-rights.
Each settler under the company's contract with the state is allowed one second-foot to each eighty acres. This is equivilent to a depth of nine inches of water each month over the entire farm. Not half of this quantity is ever required, even for crops which demand liberal watering.
