CONFEREES SETTLE
IMMIGRATION BILL
Matter of Entrance of Japanese
Left as a Sort of a Gentle
mems Agreement.
MEASURE IS SATISFACTORY

Washington, Jan. 7Y-.Senate and
house conferecs on the immigration
bill virtually agreed after a confer
ence with Secretary Lansing yester-
day to accept the measure in the form
that it passed the senate, without
mention of Japanese among persons
to be excluded. That would leave
the present gentlemen's agreement
regarding the entrance of Japanese
laborers into the United States un-
changed.
The secretary was asked to make
clear to the conferees particularly
the views of the Japanese and Italian
governments. He is understood to
have explained that the Italian gov
eminent believes some provisions re-
garding inspection on immigrant
ships are in contravention of treaty
rights, and that the Japanese en-
bassy feels that some of the phrase
ology relating to oriental exclusion
is not entirely as favorable as that
agreed upon in the last session OF
congress. They are said, however, to
be no more than differences of word.
ing and members of the committee
expressed confidence tonight that the
BILL as perfected, will entirely satisfy
both governments. The bill probably
will be reported early next week and
prompt action is expected in both
houses.

Ladies! Darker
YourGray Hair
Look years younger! Use Grand
mothers recipe of Sage Tea and
Sulphur and nobody will know.

The use of Sage and Sulphur for re-
storing faded, gray hair to its natural
color dates back to grandmother's
time. She used it to keep her hair
beautifully dark, glossy and attractive.
Whenever her hair took on that dull,
faded or streaked appearance, this
simple mixture was applied with won
derful effect.
But brewing at home is mussy and
out-of-date. Nowadays, by asking at
any drug store for a s0-cent bottle Of
"Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Com
pound" you will get this famous old
preparation, improved by the addition
of other ingredients, which can be de-
pended upon to restore natural color
and beauty to the hair.
A well-known downtown druggist
says it darkens the hair so naturally
and evenly that nobody can tell it has
been applied. You simply dampen a
sponge or soft brush with it and draw
this through your hair, taking one
strand at time. By morning the
gray hair disappears, and after another
application or two, it becomes beauti-
fully dark and glossy.
Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Com
pound is delightful toilet requisite
for those who desire a more youthful
appearance. 1t is not intended for the
cure, mitigation or prevention of dis
ease.
