Man Risks Life to Save
Whining Dog From Death
Lowered Into Chasm by Rope, He
Sends Animal to Safety.

SUNBURY, Pa.-Words of praise
and commentator of his fel1ow-em-
ployes did not mean half so much to
Lewis F. Nuss as the barking and
tail-wagging of the little dog which
joyfully jumped about his feet and
legs.
A few days ago a cave-in occurred
under the tracks of the Greenough
branch, Sunbury division. The cave-in
was about so feet in diameter and of
unknown depth, in fact so serious as
to prevent the operation of the Green
ough Colliery, near Shamokin.
While the men were engaged in pre-
venting further slides Supervisor w.
V. Belts heard the whining of dog
coming from down the breach Upon
making investigation they found the
little animal standing on shelf about
50 feet from the surface. Lewis Nuss,
rather than see the little fellow buried
alive, volunteered to save it. Accord
ing1y Nuss was lowered in the breach
by means of a rope. Another slide
would have meant certain death for
both the man and the dog.
Reaching the shelf Nuss securely
tied the dog to the rope and saw him
hoisted to the surface in safety, after
which he was pulled out OF danger.

SAGE TEA TURNS
GRAY HAIR DARK
It's Grandmother's Recipe to
Bring Back Color and
Lustre to Hair

That beautiful, even shade of dark,
glossy hair can only be had by brew
ing a mixture of Sage Tea and Sui
phur. Your hair is your charm. 1t
makes or mars the face. When it
fades, turns gray or streaked, just an
application or two of Sage and Sui
phur enhances its appearance hum
dredfold
Don't bother to prepare the mixture;
YOU can get this famous old recipe inn
proved by the addition of other ingre-
dents at small cost, all ready for use.
1t is called Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur
Compound. This can always be de-
pended upon to bring back the natural
color and lustre of your hair.
Everybody uses "Wyeth's" Sage and
Sulphur Compound now because it
darkens so naturally and evenly that
nobody can tell it has been applied.
You simply dampen sponge or soft
brush with it and draw this through
the hair, taking one small strand at
time; by morning the gray hair has
disappeared, and after another applica--
ton it becomes beautifully dark and
appears glossy and 1ustruus.

AS NAKED AS EVE;
GIRL DEFlES COPS
YOUNG WOMAN WAS WRAPP-
ED IN SHEET AND TAKEN
TO COURT BY OFFICERS.

CHICAGO, I1l.-Miss Pearl Kirch-
err, wanted in court on a charge of
passing forged checks, did not beat
up the two staid, respectable, married
police sergeants who were sent to
bring her in. Instead she resorted to
the expedient of hastily stripping off
all her clothing.
"Now, go ahead and take me-" she
dehed them, as she tossed her dis
carded garments into closet, turned
the key and threw it out OF the win
dow. The officers called up the court
by telephone.
What to do, what to do!" they de-
manded.
This dame fops down on couch
and strips off everything. She's as
naked as an apple"
"a peach youse mean, corrected
his partner. Man have yese no eyes?"
WRAP her up in something and
bring her in," commanded the court.
So the valiant officers stripped the
bed of its sheets and blankets and
trussed up the highly indignant lady
and conveyed her to the court. The
case was continued to June 20, to per-
NIT a search for the missing closet
key and some clothes for Miss Kirch-
err.

Suddenly a door at the back of the
gallery was flung open and the Marquis de
senterre strobe in. Behind him, looking
like little dog that is afraid it is going
to be washed, was Sammy Richardson.
The eyes of the Marquis were blazing
with anger. He was about to speak when
suddenly Camille withdrew herself from
Audrey and turned to meet him.

and strained with agony, flushed family.

