20 WATER PIPES BREAK;
DAMAGE is SLIGHT

A four-inch water pipe broke at
ST. Aubin-ave. and Warren-ave. east,
at O'Clock, Monday morning. A
sewer pipe is being laid alongside the
water pipe and the latter was not
properly braced up in the trench.
A one-inch service pipe broke in a
trench in Garland-ave.. near Kerche-
val-ave.. where the pipe was being
laid from the main into a residence.
Both breaks were caused by the
heavy rain and the action of the
earth in the trenches. Only slight
damage was done In either case.
What was reported as a break in a
42-inch water main at Champlain-st.

The recent return from cruise of
the we'll known Joe Donevaro recalls
the story of the way in which he Sc
cured his first job. Joe applied to
a Boston skipper many years ago for
a position on his ship. He asserted
boldly that he knew everything which
was to be known about a vessel, al
though he was at that time only a
lad of is.
Well, said the captain, with a
grin. "let's see how much you know
Find me three ends to that rope
there and I'll give you a job"
He pointed to a new coil of rope
which he had just purchased. Joe
eyed the rope a minute and then
pointed TO the usual two ends.
There are two of your ends" he
said. Then suddenly, before the
skipper could stop him, he picked
up the rope and heaved it overheard,
saying as he watched it disappear;
There's another end to your rope. -

THE FIRST GRAY
HAIR SIGN OF ACE
Easy Way to Preserve Natural
Color of the Hair and
Make 1t Grow.

A harmless remedy, made from COM
mon garden sage, quickly restores gray
hair to natural color. The care of the
hair, to prevent it from losing its color
and lustre, is just as important as to
care for teeth to keep them from dis
co!oring. Why spend money for cos
metics and creams to improve the COM
pleXion, and yet neglect your hair, when
gray hair is even more conspicuous and
suggestive of age than wrinkles or q
poor complexion? Of the two, it is
easier to preserve the natural color and
beauty of the hair than it is to have
q good complexion. .
All that is necessary is the occasional
use of Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Hair
Remedy, preparation of common gar
den SaCc and Sulphur, combined with
other valuable remedies for dry, harsh,
faded hair, fandruif, itching scalp and
falling hair. After q few applications
of this simple, harmless remedy, your
hair will gradually be restored to its
natural color, in a short time tho dam
druff will be removed, and your hair
will no longer come out but will start to
grow as Nature intended it should.
SOon't neglect your hair, for it goes
further than anything else to make or
mar your good looks. You can buy
this remedy at any drug store for
fifty cents bottle, and your drug
gist will give your money back il you
are not satisfied after using. a Pur-
chase bottle today. You will never
regret it when you realize the differ
ence it will make in your appearance.

structed also on the Pupin principle,
between Dover and Calais.
The latter enables conversations to
be carried on between Glasgow, Ed
nburgh and Paris, and also between
Aberdeen and the French capital, a
distance of go miles. Successful
trials have also been made between
London and Geneva, a distance of $50
miles, and from London to Basel, a
distance of 600 miles.
Recent progress in the art of sub
marine telephone cable manufacture
win have far-reaching consequences.
At the present time there are over
400 miles of submarine telephone ca
Bile in use in the world, and of this
total about one-half is represented by
the four cables between France and
England and the two between Bel
gium and England. The longest sub
marine telephone cable lies between
La Panne (Belgium) and st. Mar
CARTE Bay (England), a distance OF
55 miles.
The European international long
distance line systems have likewise
received important additions, due to
the opening of the line between Par
is and Madrid, 900 miles, and the di-
rect line between Berlin and Rome,
still under construction. AS regards
the continent, there is now scarcely
any important city that cannot talk
with any other importan ely. BY far
he largest interurban or toll telephone
plant in Europe has been built by the
government, which, according to the
latest official statistics had about
one-half of the total interurban or
toll telephone wire of Europe.
