GRANDMOTHER
USED sage TEA

It is easier to preserve the color of
the hair than to restore it, although it
is possible to do both. Our grand.
mothers understood the secret. They
made 'sage tea," and their dark,
glossy hair long after middle life was
due to this fact. Our mothers have
gray hairs before they are eifty, but
they are beginning to appreciate the
wisdom of our grandmothers in using
sage tea" for their hair and are fast
following suit.
The present generation has the adj
vantage Of he past in that it can get
ready-to-use preparation called
Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Hair Rem
edy. AS a scalp tonic and color re-
storer this preparation is vastly supe-
rior to the ordinary "sage tea" made
by our grandmothers.
This remedy is sold under guaran-
tee that the money will be refunded
if It fails to do exactly as represented.
If your hair is losing color or CON-
ing out, start using Wyeth's Sage and
Sulphur today, and see what change
it will make in few days time.
This preparation is offered to the
public at fifty cents bottle, and is
recommended and sold by all drug.

Job Hartman, an attorney now asso-
ciated with Mr.. barrow in the Nc
Namara defense, questioned before
the coronsfs jury two operators who
were in the Times telegraph room
at the time Of the explosion, and they
testified that strong odor Of gas
led them to believe that gas had
wrecked the building. Afterward
Hartman declared that the counter
theory of a gas explosion would be
used by the defense to combat the
dynamite theory of the prosecution.
Judge Walter Bordwell Of the SUI
perior court had by this time empan-
elled a special grand jury. After 100
days of investigation, during which
ia witnesses. mostly from San Fran

themselves against the accusation
that they caused the destruction OF

hour after midnight on the morning
Of October 1, 1910.

be able to rend asunder the case of
the prosecution, and that their clients
will walk forth free men.
This bomb that did not explode and
which was found beside the house of
Felix Zeehandelaar, an official Of
the Los Angeles Merchants and Man
ufacturers' association, has supplied
the clew that has solved, at least to
the satisfaction of the prosecution,
the mystery of how the building of
the Los Angeles Times was de-
stroyed. The clew is traced back to
the Mcnamara brothers through a
claim Of alleged circumstances and
facts. The case of the state, how.
ever, has been described by one of
the attorneys for the defense as a
"flimsy fabric of circumstances" and
nothing has developed 80 far to show
that the prosecution has any direct
evidence to prove that James B. Nc
Namara set the bombs at the Times
building and at the homes of General
KSrrison Grey Otis, the proprietor of
the Times, and Mr.. Zeehandelaar.
Nothing on this point appears in the
transcript of evidence taken before
the grand jury.

spiracy born of hate engendered by

During this month nothing was
heard from Detective Burns by any
one excepting Mayor Alexander, who
was called on from time to time to
supply funds from the $4,000 set
aside by the city council to finance
the Investigation. Given the idea by
the clockwork mechanism of the Zee
handelaar- bomb, the detective and
his assistants went to work on the
theory that the men responsible for
series of crimes in the east, in
which structural steel work being
done by members of the National
Erectors' association, an open-shop
organization. had been destroyed, had
