GALLAUDET MACHINE FLEW
 OVER NEW LONDON.
Hydroaeroplane Made Test Flight
 Down the Thames River.

Many New Iondoners Wednesday morning thought they saw Uncle Sans aeroplane fleet commence oper- ations for the purpose of locating a foreign submarine base, the opinion being formed when about o'clock a large flying boat appeared over the center of the city and later settled on the waters of the river and headed for the sound. The general opinion pre- vailed that the hydroaeroplane was one of the four brought to New Lon- don by the cruiser North Carolina, an- chored in the lower haTbor.
 Inquiries brought about the infor- nation that the boat was one of the Gallaudet machines which for the past week has been at Gales Ferry for test ing purposes. For several days men from the Gallaudet Engineering com pany of Norwich have been working on the craft. Wednesday morning the machine worked for a time and the aviator had a pleasant flight over New London. Finally heading for the river, the machine took to the water off the New London line wharf and headed down stream.
 Later the boat was seen returning, but this time her motive power was a motor boat which was towing the flying craft. Engine trouble developed while the machine was on the rough waters of the sound and the passing motor boat lowed the craft to port
 The machines on the North Carolina have not been put into service yet, al- though they are daily expected to be seen in the search for hidden sub marine base.

SAGE TEA pARkENS
 HAIR TO ANY SHADE
Don't stay gray! Here's a simple recipe that anybody can apply
 with a hair brush.

The use of Sage and Sulphur for re- storing faded, gray hair to its natural color dates back to grandmother S time. She used it to keep her hair beautifully dark, glossy and attractive. Whenever her hair took on that dull, faded or streaked appearance this simple mixture was applied with won derful effect
 But brewing at home is mussy and out-o date. Nowadays, by asking at any drug store for 50 cent bottle of 'Wyeths Sage and Sulphur Com pound" you will get this famous old preparation, improved by the addition of other ingredients, which can be de- pended upon to restore natural color and beauty to the hair.
 A well-known downtown druggist says it darkens the hair so naturally and evenly that nobody can tell it has been applied You simply dampen a sponge or soft brush with it and draw this through your hair, taking one strand at time. By morning the gray hair disappears, and after am other application or two, it becomes beautifully dark and glossy.
 Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Com pound is @ delightful toilet requisite for those who desire a more youthful appearance. It is not intended for the cure, mitigation or prevention of dis ease.
