AN OLD RECIPE r.
TO .DARKEN HAIR
Common garden Sage and Sulphur
makes streaked, faded or gray
hair dark and glossy at once.

Almost everyone knows that Sage
Tea and Sulphur, properly compound
ed, brings back the natural color and
lustre to the hair when faded, streak
ed or gray; also ends dandruff, itch
ing scalp and stops falling hair. Years
ago the only way to get this mixture
was to make it at home, which is
mussy and troublesome. ..
Nowadays we simply ask at any
drug store for "Wyeth's Sage and Sui
phur Hair Remedy" You will get a
large bottle for about SO cents. Ev-
erybody uses this old, famous recipe,
because no one can possibly tell that
you have darkened your hair, as it
does it so naturally and evenly. You
dampen a sponge or soft brush with
it and draw this through your hair.
taking one small strand at a time
by morning the gray hair disappears,
and after another application or two,
your hair becomes beautifully dark,
thick and glossy and you look years
younger.-Adv. E.

o,HAeAN's TRIPLE PLAY.
Was One of Seven Professional Play CTS Credited with Remarkable Play.

The death of Harry O'Hagan, who comitted suicide in his Newark home
 recently, removed from the ranks one
 of the seven professional baseball
 players having the unique distinction
 of performing the all but impossible
 feat of pulling off unassisted triple
 play. In fact. it was because or that
 achievement, so widely exploited at
 the time that 0'Hagan was best
 known in baseball. for he was never
 real star, although always quick
 thinker and of great value to any club
 having his services. Paul Hines, who
 now holds a responsible government
 position in Washington, was the first
 to make an unaststed triple play
 That was back in 1878 as member of
 the old Providence National league
 duplicate Haines' performance, and
 since then five others have pulled off
 the trick, including Sim Murch,
 Jamaica Plain boy. who is now run
 ming a local baseball team, and Neal
 Ball utility man with the Red Sox.
 O'Hagan's triple was made while
 he yas first baseman of the Roclles- ter club of the old Eastern league now the Internatio league-in 1902. The play came in a game at Jersey City during Rochester's third visit to that city during the season. The same was on Monday afternoon, and Harry O'Hagan. who had just been secured from the New York N Rochester, was playing his first game at first base. succeeding in both capacities Ed NcKean, who made his with the Cleveland club. Harry Blake, another old Clevelander WAS playing in the outfeld. and Eddie Phelps, who has since seen SC many years of major league experience with the Pirates and the Dodgers, was be- hind the bat that afternoon on the Rochester side. For Jersey City, Cvtariey Carr later manager at De- troif and now boss in Kansas City, was the first base and manager the veteran Billy Shtndie was at third base: Sfioch. another veteran Of the ma fors was at shortstop, while Frank McManus, Lewiston boy, was doing the bulk of the Jerseymen'S backstop work at that time.
 When Osdagan by a combination Of quick thinking and quick running, pulled the triple play there were Jersey City men on first and second | bases and, of course, none was out, | Tobnnie Butler, a South Boston boy, l was at the bat for the skeeters He fpied te lay down a buHt. but it was one of these short. slow liners that o5Hagan rushed in and just caught. ,efofe the man at first could get back.

BRESNAHAN WON'T
 UNDERMINE EvERs.
Trojan Johnnys Job Safe From Ex- St. Louis Manager, Who Will Be Cub The New Leaders.

