The right of the meanest man of

He said the Indianapolis arrest was
apparently staged" one newspaper
having the story of the arrest set
up" and the edition held up until the
arrests could be pulled Off"
He claimed that Mcnamara was
taken before a court, which, instead
of inquiring whether he was fugi-

the personal identity of the prisoner
The witness said Mcnamara was de-
MED counsel and removed to Califor-
MIA over so many railroads that he
could not be released on habeas cor
pus proceedings.

PULL OUT
THE GRAY HAIRS
A Few Applications Of a Simple
Remedy WIN Bring Back the
Natural Color.

"Pull out one gray hair and q
dozen will take its place" Is an old
saying, which is, TO q great extent,
true, If no steps are taken to stop
the cause. When gray hairs appear
it is a sign that Nature needs as
sistance. 1t is Natures call for
help. Gray hair, dull, lifeless hair,
or hair that Is falling out, is not
necessarily a sign of advancing age.
for there are thousands Of elderly
people with perfect heads OF hair
without a single streak OF gray.
When gray hairs come, or when
the hair seems to be lifeless or dead,
some good, reliable, hair-restoring
treatment should be resorted to at
once. Specialists say that n of
the best preparations to use Is the
oId-fashiened Usage tea" which our
grandparents used. The best prepa-
ration of this kind is Wyeth's Sage
and Sulphur Hair Remedy, q prepa-
ration of domestic sage and sulphur,
scientifically compounded with later
discovered hair tonics and stimu-
lants, the whole mixture being care
fully balanced and tested by experts.
Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Is clean
and wholesome and perfectly harm
less. 1t refreshes dry, parched hair,
removes dandruff and gradually re-1
stores faded or gray hair to its
natural color.
Don't delay another minute. Start
using Wyethss Sage and Sulphur at
once and see what a difference a
few days treatment will make In
your nafr.
This preparation Is offered to the
public at fifty cents a bottle, and Ia
RECOMMENDED and sold by all drug

Irritation against others upon an unoffending dumb

And yet I have been thinking lately how many
Of us sometimes display the same spirit which, in a
more brutal form, animated the teamster.
For instance. a business man comes home from
an annoying afternoon at the Office. He is smarting,
perhaps, under a rebuke from a superior to whom he
did not dare talk back. He is full of unyenter irrf-
tation and when his wife says or does some little
thing which he does not like the dam bursts and all
the Irritation pours out upon her head. Quite fire.
quentIy this happens without any proyocation, even
the slightest, from her.
Now isn't this just dog-kicking in another form?
