DON'T PULL OUT
The GRAY HAIRS
A Few Applications OF Simple Rem
edy Will Bring Back The
Natural Color.

Pull out one gray hair and a dozen
will take its place" is an old saying,
which is, to a great extent, true, if no
steps are taken to stop the cause.
When gray hairs appear it is a sign
that Nature needs assistance. 1t is
Natures call for help. Gray hair, dull,
lifeless hair, or hair that is falling
out, is not necessarily a sign of adj
vancing age, for there are thousands
of elderly people with perfect heads
of hair without a single streak of gray.
When gray hairs come, or when the
hair seems to be lifeless or dead, some
good, reliable hair-restoring treatment
should be resorted to at once. Spe-
cialists say that one of the best prep
arations to use is the old-fashioned
sage tea" which our grandparents
used. The best preparation of this
kind is Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur
Hair Remedy, a preparation Of domes-
tic sage and sulphur, scientifically
compounded with later discovered
hair tonics and stimulants, the whole
mixture being carefully balanced and
tested by experts.
Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur is clean
and wholesome and perfectly harm
less. 1t refreshes dry, parched hair
removes dandruff and gradually re-
stores faded or gray hair to its nat
ural color.
Don't delay another minute. Start
using Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur at
once and see what difference few
days treatment will make in your
hair
This preparation is offered to the
public at fifty cents a bottle, and is
recommended and sold by THE OWL
DRUG STORE.

OF THE GREAT
INDIAN RESERVATIONS

Especial to the Silver State.)
SPOKANE, WASH, Jan. 3.-More
than 1000, 900 acres of agricultural,
grazing and timber lands will be avail
able for homestead purposes when the
Colville Indian reservation, north of
Spokane, is opened to settlement, ac.
cording to Clair Hunt, a~lloting agent
in charge of the ap~portionment of the
reserve land.
"There are about $3.50 allotments
to be made Mr.. Hunt said while in
Spokane today, "and the Indians are
choosing chiefly agricultural and graz
ing lands. This will take about 300,-
900 acres of a total of 100000 con
tanned in the reserve, leaving 1,100,-
600 acres that will belong to the
people.
"'Much of this will be first class ag
r%icultural land and a large part of it
viii be covered with some o. the finest
timber in the state of Washington. A
few of the Indians have shown a dis
position to take land in the timber
regions.
s'The Colville Indians are good ag-
riculturists and grow all kinds of
grains, fruits and vegetables. Some
of the finest peaches raised in the state
of Washington are grown on reserva-
tion lands. The Indians are peaeeable
and friendly to the whites. They are
industrious and thrifty, and only a few
of the older men, who are incapacitat-
ed for work, require aid from the gov
ernment.o
Mr.. Hunt added that while no date
has been fixed for the opening of the
reservation, it is likely this will follow
soon after the completion OF the allot-
ment wrok. Much of the preliminary
work of assigning lands has been com
pleted, but so far few of the allotments
have been made. However, the work
is progressing and with the arrival of
another agent and additional help it
is expected to complete the assignment
and allotment in short order.