!
 Johnny Evers is safe from Bresna- han. so Roger says in signed state I ment as to where he stands. Roger ! means that he does not look with COW l etous eyes on the job Of the nervous lad from Troy, and that there is no secret covenant between himself and Owner Murphy of the Cubs whereby he is to ultimately have charge of the little bears from Chicago.
 Roger need not have underestimat- ed his public by making any statement of his position in the matter. Every ono knew it in advance; one reason for Rogers popularity is that he Is not the sort to turn 6 fellow player a trick of the kind.
 Nevertheless, in Evers' place we con- fess that wa would welcome Roger with the same oordiality with which We would cherish a hot coal in the bare palm. For it's not what Rogers intentions may be that menace EVers but what the latter's shortcomings are. Unless Johnny measures up to big standards early he may prove to be a mere manager of the spring training trip Many experts believe that Frank Farrell is not running any risk in taking one Chance.
 Many Heads to Fall.
 Next season will be a workable reign of terror for baseball leaders. Right now it appears that those who are set In high places are certain to face strong prospect of decapitatton if they fail to suit the fans.
 Among the others whose belfries may cease to have further connection with their aIimentary canals are: Joe Tinker, John Evers, Miller Huggins, George Stallings. Clark Griffith, Joe Birmingham, Jake Stahl and Frank Chance.
 Each one of them is in a peculiar position of danger from popular wrath. Griffith and Stahl have aroused enthu- siasm by their respective successes last year, that any wavertng in 1913 will be greeted with marked disfavor. In Boston they are inclined to wield the hammer on the champions, in any case, owing to the trouble during the worlds series over handling local rooters.
 All the new managers in both leagues should worry-real worry, too. Not one of them is in a secure posi- tion and the chances are the thumbs down sign will be given by the callous fans after a partial trial
 A managers lot is not a happy one. Too few have survived after embark ing in this angle of baseball For fans are not patient with failure. What ever may be at the bottom of it, the must bear the odium nd pay the price.

FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL
AN IMPROVED TONE.
Downward Movement of Market
 Checked Yesterday.

New York, Feb. 14-There was g distinct improvement today in the tone of the stock market The down ward movement of recent days was checked. and there was no trace of the nervousness which was evident at times yesterday. Bear traders renew ed their attack early in the day, but were able to make little headway, ex- cept in the copper group. Operators on the short side apparently were less sure of their position, and evidence that the market was offering effective resistance to bear selling led to eonstd- erable covering.
 The market hardened and during the latter part of the day rose well above yesterdays close, with Union Pacific and Steel in the forefront of was a reaction, and final prices showed small and irregular changes.
 The declines in the copper group were based upon a further break in the metal market. Both the London and Berlin markets were considers bly lower, and while the leading selling agencies here were reluctant to con cede that their quotations were being shaded. it was stated that some sales were being made at 15 1-2 cents for Electrotric. compared with the recent hRure of Is 1-2.

EvERS TO TEACH CUBS
 ART OF BUNTING.
Few Players now Resors to Laying Them Down-Hit ard Run More Used day.

OSSO l6-Gzy-
 | Manager Johnnie Evers of tho Chi- 1 cago Cubs is going to teach his men | all he knows about bunting during
 their sojourn in the south this spring. i Esvers Is one of the best bun ters in 1 the National league and he hopes to | win many games by teaching his men
 to switch from pure hitting to the '1ay-thena- down" game.
 By his determination to teach his l men this almost lost art. Evers Is al-
 ready beginning to show one of the many characteristics which led to his l being termed one of the brainfest men 1 in baseball For since the advent of 1 the sacrifice, which. in turn. gave way to the hit.and-run, very few. if any,
 players resort to dropping the ball down the base lines in their effort to
 get on base.
 Before the entrance of the sacrifice, the bunt was favorite method for reaching first base. Then the sacrf- flee came into being. and bunters be- came scarce. Now. in the era of the hit-and-run play good men with abil- ity to lay the ball down still remain scarce.
 In the American league, the same condition of affairs holds. For, as matter of fact, since the passing of Keeler, there has been less bunting in the league each year. The best ex- ponent of the art to-day, considered from the point Of constant resort 10
 
 nevertheless our modest opinion that Nap Lajoie is a past master at drop ping the ball down
 Others who still possess the ability to bunt are Bush. Collins and a few others Bunting has played an i'm portant part in baseball. Records show many instances where a game was broken up by bunting, instead Of hitting. It throws the opposing team up in the air as players do not know what is coming.
 Then there Is another side of ths bunting game, illustrated best by an incident that happened at League park several years ago when Keeler was playing his last season as a reg ular of the New York team. Willie was at bat and the whole Nap team was on it's toes waiting for a bunt, which was Kee1er's forte. The di- mfnutive fielder did just that thing, and laid one of the prettiest bunts imaginable down third base line. And it took the best effords of Bill Brad ley, peerless third sacker. to shoot the ball tc first ahead of flying William It was at this juncture that one of the older men in the stand leaned back in his chair, and exclaimed to nobody in particular, Did you see that beauti- ful bunt7 I've had my moneys worth right now. That's what l call play ing ball.
