TURN HAIR DARK

Naturally Nobody Can Tell

The old-time mixture of Sage Tea
and Sulphur for darkening gray
streaked and faded hair is grand
mothers recipe, and folks are again
using it to keep their hair a good
even color, which is quite sensible. as
we are living in an age when a
youthful appearance is of the great
est advantage:
Nowadays, though, we don't have
the troublesome task of gathering
the sage and the mussy mixing at
home. All drug stores sell the ready
to-use product, improved by the ad-
dition Of other ingredients, called
"Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Com
pound" 1t is very popular because
nobody can discover it has been an
piled. Simply moisten your comb or
a 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 few applications. it. also pro-
duces that soft lustre and appear
ance of abundance which is so at
tractive.-Adv.

Tho Federation and the Soviet.

Tho Federation ana the Soviet'
Wishing to be kind, we don't mind
saying that the American Federation
Of Labor convention did a creditable
thing in voting down a resolution
calling for recognition by the United
States of the soviet government of
Russia
Looking at things another way, the
very presentation of such a resolution
was an insult to decent people and
their organized government. To be
sure, greater men than the Seattle
labor council man who introduced
the resolution have attempted to
bring the bolsheviki in all their helm
BUSINESS into the civilized society Of
nations. 1t is and always has been
preposterous to think Of recognizing
and consenting to any attempt to
build a government and rule great
people on such principles and prac-
tees as have characterized the boil
sheviki from the beginning of their
career.
The resolutions committee in their
report declared that the federation
would not be justified in taking any
action that might be construed as an
alliance with or an approval Of the
soviet government, so long as it is
based upon authority which is not
vested in it by a popular national
representative assembly of the Rus
sian people or SO long as it en-
deavors to create revolutions in well
established civilized nations of the
world, or so long as it advocates and
applies naturalization to labor and
prevents the organizing and function
ing Of trades unions and the MAIN
tenance of free speech. free press and
free public assemblies.
This stand is sound and justifiable.
Well and good. But there are a good
many sensible people in the United
States who think government owner
ship, Plumb plans for the nationaliza-
ton of industries and extreme de-
mands for higher pay are not calcu-
lated to increase the welfare, peace
! and prosperity of the nation. Glass
action may be attempted on a some
what higher plane and in a more dig
nifled manner in the United States
than in Russia, but it is equally un-
sound and subversive of liberty here
as there.

A Spontaneous Selection

springfield. Union, Republican,
The nomination of Governor Cool
idge for Vice President may be truly
most united and spontaneous move
ment in the proceedings of conven-
that had an unusual array of differ
ences to overcome. 1t came not as
the result of any compromises or
side-arrangements between delega-
lions or leaders. On the other hand,
it was an open field in which for the
first time the delegates could express
themselves without being under in
stEuctions or pledges, or subject to
any of the conditions that divided
the forces in relation to either the
platform or the nomination of the
head of the ticket
Nor did the Coolidge nomination
come from any thought of expedi-
ency in geographical arrangement.
1t did not follow that because Ohio
had been honored with the first place
that the second should go to Massa-
chusetts. Nor was there a thought
apparently or more definitely recog-
nizing elements in the convention
contending for strength or control.
Nor did the final impetus for the
choice of the Massachusetts governor
come from the faithful band Of
Massachusetts, delegates that stood
by him while the leaders for the
presidential nomination were being
disposed of.
The truth is that the Coolidge
nomination came as a general, spon-
taneous and prompt expression of
the temper of the whole convention
of delegates East and West. The far
West Joined with the East in the
opinion that Calvin Coolidge had be-
come a strong man in the party and
with the people by the simple artless
process of meeting squarely and fair
ly the problems of his own Job. with
out a thought either Of promoting
his own political strength or of gain
ing the support of any particular
class of the party or of the people.
The convention was looking for :,
strong man to put on the ticket with
senator Harding and by general con-
sent Coolidge was the man.
