Common garden sage brewed into

troublesome. An easier way is to get
the ready-to-us preparation improved
by the addition of other ingredients
a large bottle, at little cost, at drug
stores, known as "Wyeth's Sage and
Sulphur Compound" thus avoiding a
lot Of muss.
While gray. faded hair is not sinful.
we all desire to retain our youthful
appearance and attractiveness. By
darkening your hair with Wyeth's
Sage and Sulphur Compound, no one
can tell, because it does it so natural
ly, so evenly. You just dampen a
sponge or soft brush with it and draw
this through your hair, taking one
small strand at a time; by morning
all gray hairs have disappeared. After
another application or two your hair
becomes beautifully dark, glossy, soft
and luxuriant and you appear years
younger. Wyeth's Sags and Sulphur
Compound is delightful toilet requi-
site. 1t is not intended for the cure,
mitigation or prevention of disease.

President Wilson did not get much
consideration from congress on his
veto of the bill for enforcing prohibi-
ton. The house passed the bill over
his veto three hours after he had sign
ed his veto message and the senate
passed it at the first session thereaft-
err by a vote of IS to 20. Dispatches
today say that the president is figur-
ing on lifting the ban on beer and
wine SO that those who want to deal in
these wet refreshments can do so until
January LIST, when the country goes
absolutely dry by constitutional
amendment. It seems to us that the
president is on the unpopular side of
this liquor question. The country, by
a vote of all the states, has by an
overwhelming majority, declared it.
self in favor of constitutional prohibit
ton, yet in the fact of all this, in the
face of the fact that congress over
whelmingly has also declared itself in
favor of prohibition, many democratic
senators voting to. pass it over the
veto, it would seem that the president
has used poor judgment. The coun-
try is going dry anyway the first of
the year and it would seem to us that
if the president did not want to ap-
prove the bill he would let it become
a law without his signature. 1t shows
his bulldog character, just the same.

WRITE IT'S OWN REWARD

Mr.. p. e. Halldorson, who made the
report which brought about the clos
ing of the Scandinavian-American
! bank, has been discharged by 0. f.
Lofthus, the state bank examiner.
Mr.. Halldorson, Of course, knew
when he made his report that it meant
the loss of his situation. When ne
wrote that report he must have known
that there was not one chance in a
hundred that he would be able to re-
tain his position after it became pub
lie, but he wrote it anyway.
He placed his conscience and his
self l.2pect above his job.
He refused to retain his position at
the cost of his honor.
The people of North Dakota owe
Mr.. Halldorson debt that they prob
ably cannot repay-at least until there
is a change of administration. Public
officials of his type are all too rare
these days. Too many public officials
would have passed the buck" if they
had been in Mr.. Halldorson's position.
He stood right up to the blaze and
took what was coming to him, rather
than back down one inch from what he
thought was right.
The Forum doesn't know Mr.. Hail.
dorson's feelings in the matter, but
we can't believe that man who would
show the moral courage he did would
regret the step now, nor can we be-
lieve that a man who has so proven his
honesty can be long out of a position,
just as good or better, than the state
job he held.
But we would rather break stone on
the roads for living and have Mr..
Halldorson's record than be in the
shoes of Mr.. "Shoot-it-to-the- other-
banks" Waters, with his $4,000 salary,
his sisal trust pickings, and the
knowledge that he connived with
bankers to permit violation of the
banking laws he was sworn to enforce.
