= h2! FRIDAY, MAY 31, 1912, SAGE TEA WLLL DARKEN THE HAIR Restore Faded and Gray Hair to Na- tural Color— Dandruff Quickly Removed. There is nothing new about the idea of using Sage for restoring the color of the hair. Our grandmothers kept their hair dark,glossy and abun- dant by the use of a simple “Sage Tea.” Whenever their hair fell out or took on a dull, faded or streaked appearance, they made a brewof Sage leaves, and applied it to their hair with wonderfully beneficial effect. Nowadays we don’t have to resort to the old-time tiresome method of gathering the herbs and making the tea. This is done by skillful chemists better than we could do it ourselves; and all we have to do is to call for the ready made product. Wyeth’s Sage and Suiphur Hair Remedy, con- taining Sage in the proper strength, with the addition of Sulphur, another old-time scalp remedy. Tihs preparation gives youthful color and beauty to the hair, and is one of the best remedies you can use for dandruff, dry, feverish, itching scalp, and falling hair. Get a fifty cent bottle from your druggist today, and you will be surprised at the quick results. All druggists sell it, under guarantee that the money will be refunded if the remedy is not ex- actly as represented. NEVER SIGK A DAY Bemarkable Record of General Duncan, Just Dead. IN ARMY ALL ADULT LIFE Fought in All Climates But Was Un touched by lllness—United States Consents to Guard Polling Places in Panama. By GEORGE CLINTON. Washington.—Gen. Joseph W. Dune can, commander of the department of Texas, United States army, who died at Fort Sam Houston a few days ago, was born in the state in which he died. The death of General Duncan leaves three vacant brigadier generale ships in the United States army, and there are as many applicants for the places as there are colonels in the army. It is supposed that President Taft will apppoint colonels to the va- cancies, for there does not seem to be & disposition today, as there was some time ago, to promote junior officers over the heads of their seniors to make brigadiers of them. General Duncan was fifty-eight years of age and he had been in the army &ll his adult life. His father and his grandfather were army officers. From the time that he entered the service when he was twenty years of age General Duncan never was on the sick report for one hour. Personally he had no need for the services of a sur- geon, and this is considered one of the most remarkable records known to army annals. General Rucker, who died two or three years ago at the age of ninety- four, entered the army in 1837 and left the active list about ' 40 years thereafter. General Rucker was never on sick report, and his case and Gen- eral Duncan’s are record breakers. Withstood All Kinds of Climate, It is the more remarkable that Dun- oan never was ill for a day when con- sideration is given to the nature of his service. He fought Indians in the southwest, the middle west and the P?’QQ‘Z"‘?Eg In all kinds of climates and fn all kinds of weather conditlons. - He Wwas in Cuba for months when the men were falling from {llness on his right hand and on his left, and yet he stood untouched. He fought in the Philip- Pine jungles and came through ag healthy as the day he landed in the islands. His death came suddenly Wwithout any warning. An hour before me died he did not know that he was . T . i . Qeneral Duncan was born in an army tent on the plains of Texas in 1853. He lived the army life as a boy g#nd as a man. He has a son in the pervice, thus making a series of four generations «of army officers in the Duncan family. General Duncan led the assault upon a supposedly impreg- pable stronghold of the Moros on thg Island of Jolo. This was 0Le 5f the most decisive batf";g 1 the islands And th‘i 1oes of ike troops was heavy, ‘oot T the midst of the fight General Duncan, who then was & colonel, moved unscratched. Panama Fears Election Rlots. They are soon to hold an election for president and vice president of the republic of Panama, the Central Amer- lcan state from which the United Btates secured the territory known as the Panama Canal Zone. It is sald that the Panama people want to have their republic continue under peaceful conditions, and that they are afrald there will be such trouble at the pres- ‘ldential election as to jeopardize the future of the country, and so they bave asked the authorities at Wash- fngton to delegate United States of- fcials to supervise the election and see that it passes off peacefully. 'he United States has consented. It 18 a long while since there were troops at the polls in the United Btates. It is possible, of cqurse, the = ree troops may not bé sent to the voting places in Panama, but that civilian of- ficials may be asked to perform the duty, this government taking it for granted that their presence will have the necessary moral eftect. - The chances are, however, that the Tenth Infantry, which is now stationed on the isthmus, will be sent into Pana- ma on registration day and again on election day to keep the rival .fac- tions in order and to see that there I8 fair play all around. Cuba’s New Navy, Cuba at last has a navy and the United States, which stands in the position of a sort of a father to the Cuban republic, has seen two ships sail away from a home port to take orders under the president of the Isl- and republic. Cuba now has a cruiser which happily enough has been named the Cuba. It also has a training ship for seamen, called the Patria. Cuba and the Patria were built on the The | Delaware river, and when théy were completed and set sail they both fired volleys in honor of their own flag and then in honor of that of the United States. Washington is one of the cities in the Union where a “sane Fourth” is Insisted upon. Last year there was not a fire cracker nor a torpedo ex- ploded in the Digtrict of Columbia on Independence day. This year prepara- tions are being made for another sane Fourth, The people, however, are ‘to be given an entertainment at night ir, the form of fireworks and a day enter tainment in the form of aeroplane flights. Some one has said that flying machine exhibitions are about as dan. gerous as cannon fire crackers have proved, but the fliers will be officers of the United States army whoge duty it is to take risks Uncle Pennywise Says: THE BEMIDJI DAILY PIONEER Poverty may not be a crime, but it | earries the penalty of hard labor. | 2 HEADED OFF BY DIPLOMACY Kitchener's Smooth Way of Keeping Egyptians From Mixing In Turco- Itallan War. Egypt is actually a Turkish province, although the British control is so complete and tenacious that the sov- ereignty of Turkey is of the most shadowy kind. None the less Turkey has the nominal right to order the Egyptian army to cross the ‘frontier into Tripoli and to help in the discom- fiture of the Italian invaders, But al- though Turkey has wisely refraiped from issuing orders that would not be obeyed there has been a desire on the part of many Egyptian officers to volunteer in her cause, and these of- ficers have afked Lord Kitchener's per- mission to absent themselves from their posts for that purpose. Lord Kitchener’s reply, guoted in the Fort- nightly Review, shows & Certaln ®ar- donic humor that must be classified among the finer weapons of diplomacy. He says he would gladly give the de- sired permiasion, but he fears that the upward pressure in the junior ranks of the Egyptian army would compel him to place the absenteas on the retired list, which would be a grievous . return for patriotic valor. So he advises them to curb their heroic ambitions, so natural to Egyptians, and stay at home. To a number of nomad Bedou- Ins, who made similar applications Lord Kitchener expressed his surprise that they should wish to fight at all. Not having regarded them in the light of warriors, he had never included them insthe Egyptian conscription, an error that should be henceforth cor- rected in view of their martial in- clinations. Thereupon the Bedoulns decided that there was no place like home, William C. Klein INSURANCE Rentals, Bonds, Real Estato First Mortgage Loans on’} City and Farm Property 5 and 6, O’Leary-Bowser Bidg.
