MAYOR Of lASALlt
PRAISES BOOZE MEN

The Illinois Retail Liquor Dealers
association recently met at La Sale,
ILL.,, in annual convention. The ad-
dress of welcome was delivered by DR.
Fl. M. Orr, mayor of the city. In his
speech the mayor praised the local
saloonkeepsrs and expressed his opin-
ion Of ali who are opposed to the sa
loon business. He said:
The saloonkeepers of La Sale have
the same standing SIS any other class
of business men. He makes himself
a useful member of society and is
always at the head and front of any,
movement that will advance the best
interests of the city. They conduct
their places as business men and In
no place in Illinois can be found a
higher grade OF saloons or a better
class of business men conducting
them"
To which the Illinois Issue makes
reply In form of questions as follows:
Mr.. Mayor. how is 1t that the sa
loonkeepers OF your city continue to
violate the state law with reference to
Sunday closing? How can men who
constantly disregard the laws of Illi-
nois lay claim to the same high stand :
ing enjoyed by other classes OF busi-
ness men?"
Mayor Orr's peculiar ideas of good
citizenship and his own conception of
the duties of public servant were
further expressed as follows:
IF we have any of those long
haired men or short-haired disap-
pointed women. I am willing to talk
with them and show them their folly.
would rather sacrifice my right
arm than to cater to their foolish
theory. When I say no, mean 1t,
and It Is final and I would willingly
submit to being drawn and quartered
before / would subscribe my name
to a Sunday closing order like Mayor
OF Chicago"
Here We have an ideal wet mayor.
The hearts of the assembled saloon
keepers must have leaped with Joy at
hearing these noble" words. The
news report of the mayors speech
The mayors remarks
were loudly applauded." From this
II must be assumed that the mayor
must have expressed the sentiments
OF the assembled liquor dealers.
Therefore they stand before the peo-
pie of the state Of Illinois as being in
accord with mayors who would make
any sacrifice rather than enforce the
laws of the state when such law-en
forcement Involves loss of saloonkeep-
ers' profits.

greatly outweigh the expense. The

COMB SAGE TEA IN
FADED OR GRAY HAIR
II Mixed With Sulphur L oarkens %
Naturally Nobody Can

Grand mother kept her hair beautt.
fully darkened, glossy and attractive
with brew of Sage Tea and Sulphur.
Whenever her hair took on that dull,
faded or streaked appearance, this
simple mixture was applied with won
derful effect. BY asking at any drug
store for "Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur
compound" you will get large bot
tie of this old-time recipe, improved
by the addition Of other ingredients,
all ready to use, for about SO cents.
This simple mixture can be depended
upon to restore natural color and
beauty to the hair.
A we'll known downtown druggist
says everybody uses Wyeth's Sage
and Sulphur Compound now because
it darkens so naturally and evenly
that nobody can tell it has been ap.
plies-it's so easy to use, too. You
simply dampen comb or soft brush
and draw it through your hair, taking
one strand at time. BY morning
the gray hair disappears; after an.
other application or two, it is restor-
ed to it's natural color and looks CLOS.
sy, soft and beautiful. This prepare.
ton is delightful toilet requisite. 1t
