TO DARKEN HAIR
 APPLY SAGE TEA
Look Young! Bring Back It's Ma. tural Color, Gloss and
 Attractiveness

Common garden sage Drewed into "a heavy tea with sulphur added. will turn gray, streaked and faded hair beautifully dark and luxuriant. Just B few applications will prove ! 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 Q bottle of Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Compound at any drug store all ready for use. This is the oldtime recipe improved by the addition of other ingredients.
 While wispy gray. faded hair is not sinful. we all desire to retain our youthful appearance and at 'ractiveness. By darkening your hair with Wyeth's Sage and Sul- phur Compound, no one can tell, because 1t does 1t so naturally, so evenly. You just dampen a sponge or soft brush with it and draw this through your hair, taking one small strand at time; by morning all gray hairs have disappeared. and. after another application or two, your hair becomes beautifully dark, glossy. soft and luxuriant.

 Efforts of Premier
 Lloyd George enGeayored to re. srme negotiations but this move seemed likely to be baked by de Valera's insistenee that the Irish delegates to such a conference must be accepted as having derived their authority from free and in iepend ent Ireland. The British Premier refused to concede that point as. he said, it would constitute a recogni tion at the very outset of lreland's claims for separation from the Brit sh Empire.
 This obstacle was overcome by the two parties agreeing upon Lloyd Georges formula that the purpose CT the conference should be to ascer. tain how lreland's association with the empire might be best reconciIel with Irelands national aspirations.
 Under that formula, meetings have been in progress since early Octo- Der. The proceedings have been secret, It has been reported, how ever, that British representatives submitted a plan to give Ireland a status of association" with the em- pire and to allow her an almost con- plete measure of self-government to be exercised by separate parlia- ments in Ulster and South Ireland. respectively, and by a Central Coun. cil jointly chosen.
 Ulster Brought In
 This brought Ulster again into the negotiations and compelled Pre-. mier Lloyd George to defer his trip to the Washington Conference on Limitation of Armament so that he could devote his time to an effort to overcome Listers hesitation or oh. jection to cooperate with the South Of Ireland In any form of common government.
 The general understanding was that the Sim Fein delegates insisted that there must be no partition of Ireland into the North and South with different forms of government and different relations to the em. pire.
 To reconcile these conflicting view. points, Lloyd George invited Sir James Craig. the Ulster Premier to come to London in the first week in November to talk things over. The situation was so delicate that Sir James desired the support and ad. vice of other Ulster leaders and fl. nally all the members of the Ulster cabinet were called to London. Unionist opinion in England has been steadfastly against any coercion of Ulster" It was generally conceded that one of the most difficult stages Of the negotiations had been reached.

The 30-miia sustained velocity, said Mir Samnars is not indicative of the speed Of tle gusts. however, which he estimates to have been at least at the rate Of 50 miles an hour at times.
 Cause of High Winds
 The high winds Of the past week have been occasioned, MT. Summers said, by an area of hi9n pressure that has persisted over the north ca stern portion of Alaska and Yukon Territory. Coupled with this have been q series of low pressure areas that have moved from the North Pa cfflc southeaStward over the North Pacific States. and that occasioned The heavy rains and snows reported from Oregon and Washington recent ly The difference in pressure be- tween these northern and southern regions has been unusually great, with resultant high wind velocities from a northerly quarter
 Records Broken
 Record breaking features along several lines have characterized the weather of the current month, he said
 November, in Southeast Alaska is normally a rainy and snowy month, with the precipitation attend ct by squalls and gusty winds. This year the month has been compara- lively dry, only 312 inches of rain having been recorded to date. The average fer the entire month for previous years is SIT inches. So far this month there has been only 0.2 inch of snowfall, as against 37 inches to this date in last Novem- Der; 91 inches in 1919; 51 inches i'll 1918, and 137 inches in 1917.
 A Long Dry Spell
 There has not been so much as trace of precipitation since Novem- Der 13-a period of 12 days, including today. This breaks all records for the month since 1917, when the Ju- neau office was established. The records show. however that there have been longer periods without of which was in July of last year, when there were 16 consecutive days without rain In January, 1920, there occurred a period of 13 consecutive days without rain or snow, and in February, 1919, spell of 12 days with only trace of precipitation.
 Many Days Sunshine
 This month we have already been blessed with IA clear days, according to the, records, eight of which have been consecutive Only one other r1onth-Julv, 1920--in the last five years has had a greater number, and that was only one more than we have had in 25 days of this month. Should the last five days of this month be overcast and devoid of sun shine, the percentage of sunshine for the month will be 45 per cent of the possible amount-a greater percent age than any other November in the last five years"
 MT. Summers stated that Novem- ber 1917, had only 12 per cent of the possible amount of sunshine. This was the month in which the steamers Mariposa. Alki, Admiral Evans and Spokane were wrecked in Southeastern Alaska waters.

same as the May decrease. slightly
less than the April decrease. and
only Sc per cent as great as the
March decrease. Thus there would
appear to be a wide variation dur
ing the four months.
Viewed on another basis, however,
the decreases OF the four months
hang closely together. In each
month the decreases fell short of the
estimated shipments in the month by
almost the same amount, and that
amount was a small one, say $4,000
to 125,0o0 tons. or or 10 per cent
of full capacity for a month. The
monthly decreases tapered Off from
March to June, but so did the ship
ments.
1t has been well known that the
steel corporation was booking very
little strictly new business. and the
figures confirm what has been said
that the corporation has lately had
little of capcellations. Little con-
struction work, such as would p-o-
duce orders, has come out, while
as to the corporations regular Gus

producers evince a decided unwiIl-
ingness 10 predict that such busi-

Effect Of Lower Prices.
After every reduction" in steel
prices the question arises how much
business It produced. A dificulty
with last weeks announced reduc-

most of the commodities the reduc-

than real, being simply an open rec
