MISS LAURA CLAY Leaves
THE SUFFRAGE FORCES
Pioneer Kentucky Sufiragist Says
Amendment interiors With
States Rights.

Declaring that the Susan B. Anthony
suffrage amendment passed by the
United States Senate Wednesday vio-
lates the principle of state rights by
its enforcing clause, similar to that of
the fifteenth amendment, and that sim
liar historical results may be expect
ed, Miss Laura Clay, pioneer woman
suffragist in the South and former
president of the Kentucky Equal
Rights Association, withdrew from
that organization Thursday morning.
The fact that the executive boards of
both the state and national associa-
tons have agreed to give all their en-
ergies to obtaining the ratification of
the national amendment and that the
Kentucky board has declined to ask
the Legislature for state amendment
led her to withdraw, as she felt her
continued membership would be in
COlSlStCut do ohS huu pSSh u
strong advocate of states rights, Miss
Clay said Thursday.
In an address to the Lexington W. c.
T. U. Thursday afternoon, Miss Clay
explained her belief that the amend
ment violates the right of states to
control elections and reviewed the
trouble caused by the fifteenth amend
ment with its enforcing clause, which
caused the control of state elections
to pass to the dominating party in Con-
gress. She also pointed out the danger
of japanese propaganda and diplomacy
for racial equality, which she said
might form an inducement for the vio-
lation of states rights to control cleo
lions and lead to federal control.

PICTURE OF LOCAL PASTORS
WIFE UNVEILED AT STANFORD

The Stanford Interior Journal this
week carries quite an extensive story
on an unwilling service held on last
Sunday evening at the Stanford Meth
odist church when portrait Of Mrs.
J. J. Dickey, late wife of DR.. J. ].
Dickey, of this city, was unveiled. Mrs.
Dickey founded the Woman's Club in
Stanford and was a leader in all civic
movements. All of the churches of
Stanford adjourned to attend this
great mass meeting. The portrait was
presented to the Stanford Women's
Club by DR.. J. J. Dickey and will be
hung on the walls of their room in the
Court House.

The luncheon at the close of the day
was very interesting affair in many
respects. The reports were very en-
couraging and the talks by the var
ous members were quite enthusiastic.
Many ways in which the Chamber of
Commerce could be of more service to
the farmers Of the county were sug-
gested. The chief manner of service
seemed to be the furnishing of daily
Geographic reports on the stock mar
kets to be received each day and post
ed on bulletin board at the Chamber
of Commerce building and the stock
quotations on any kind of stock could
be furnished to any farmers or dealer
who would telephone the office for the
information. This suggestion met with
the approval of most every one present
and 1t is more than likely that the sug-
gested plan will be adopted in the near
future.
Interesting and enthusiastic ad-
dresses were made by Mayor Thomas
NJ, Russell and County and City
Health Officer Rice. The former not
only praised Maysvlle as a city mans
town but also as the town which be-
longed to the farmers and traders of
Maysville and Mason county. One
happy suggestion of the Mayor was
the erection of Chamber of Com
merce community building on the
corner of Second and Market streets
at some future date for the use of the
people of Maysville and Mason county
in various ways.
DR.. Rice spoke very encouragingly
of the health conditions in Mason
county having just returned from a
trip overland to Augusta and return
where he investigated the smallpox
situation.
Taken in all the meeting was quite
success in every respect and the day
was signal success for the Chamber
of Commerce.

AN OLD RECIPE
TO DARKEN HAIR
Sage Tea and Sulphur Turns
Gray, Faded Hair Dark
and Glossy.

Almost everyone knows that Sage
Tea and Sulphur, properly COM
pounded, brings back the natural
color and 1ustre to the hair when
faded, streaked or gray. Years ago
the only way to get this mixture
was to make it at home, which is
mussy and troublesome.
Nowadays we simply ask at any
drug store for "Wyeth's Sage and
Sulphur Compound" You will get
large bottle of this old-tin1e recipe
improved by the addition of other
ingredients, at very little cost.
Everybody uses this preparation
now, because no one can possibly
tell that you darkened your hair,
as it does it so naturally and evenly.
You dampen a sponge or soft brush
with it and drawn this through your
hair, taking one small strand at
time; by morning the gray hair
disappears, and after another APP
plication or two, your hair becomes
beautifully dark, thick and glossy
and you look years younger. -
