NO MORE GRAY HAIR
It Is easier to preserve the color of the
lair than to restore It although It is
possible to do both Our grandmothers
understood the secret They made and
used a sage tea and their dark glossy
hair lone after middle life was duo to this
fact Our mothers lave gray hairs be
fore they are tiff but they ore begin
ning to Appreciate the wisdom of our
frrandmothers Jn using sago tea for
their hair and are fast following suit
The present generation has the advan
tale of the past In that It can get a
ready to use preparation called Wyeths
Rage and Sulphur As a scalp tonic and
color restorer this preparation Is vastly
superior to tho ordinary sage tea made
by our grandmothers and It < can be

FORTIFYING PANAMA CANAL PROBLEM

Washington Sept 21 United
Press Association Now that tho
United States is about to complete I
the Panama canal many nations are
interesting themselves In the ques
tion of Its fortification and have suc
ceeded In raising discussion of sucII
proposition The United States how
ever is going ahead calmly with
plans for defending the canal which
are before President Taft and the
question If any serious opposition
develops must be settled In congress
this winter
The eyes of the powers are turned
toward the little strip of land ten
miles wide and forty miles long
through which the United States to
the creaking of the steam hovels
and the boom of the exploding dyna
mite is rapidly opening tho big
ditch which Is fo unlto the Atlantic
and Pacific oceans
The Panama canal is no longer a
project It is now a reality Al
though the date set for the opening
Is 19 15 the engineers are confident
that ships will be taking this short
slat between oceans a year sooner
or 1914
1914Two
Two years or even a year ago for
eigners were content to admire the
energy and skill which was sweep
ing away giant obstacles Today
they arc wondering what its effect
Is to bo on world politics and what i
advantages are to accrue to the
United States through control of
this strategic waterway
For this reason more than any
other foreigners are debating the
question of the fortification of the
canal At the present moment also
this consideration Is of paramount
Interest to the United States because
the defense must be In place by the

time the canal is open for traffic
The two problems therefore
which are agitating the officials of
tho United States and of other court
tries aro whether wo have the right
to fortify tho canal and whether wo
can do it successfully if we havo tho
right
No less an authority than Rear
Admiral Bob Evans has said that
it cannot be done The board of
army exports says that It can The
task offers difficulties but they are
not insurmountable Tho essential
feature of the defense plans Is that
the big guns of the shore batteries
must be so placed that no fleet In
time of war can draw near enough
to the entrance of tho canal on
either side to bottle it up against
another fleet
If the canal is to be strictly neu
tral It must be kept open to ships
of any belligerent nation This can
not be done if n fleet of one of tho
combatants can stand oft the en
trance at sufficient distance to be
beyond tho range ot the guns of tho
shore batteries and pick off a hostile
fleet coming through ship by ship
before it could deploy In battle for
mation If this were the case the
canal would be as effectively bottled
as though tho Lusltnnla were sunk
in its channel for no fleet of battle
ships would run the risk of a fight
under such adverse circumstances
For this reason the fortifications
must bo so placed that tho coast
guns can stand oft a fleet at suffi
dent distance to allow another fleet
to pass through and form In battle
lino for its own defense before com
ing in range As the range of tho
coast gun and the modern big gun
of battleships are approximately the
same it will be necessary to mount
batteries in fortifications on Islands
commanding tho entrance of tho
canal
Islnmi4 Available
Fortunately no artificial Islands
need be built to obtain this end
On tho Panama side there are sev
eral admirably situated On tho
Colon side there is one which will
1 servo tho purpose From theso posi
tions the batteries or mortars and
big guns will command a stretch of
water enough for the fleet to ma
neuver in
Tho guarding of tho canal at in
terior points is not so difficult a
problem A garrison will bo main
tanned within the zone which can
patrol tho route Tho vulnerable
points will be tho locks which could
easily be disabled by tho explosion
of a stick of dynamite and serious
damage might bo done In tho same
way at one of the dams
Precautions will also bo taken In
time of war between any nations to
prevent the sinking of a ship In tho
I channel to obstruct the passage of BI I
fleet I
fleetThere Is little doubt of the ability
of the United States to fortify tho
canal effectively Whether or not It
has tho right to do so according to
tho agreement with Great Britain Is
a more involved question
Apart from treaty considerations I
tho right of the United Slates can I
not bo questioned The United States
controls tho tcnmllo strip through
which the cnnnl runs as much as It
controls the Philippine Islands This
country spent hundreds of millions
of dollars to dig the waterway The
right of the United States to erect
what fortifications it pleases within
Its own territory and to defend its
own possession cannot bo ques
tioned
Those who object to the fortifica
tion are either the militant advo
cates of universal pence notably
Gen J Warren Keller of Ohio
whose reasons were based on anti
war sentiment or persons who hold
that It Is contrary to tho spirit of
the HayPauncefote treaty with
Qrcat Britain
Against the peace advocates there
is only one argument whether It
lis wise or foolish to promoto the
cause of universal peace by expos
ing to the attacks of a belligerent
country or tho machinations of an
Individual with a stick of dynamite
tho waterway which has cost hun
dreds of millions and which win bo

As to tho treaty Itself there Is
no clause which stands In the way
of the fortification ot tho canal The
treaty embodies sonic of the Inter
national treaties regarding the Suez
canal but not all of them and as
tbo circumstances under which It
will havo been built and adminis
lured Bro quite different from those
affecting the Suez route it Is not
contended that all tho regulations
adopted In tho ease of tho latter
canal apply to the Panama canal
Tho treaty itself therefore does
not specify whether or not the canal
shall bo fortified It docs however
stipulate that it shall bo neutral
This was the purposo at tho framing
of the treaty The object of Great
Britain was to obtain from the
United State assurance that the
control of tho canal would not bo
exercised by the United State for
tho benefit of any country on against
