SPAIN NOW FACES
A SERIOUS CRISIS
Premier Will Ignore Papal Pro-
test to the Imperial De-
cree of June II

MADRID, June 25.-Premier Canale-
tiations between the Spanish govern
of the concordat were broken off Rome
would be responsible. He said:
The full text of the Vatican's re-
ply has not been received yet. but
we know from the telegraphic
summary that is does not consti-
tute response to our note, but is
confined exclusively to protest
against the imperial decree of June
II. and is, therefore, an invasion
Of the states sovereignty, which Is
The church falsely accuses us of
an attack on the Catholic religion.
We are simply defending the SOW
ereignty of the state.
Premier Canalejas added that If the
Catholics persisted in their threats Of
a civil war he would have recourse to
the courts
A dubious element in the situation is
the attitude of King Alfonso, on whom
great influence is being exercised to
cause him to overthrow the Canalejas
ministry. At the same time the pre-
mier is holding the monarch to a strict
fulfillment of the promises which he
says Alfonso made when the present
cabinet took office.
Canalejas' religious reform policy
has aroused the bitter antagonism of
the Spanish episcopate and of Catholic
societies throughout the country. At
a recent meeting of the Catholic De-
Tense Societies 1t was announced ,tliat
before the policies outlined were per-
mitted to become law Spain would un-
dergo a perilous crisis, as Catholics
preferred civil war to the lay school
system.
The day the radical government as
sumed power Canalejas said he would
further the program of religious free
dom mapped out by the preceding min
istry. This included a revision of the
concordat> and the compelling of un-
authorized religious orders to seek
authorization under the law adopted in
1887. The establishments of some re-
,ligious orders not complying with the
terms of this law have been since
closed by the government
An imperial decree of June IL per-
mitted nom Catholic religious edifices
to display the insignia for public wor-
ship.
The Vatican protested on the ground
that the status quo should be contin-
ued until the revision of the concordat
had been completed. Canalejas replied
that If the issue of the decree was
coupled with the revision negotiations
the latter would be broken off.
The Vatican remained firm in its at
titude that the subject of the decree
must first be disposed of, and, follow
ing cabinet meeting yesterday, Ca
nalejas declared that the papal pro-
test against the decree would be ig-
nored and the governments program,
as announced, would be carried out

SAGE FOR DARKENING THE
HAIR.

There is nothing new about the idea Of
using sage for restoring the color of the
hair. Our great-grandmother kept their
locks soft, dark and glossy by using
sage tea" Whenever their hair fell out
or took on dull, faded or streaked ap-.
pearance, they made a brew of sage
leaves and applied it to their hair with
wonderfully beneficial effect. Nowadays
we don't have to resort to the old-time,
tiresome method of gathering the herbs
and making the brew. This is done by
skillful chemists better than wc could do
it ourselves, and all we have to do is to
call for the ready made product. Wyeth's
Sage and Sulphur, containing sage in the
proper strength, with the addition of
Sulphur, another old-time scalp remedy.
This preparation is sold by all frst-c7ass
druggists for SOC. and $1.00 bottle, or
is sent direct by the Wyeth Chemical
Company, "A Cortlandt ST., New York
City, upon receipt of price.
