Why Women Are Sensitive About

IL the truth We're known women are
no more sensitive about stating the
fact of their age thar. men. Ask any
man of your acquaintance how old he
is, and if he is over 80 he will evade
the answer.
But women like to look young and
seem young, and this desire is perfectly
right and proper. Why?
Because rosy cheeks, bright eyes
and grace and elasticity of form indi-
cate perfect womanhood and the kind
of youth that is not measured by wears
and which ought 10 last till past so.

Chief Buckley Recommends the
Purchase OF a Steamer.

Chief Engineer John A. Buckley, of
the Augusta fire department mas SUD-
mitted his report for the IL months be-
ginning April l. 1906 and ending March
/, 1907. There have been SO fires, Is OF
which the teams have attended. Chem
icals only were used to eXtinguish "a,
and from one to IA were used as the
case required. The amount of proper
ty actually involved was worth $780,
900 and the loss thereon $25, 1856. OF
this loss insurance was paid to the
amount Of $685., Of which S4SS.97 was
paid out of the district. There was no
insurance on property damaged to the
extent of 1925, of which $4,000 was
at the fire in the laundry at the Insane
hospital. All the fires were confined
TO the buildings in which they were
discovered and there was not Il single
total loss during the period.
Among the more important improve
ments enumerated in the report are
the new bath room at Cushnoc Hose
House, the gift OF Horace North, \
brass sliding pole and electric hitch for
the doors of the same building. Two
cellar pipes and a patent door opener
have been added to the equipment.
Chief Buckley is that a secondhand
steam fire engine of the second or
third class he purchased to replace the
steamer CuShnoc, las there are many
places where a steamer is needed" He
also recommends an increase in the
pay Of the three drivers and the two
assistant engineers. In advocating
new rotary gongs for two pieces of the
apparatus he says that the present
gongs are single stroke gongs similar
to the ones used on bakery wagons and
electric cars"
The thanks of the department ar"
extended to the various city officers
for their cooperation and to the Whit
man e Adams Co. for check Of $780,
to the management Of the Insane hos
