Harbor-Trip is Marked BY
Unusual Happenings.
San Francisco, Cal.-With mileage
behind her equal to twice around the
world, and with three years seafaring
since she left Southampton for the
South seas, the schooner yacht Mana,
Capt. Harry Gilman powered thru the
heads the other afternoon bearing as
cargo many crates and boxes contain
ing skulls and other grewsome re-
mains of former residents of Easter
Island in the South Pacific.
The yacht is owned by r. S. Rout-
ledge of London, who has been col.
lecting anthropological specimens for
the British museum. Accompanied by
his wife the scientist arrived here by
steamer from Honolulu two weeks ago
and will go home to London on the
Mana when he can pass thru the Pan.
anna Canal.
To the South Pacific they came via
Magellan, using sails except in Gains
when the thirty-eight horse power
engine was put into commission.
At Easter Island Routledge estab-
lished headquarters, and for nearly
two years dug among the ruins of the
little dot on the Pacific. He unearthed
specimens of prehistoric peoples and
has them all cased and labeled for
shipment to Great Britain.
During the time the party stayed on
the island, Captain Gilman took the
Mana on four round trips to Talca.
hauno, Chile, for supplies, the distance
of the trip being 1000 miles each way.
Several months ago the little craft,
which cruised extensively in the
South seas, started with her owner
for Honolulu and stayed there for
several weeks.
She came in here from Hawaii,
making the run under sail in twenty
seven days, and experiencing only
light winds the entire distance. Under
power the schooner will make six
knots but the engine was not used I'M
til she came into San Francisco Bay.
"Pd much rather go to sea in sail
ing craft" said Captain Gilman, as he
stood on the small after deck of the
80 foot schooner. You know when
YOU go in steam you are go
ing to arrive at a certain time. Under
sail it is all uncertainty and that
makes 1t spicy"
Among the crew of the Mana are
two men from Pitcairn Island who are
descendants of Young of the old Boun-
ty crew. Neither one had seen large
building, a street car or an automo-
bile until they arrived in Honolulu,

early EOS and are going to England

GRANDMA USED SAGE
TEA TO DARKEN HAIR
She mixed Sulphur with it to
Restore Color, Gloss,
Youthfulness.

Common garden sage brewed into a
heavy tea with sulphur added will turn
gray, streaked and faded hair beautifully
dark and luxuriant. Just a few applica-
tons will prove a revelation if your hair
is fading, streaked or gray. Mixing the
Sage Tea and Sulphur recipe at home,
though, is troublesome. An easier way is
to get a 50-cent bottle of Wyeth's Sage
and Sulphur Compound at any drug store
all ready for use. This is the old time
recipe improved by the addition of other
ingredients.
While wispy, gray, faded hair is not
sinful. we all desire TO retain our youth
full appearance and attractiveness. By
darkening your hair with Wyeth's Sage
and Sulphur Compound, no one can tell,
because it does it so naturally, so evenly.
You just dampen sponge or soft brush
with it and draw this through your hair,
taking one small strand at a time; by
morning all gray hairs have disappeared,
and, after another application or two,
your hair becomes beautifully dark,
glossy, soft and luxuriant
This preparation is a delightful toilet
requisite and is not intended for the cure,
mitigation OF prevention OF disease.

THE STRUGGLE FOR RICHES


The hunger for riches in these days
OF luxurious living IL lamentable. It
is found among all ranks of life.
1t is the struggle Of the poor who have
nothing. of the thrifty who have son e.
thing, and of the wealthy who have
much.
In this fierce contest for filthy lucre
honesty in business is sacrificed, the
honor OF men forgotten and the virtue
of women made a commodity.
1t is no longer sufficient to be COM
Portable in life. to have IN abundance
of necessities for the table, a good
home and the joys Of the simple life.
1t is the age of luxury and gayety-
Of dining, winning and dancing.
No one has enough. Every one wants
more. Comforts of life are in the
discard. We must all eat, drink and
d merry, but we forgot that tomorrow
we die.
There Is a pathos in the struggle of
the unfortunate to put bread upon his
table, shoes upon his children's feet,
and provide an education for his boye
and girls and good home for his fam
lily.
II is still more pathetic to find one
who has accumulated riches thinking
of nothing except a greater accumu-
lation of wealth and length Of days
to walk the primrose path OF dalliance.
Such as these plead with the doc
tor to prolong their feverish life, while
they fit from health resort to health
resort to find the tabled spring OF
perennial youth, the while retaining
their grasp on accumulated treasures.
The world dispises the miser and it
despises still more the utterly selfish
rich who turn away from the suffering
and poverty that have always existed
and must always exist as long as the
world lasts.
But it Is a mistake to believe that
the people of this great country are
divided into only two classes, the suf-
fering poor and the insufferable rich
In this land of golden opportunity
the toiler who is satisfied with
the conditions Of simple living and
who is not swept off his feet by the
eager pursuit of luxurious life can
look forward hopefully to the day
when he shall have achieved compe--
tance, have educated his children and
provided satisfactorily for his declin'
ing years. It is for him to win or lose.
In this Republic-so highly favored
OF God-the miserly rich and the
struggling poor are exceptions. not the
rule. On every side great institu-
tions of learning, hospitals for the
care of the sick, establishments for
cientific development, foundations
for promoting the public welfare, and
libraries for free instruction are pro
vided with a hand so generous that
we are the envy of the Old World.
This Is the substantial and recog
nized fact. 1t should make the nation
grateful and appreciative not only Of
the bounty of Providence, but also OF
the intelligence, the high mindedness
and noble purposes that animate the
American people and that make
wretched poverty, and still more
wretched miserliness, the exception
and not the rule.-Leslie's.

Old Saws Resharpened

II at first you don't succeed, why
try again?
Never put off until tomorrow what
you can't do today.
Be sure you are right and then GO
ahead and find out you're wrong.
The world owes every woman a low
ing.
Familiar hilarity breeds contempt.
A man is known by the company
that keeps him.
Many true word is spoken in ges-
lures.
Rome was not built in a day Of mu-
nicipal contracts.
It Is easier for the eye of a camel
to pass through a needle than for the
kingdom of heaven to enter rich

Whatsoever a man soweth, that
shall he also rip.
Owe no man everything.
In the day of prosperity be joyful,
but in the day of adversely consider
able more.
II is more blessed to give than to

AN INDEFENSIBLE STRIKE.

The manager of the foreign department of the Nippon Kaisha Japans greatest steamship company. put the longshoremens strike situation in comprehensive way when he said:

 With this comes suggestion from Mir Mihara that a continuance strike conditions the Seattle water may result in the loss large portion of commerce and the routing of Oriental steam ships by the Panama canal to New York.
 If the longshoremen underpad overworked, there would be public sympathy for their and her would be nsstence that these be justly dealt with but this the situation have earned S10 SIP day under the wage scale recently paid by ship ping concerns and this the strikers accept because employers will not agree to close the industry all save union members.

According to advices, the Interstate Commerce Commission will investigate the recent increases in the freight rates by the transportation com panies in Alaska. There is no doubt that the in vestigation will reveal some interesting features, provided it is conducted with fairness. The pub lie as we'll as the companies will be heard and will of necessity bring out the reasons if any, for the exhorbitant rates now charged. As it is now, we only know that we are being charged as much more than we think we should be charged. In support of our opinion point out the fact that formerly, and when the business for the companies was only half of what it is today, we only paid half of what we are made to pay now, which leads us to believe that we are being muct- ed unnecessarily, and until the companies can show good reasons for the increase, we believe we have right to complain. However, the in- vestigation will show.
