FIRE BOYS MADE FAST
RUN AND DID GOOD WORK

A fire alarm was turned in to the
fire . department this afternoon at
1920, from Ward 4, District 1, which
brought the department to the home
Of John Kirk, at the corner Of Mill
and S. High street. The alarm was
turned in by a neighbor who first
discovered the fire. The roof was
smoking badly, but It took the de-
partment just one minute to reach
the scene The chemical was brought
into service and the fire was extin-
gulshed before damage Of any con-
sequence was done either by FIRE or
water. 1t was necessary, however, to
cut hole In the roof in order to
get at the fire, which caught from
the flue, The roof was as dry as tim
der and but for the prompt action Of
the fire department serious results
would have followed. To make q
run Of nearly five blocks in one min
ute is probably the record in Salem
for prompt work In fire lighting and
the boys deserve great deal OF
credit for such good service.

Titanic, the largest vessel afloat, this
afternoon is slowly approaching this

about 900 miles east of New York.
Earlier today all passengers we're

The fact that the Titanic is the

only thing that prevented great loss

HOME TREATMENT FOR
SALLOW, WRINKLED SKIN

A. c. r. asks; What should do
for my sallow complexion, and how
can | get rid of my wrinkles?"
sallowness is best removed by re-
moving the skin itself This is eff
fectually accomplished by the use Of
ordinary mercolixed wax, which caus-
es the offensive outer skin gradually
to peel off,in fine particles scarcely
noticeable to the naked eye Within
week or so you will have an enviable
complexion, the new skin exhibiting a
healthful, youthful tint Incompatible
with artificial coloring. Get an ounce
of this wax at your drug store, apply
at night like cold cream, only don't
rub It in. Wash 1t off in the morning
with warm water
For wrinkles try solution Of sax
ollte, one ounce, dissolved in half
pint witch hazel. Battle your face In
this every morning for awhile. The
result will surprise you,
