To remember the visit OF the Very

American public OF that day. In the
tribute which he pays to America as
a nation and to the Irish as race
he refers repeatedly TO the expert
ence OF other nations and the part
that drink had In their downfall.
Some extracts from his talk fol.

THE SENSATIONAL FEATURE.
In the senate the most sensational
feature Of this session. was the un-
avafling effort In which insurgents
were most active. to unseat William
Lorimer as junior senator from Illinois,
on the ground Of alleged bribery In
connection with his election by the
legislature of that state In the spring
Of 1903. The echoes of that battle are
still reverbera&tng and its bitterness
adds friction to the closing hours of
the senate session.
Another important recent action Of
the senate was the defeat of the reeo-
luton embodytng a proposed amend.
ment to the constitution Of the United
States to provide for the direct cleo
ton of senators by the people.
This resolution received more than

Here is what North Dakota wo-
man says:
Partisan Sage certainly has done
my hair a lot Of good. and will highly
recommend 1t as a very good tonic for
the hair Have used various kinds Of
tonics and have found Partisan Sage
the best. I have my head free from
dandruff now, and 1t has healthy lus-
ter and has an even color. 1t used to
be streaky. Many of my friends are
using 1t and they speak highly of it,"

Always bear In mind that there is
nothing for the hair that can compare
with Partisan Sage. There are many
