Be PRETTY! TURN
GRAY HAIR DARK
Look Young! Nobody Can Tell if You
Use Grandmother's Simply Recipe
of Sage Tea and Sulphur. -.

Almost everyone knows that Sage
Tea and Sulphur, properly compound
ed, brings back the natural color and
lustre to the hair when faded, streak
ed or gray; also ends dandruff, itch
ing scalp and stops falling hair.
Years ago the only way to get this
mixture was to make it at home,
which is mussy and troublesome.
Nowadays, by asking at any drug
store for "Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur
Hair Remedy" you will get a large
bottle of this famous old recipe for
about so cents. @~. x d, IS
Don't stay gray! Try it! No one
can possibly tell that your darkened
your hair, as it does it 80 naturally
and evenly. You dampen a sponge
or soft brush with it and draw this
through your hair, taking one small
strand at a time; by morning the gray
hair disappears, and after another ap-
plication or two, your hair becomes
beautifully dark, thick and glossy.

Senator Agrees to Postpone Action
on Resolution. T.

Washington, Sept. "a resolution
to direct the senate banking commit
tee to withhold final action on the ad-
ministration. currency bill until the
December session of congress was in
troduced by Senator Weeks of Massa-
chusetts, Republican. Suggestions by
Senators Reed, Owen and other Dem
ocrats on the committee, that they
would like to discuss the resolution,
resulted in Senator Weeks agreeing
that it should go over without action.
There is no emergency at the pres
ent time that has not existed in an
equal degree for the past two years
which would necessitate banking and
currency legislation" said he.

--POr ahora seguiran las cosas tai
como estan; Ell la actual session extraor-
dmaria del Congreso no Sc legislara po-
con respecto Puerto Rico !;
este Sc hara probablemente en- la session
ordinaria de Diciembre. Puedo decirles
a 4llstedes que he hablado con los miem-
bros del Gabinete Wilson todos ellos
estan animados de los. mejores deseos
para la iSla, a la que tienen ell prop6sito
de visitar pr6ximamente.
Despues hablamos de Jas leyes de Rem
tas Internas y de Patentes. Cree ell Go
bernadOr q. son beneficiosas para ell pals.
prlncipalmente la de Patentes, pues es-
TINA que es precise arbitrar recursos
para el sOstenimientO de las escuelas ne
cesarlas, para que puedan adquirir ms
trucci6n mas de ciento cincuenta mil
nlnos que ahora Sc ven .imposibilitados
de obtenerla. Despues >de todo,-aila-
di6-, quien ha de pagar las patentes es
ell pueblo, va que a fin de resarcirse del
almentO las casas de comercio han subj
do ell precio de los articulos que venden.
y sin embargo aquel no protesta.
Ell Gobernador adujo argrmentos pa
ra demostrar la necesidad de que sub
slstan las nuevas leyes que tan debatidas
han sdo.
Y termin6 la entrevista dici6ndonos ::
La ley de Patentes es justa por 10
mlSmo no la Clerogaremos; 81 ella tiene
defectos y es precise corregirlos Sc CORE
giran, pero derogara, ESQ no.
