GYPSY MOTH CAMPAIGN.
Residents of Infested District Doins
 Effective Work.

Residents of Infested District Doing
 Effective Work.
 Stonington, July 18,-Benjanlin Wald- en of New Haven, assistantsState en- tomologist, is here to take charge of operation against the gypsy moth whose entrance into this State has created such a furor. The period of the season is rapidly approaching when the most careful precautions must be taken to check the work of the moths should they appear in evidence.
 The Bay View District is the onlv place in the State where there has abeen much evidence of the moth, and it is a great question why this place should be especially afflicted. Every person in tn borough thoughly understands the appearance and the habits of the in sect. The authorities are taking hold of the matter in systematic manner and putting forth every effort to attain the extermination of the colony.
 The farmers and owners of woodland or shrubs are taking extra precaution to keep their property free, for it is the last part of this month when new fami- lies are expected to arrive and it is feared that they will be freed.

JULY STORMS DAMAGE.
SOUTHERN N E. TELEPHONE
 COMPANY HEAVILY TAXED.

Five Storms the First of the Month of Unusual Severity-Storm of Tenth Oc-
 casiOn Telephone Company Extensive Repairs-COmpeIled to Call Construc-
 tiOn Forces Throughout state-LOcaI
 and Toll Lines Principal Sufferers.
 The July storms thus far have heav- lily taxed the Southern New England
 Telephone company on account of the disturbances that have been created in the long local and toll line wires The company has met with greater difficult | ties in this direction this season than during any summer before in its histo- ry. During the first of the month there were five storms of unusual se- verity occurring within sixty hours in l the western half of the state. The storm of last week Tuesday and the one that took place day before yester- day, which extended Jve- a large sec-
 ton of the state, the seva;l v being es- lpecially noticeable in Bt dgeport, Nor walk, South Norwalk and Stamford, have occasioned th5 telephone compa- | ny extensive repairs and clearance work Men who have been with lbe company twenty years say they have never seen nylAtng like it in the whole of their experience. Considering the fact that tha company has Ole hundred thousand miles of wire in the state extending in every direction, it will be easily se 4n that the exposure
 must have been considerable, causing great deal of listuroance. On ac- count of the interruptions In the ser- vice caused by the storms the comLa- ny has been comp2lled to call on tbe construction forces throughout the
 state to assist the regular repair men in restoring the long country tele- phone lines. In the eastern section of
 the state there have been only two very damaging storms during the
 month, affectiag towns m the vicinity of Willimantlc, Norwich and New
 London. The storms shat took pls4y
 during the first off the month, all within sixty hours, put the repairmen l pll lHGlF Hl5lllt. IllG 'NOIh Oi GleebIlIlS
 the wires from the disturbances caused Iby the first of the series, was not
 wholly through with before it had to
 be repeated in the same districts and along the same network of wires on
 account of the trouble occasioned by the succeeding storm. The long local and toll lines through the country have been the principal sufferers from
 the disturbances. The company has had every available force employed In keeping it's lines clear and in working order, and the work has been conduc-
 ted with every attention and regard
 for the public. At the present time
 the telephone company has forty wire
 and pole gangs at work in the state,
 extending the lines and service in the
 ffty-one exchanges in Connecticut.

FACIAL MASSAGE

At this age of the worlds history new inventions and discoveries are surpris- ing the people and adding much to the comfort and luxury of living. The twentieth century intellect seems ade- quate to cope with many problems and remove many obstacles which are in the way of progress "The human form divine'' is receiving it's share of atten- tion, and schools for physical culture are springing up and are extensively patronized by hosts of intelligent peo- pie who appreciate the benefits which accrue from a proper training of the system. "The human face divine" is also being much benefited and beauti- fled, and there are institutions where, under skilful treatment, one can be all most transformed from plainness to beauty. Facial massage can effect wonders in the way of removing wrin- kles and blemishes from the face and clearing up and vastly improving the complexion. Manicuring is another art which adds to one's appearance. At $40 Chapel street, Hubinger building, room No, 6, Mary D. Lengel has been located for a number of years. Her establish ment is conceded to be the leading one in this state by hundreds of patrons who have derived great benefit from her treatment. She is, thoroughly con- versant with her profession. and her aim is to give the best and most satis- factory results. And she invariably succeeds. As a consequence her parlors are visited by people from far and near who have heard of the brilliant results of her treatment
