SIMII4A, India. Jan. 5.-Many storiek
have appeared at various times to tire
effect that India was on the verge OF
an armed revolt Though the revolution
has not materialized, the question OF
the real attitude Of the people still
furnishes material for speculation
abroad. To all outward appearances
the traveller today finds India as peace
full as America. but the waters of sedt
ton run deep and to learn the facts
correspondent of The Associated Press
has interviewed many people-Ameri-
can residents, British officials and
business men, Indian subjects of vary
ing rank in private life, and conserva-
tive and radical Indian politicians,
both Mohammedian and Hindu.
The vast majority of the 315,00O,O0O
inhabitants are peace-loving folk who
are opposed to all ideas of revolution
airy Bloodshed. The illiterate class,
which forms the bulk of the popula-
ton, have little or no interest in pol
itics.t The educated people of the law
abiding section, whether they be ul-
tla-radical home rule advocates or not,
desire to remain part of the British
empire feeling that the protection Of
Great Britain Is essential to the wei
fare of India. Most of them look for
ward to the time when India will oc-
cupyl position similar TO that Of
Canada and Australia; many assert
India is ready for the change now. but
they all hope to achieve their aims by
peaceful methods. and in all events do
not desire a total severance from
England.
SeditiOus Unrest in Many Sections.
There is certain amount or sedi-
tious unrest in various sections but the
people who harbor revolutionary ideas
are declared to be negligible in num-
Der. The cliques are more or less in
dependent of one another and are COM
posed largely of men who have re-
cei7ed smattering of European edu-
cation. The majority have studied
with the idea of entering the govern
ment service. Naturally, there are not
enough civil service positions to go
around. and as these men feel that
having acquired polish, they are above
returning to the trades of their
fathers, they find themselves without
means of making livelihood. For this

FEW FOLKS HAVE
GRAY HAIR NOW
Well.Known Local Druggist Says Ev.
erybOdy is Using Old-Time Recipe
of Sage Tea and Sulphur.

Hair that loses it's color and lustre,
or when it fades. turns gray, ull and
lifeless, is caused by lack of sui
phur in the hair. Our grandmother
made up a mixture of Sage Tea and
Sulphur to keep her locks dark and
beautiful, and thousands of women and
men who value that even color, that
beautiful dark shade of hair which is
so attractive. use only this o1d-time
decipe.
Nowadays we get this famous mix
ture improved by the addition of other
ingredients by asking at any drug store
for a 5O-cent bottle of "Wyeth's Sage
and Sulphur Compound" which dark
ems the hair so naturally, 80 evenly,
that nobody can possibly tell it has
been applied. You just dampen a
sponge or soft brush with it and draw
this through your hair, taking one
small strand at time. BY morning
the gray hair disappears; but what de-
lights the ladies with Wyeth's Sage
and Sulphur Compound, is that, be-
sides beautifully darkening the hair
after a few applications. it also brings
back the gloss and lustre and gives
it an appearance of abundance.
Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Com
pound is delightful toilet requisite to
impart color and a youthful appear
ance to the hair. 1t is not intended
for the cure. mitigation or prevention
of disease. adVt

India is Peaceful as a Whole
Says The A. Correspondent

they blame the government. 1dleness
brings them together for discussions
Ct their alleged wrongs and they prove
fertile ground for the really educated
professional agitator to work upon.
OF the totally illiterate people great
numbers are still in the primitive
state, and their minds operate along
the same lines as did those OF their
ancestors centuries ago. Their thoughts
mainly concern their stomachs. Ii
they have enough food to stay OF hun
ger and a place in the sun they are
content. The question of who is ruling
them does not bother in the least. Many
of them undoubtedly never heard OF
England, or any other place outside
their own little sphere, and it would
be difficult to convince them that they
ought to rise in arms to GUST the gov
erning power.
Local Troubles Likely to Occur.
In a. country as vast as India there
is always a probability that local
troubles may occur. Things are quiet
at the moment but it would be unsafe
to predict that seditionists might not
stir I'D feeling which would result in
local disturbances tomorrow Such
events have occurred since the begin
ming of the war, the most pretentlons
attempt having been made In the
Puniab as the result o. conspiracy
developed among the Indian emigrants
on the Pacific coast of America, large
ly in California and Oregon. Between
five and six thousand seditionists made
their way home and into the Punjab
where for months they vainly endeav-
ored to cause general disaffectlon
among the Indian troops and the
people. There were murders and
outrages but the attempt failed, largely
because the people, having no SYM
pathy with the movement, voluntarily
turned to the aid of the government
and helped arrest many of the Of
tenders.
Aside from internal affairs is the
question of the border tribesmen at
the north. These are by nature war
like folk and fighting is their main
business. There have been number
of conflicts between them and the gov
crnment forces since the war began.
but it is declared sufficient troops are
maintained in that section to deal with
any situation.

For long time the priest was I'M
successful in his search, but finally he
thought he had found the institution
where the stray lamb of his flock

was no evidence that a.Catholic child,

As the pastor was about to retire,
an idea suddenly presented itself and
he acted on it forthwith. He asked

would be no inconvenience involved in
his seeing them.

Turning to the superintendent, the

understood that it was to- the Sign

HONOR TRE HOLY NAME.

A neWsDoy When passing the parish
church took off his cap. "A good
little Catholic" thought a passer-by
who noticed the act But, alas!
another boy running head-frst in the
opposite direction collided with the
newsboy and both went down, and
both spoke the Holy Name in anger,
not once only, but often, in the argu-
ment that would have ended in fight
if the officer on the beat had not
come around the corner at that mo-
ment. u wish that l didn't know
that that boy is a Catholic thought
The passer-by. Gle is certainly no
credit TO his teachers or his Church.
Which is quite true, young folks. II
is a very easy matter for boy, when
feeling all right, to salute as he passes
the church, but the real test OF his
respect for his God is the way he
acts when his temper flares up. Just
imagine any boy who calls himself a
Catholic indulging in profanity be-
cause another boy ran into him! He
has no respect for the Holy Name.
How pleased the devil must be when
he hears boy swear! The devil
hates God and he delights in hearing
the Holy Name used in disrespect
You may be sure he was lowering
near those two boys, gioating over
the words that fell from their lips
and saying to himself: These are
not Gods CHILDBIRTH they were
they would not use their Fathers
Name in vain; they would not speak
1t in anger and contempt
Respect the Holy Name, love and
honor 1t, and lead others to do the
same.
