Its protest that there is no in tention of the British Government to utilize these restrictions or imposi tions for the furtherance of British trade is also several times repeated in the face of the obvious fact that the impositions are bound to effect that result. It is declared that the policy is designed to shorten the war. Further Negotiations Probable The note fails to meet the Ameri can demand that the names of Ameri can tirms be stricken from the black list, but attempts to convince the State Department that the British po sition is just and founded on law. It leaves open the door for further ne gotiations, which is expected to fol low. A part which attracted much of ficial notice dealt with the subject of peace, based on the theory that one American contention had been that there exists no military necessity for the blacklist, that it is unneces sary for the Allies to prejudice neu tral commerce and that nothing which happens in distant neutral countries can influence the result of the great conflict. "If that really were the position." says the note, "it is possible that the measures taken by His Majesty's gov ernment might be described as un called for, but it is not. Wo may well wish that it were so. Even though the military situation of the Allies has greatly improved, there is still a long and bitter struggle in front of them, and one which in jus tice to the principles of which they are fighting imposes upon them tho duty of employing every opportun ity and every measure which they can legitimately use to overcome their opponents. "One observation which is very commonly lieafrd is that certain belf igerent acts, even though lawful, are too petty to havo any influence in a struggle of such magnitude. It is, I know, difficult for those who havo no immediate contact with war to realize with what painful anxiety men and women in this country must re gard even the smallest acts which tend to increase, if only by a hair's breadth, the danger in which their relatives and friends daily stand, or to prolong, if only by a minute, the period during which they are to be exposed to neutral perils. "Whatever inconvenience may he caused by neutral nations by the ex ercise of belligerent rights, it is not to be compared for an instant to tho suffering and loss occasioned to man kind by tho prolongation of the war even for a week." The note of the British Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs begins with a reference to the note com municated by Ambassador Page on July 28 last, respecting the addition of certain firms in the United States to the statuory list compiled and is sued in accordance with "The trading with the enemy act, 1915." This act, it is repeated, was ex plained last January as a "piece of purely municipal legislation, and provides that-His Majesty may by proclamation prohibit persons in the United Kingdom from trading with any persons in foreign countries who might be specified in such proclama tions or in any subsequent orders." The object of the act, it is further explained, is simply to enjoin those who owe allegiance to Great Britain to cease having trade relations with persons who are found to be assist ing or rendering service to the enemy. Nothing Short of Complete Abandonment Satisfactory New York, Nov. 15. Anything short of "a complete abandonment of the blacklist policy" is unsatisfac tory to the Association to Resist British Domination of American Com merce, which is conducting the trado fight in this country against the black list, according to a statement to-day by Maurice B. Bluementhal, of coun sel for the association. "Now as from the beginning, we are entirely satisfied," the statement adds, "that President Wilson has taken the matter very much to heart, and that lie is deeply concerned in having England recede from its posi tion without qualification or condi tion, as demanded by his note of pro ing the matter strictly from the Am test. With President Wilson handl erican point of view and with the ability, force and firmness of which he is capable, we are entirely satis fied to await the solution of the dif ficulty at the President's hands and In his own way." PRESIDENT WILL TAKE OATH TWICE [Continued From First Page] at the capitol. In order, however, to obviate the raising of any question as to what person is exercising the functions of Chief Executive on Sunday, March 4, 1917, Secretary Lansing will advise President Wilson to take the oath for a second term as President on that day. The oath will be readministered to Mr. Wilson on Monday. The ruling of the State Department disposes of the theory that the Secre tary of State will become acting Presi dent of the United State for the period between midnight on Saturday, March 3, 1917, and noon of Monday, March 5. The search of the archives of the State Department likewise brought to light sufficient evidence 'to lay tho ghost of a tradition that Vice-Presi dent Daniel D. Tompkins, of New York, served as President of the Unit ed States for the twenty-four hours of Sunday, March 4, 1821, between tho first and second terms of President James Monroe. On account of the interest mani fested in the question as to who will be President on Sunday, March 4, 1917. the State Department has pre pared a form letter to be sent to all persons making inquiry on the sub ject. The letter cites the Marshall op inion and also points out that Presi dent Hayes, who was elected for a term beginning March 4. 1877, which day came on Sunday, was sworn in at 7.05 p. m. March 3, at the White House, Chief Justice Waite admin istering the oath and the oath was again taken by President Hayes on March 5, after his inaugural address.

