BE PRETTY! TURN
 CRAY HAIR DARK
Try Grandmother Old Favorite Recipe of Sage Tea and
 Sulphur

Almost everyone knows that Sage Tea and Sulphur, properly com pounded, brings back the natural color and lustre to the hair when faded, streaked or gray. Years ago the only way to get this mixture was to make it at home, which is mussy and troublesome. Nowa- days, by asking at any drug store for "Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Compound" you will get large bottle of this famous old recipe, improved by the addition of other ingreients, at a small cost.
 Don't stay gray Try it Nc one can possibly tell that you dark ened your hair, as it does it so na- turally and evenly. You dampen a sponge or soft brush with it and draw this through your hair, talk ing one small strand at a time; by morning the gray hair disappears and after another application or two, your hair becomes beautifully dark, glossy and attractive.

PERTINENT TOPICS
 WILL BE DISCUSSED
 AT BIG CONVENTION

WRANGELL, Alaska, Nov. 11.-To the Edtor-The annual convention of the Alaska Native Brotherhood will be held this year at Wrangell, at which time they will discuss topics pertinent to their welfare
 Some of the questions being asked us are: What are the fishing rights of natives?" Are Indian Land Tit les any good?" What kind of a school system do natives attend 2" What is the Indians place in poli- tics?'
 The Indian says he has certain rights in fishing which have ne50r been used Cor abused). He says that he has no title to his land and therefore cannot give what he has not. He says that lack of proper association in the school system is detrimental to his progress in e1l cation, therefore a block to his hay ing anything in common with his fellow citizens. He says that he has 1 a place in politics but is not accorded that right
 Can it be denied? Then it might be well for those who can dc SC. to come to our coavention am tEere make clear a position which " can not understand
 We are here to stay and haze 1 stayed several generations longer than our fellow Americans and 50 long as we stay we must remain a problem on the minds of all rr0 gressive, and even retrogressiya citi zens of Alaska. Almost half of Alaska's population is nonvotiag and nonproductive so far as the Terri torial coffrs are concerned Is that to remain so continually in order that the few representinS the Indian Bureau shall continue to hang a milestone around the neck of the Indian?
 It is time that the people of the Territory were awakened to the ac tual conditions and what d pity tha' the poor, ignorant Indian must dc it. Aye, he must cen beg for 2 chance to become what foreign i'm migrants of all types and classes are invited to beeome-citizens of tnc United States.
