LADIES'! DARKEN
YOUR GRAY HAIR
Use Grandma's Sage Tea and
Sulphur Recipe and Nobody
Will Know.

The use of Sage and Sulphur for
restoring faded, gray hair to it's
natural color dates back to grand
mothers time. She used it to keep
her hair beautifully dark, glossy and
abundant. Whenever her hair fell
out or took on that dull, faded or
streaked appearance, this simple mix
ture was applied with wonderful ef-
feet.
But brewing at home is mussy and
out of-date. Nowadays, by asking at
any drug store for a 50-cent bottle
of "Wyeth's Sage and sulphur Com
pound" you will get this famous old
recipe which can be depended upon
to restore natural color and beauty to
the hair and is splendid for dandruff,
dry, feverish, itchy scalp and falling
hair.
A well known downtown druggist
says it darkens the hair SO naturally
and evenly that nobody can tell it
has been applied. You simply
dampen a sponge or soft brush with
it and draw this through your hair,
taking one strand at time. By
morning the gray hair disappears and
after another application or two It
becomes beautifully dark, glossy, and
abundant

ARMENIANS ARE READY
TO JOIN RUSSIANS

London, Nov. 12.-Reports reaching
the Russian capital from the Turkish
border, attach increasing importance
the part the Armenians are playing in
the Russian-Turkish war.
In several towns occupied by the
Russians the Armenian students have
shown themselves ready to join the in
vading army and explained that they
had prepared themselves for the Rus
sian approach by constant drilling and
by gathering arms secretly. All aloug
the lien of march, according to these
dispatches, the Armenian peasants are
receiving the Russian troops with en-
thusiasm and giving them provisions
freely.
An Armenian newspaper, referring
to this crisis in the history of Ar
menia, publishes the following:
"The long anticipated day of deliv-
erancc from the Turkish Armenians is
at hand, the Armenians are prepared
for any sacrifice made necessary by
the performance of their manifest du-
ty.'
From this border country there has
come to Petrograd further reports of
armed conflicts arising from the re
fusal of Armenians to become Tur-
kish conscripts and surrender their
arms. It is now rumored that the i'm
portant city of Van is today besiegod
by Armenian guerilla bands in great
force.

We're associated with him in the in
stitution of the first Pythian lodge
Washington lodge No. l.
The Bible is, indeed, "the holy
link connecting the childhood and
manhood of the founder" and, like
wise, the first link in the great
chain which now binds into a com
mon brotherhood upwards of one
million men who are pleased to pay
tribute at the shrine of modern
Knighthood.
In the great running of time,
through the cycles and ages which
mark the course of the world from
the beginning, fifty years is but a
mere breath when we gaze in retro

by events of momentous interest, and
Importance in the life of the Pythian
order this epoch spans the time be
tween the original act which brought
modern Knighthood into being, and
its natal day commemorated on the
18th day of February, 1914.
The progress of Pythian Knight
hood, when we reflect upon the won
derful development which is credited
to fraternities and to the benign
spreading of the fraternal spirit, has,
indeed, been the marvel of the age
in which we live. No epoch in all
the worlds history has been so
marked in emphasizing the Brother
hood of Man, as that period of time
embraced within the past half CEN
tury. No fraternal society which was
ever conceived by man and fostered
by the willing hands and hearts of
those who feel and appreciate the
need, influence and usefulness of the
fraternal spirit in the world has
been favored with such signal pros
perity and marked achievement, as
has the order of Knights of Pythias.
Had Pythian Knighthood not been
worthy of this attainment, it could
not today proudly claim these ac-
cOmpishments, nor could it stand in
its present high place among the
great and unselfsh institutions which
have grandly contributed to the am
elioration of mankind.
That this precious relic will here
after be most zealousIy guarded,
there can be no doubt, and, as the
years roll on and this order more
and more weaves its destiny, so will
this, the original Pythian Book of
Law" prove an inspiration to all
who are obligated in the fraternal
faith Of Pythian Knighthood
