regardless of religious affiliation, it
has filed a great human need in the
life Of the commonwealth. 1t has min

children and has given them oppor-
tunities of life that would otherwise
have been denied them. Today it has
under its control and supervision the

HAVE DARK HAIR AND LOOK YOUNG
Nobody can Tell when you Darken Gray, Faded Hair
 with Saqe Tea.

Grandmother kept her hair beau tifully darkened, glossy and attract i've with a brew of Sage Tea and Su1- phur. Whenever her hair took on that dull, faded or streaked appear ance. this simple mixture was ap- piled with wonderful effect. By ask ing at any drug store for "Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Compound" you will get a. large bottle of this old time recipe, improved by the addi- ton of other ingredients, all ready to Use at very little cost This simple mixture can be depended upon to re- store natural color and beauty to the hair.
 A well known downtown druggist says everybody uses Wyeth's Sage an6 Sulphur Compound now because it darkens so naturally and evenly that nobody can tell it has been ap- plied-it's so easy to use, too. You simply dampen a comb or soft brush and draw it through your hair, taking one strand at a time. By morning the gray hair disappears; after another application or two, it is restored to its natural color and looks glossy. soft and beautiful-Adv.

Women UnderL Leadership |Of Mrs. Davis Defeated
 Uncle Jerry" Donovan

Working harmoniously for the first time in four years. and materially aided by women voters. the Repub- lican machine rode roughshod over it's Democratic opposition in Norwalk yesterday, and Calvin L. Barton de- feated Mayor Jeremiah Donovan by a majority of 391 votes. The new mayor carried almost every man on his ticket to victory, Democrats gain ing only two important offices, one councilman and tax collector.
 It is the general concensus in Nor walk today, that the women, under the leadership of Mrs. Minerva Davis, were responsible for Donovan's de- feat. Early in the campaign, Mrs. Davis built up a formidable organi- zation, and her efforts were well re- warded at the polls It is the claim of Republican pary leaders. that 2,O00 out of 2,500 women voters are sup
 porters of the G. o. P. Yesterdays results seem to bear out this state ment.
 The new Council, headed by Mayor Barton is composed of seven Re publicans and one Democrat, as follows: Republicans, Samuel J. Keeler, George E. Curtis, Charles Mills, c. Jackson White, George Ing ham, Joseph R. Taylor and Clarence A Brown; Democrat. Thomas James.
 Robert G. Mitchell, Democrat, was returned to the office of tax collector and Jesse T. Dunbar won a place on the Board of Education but other wise 1t was a Republican landslide.

Treasure Hunters Believe They Have Found Boats of Steamer Sunk Eleven Years Ago.

Norfolk, Va. Oct. "A treasure hunting syndicate which has for some time been endeavoring to locate the hulk of the steamer Merida, sunk eleven years ago in collision, be- Heves the wreck has been located and that sS,000.0o0 in gold, silver and gems in the cargo will be brought to the surface soon.
 Rough weather has delayed the &C., tivfties of the crew of the alvaging steamer, the Ripple, but Capt. Nord- strom thinks he has located the life boats of the Merida, and these are believed to lie within a mile of the sunken vessel.
 Equipped with the best gear for salvaging work and with three of the in the picked crew of twenty men, the Ripple left New York on Aug. 30. Since then Capt. Nordstrom has been steadily dragging the bot tom where the Merida is believed to rest on an even keel in about 200 feet of water.
 All three of the divers are capable of working at a greater depth than this. One of them. Frank ]. Cr1lley, holds the worlds record for deep sea diving-aoS feet---made e while he was assisting attempts to rescue the crew of the submarine Els, sunk off Honolulu. Fred Nelson, another of the Nipples divers, went down 2S5 feet at that time, while the third, Frank Kramer, is reputed one of the best divers along the coast