Then Miss Susie B. Yates and every one
else there had the sensation OF their lives.
Madame la Rose caught Audrey up by the
shoulder, tearing her frock as she did so,
and struck her two swinging blows upon
the face with her open palm.
The diva's eyes blazed black fire; her
red lips were open like a Grecan mask of

They stood trembling, these celebrated
people, as the voice dashed the covering
girl below.
Almost word by bitter burning word, they
were enabled to understand. The secret was
a secret no longer.
And what Camille la Rose poured out
upon the head of Audrey Bayne explained
it all. Within a minute tsey understood
that in Paris not long ago, desiring tc
show her power over a celebrated man she
loved, Camille had dared him to fight a
duel with one of the most famous duel
lists and DULLES in France. She had done
it lightly and in the spirit of romance.
Eyes, it was just in that way l did it,
/, Camille la Rose.'
She plucked Audrey Bayne up and held
her close, so that they were almost mouth
to mouth.
"And the man | loved was killed and my
voice, my voice went away and God pun

Camille caught Audrey to her and kissed
her upon the cheeks which she had so

"Her singing voice, absolutely, so l am

if she will ever sing again. Senterre told me

Colonel and then they were all three silent
until the car entered little forest of pines
and came out before the, facade of great
white house set in an amphitheatre of the
mountains.
Even to the thirty-odd people gathered
together in the Villa Turquoise that
night the scene was of exhilirating in
terest and beauty. They were all of them
celebrated, wealthy cosmopolitans, the cream
of the Riviera society at that moment, peo-
pie accustomed to every delicate refinement
of pleasure and people very easily bored by
everything except the fierce, undying excite
ment of the gaming tables. But there was
not trace of boredom in the eyes of the
most elderly, as the Marquis de Senterre
greeted his guests.
They were assembled in an atrium copied
from house at Pompeii-a marble hail
surrounded by pillars and with pool of
translucent water set in the middle of the
brilliant, tessellated floor. Concealed cleo
trio lights filled the stately, beautiful place
with a soft apricot radiance, and the air
was heavy with the scent of innumerable
tea-roses
The Marquis de Senterre, one of the
most picturesque figures in Europe, enter
tanned very little. There were hundreds of
people upon the Cote d'Azur who would
have given years income to have been
present upon an occasion like this. He
was a tall, upright man of nearly seventy,
though he looked little more than fifty.
His dead-white hair was still thick and waved
in natural ripples upon his head. The eyes
were very dark and brilliant. In repose
they had an expression of sadness, but at
all other times sparkled animation.

r TITLE SAMMY RICHARDSON stood
1 upon the terrace of the villa, high up
above Monte Carlo. By his side was
pretty Audrey Bayne-Audrey OF the cop
per-colored hair and melting violet eyes.
The sun was just sinking into the Medi-
terranean. In the distance Corsica lay like
faint purple haze on the horizon. For, far
below were the roofs of Monte Carlo, the
long white building of the Casino set in its
green gardens, and beyond, the great rock
of the Tete du Chen with the Royal Palace
and the cathedral. 1t was a scene Of in

Audrey shrugged her pretty shoulders.
Nothing in the world short of an earth
quake would have prevented her dining with
the celebrated Marquis de Senterre that
night. But she did not tell the faithful Sam
my this. Sammy had six thousand year
and was good little chap. He would make
an excellent husband if no one more desir-
able turned up. Meanwhile, he must be duly
snubbed and instilled with sense of his
own inferiority.
'You don't understand" she said with
another sigh, "but there, the life of romance
is over forever, suppose. At any rate, we
shall see it tonight in its last ana most
courtly survival"

There was a general hush in talk as Ca

lowered those in the arena below leaped up
in great illumination.
Then, with a delightful thrill, they all
saw the Marquis standing in the center of
the circus. In his hand was heavy leather
whip with loaded handle, and he looked
up and smiled at them all.

a rattle, it was pulled aside by an in

Then, up in the gallery, there was deep,

Audrey stared fascinated as the Marquis
smiled and cracked his whip. Camille la
Rose had left the piano and was standing
kissed his hand. Then he quietly lit
cigarette.
There was dead silence up in the
gallery. Suddenly it was cut into by

Soon; Lost his Evidence

When Thomas j. Sisto, who was
working for the federal prohibition
department, and had been gathering
evidence locally for the past two
weeks, decided he had procured
enough evidence and information and
proceeded to let everybody know who
he was, he evidently made the mistake
of his young life. Last Tuesday aft
ernoon, some time between three and
six O'Clock, his suitcase full of clothes,
evidence and credentials were taken
from his room in the Shaver hotel,
with the result that Mr.. Sisto was a
passenger to Cheyenne without all
that he thought he had. He was to
return later and take up the case, but
to date he has not shown up.-Sho-
