Sage Tea Darkens
Hair To Any Shade
Don't stay gray! Here's IA simple
recipe that anybody can apply
with u hair brush

The use of Sage and sulphur for
restoring faded. gray hair TO its nat
ural color dates back to grandmoth-
er's time. She used it to keep her
hair beautifully dark, glossy and at
tractive. Whenever her hair took on
that dull, faded or streaked appear
ance. this simple mixture was applied
with wonderful effect.
But brewing at home is mussy and
out of date. Nowadays, by asking at
any drug store for a bottle of wy
eth's Sage and sulphur Compound,
YOU will get this famous old prepa-
ration. improved by the addition of
other ingredients, which can be de-
pended upon to restore natural color
and beauty 10 the hair.
A well known downtown druggist
says 1t darkens the hair SO naturally
and evenly that nobody can tell II has
been applied. You simply dampen a
sponge or soft brush with II and
draw this through your hair taking
one strand at a time. BY morning the
gray hair disappears. and after an
other application or two, it becomes
beautifully dark and glossy. (Adv)

"That has to be expected" he said,
"and more so in this drive than in any
of the previous drives. Solicitations

British Biplane to
Make 5-HOur Test
Before Sea Flight
Handley-Page Machine to
Take Last Tryout To-day
Preparatory to Start From
St. Johns for Irish Coast

tCopyright. 1919. New York Tribune Inc)
ST. JOHNS, N. F., June 1.-THE
giant Handley-Page biplane, which yes
terday made it's first test flight for the
transatlantic voyage, will take the air
ragain tomorrow for its last tryout be-
fore starting across the ocean.
1t will remain aloft about five hours,
testing the petrol consumption under
conditions approximating those of the
transoceanic fight and also to test
out thoroughly the directional wireless
equipment of the machine and de-
termine its efficiency. After these tests
the biplane will be ready to start for
England at the first opportunity the
weather affords.
Captain Frederick P. Baynham, who's
Martinsyde plane was damaged in a
crash when he attempted to start
across the Atlantic with Harry Haw-
ker several weeks ago, announced to-
plane is aboard the steamship Graci-
ana, which reported by wireless to-
day that she likely would arrive here
tomorrow forenoon. Captain Rayn-
ham SAID the new engine would be in
stalled at once, test flights would be
made within few days and he hoped
to make another start across the ocean
by the first of next week.
Captain -Raynham said he WAS I'M
able to give out yet the name of the
navigator who will accompany him, but
the impression exists in some quarters
that he has chosen the man who is
now on his way here. Others doubt
this, saying that Raynham will start
with another capable airman now in
, St. Johns.

in dual role. The big orange and
black flag that he carried testified that
he was there as an athlete, one of the
huskiest football players that ever had
also there as the chairman of the
Greater New York Citizens committee
of Scouts. He, too, had a guard of
Scout cubs, chaps so small that they
seemed cast for the role of Liliputians,
with Mr. Edwards playing CULVER.

Then marched the citizens commit

Of the United States; Guy Emerson,
member of the executive committee
of the Boy Scouts drive; R. A. c.

G. Selmer Fougner, director of pub

After this group marched the police
band and then fifty Boy Scouts carry
ing American flags, followed by the
rest of the parade, unrolling itself as
an ever interesting alienation of
athletes, marching Scouts, floats show
ing athletic events, both outdoors and
in, and nine other bands. Scattered
through it all were myriads of flags
so that the avenue seemed again like
the river Of color that it was in the
Liberty Loan parades.
If some of the Scouts near the head
of the line trod on the heels of the
Scouts ahead of them it was not from
a lack of consideration for their fel-
lows, but rather it was due to their
effort to get better view of the base
ball players who marched just ahead

discovered yesterday that with the
S1,0O0,00O Boy Scout drive half over
only $13O,17O has been officially re-
ported. This was made known at a
luncheon of team captains at the Bank
ers' Club. The total should have been
S250,OOO. A. B. Leach, chairman of the
Manhattan canvass committee, told
those at the luncheon that if they
slackened their efforts the drive might
meet with disastrously poor finish.
1t was announced that $25,S6O addi-
tional had been raised since Tuesday
noon, of which amount S15,960 was sub
scribed by individuals, while the rest
comprised adult mepberships.
Subscriptions to Fund
The subscribers and the amounts
were:
Western Union Telegraph Company,
$4,000; Henry c. Frick, $4,000; E. c..
Converse, $1,000; Jacob H. Schiff,
1000; Harold T. Pratt, $1,000; Fred
erick B. Pratt, $1,000; Franklin Simon,
$1,000; John T. Pratt, $3.50; Herbert
a. Pratt, $3.50; Columbus O'D. Iselin,
5000; Wolcott G. Lane, $1,000; Ralph
D. Mershon, $50, and John F. Hylan, $40.
Franklin Simon, besides personal
contribution of $1,000, sent word that
1000 workers in his department store
had agreed to become adult members.
The team captain carrying on the
drive in traction circles said he had
received assurances from officials of
the Fifth Avenue Coach Company that
every member of the organization
would join the cause. The largest
amount reported by team captain was
$1,535, and the next largest was 81, 1893.
These amounts all represented 81 mem
berships
Miss Mildred Fitzgerald, the only
girl present, raised $3.50 in 81 member
ships during the noon hour yesterday
in the financial district. She has been
averaging 500 every day during the
lunch hour since the opening of the
campaign.
Pleads for More Dollars
eve have three more days." Mr..
Leach said "and we have not arrived.
If the Boy Scout story,were told prop
erly, nine persons out of ten would
gladly give a dollar. Perhaps we are
too modest in asking only dollar.
Persons that limit their interest in
boyhood to one dollar are not giving
the necessary thought to the impor-
tance of this movement for the better
ment of Americas youth"
Mr.. Leach referred to men of in
huence and money in the city who
have not responded promptly to the
appeal. He pointed out that a special
committee had been formed to reach
individuals who are not giving the
cause the support it merits.
Mr.. Leach also said: "Of course we
have been working under high
pressure, and it would be quite impos-
sible to keep up the pace. No doubt
our campaign will wind up with a
whirlwind rush, as was the case with
the last Victory Loan.
Noticeable Apathy
"Another matter brought to my at
tention by workers is that many per-
sons seem to be apathetic-do not
seem to have the proper interest in
our boyhood. Although we expected
the machine to slow up, we did not
expect it to come practically to a halt
Now this has to do only with large
subscriptions, not the one dollar aduft
memberships.

Boxing Float Cheered.
A boxing float that carried Benny

the line of march, while these two
boxers took turns punching a bag.
This section of the parade was under
the direction of kid" Mcfarland, a
former boxer, who is now connected
with Collector Edwards's office.
The biggest hit of all was the float
labelled "The OF Swimmin' Hole" This
included a tank of water covered on
the sides by canvas Crooks" A Boy
Scout in bathing suit, who had volun-
teered to "tread" water all the way
from Washington Square to the point
of disbanding at Fifty-ninth Street
found the bath too cold after he had
travelled a few blocks immersed to the
