OPINIONS AND OPINIONS— Having leaned heavily on the at-torney-general in the past, it is somewhat surprising to see Governor Jackson throw away his crutch and attempt to walk alone. His disregard of the attorney-general's advice with reference to two bills recently signed must have created something of a sensation att he statehouse. The attitude of the Governor ,is not unlike that of men who, in preprohibition days, could drink it, or leave it alone. The Governor can take the attorneygeneral's advice—and does on most occasions—or he can leave it alone. Attorney-General Gilliom was positive that the Nejdi bill, presented as remedial legislation on public utility matters, was invalid. He told the legislature that, but the legislature passed the bill. Then he went into details for the Governor's benefit, declaring that the new provision was invalid in itself and that it would destroy such beneficial laws as now re-late-to the subject. The attorneygeneral declared also that the Harlan bill, designed to permit the public service commission to disregard some utility charges, was not valid and that it should not be signed. The Governor has usually paid the strictest attention to what the at-torney-general said. In matters related to the public service commission, especially in the merger case, there was reason to believe that the hearts of the Governor and the at-torney-general beat as one. In the Judge Dearth case the legislature said one thing and the attorney-gen-eral said another, but the word of the attorney-general influenced the Governor in the impeachment proceedings. Evidently there are opinions and opinions. When they suit the Governor he relies on them and even tends to pass (he buck to his legal adviser. When something else intervenes he prefers the legal judgment of the legislature. Fortunatly this sometimes works out to the inteerst of the public.—lndianapolis News. There are a few public men too honest to take advantage of unfair salary raising. Two years ago the salaries of congressmen and senators was increased from $7,500 to SIO,OOO. Among those who opposed this boost during the terms of office tor which elected were Senator Borah, republican, of Idaho, and Congressman Tucker, democrat, of Virginia. And these men without publicly announcing it, have refused to accept the increased pay. Its fine to hear as we do so infrequently of public men being so much in earnest. Business conditions are improving now after a two months slump and within a week or two should be normal again. Much of it is in the confidence you have in your own community. If you will quit growling and complaining and go out after business you can get it. One local coal man sold a hundred and fifty cars yesterday. using the telephone to make kis inquiries for business. Several business men tell us of happenings in a business way which indicate that the spring stir is on. Get busy and you will be surprised at the results. A twenty months old baby in the children's ward of a Chicago hospital was restored to life* after being pronounced dead. The child had been ill with pneumonia and her breathing
| finally stopped but Dr. Ehrlich refus'jug to give up started artificial respiration on the still form with the result after several hours of seeing the babe open her eyes. She continued to improve and will completely recover, another wonderful victory for modern medical science. L'WW* An organzatioii in the stale of Maine for the purpoM of boosting that section, raised $25,000 last year and spent it in advertising with the result that $3000,000,000 was spent In that state by tourists. Does it pay? You know it does and the same thing would bring it to the individual who has something to sell ami offers it through the medium of the Daily Democrat. Try it right now. Announcement is made that the discovery of an extract of the suprarenal gland of cows which will counteract heart failure in pneumonia and will prolong life in many instances, has been proven. It will be expensive for it requires 2,000 cows to produce a small amount, but if it will prolong or save life, that will not stop the use of it and there is always the chance of securing it at less cost. Lets hops. '■ Efforts to secure the release of Warren McCray, former governor of Indiana from the Atlanta prison have been renewed and with some chances of approval by the president. Indiana folks generally feel that the former chief executive at the worst was a "piker” compared to a number who are free and admitted to the finest ball rooms. o—- ♦+♦♦♦+♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦* ♦ TWENTY YEARS AGO TODAY * * * ♦ From the Daily Democrat Fife ♦ > Twenty Years Ago This Day. * ♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦ March 15 —Thirty-two more pledges to buy lots taken today.

The builders of 800 years ago apparently did not reckon with the possibility that the level of the Rhine would sometime fall. The piles driven when the cathedral was built served well in supporting the masonry so long as they were immersed in water. but due to the fall in the level of the river, the water-logged soil dried and shrank and the piles decayed. The wall apparently sagged and cracks appeared. Due to ossible danger through using the cathedral, the authorities closed it sometime ago. ? o D. M. Hensley made a business trip to Fort Wayne this mornifig. SAGE TEA TURNS CRAY HAIR DARK That beautiful, even shade of dark, glossy hair can only be had by brewing a mixture of
Sage Tea and Sulphur. Your bailis your charm. It makes or mars the face. When it fades, turns gray or streaked, jufct an application or two of Sage and Sulphur enhances its ap-
pmirance a hundred-fold. Don’t bother to prepare the mixture; you car. get this famous old recipe improved by the addition .of other ingredients for only 75 cents, all ready for use. ft is called Wyeth’s Sage and Sulphur Compound. This can always be depended upon to bring back the natural color and lustre of your hair. Everybody uses “Wyeth's” Sage and Sulphur Compound now because it darkens so naturally and evenly that nobody can tell it has been applied. You simpiy dampen a sponge or soft brush with it and draw this through the hair, taking one small 'strand at a time; by morning the .gray hair has disappeared, and after another application it becomes beauItifully dark and appears glossy and lustrous.

Wales Risks Life To Rescue Terrier Loudon, (United Press). —How the Prime of Wales recently risked his life to save his pet Cairn terrier “Coia” from death under the wheels of an express train, is a story that has just leaked out of Melton Mowbray where the prince makes his foxhunting headquarters. According to witnesses of the incident. "Cora” who is~a frisky terrier presented to the Prince during his American tour in 1924, suddenly sprang from the prince's arms as a London express train raced into view.
