resolution directing the President to con-
vey to Great Britain the sentiment of
the Senate that the sentence of death
pronounced on Sir Roger Easement
should not be carried out, yesterday stir
red up that body and led to a number of
brief but spirited speeches. Senator
o'Gorrnan, of New York, insisted that the
Revolutionary war was fought by the
Irish for the most part: that II Sir Roger
Easement is a traitor then George Wash
ington. Samuel Adams, and John Han
cock were also.
Senator Phelan asserted that so per
cent of the Continental soldiers were of
Irish birth or Irish extraction. Senator
McCumber questioned 1t and asked II any
Americans were engaged In the struggle,
This aroused Senator o'Gornan, who re-
piled:
IF the Senator meant real Americans,
there were none of them fighting in the
Continental army. They were in the en-
ploy Of the British army, receiving re-
wards for the use Of the tomahawk and
the scalping knife IN trying to suppress
the patriotic aspirations of an outra ged
people. If you mean the American OF

Common garden sage brewed into a

Sage Tea and Sulphur recipe at home.
though, is troublesome. An easier way is
to get 50-ecnt bottle of Wyeth's Sage
and Sulphur Compound at any drug store
all ready for use. This is the old time
recipe improved by the addition Of other
ingredients.
While wispy, gray, faded hair is not
sinful. we all desire to retain our youth
FIJI appearance and attractiveness. BY
darkening your hair with Wyeth's Sage
and Sulphur Compound, no one can tell,
because it does it so naturally, so evenly.
You just dampen a sponge or soft brush
with it and draw this through your hair,
taking one small strand at time; by
morning all gray hairs have disappeared,
and, after another application or two,
your hair becomes beautifully dark,
glossy, soft and luxuriant.
This preparation is a delightful toilet
requisite and is not intended for the cure,
mitigation or prevention Of disease. {
