Carolina would rather not have met

where she would go to hear her IA

This speech had to be revised IN
some particulars by Bud. and the work
he knew would take up much of his
morning. The senator's speech was
"The South Of the Future" which he
would deliver when recognized by the
president Of the senate In connection
with the naval base bin, that officer
having agreed to recognize Langdon at
$50. at which time the report Of the
naval affairs committee would be re-

the tables on Peabody and Stevens and
yet win for the Altacoola site not even
the ex-newspaper man. experienced In
politics, had solved. Clearly the sena-
tor would have to do some tall think

The junior senator from Mississippi
burst into the Office with his habitual

black felt hat in its usual position on
the back Of his head, like symbol of
undying defiance.

The girl turned to one side, as

He looked at her In silence a mo-

into his bearing. Wrinkling his face
into a sneer, he stepped before the

fully. But I'll show you, you and

spoke a voice sharply behind the con-

"Yes, and while I'm doing that III

Carolina looked appealingly to
Haines to rh her Of the presence Of
this man, whose last words she knew
Haines would not believe.
But Norton had had bis say. He re-
treated to the door.

backed out and away, "you have an
idea that am dishonest, but kindly

Haines advanced and procured a

dress to Alliance Franchise.

France, for the moment, has aban-
doned her role of liberator but has
helped establish his fixed rule: That
no nation dares to affirm the right to
Cypress another nation" said Profess
sor Georges Castegnier, of the West
Point Military Academy, before the
Alliance Franchise last night.
If all the nations of the earth ever
come to form a new nationality of
their own choice, they will owe it to
France, which has ever fought for the
oppressed and for liberty to all"
Professor Castegnier's subject was
"Contempory France"
The oddities of Felix Faure's presi-
dency were sketched; the changes in
the Ministry; the Panama troubles; the
visit to the Car; the Dreyfus case and
Faure's sudden death were treated by
the speaker, who also told. Of the new
steps in France toward compulsory
education. The establishment of pop
ular universities was compared with the
free lectures to the people in the United
States. He spoke Of the first steps to-
ward the separation of Church and

Mr.. C~astegnier stated positively that
on January next, the Minister of Jus

modern set of rules of pl%eadings.

GRAY HAIRS BANIsHED.

The old idea of using sage for darken-
ing the hair is again coming in vogue.
Our grandmothers used to have dark,
glossy hair at the age of seyenty-five,
while our mothers have white hair before
they are fifty. Our grandmothers used
to make a sage tea" and apply it to
their hair. The tea made their hair soft
and glossy and gradually restored the
natural color. One objection to using
such a preparation was the trouble of
making it, especially as it had to be
made every two or three days on account
of it souring quickly. This objection has
been overcome and by asking almost
any frst-class druggist for Wyeth's Sage
and Sulphur the public can get a SUI
perior preparation of sage, with the ad-
mixture of sulphur, another valuable rem
edy for hair and scalp troubles. Daily
use of this preparation will not only
quickly restore the color of the hair but
will also stop the hair from falling out
and make it grow. 1t is sold by all
druggists for 50c. and S1.0O a bottle, or
