Number of Tramps Increasing?
Secretary J. F.. Bagley of the COM
mission called the Journals attention
on Wednesday to the fact found in
the reports now being received from
the towns and cities to the effect that
about double the number Of tramps
We're cared for during the year 1915
than in the previous year. No more
expense seems to have been incurred
but the figures are doubled. Perhaps
the officials are keeping more accu-
rate accounts and perhaps more
tramps have made their appearance.
Anyway. the tramp question is a
more serious one than ever before.
Mr. Bagley is firmly of the conviction
that the passing along system in
vogue in most parts Of the country
is entirely wrong. Either the tramp
should be made to work sufficiently to
repay the cost Of his entertainment
by the municipality or he should pay
the penalty of being a vagrant.
A very successful way Of attending
to the tramp case was illustrated at
the recent meeting Of the Portland
Economic Club, when Director D. 1.
| Epson Of the Bureau Of Municipal Re-
search of Dayton. Ohio, said they
tried this plan: Every person apply
ing for a lodging was obliged to take
BATH From an average guest list of
Is, it quickly dropped to 40. Then each
person given a lodging was compelled
to work for half day on some city
work and the nightly attendance soon
dropped to 10. a mere drop in the
bucket compared with the expense of
the IS nightly dodgers.

FEW FOLKS HAVE
GRAY HAIR NOW
Well-knOWn Local Druggist Says
Everybody is Using Old-Time Re-
cipe of Sage Tea and Sulphur.

Hair that loses its color and lustre
CT when it fades, turns gray, dull and
iifeless, is caused by lack of sui
phur in the hair Our grandmother
made UP mixture of Sage Tea and
Sulphur to keep her locks dark and
beautiful, and thousands of women
and men who value that even shade
of hair, which is so attractive use
only this old-time recipe.
Nowadays we get this famous mix
ture improved by the addition of other
il gradients by asking at any drug
store for a 50-cent bottle of 'Wyeth's
sage and Sulphur Compound" which
Garkens the hair so naturally, so ev-
Gully, that nobody can possibly tell it
has been applied. You just dampen
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; but what
delights the ladies with Wyeth's Sage
and Sulphur Compound, is that, be-
sides beautifully darkening the hair,
after few applications, it also brings
back the gloss and lustre and gives
it an appearance of abundance.
Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Com
pound is a delightful toilet requisite
to impart color and a youthful an
pearance to the hair. 1t is not intend
ed for the cure, mitigation or proven

Multiple Kick Is New Freak
With Peculiar Formation Made

NEW YORK, Nov. EVERY football
season brings some new play or series
! OF plays to the fore and although the
present one is scarcely half completed
several novel gridiron wrinkles have
already made their appearance. The
| innovation to attract the greatest
amount of attention, in the East at
least, is what is known as the "Mul-
/, tiple Kick perfected by Foster San
ford, coach of the Rutgers College
eleven. Strange to say il is not a
| series of kicks, as its appellation
would appear to indicate, but a single
place kick in which several players as
sist in the holding of the ball while
another supplies the propelling power.
1t is development of the old try
for field goal from placement, which
the quarterback after receiving the
ball from the center dropped to one
knee and held the spheroid while the
fullback or some other player tried to
convert the drive into field goal. I'm
der the new method, two players
stretch themselves at full length upon
the ground, heads opposite each other
and at right angles to the direction of
the kick, at a point about five yards
back of the scrimmage line. Directly
behind them stands the quarterback,
while behind him is located the player
who is to make the kick.
When the center passed the ball it
is received by the quarter who stoops
and places it in an upright position
upon the ground while the players, al
ready prone, reach out and hold it
steady with one or both hands. Hav-
ing accomplished his part in the play,
the quarter jumps quickly to one side
and the actual kicker steps or runs
forward and drives the ball into the
opponents territory for a field goal Or
punt.
The particular advantage of the
Multiple Kick over the ordinarily
attempted punt, or drop-kick, lies in
the fact the ball is held securely until
the full momentum of the drive has
been communicated to the inflated pig
skin. Owing to the spheroid shape of
the intercollegiate football it is hard
to drive it forward straight and true
unless it is kicked at just the correct
point With two men holding it on
opposite sides there is little chance
for the ball to twist as it is kicked
and the Rutgers players have fire.

seventy yards from this formation.
The play, however, requires perfect
