BIRMINGHAM'S NEW "CITY
 BEAUTIFUL" DEPARTMENT

When your hose begins to crack, cut it open at the point of cracking and insert a brass sleeve, half in each end of the hose. Some sleeves are made so that they have to be bound with wire to hold them in place, while oth- CTS, equally expensive, are made with prongs bending backward so that when slipped into place they hold perfectly without any binding.
 A good hose should last eight years before showing any serious signs of wear and then its life can be prolonged for many years by doctoring. That is, if the hose was a good one in the be- ginning. A good hose is a good invest ment
 If you have a good hose treat it properly. After using don't hang 1t on nail and don't leave it in the sun. Always leave little slack at the noz- gle, empty the water out after using, and when you hang it up in the cellar see that the support is broad enough to prevent injury.
 A good plan is to fasten the hose to the tap in the cellar after summer is over and arrange it so 1t can be conve- niently uncoiled in case of fire.

April was called by the ancients
the loveliest of the months. This
was because It typified both the
beauty OF Venus. for whom 1t was
named. and her philosophy of the
uses OF beauty. Venus was the
most beautiful creature who ever
Lived. ~ She was the Lillian Rus

ed to marry her. and speculation az
TO her choice was as great as that
with respect to Alice Roosevelt's.
She KNOCKED the wind out OF every
body by marrying vulcan. who
did general vulcanizing and q
blacksmithing business. and was
about the age Of Secretary Nc
Adoo. He was 80 ugly that people
thronged to his shop to trade. just
as we go TO see Eddie Foy. 1t had
peen supposed that Venus would
marry Apollo or some other raw
ishing male beauty. but she took
Vulcan and held the soldering iron
In the shop for him when the auto
mobile season was on. She explain
ed that she considered Il the duty
OF every beautiful woman to marry
an ugly man. and asked how else
the averages of beauty was to be
raised. Nobody could say, and from
that day to this beautiful women
have married ugly men. Thus we
have in April the loveliness of ven-
us and the thunderbolts of Vulcan.
