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

Almost everyone knows that Sag
Tea and Sulphur, properly compound
ed, brings back the natural color ano
lustre to the hair when faded, streake(
or gray. Years ago the only way to &c
this mixture was to make 1t at home
which Is mussy and troublesome.
Nowadays we simply ask at an,
drug store for "Wyeth's Sage and Sui
phur Compound" You will get largt
bottle Of this old-time recipe improved
by the addition of other ingredients
at very little cost. Everybody uses
this preparation nov. because no one
can possibly tell that You darkenec
your hair, as 1t does it so natural!
and evenly. You dampen sponge o.
soft ~brush with 1t and draw this
through your hair, taking one small
strand at time; by morning the gray
hair disappears, and after another ap-
plication or two, your hair becomes
beautifully dark. thick and glossy and
you look years younger. Wyeths Sage
and Sulphur Compound is a delightful
toilet requisite. 1t is not intended for
the cure, mitigation or prevention of
disease.

TRAFFIC INCREASE
TREBLED SINCE 1888
Greater Efficiency Enabled Rail-
roads to Meet Country's
Growing Demands.

The American railroads are more
than one-third of the railways Of the
world. The traffic hauled on the rail-
ways Of the United States is now three
times as great as it was twenty years
ago. In four months now the railroads
carry as much freight ana as many
passengers as they did then in year.
IL the three months alone of the har-
vest movement in 1919 the traffic equal
ed that Of the whole year of 1898.
In 1893 freight ton miles carried by
the railroads of the country were more
than 1O0,OO0000,00O a year. In 1910
they were more than 250,000,0 00,0 900,
in 1918 more than OO,0O0,O00,000 and
in 1918 more than 4O0,0o0000,O00. AL
though the railway mileage increased
only about IS per cent since $780, i'm
provements in tracks, terminals, equip
ment, etc, have been so marked that
the volume of goods carried (measured
in the number of freight tons carried
one mile) increased more than five
times from 1890 to 1917.
Increased Efficiency.
Taking account Of both freight and
passenger service, the railroads In 1900
hauled 10000 traffic units freight
tons carried one mile, plus passengers
carried one mile) for each railway en-
ployee. BY 1917, the last year of pri-
vate operation of the railroads prior to
the entry of the United States into the
war. that 10000 had been increased
to 100000.
The following table shows the In
crease in efficiency of American rail-
roads since 1900, which enabled the
railroads to keep pace with the growth
of the country:
Ton miles increased. ....... 1907
Passenger miles increased. 1909
Trackage increased ...... $3.50
Cars and engine increased. 1919
Workers increased ........ $3.50
Output per worker increased Coo
Average train load increased 1900
These figures show that the traffic
hauled by the railroads of the country
has increased more than three times
as fast as the trackage, more than
twice as fast as the equipment and
more than twice as fast as the number
of workers. This has been made pos
sible by far-sighted investment Of new
capital to increase the efficiency of the
transportation facilities and thereby
enable the railroads to increase the
amount of traffic handled and reduce
the amount of labor required to handle

queries of correspondents. And his
cabinet officers found the same
thing true. They didn't dare to cross
him. He didn't like it. Secretary
Garrison tried to do it and soon
found himself out of the cabinet.
No, Mr.. Wilson's idea Of govern
ment by cabinet is that a cabinet
officer is merely general counsel
or adviser subject to the authority
and instruction Of the president and
as such necessarily subservient to
the presidential command.
His Idea of Cabinet.
When Mr.. Bryan resigned, the
president who had been writing
notes to Germany and handling for
eign affairs made no secret of the
fact that he wanted a counsellor and
not a secretary of state, and Mr..
Lansing had no doubts about the
position in which he would be
placed by taking the office. The
president has from time to time
shown disposition to regard cab
met meetings as superhuous. Time
and again, however, when newspa-
pers would print stories saying he
didn't hink cabinet meetings were
necessary, he would issue vehement
denials through administration Of
ficials, but there is no question in my
mind that Mf. Wilson's conception
of cabinet government is decidedly
different from that held by some of
his predecessors. He feels that cab
met officers are advisers and sub
ordinates who are to give advice
when asked for it and to take orders
and carry them out according to the
wishes of their chief.
The war has unquestionably had

