timated population of 6,504,1S5,
must give 1882 of the $4,000
young men to be called on the first
draft. A city with $4,000 popula-
ton would be required to give 16S
men. These appointments would
be subject to slight allowances for
alien enemies, for men who have vol
unteered, and for other causes.
The population estimates far from
attempting to show actual popula-
tions. simply are improvised figures
reached by considering the number
of registrants in each subdivisions
as 9.32 per cent of the population,
since the total number registered.
9,659.3S2, was 9.32 per cent OF the
total estimated population, 103.635.-
800. The process resulted in large
dummy population showing ! for
citi es with war industries where
there has been a recent inflow of
workmen without their families.
Since the figures are based on the
number of men available for military
service. however, officials consider
the estimates fair as based for ap-
portionment.

COMB SAGE TEA IN
FADEOORGRAY HAIR.
II Mixed with Sulphur II Darkens 90
Naturally Nobody can
Tell.

Grandmother kept her hair beauti.
fully darkened, glossy and attractive
with a brew Of Sage Tea and Sulphur.
Whenever her hair took on that dull,
faded or streaked appearance. this
simple mixture was applied with won
derful effect BY asking at any drug
store for "Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur
Compound" you will get large bottle
of this old-time recipe, improved by
the addition of other ingredients, all
ready to use. for about 80 cents. This
simple mixture can be depended upon
to restore natural color and beauty
to the hair.
A wellknown downtown druggist
says everybody uses Wyeth's Sage
and Sulphur Compound now because
IL darkens so naturally and evenly
that nobody can tell it has been ap-
plied-it's SO easy to use, too. You
simply dampen a comb or soft brush
and draw it through your hair. taking
one strand at time. By morning the
gray hair disappears: after another
application or two, it Is restored to its
natural color and looks glossy, soft
and beautiful. This preparation Is a
delightful toilet requisite. II Is not
for the cure, mitigation or
prevention of disease.

turned today from wondering what
the national commission is going 10

probable successor of Bill Carrigan,
former manager of the Boston Red

Bill turned In his third and last

season.
Bills announced intention OF sitting

iron safe the rest of his life didn I

an assertion that he stood ready to
help the Boston team over the rocky
roads of early spring, looks great
deal as if Bill might yet have con-
siderable hand in the Red Sox play.
Jack Barry is expected to be pro
claimed leader of the worlds champ
ions. But there are also murmurs
concerning Larry Gardner and other
members of the Red Sox. Barry al
ready has given his word that he
does not want to manage anything,

/ his mind.

agreement made by Carrigan. So
