Mulcahy, Sec’y Have You A Victor MILITANTS SCORED OVER GRLS DEATH Suffragettes Blamed for Downfall of Girl Who Killed Herself. London, July 3.—Public opinion in London is still at white heat over the suicide of “Laura Grey” (J. Lowender Guthrie), the young suffragette, who ‘wag, led into bad habits and a life of shame. There is great indigna- tion against the militant suffragettes, of shame and decency because found among them photographs of a very undesirable character on the mantelpiece of her bedroom. There can be no doubt that her degradation ‘was complete.” Amid the veronal bottles from which Miss Grey drank the releasing poison was found a remarkable let- ter, a sad farewell message from an erring daughter to her pure, simple minded mother. The letter said: Admits She Lied. “Please do not imagine for a mo- | ment that what I have done was sug- gested by our last conversation. 1 have been taking veronal for the last six months, practically every night. I only lied to you about it because 1 knew you would worry if I told you the truth. Of course the kindly coroner will call it ‘temporary in- sanity,’ but as a matter of fact I think this is about the sanest thing I have yet done. “I am simply very, very tired of they | ete.

Sage Tea Darkens Hair to Any Shade. bon't stay Gray! Here’'s an Old- Time Recipe That Anybody can Apply. The use of Sage and Sulphur for ostoring faded, gray hair to its nat- 7al color dates back to grandmother’s ime. She used it to keep her hair cautifully dark, glossy and abun-, iant. Whenever her hair fell out or ook on that dull, faded or streaked pbearance, this simple mixture was pplied with wonderful effect. But brewing at home is mussy and but-of-date. Nowadays, by askingat | ny drug store for a 50 cent bottle of | “Wyeth's Sage - and Sulphur Hair | IRemedy,” you will get this famous| old recipe which can be depended upon to restore natural color and ‘beauty to the hair and is splendid for dandruff, dry, feverish, itchy scalp mnd falling hair, A well-known downtown druggist says it darkens the hair so naturally and evenly that nobody can tell it has been applied. You simply damp- en a sponge or soft brush with it and draw this through your hair, taking one strand at a time. By morning the gray hair disappears, and after an- pther application or two, it becomes beautifully dark, glossy, soft and abundant. wished to earn her own living. first she was not militant, finally drawn into that class and be- tween 1910 and 1912 was nrrested} Once her mother paid | { her fine and once she went to jail, where she went on a hunger strike and was released. After her release she went on the stage as a pantomime girl and -then drifted quickly to the depths of degradation. She lost all affection for home life and her mother was unable to keep in communica- tion with her. When the coroner asked the mother if she knew her daughter had taken to drink she re- plied innocently: “I had heard of absinthe; I do not know if that is drink.” Coroner Denounces Militants, The coroner denounced the mili- tants in no uncertain terms, holding the Woman's Social and Political Union responsible for leading the girl away from her home to a. life. of shame. = After reading a letter of praise from the mi!i(an& organization commending ‘the girl for her®‘“brav- ery” in her window-smashing and en- closing a medal ‘““for valor” because of her hunger striking, the coroner said: “Can anything be more ecalculated to upset the mind of a young girl such as receiving this document and this travesty of a medal? At any rate, the letter had that effect upon her. Till that moment she had been, it is true, a militant suffragette, but she was living at home and was ap- parently a decent member of society with the exception that she broke the law in accordance with the tenets of the militant suffragettes. The effect on this young girl is quite clear. Af- ter that she began to exaggerate her importance. She leaves home, her sister and her mother for a garret in | order to earn her own probably devote herself to this ‘cause.’ “Life of Open Vice.” “When a young girl, brought up as she was, starts to live the and independent existence we hear so much about in England, men of the world know the danger she runs; a danger from which unfortunately this girl did not escape. Next we find her in the company of men, fre- quenting night clubs and taking money from them. The girl seems to have been absolutely degraded ana from this point on her whole history is one of drink, drugs, immorality and death from her own hand. In eigh- teen months she appears to have led a life of open vice.