O'NEIL TO MAKE SWEEPING PROBE [Continued From Hr.it Pago 1 O'Neil admitted that he had been at work for many weeks probing affairs of companies and that he might have something to say later on in the month. "1 have more companies under in vestigation, but until I complete my inquiries it would not be fair to say I anything. I cannot say now what com i panics are being probed, but keep your eye on the courts. That is where they will turn up if I Hnd anything wrong," said he. "This Consolidated Invest ment Company, which seems to be try ing to scare stockholders in small com panies into going into a big concern, is, in my mind, not operating right and I am going to take up its affairs with the Attorney General. Life in surance is too sacred a thing and too many women and children are de pendent on it to permit any monkey business. That's what I'm here for, and I'm going to let people know it. If tlicre are any crooks, I'll get them and sue them. • "I believe we will be able to bring hefore the Legislature before (he next year information tlint will show up conditions until the Legislature will feel called upon to strengthen our state insurance laws and bring every form of insurance under 1 lie supervision of Ihe Commonwealth," lie continued. "By that I mean everything." Mr. O'Neil declined to state ex plicitly whether he meant that, frater nal and beneficial concerns should be included, but it is understood lo be his policy, and he lias also advocated more inspectors. There are but six now and O'Neil wants more. LAW HOLDS UP JITNEY OPERATIONS [Continued From First Pane] tion. That date will be November 24. The procedure will bo for Prothono tary Harry F. Holler to certify the official count to City Council after tlie returns have been approved by the Dauphin county court. City Clerk Charles A. Miller will present this cer tification to Council at the meeting Immediately following the completion of the count and this will be Tuesday, November 2S. With the certification of the passage of the amendment to the city authorities, the changed law becomes effective at once. Council, it is understood, must re ceive the certification at, a regular meeting so that it is impossible to hur ry the procedure. "Some folks blame the city authori ties for delaying the jitney matter," said one city olficial to-day, "but no body is at fault. The law won't per mit the return judges to open the sol dier vote until the third Friday after its receipt. This naturally holds up the count and prevents the proper certification to the City Council. But except unofficially, Council doesn't I really know that the jitney ordinance j Has been passed."

HAVE DARK HI AND LOOK YOUNG Nobody can Tell when you Darken Gray, Faded Hair with Sage Tea. ________ Grandmother kept her hair beauti fully darkened, glossy and attractive with a brew of Sage Tea and Sulphur. Whenever her hair took on that dull, faded or streaked appearance, tilts simple mixture wus applied with won derful effect. By asking at any drug store for "Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Compound" you will get a large bottle of thir old-time recipe, improved by the addition of other Ingredients, ail ready to use, for about SO cents. This simple mixture can be depended upon to restore natural color and beauty to the hair. A well-known downtown druggist says everybody uses Wyeth's Sago and Sulphur Compound now because it darkens so naturally and evenly that nobody can tell it has been applied— it's so easy to use, too. You simply dampen a comb or soft brush and draw it through your hair, taking one strand at a time. By morning tho gray hair disappears; after another application or two it is restored to its natural color and looks glossy, soft and beauti ful. This preparation is a delightful toilet requisite. It is not intended for the cure, mitigation or prevention of disease.

Same Street City State GLASS OF WATERS BEFORE YOU ERT ANY BREAKFAST Wash poison from system each morning and feel fresh as a daisy. Every day you clean the house you live in to get rid of the dust and i dirt which collected through the pre vious day. Your body, the houso your soul lives in, also becomes iilled up each twenty-four hours with nil manner of filth and poison. If only every man and woman could realize the wonders of drinking phosphated hot water, what a gratifying change would take place. Instead of the thousands of sickly, anaemic-looking men, women and girls with pasty or muddy complex- Ions; instead of the multitudes of "nerve wrecks," rundowns," "brain fags" and pessimists we should see a I virile, optimistic throng of rosy* i cheeked people everywhere. Everyone, whether sick or well, should drink each morning before breakfast, a glass of real hot water with a teaspoonful of limestone phos phate in it to wash from tho stomach, i liver, kidneys and ten yards of bowels the previous day's indigestible waste, sour fermentations and poisons, thus cleansing, sweetening and freshening the entire alimentary canal before putting more food into the stomach. Those subject to sick headache, biliousness, nasty breath, rheumatism, colds; and particularly those who have a pallid, sallow complexion and who are constipated very often, are urged to obtain a quarter pound of ■limestone phosphate at the drugstore which will cost but a trifle but is suf ficient to demonstrate the quick and remarkable change in both health and appearance awaiting those who prac tice internal sanitation. We must remember that inside cleanliness is more important than outside, because the skin does not absorb impurities |to contaminate the blood, while the pores in the thirty feet of bowels do.
