BROADWAY TREE BLOWN DOWN BY STORM
Strong Wind and Heavy Rain Do Harm and Good at the Same Time Stores Close Early.

The rain on Monday afternoon turn ad ito one of the worst storms of the past few months during the evening, and, accompanied by a strong wind, made it difficult to navigate with an umbrella. Shortly after Il o'clock an elm tree in Broadway about twelve feet south of the monument in the Lit tie Plain was broken off 8 few feet from the ground and fell into Union street, carrying the electric wires. Uu- on its being reported to Captain Lin ton at the police station he notified the street department and electric light of- ficials. and the work of straightening out the wires was soon started and the removal of the tree commenced.
 The banging of blinds and the blow ing over of all things movable gave evidence through the night that those outside had anything but an enviable time. No other damage of an extent was reported during the evening.
 Because of the storm both of the large department stores closed up and allowed their clerks to go home from thirty to fifteen minutes before the usual closing time of g o'clock. The other stores that usually keep open Monday night also put out their lights | and closed up, as there were no cus- toners to be seen on the streets.

WEST MAIN STREET
 JOB NEARLY FINISHED.
Water. Department Has the New Twelve Inch Pipe in Use There Now Worked Night and Day Making Connections.

The new twelve inch pipe which the water department has been laying through West Main street for a dis tance of zoe feet beyond Pierson's barn is now in use and the long trench is being filled in. It was necessary to lay the pipe the entire length and all low the old six inch pipe to remain until ready to make the new connec- tions at each end. This was done on Saturday night the job being complet- ed about o'clock Sunday morning. It was therefore only short time that the water was shut off from the resi- dents of that section, and now there is a continuous large pipe through to Thamesville, serving to increase the pressure st that end of the city. The old pipe has been removed from the ditch, and the connections with the houses made from the new pipe. On Monday employees of the department worked in the rain to hurry the filling of the ditch. and it will be completed in & day or two.
 Supt. Burnap reports that the water in Fairview reservoir is now 205 inches below high water mark and steadily dropping. The rain of a week ago amounting to IT of an inch, gave lit tie relief. and much more is needed to
 get the reservoir in shape for the win ter. The storm of Monday will dc much to help the springs, but several | heavy rainfalls will be required to fill l the pond.

MY DOUBLE Chin VANISHED
As If BY MAGIC
80 POUNDS OF SUPERFL UOUS FLESH
WENT Whit
Says Mae Edna Wilder
Dieting Physical Culture Massage Nothing
ternaIIy. Apply With Open Hand


Il got rid of my double chin in less
than six weeks" says Mae Edna Will
der. and with the double chin went
thirty pounds of superfuous flesh that
l had carried with me day a'-d night
for more than a year. I did this by a
process that IS my own discovery, a
process of external application. I SIM
ply applied the treatment TO my double
chin and it vanished as if by magic. I
used the same application in the same
way to rid myself of thirty pounds Of
superfiuOus flesh, and now I feel salts
fed. Five minutes night and morning
for two weeks is all the time needed,
and your most intimate friends need
not know anything about It."
Miss Wilder stands five feet high,
weighs 100 pounds, and is the picture
of perfect health. She says that she
feels ten years younger and a hundred
fold more active. and that she would
not take on her burden of excessive
flesh again for anything. In talking
about The remarkable change in her
personal appearance, she says: Il con-
slider a double chin one of the most I'M
slightly physical defects, and superfiu-
Gus flesh a burden that one must carry
with them everywhere and all the time.
