FIFTH ROUND
TENNIS PLAY
Four Feature Matches This Afternoon
in Case Courts Are Not
Spoiled by
Rain.

UNITED Press Leased Wire Service.]
FOREST HILLS, l.. l., Aug. 80 -
Rain early today threatened to cause a
postponement of the fifth round of the
national singles tennis championship
here.
Four feature matches, bringing to-
gether the surviving stars of the
tournament, were scheduled for this
afternoon. The present champion, K.
Lindley Murray, Niagara Falls, N. Y,
was matched with William M. John
ston, the San Francisco star who put
the Australian, Gerald l.. Patterson,
out Of the running yesterday. Richard
Norris William II, Boston, was to face
Maurice e. Mclaughlin, the Califor-
mia comet" and Norman E. Brookes,
the lone survivor of the Australian
team, was to meet the Philadelphia
star, William T. Tilden II. Wilson
Merrill Hall, New York, was paired
with Wallace Johnson, Philadelphia.
A trio of the big stars of the tourna-
ment, including two of international
fame, went out in sensational matches
which marked the fourth round yester-
day. Capt. Gerald L. Patterson, the
veteran Australian, succumbed to the
superior playing of the California star,
VIM. M. Johnson; The Jap, Ichiya
Kumagee, was eliminated by William
T. Tilden II, Philadelphia, and the
Southampton winner, Charles 8. Gar
land, Jr., the former Yale star, was
beaten by the Australian, Norman e.
Brookes With the defeat of r. Y.
Thomas by Richard Norris Williams II,
the chances Of the Australians in the
tournament were put up to lone sur
vtvor, Broekes.
Though it was far from a perfect
exhibition of skill, with loose, cratic
playing on 10th sides, the match be
tween Patterson and Johnston was
thrilling and spectacular. 1t went five
bitterly contested sets. Johnston took
the first, 6-2. The Australian made his
service good in the second set and
won, 6-3 The Californian came right
back and took the third set, GA. A
plugging uphill fight after Johnson
had started away in the lead, gave
Patterson the fourth set at ga. The
first set went to the Californian, 7-5,
after Patterson had again gamely
come from behind to tie.

DARKEN GRAY HAIR,
LOOK YOUNG, PRETTY
Sage Tea and Sulphur Darkens
So Naturally that No
body can tell.

Hair that loses its color and lustre, or
when it fades, turns gray, dull and life
less, is caused by lack of sulphur in
the hair. Our grandmother made up a
mixture of Sage Tea and Sulphur to
keep her locks dark and beautiful, and
thousands of women and men who value
that even color, that beautiful uark
shade of hair which is so attractive, use
only this old-time recipe.
Nowadays we get this famous mixture
improved by the addition of other ingredi-
ents by asking at any drug store for a So
cent bottle of 'Wyeth's Sage and Sui
phur Compound" which darkens the
hair SO naturally, so evenly, that nobody
can possibly tell it has been applied. You
Just dampen q sponge or soft brush with
it and draw this through your hair, tax
ing one small strand at time. By morn
ing the gray hair disappears; but what
delights the ladies with Wyeth's Sage and
Sulphur Compound, is that, besides beau
tifully darkening the hair after a few
applications, it also brings back the gloss
and lustre and gives it an appearance
of abundance.
Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Compound
is delightful toilet requisite to impart
color and a youthful appearance to the
hair 1t Is not intended for the cure,
mitigation OF prevention of disease

Bird With Hands

In the forests of British Guiana lives
the hoactzin, singular bird, whose
young possess free claw at the end
of each wing, which they use almost as
the monkey uses his hands In tree
climbing.
The nest of the hoactzin is In tree
overhanging the water, and the young,
unlike most birds, are active from the
first.
The outermost quill feathers of the
wing, which might hamper the free use
Of the claws, do not grow much until
the rest of the wing is strong enough
to make climbing less necessary. Then
they grow out, and the claws are alb
sorbed. The adult bird does not need
them. Should a young hoactzin fall
into the water it makes for the shore
and seizes a branch, up which it quick
ly climbs.

A new sport has made it's appear
ance in Paris as a result OF the long
range cannon bombardment. One may
drop in at any cafe or restaurant any
day and find the game In progress.
After the dinner or between sips OF
coffee a paper is passed around with
the question: Eat what hour will the
big cannon fire it's next shOtT Each
person fills in the time he thinks the
strafing will begin and pays a franc.
The firing of the cannon causes more
excitement than fear. The waiter
rushes at the list, while the others
crowd around, shouting and gesticu-
lating, to find out whose guess has
been the nearest and who gets the
money.
