SIR HENRY WAS A BAD AND
ROLD PIRATE IN OLDEN TIMES

they did not stand to their arms.
And, though the pirates asked him If
he would have quarter, yet he con-
stantly answered, By no means. |
had rather die as a valiant soldier
than be hanged as a coward They
endeavored as much as they could to
take him prisoner, but he defended
himself so obstoinately that they
were forced to kill him, notwith-
standing all the cries and tears of his
own wife and daughters, who begged
him on their knees to demand quar-
ter and save his life.
with blade at throat and pistol at
heart
The proud old Governor stands,
Rather to die than yield his sword
To such scoundrelly outlaw hands.
Wife at right and daughter at left,
Their pleadings are in vain
Mercy's not the buccaneers creed;
He triumphs with the slain.
And thus fell Porto Bello. The
pirates occupied the town for several
weeks, stripped it of every scrap of
loot and made the citizens pay ran
som of 100000 pieces of eight before
thew would leave. When the gov
ernor of Panama sent out force or
Spanish soldiers to drive Morgan and
his men away the pirates, instead or
fleeing to their ships, as everyone sup
posed they would, went out to meet
the soldiers, defeated them and drove
them back to Panama.
A Terrible March.
The capture of Panama was far
more remarkable achievement than
that Of Porto Bello. For Morgan and
his men marched nine days through
tropical jungles before they reached
the city. Most of the time they had
no food, for the Spaniards, who knew
they were coming, drove every COW
out of the country and burned or car
ried away every sack of grain. so
reduced were Morgan's men that they
ate strips of rawhide bags, softening
the leather by mositening it and then
pounding it between stones, then
broiling it like bacon.
The Spaniards had plentiful warn
ing of their coming, and made elab-
crate preparation for defense outside
the city of Panama; Indians aided
them and drove wild bulls against
the English buccaneers, thinking to
break their ranks. Morgan's men
laughed and killed the bulls and We're
glad to have their meat for food.
The Sack of Panama.
Thus nourished and encouraged
they swept into Panama, ravenlng
pack, and scattered far such OF Its
defenders as they did not STAY. They
STAYED there a month and burned eV-
erything movable, and sent out ships
to ravage the nearby towns on the
! Poetic coast.
/ Now. this attack had been made
just after England had concluded
peace with Spain, and as Morgan
| bore the title, bestowed on him by
| the British governor of Jamaica, OF
COMMUNICATIVE of all the ships
of war in Jamaica" Spain demanded
that he be brought to punishment.
He was sent to England in 1917
aboard a British frigate, but he toob
along enough pirate gold to smooth
| his way at court, and instead OF be
| ing punished he was knigEted ana
returned to Jamaica as lieutenant
| governor That marked the end OIL
| Morgans days of active piracy, Hf
! continued as a servant of the British
governor, and was twice acting gov
ernor of Jamaica. Great were the
rewards of piracy in those thrilling
days.

LIFE INSURANCE COMPANIES
They Are Closely Observing Pub
lie Health Conditions.

An examining physician for one of the
prominent Life Insurance Companies, in
an interview on the subject, made the
astonishing statement that one reason
why SO many applicants for insurance
are rejected is because kidney trouble is
go common to the American people, and
the large majority of those whose appli-
cations are declined do not even suspect
that they have the disease.
According to this it would seem that a
medicine for the kidneys, possessing real
healing and curative properties, would
be blessing to thousands.
DIR. Kilmer & Co., Binghamton, N. Y,
who prepare DR.. Kilmer's Swamp-R Root,
the well.known kidney, liver and bladder
remedy, claim that judging from evil
dence received from druggists every
where, who are constantly in touch with
proof in the form of grateful testimonial
letters from thousands of reliable citi-
zens, this preparation is remarkably sue
cessful in sickness caused by kidney
and bladder troubles. Every interesting
statement they receive regarding Swamp
Root is investigated and no testimonial
is published unless the party who sends
it is reported of good character. They
have on file many sworn statements of
recoveries in the most distressing cases.
They state that DIR. Kilmer's Swamp
Root is mild and gentle in its action and
its healing influence is soon noticed in
most cases.
Swamp-Root is purely an herbal COM
pound and DIR. Kilmer & Co. advise all
readers who feel in need of such a REM
edy to give it trial. 1t is on sale at all
drug stores in bottles of two sizes-50c.
and sl.0O. However. if you wish first to
test this great preparation send ten cents

If HAIR IS TURNING
GRAY, USE SAGE TEA
Don't Look oIdI Try Grandmother's
Recipe to Darken and Beautify
Gray, Faded, lifeless Hair.

Grandmother kept her hair beauti-
fully darkened, glossy and abundant
with a brew of Sage Tea and Sulphur.
Whenever her hair fell out or took on
that dull. faded or streaked appear
ance this simple mixture was applied
with wonderful effect. By asking at
any drug store for "Wyeth's Sage and
Sulphur Hair Remedy" you will get
large bottle of this old-time recipe,
ready to use, for about SO cents. This
simple mixture can be depended upon
to restore natural color and beauty
to the hair and is splendid for dam
druff, dry, itchy scalp and falling hair.
A well-known druggist says every
body uses Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur,
because it darkens SO naturally and
evenly that nobody can tell it has been
applied-it's SO easy to use, too. You
simply dampen a comb or soft brush
and draw it through your hair. taking
one strand at a time. By morning
the gray hair disappears; after an
other application or two, it is re-
stored to its natural color and looks
glossy, soft and abundant. Adv.

. Provides Severe Penalties for Treason.


Denver.-Treason against the state
should not always be punished by
death, in the opinion of majority of
the members of the lower house Of
the Legislature, and they amended Ar
dourel's bill, imposing a penalty for
treason, by making it read that the
jury-as in first-degree murder cases
shall decide whether the punishment
shall be death or life Imprisonment.
The measure was introduced, with sew
eral others, following the discovery by
Ardourel during the coal strike that
the statutes of the state do not pro-
vide any penalty for treason, although
1t is defined and denounced by the
constitution. After changing the PEN
atty clause, the House passed the
measure on second reading. Represen-
tative Bruce declared that the Legis-
lature was exceeding its power in
passing the bill; that the state con-
stitution alreauy defined treason and
gave the Legislature no power to fix
a penalty. He said power to fix the
penalty was vested in Congress alone.
