Anthony equal suffrage r imendmeni. The resolution now goes 0 ;o the senate oi- consideration. 0 | The resolution caused something of v i parliamentary jam early in the de- j, jate, effort being made to refer the'], esolution to a committee that a joint jj resolution of the same import might ^ )e brought out. This agitation grew ! )ut of the different views held by! jarliamentarians in the house. One j( ?roup contends that a concurrent ra- j solution has no force at law, and that j i joint resolution which requires'j ;he .signature of the governor, wher.jq ipproved by both houses, would. * This difference of opinion has j aised the question as 10 whether oi'lj lot the suffrage amendment will j j :ome up again this session. It is con- p ended by those arguing for a joint; s esolution that yesterdays' action canjj )e interpreted only as an expression, f SAGE TEA TURNS : GRAY HAIR DARK. . 1 It's Grandmother's Recipe to s Bring Back Color and g Lustre to Hair. . 1 ? * a'A.I ??? ?

When it r fades, turns gray or streaked, just an j application or two of Sage and Sul- J phur enhances its appearance a hun- ] dredfold. Don't bother to prepare the mix- ? ture; you can get this famous old recipe improved by the addition of other ingredients at a small cost, all I ready for use. It is called Wyeth'a < Sage and Sulphur Compound. This can always be depended upon. to bring j back the natural color and lustre of your hair. x Everybody uses "Wyeth's" Sage and t Sulphur Compound, now because it darkens so naturally and evenly that T nobody can tell it has been" applied, y You simply dampen a sponge or soft brush with it and draw this through , 1 the hair, taking one small strand at a time; by morning the gray hair has disappeared, and after another application it becomes beautifully dark and . appears glossy and lustrous. This, ^?ady-to-use preparation is a delight- ] Jul toilet requisite for those who delire dark hair and a youthful appear- < a.nce. It is not intended for the cure, / m't!t'atidri- or nrevention of disease. catrr/...1 rj gMS?SISMSMSM3?SISI5MSEMSMSJSiSISJSJi a i B | We are making th< 0 D 1 year we have ever pre | I charged with fish, anc 0 i fish this year than eve ZJ why it is the best.

The whites were able i , ejto' get the negro vote with a little x ^ s tobacco and liquor. States rights were : J lost at Appomattax and the position e being taken by the South Carolina e; legislature was only a slap at the ; national congress. Representative Meares of Fair !field, led the fight to get the bill re inferred tc the committee on the judiijciary of the house. i, | Mr. Hamilton of Chester contended that the house was going out of the' / jj ' way to express its sentiment on wo- % [ man suffrage. The amendment was *> not before the house and the mem- . ' bers ought to take a direct vote on a V question which is one of the most * '- important of the dav. i,i ...... . - - i wanted Jbttective Action. r j Mr. Hanahan, of Fairfield, was , | bitterly opposed to suffrage but * I _ -wanted the resolution referred to a?? . ^committee which could substitute'a ,_j joint resolution instead. "Let us have |a joint resolution which will kill the 1 ; infernal thing now and forever," he I said. i. Mr. Belser, of Sumter argued for ;-|"a dccent hearing" on the amends/j merit. The subject of the amendr, jment and its passage ^by both houses .of the national congress deserved more consideration from the legisla'L r_ tors. d, Mr. Gray, of Spartanburg, did not a, | live through the reconstruction per1-: iod, but at his father's knee he had > ? ibeen told of the horrors of those , i,; years and he did not wish for him>f self or posterity such another calami- ' 10 ty. He had told some of the women iel lobbyists for the amendment that is "more hell and the. devil would be it raised over this thirtg than anything it else." 3" Mr. Dreher, of Lexington, knew that states' rights were defeated at 'Appomattox, but the principles of democracy were still living and that 10 was what he was fighting for in op>r posing the national amendment. j>. !