 Philadelphia, Oct. - A machine desired direction. removing the earth in its path and leaving behind it a finished conduit, with concrete lined walls, is the latest thing in subter- ranean construction work. The new device is the invention of Milton R. Sheen, of Philadelphia, and was given its first practical demonstration re- gently, when it dug a tunnel under Fifth and Grange streets here in record time.
 In -four hours the machine con structed IS feet inches of perfectly lined conduit, 52 inches in diameter. Its best record in the test was five feet eight inches of finished tunnel in an hour.
 Traffic Not Interrupted.
 The beauty of the invention lies in thief act that any amount of sewer main, water main and conduit con struction can be carried on beneath streets without causing any inter- ruption to surface traffic. The ma chine can construct tunnels up to 12 feet in diameter. Engineers. con- tractors and officials connected with the Philadelphia Department of Pub lie Works predict that present day methods of engineering und derground will be revolutiondZed with the broad adoption of this device.
 The machine itself consists of a steel drum into which is fitted a re- volving cutting head. back of which is an earth conveyor, and a helical lining constructor. The power is SUD- piled by electricity from a portable generator.
 As the cutting head revolves, tear ing and cutting into the earth in front, the arms of the cutter throw

The total vote boiled yesterday was 6,639, but little short of the 1000 registered at the national election last year. Out of yesterdays total. Barton received 3,515 and Mayor Donovan SPA votes. Two years ago. before the women added their strength to the political parties, 3,596 votes were cast and Donovan defeated Leo Davis, the Republican candidate by majority of 724. In 1917, when Don ovan first ran for office. he defeated Carl Axel Harstrom by the narrow margin of 76 votes. This was Mayor Donovan's third attempt for the mayors office. In the past he has been state representative number of times, and was once elected to Con- gress by the Fourth Congressional district.
 Mayor Barton, who is a member of the construction firm of McHarg & Barton Company, has offices in New York city but has made his home in Norwalk for a number of years. When nominated for mayor he was practically unknown, but once started his popularity increased with great rapidity.
 Other city officers were elected as follows:
 Treasurer-Anson F. Kee1er. City Sheriff-Oliver I. Clark. Tax Co1lector-Robert G. Mitchell School Board - Mary Marshall Brooks, Clara Capen Rave, Jesse T Dunbar.

HRRR57RR51SER52RS

If YOU combined the curative proper ties of every known ready made" cough remedy, you probably could not get as much real curative power as there is in this simple homemade cough syrup, which is easily prepared in a few minutes.
 Get from any druggist 2h ounces of Pinex, pour it into g. pint bottle and plain granulated sugar syrup, clarified sired. The result is full pint of really better cough syrup than you could buy ready-made for three times the money. Tastes pleasant and never spells. ..
 This Pinex and Syrup preparation gets right at the cause of a cough and gives almost immediate relief. It loosens the phlegm, stops the nasty throat tickle and heals the sore, irritated membranes so gently and easily that it IS really astonishing.
 A days use will usually overcome the ordinary cough and for bronchitis, croup, hoarseness and bronchial asthma. there is nothing better.
 Pinex is a most valuable concentrated compound of genuine Norway pine ex- tract, and has been used for generations to break up severe coughs.
 To avoid disappointment. ask your druggist for ''212 ounces of Pinex' with full directions, and don't accept any thing else. Guaranteed to give absolute satisfaction or money promptly re- funded. The Pinex Co.,, Ft. Wayne, Ind.

 at the rear of the tunnel in order to 1 insure an accurate course for the bore. 1 The only exvacation work in con- nection with the operation of the de- vice is the digging of a hole large enough to lower the machine to the required level of the projected tunnel Once set, the current is turned on | and the steel drum leaves the excava- | tion and starts on its underground turbance on the surface of the ground.

 ''In the Malaibar region the ratio of the Mohammedans to the 1Iindus bears 50 to 50. and if it were a case of Mohammedan uprising against the Hindus the latter would have sided with the British authorities for self-p protection.
 ''The uprising between the Indian people against the British broke out sven weeks ago and as yet the Grown military forces have not been able to crush the movement; and not only that, but the rebels are in absolute control of over 100000 square miles of their territory, where they have proclaimed absolute inde- pendence."