ural laws can operate to restore
normal conditions"
The appeal of President Wilson
in October, 1918, for the election OF
a democratic committee, he de-
clared, was mot merely an injustice
to the republican senator's and rep
resentanves who with splendid
loyalty had supported every for
ward step of the administration"
but ''it was a demand for the con-
tinuance of supreme power by the
election of a congress which would
submit itself to the orders of an
executive acting at once as party
leader in politics and a dictator
in government. II was an instance
of American democracy that re-
PEELED the demand.
Treaty Fatally Defective.
"The presidents defiance of the
authority of the senate to advise
upon covenant of the league Of
nations and to give or withhold
its consent TO the ratification of
the treaty containing it" he contin-
'ued, was a challenge to the right
of any officer of the United States
government to exercise his powers
in any way which had not the ap-
proval of the chief executive"
The treaty, Mr.. Root declared,
"was fatally defective in several
respects, not only from the stand
point of the vital interests of the
United States, but considered as an
instrument designed to secure the
future peace of the world"
"The reservations adopted by the
senate" he insisted, remedy, so far
as the United States is Concerned,
the chief objections to the treaty.
They prevent our entrance into the
league of nations from being all
abandonment OF the Monroe doc
trine, with irreparable injury to
the United States and no benefit to
the rest of the world" ..
Mistake of Article 10.
Especially important, asserted Mr.
Root. is that they prevent the in
credible mistake" of article 10. The
the agreement IN that articles Ito
preserve as against external 'ag-
gressi6n the territorial integrity and
existing political independence of
all members of the league he
argued, binds the United States,
when occasion arises, to defend
every member of the league by
armed force against external ag-
gression "no matter what our peo-
pie at the time think about the
right and wrong of the controversy,
or about the wisdom or folly of
entering upon it.
1T seems clear to me that in the
Of the worlds peace, which
all America desires to promote. this
treaty ought to be ratified with the
reservations of the senate and that
without those reservations in their
fair and honest substance, it ought
not to be ratified. l hope the treaty
Omaha daily bee., 1920-02-20

will be ratified with the reservations
long before the presidential election.
That will be done if the president
permits il. If that is not done then
that is what | think the republican
pafty ought to stand for.
Wants League Reformed.
Immediately after the 4th of
March, 1921, 4 republican president
would urge upon the Society of Ma
tions the reform of the league cove
nart. so as to make it establish the
rule Of public right rather than the
rule OF mere expediency. so as to
make the peace of the world rest
primarily upon law and upon the ef-
fectiveness and enforcement of law.
A congress of all nations should be
called to consider and declare what
of international law still remains of
binding force, and to provide for
the further development and extern
SIGN of that law, and for the appli-
cation of the law to all justiciable
cases of controversy between ma
tions by impartial judicial tribunals,
and TO make the decisions of such
tribunals upon questions of fact and
upon questions OF law binding and
effective. That is the old American
doctrine, and that is the necessary
method of democracies for democ-
racies can live only under govern
meuts of laws and not Of men.
THE extreme effects of the pos
session of arbitrary power are seen
in the extraordinary letters of the
president to Secretary Lansing pub
lislled on the 14th of February, 1920.
by which it appears that honest and
Independent. advice from officers OF
the presidents own selection is an
offense, and that the exercise of the
most ordinary powers of the heads
of departments without consulting
the president, when his illness pre-
vented consultation, is cause for re-
sentiment"
Wants Military Training.
ut is interesting to observe that
many citizens-official and unoffi-
cial-who are willing that the coun-
try should assume the startling OBJ
legations of article 10 are opposing
the system of universal military
training, without which our obliga-
ton would be worthless and which,
intensively applied, enabled the
United States to turn the scale of
war against Germany. They say
we have millions of young men al
ready trained, but bow long is the
service which these splendid and
patriotic youths have already rem
dered to their country to be made
the ground for imposing upon them
exclusively the burden of further
service, and leaving the millions Of
young men who come to military
age year after year unframed and
untitled to do their part for the de-
Tense of our country" 4
Principles of our government, Mr..
Root urged, should be applied to
the. relations between organized Ia
Dor and the public. First, to as
sert the control of the whole people |
of the United States within its
field, and the whole people of each
state within its field, over matters
essential to the life of the commu-
nifty, to the exclusion of any class
control in such matters, and, sec
ond, to exercise that popular con-
troll by making and applying such
laws and establishing such institu-
tons OF government as to secure
