CONDITION-Badly shaped eye brows.
 TREATMENT - First stimulate the growth by applying warm olive oil or white vaseline. Apply with a tiny brush. and then rub in ith the finger tips. To strengthen them, pull them between the fin gers, and shape them with the fin- gers. If they are conspicuously un- even and form a bad line, you can have the worst offending hairs plucked. and eventually those re- maining will form the line you de- sire. After powdering, brush the eyes and hrows. as nothing is more antagonistic to perfect grooming than powder laden brows and lashes.

Mrs. Prentiss sees lights mysteri- ously appear and disappear next door in the Heath household one night, and the next morning Harbor Gardens, Long Island is agog with the murder of Myra Heath and the disappearance of her husband, Per ry.
 House guests of the Heaths are Lawrence Inman and Bunny Moore. Inman is heir to Myra's considerab ble fortune, she having cut Perry off. Suspicion also points to golden hair ed, vivacious Bunny, because Of her refusal to answer questions at the in quest.
 Myra Heath was peculiar. She never used cosmetics, never wore colors, She had a mania for collect ing glass, and it was a rare old whisky bottle from her collection that the murderer used to kill her. Candles were burning at her head and feet and nearby was a card marked, "The Work of Perry Heath" Strangest of all, she was llNdNllS lltlut up anu ulSSStu WltH gay colors.
 The peculiar thing about Heath's disappearance is the fact that all windows and doors had been locked on the inside the night before and were found that way by the butler in the morning. Finger prints of Bunny Moore and Inman were found on the bottle and physicians estab- fish that the rouge was applied to
 Myra Heath after death. At the Country club the murder Is discussed by Sam Anderson, Heath's rivI for the club presidency; Al Cunningham, who is trying to solve the crime, and others. Some believe Heath the murderer Others, includ- ing Anderson, disagree. Cunningham learns from Mrs. Prentiss of the mysterious lights. Todhunter Buck her nephew, suggests that Heath also may have been murdered.
 Emma, a waitress in the Heath Home, tells Detective Mott of seeine Bunny Moore ascend the stairs after the murder, her vanity case in her hand.

RESPONSIBLE.

The New Jersey State Motor
Vehicle Inspectors, when they
make their annual visit to the Off
ces of the Magistrates i'll South
Jersey this year, will find that the
Squires have handled few motor
vehicle cases since the new law
went into effect reducing their
fees.
Once year the inspectors visit
the office Of each magistrate and
check up their dockets to see that
they have made the return to the
State of all fines collected
Under the new law 'Squires can
only collect So cents costs in each
case and few of them will handle
cases of this kind except when it
is really necessary.
Fewer arrests of automobile vio-
lators have been made the past
six months than in years. Most
OF the eases are now handled by
police recorders in each city or
borough The State will lose hun
dreds of dollars in fines this year.
This money goes into the State
road account because of the new

for driving while intoxicated will
help to make up for some of the

THE carelessness of owners in

damaged by machinery, but they
also may cause damage to the

Ocean City
Longport
Bridge Long Considered to
Be Hopeless Because of
Strong Current
Two Syndicates Ready

Two syndicates in New York
are after the privilege of bridg-
ing the Great Egg Harbor Bay
between Ocean City and Long
port. The current at this point
is very strong and in years past,
when the subject has been dis
cussed, it was considered hope
less job to attempt to span the
inlet either on pilings of by use
of one or more piers
The plan now is to use some of
the islands further up the bay in
the same way as islands We're
used when the bridge was built
between Ocean City and Somers
Point. This will require a curve
of the bridge with the extreme
northern end, connecting with the
bridge that now extends from
Longport TO Somers Point.
Such a bridge will bring At
lantic City within easy running
distance to Ocean City, and, as is
to be expected, there will be lines
of buses or an extension of the
present trolley line at Longport
to Ocean City. The effect will be
to give Ocean City many of the
advantages of her big sister re-
sort, including transportation
It is the intention to make the
bridge pay for itself by the col
lection of tolls. This was done
when the bridge to Ocean City
from Somers Point was built
Ultimately the State purchased
the structure as it is expected to
do in the case of the proposed
bridge. That traffic will be very
heavy is not questioned.
The bridge between Ocean City
and Somers Point was not built
without a fight, for at that time
the lower Cape May County re-
sorts were opposed to diverting
traffic through Ocean City and
wanted bridge from Somers
Point to Beasley's Point. so as
to have a straight line down the
coast. That there will ultimately
be such bridge is now looked
on as a surety.
The State Highway board real
ICES the great mistake that was
made when the White Horse Pike
was built in not locating it away
from the growing towns that it
passes through between Camden
and Berlin. Traffic is greatly re-
tarded in these towns and the
residents are often held up for
! long periods because of the con-
tinuous line of passing cars on
their main highway.

SPANKING SAVES BOYS LIFE.
Hearty Whacks Bring Wooden
Handled LolIypop From
Lads Throat.

An old-fashioned spanking, adj
ministered by a nurse in North
Hudson Hospital saved the life of
Harry Fredericks.
Harry was sucking lollypop
when the slippery CONNECTION skid
ded down his throat, wooden han
die and all. Rushed to the hos
pital in imminent danger of stran-
gulation, the nurse, without wait
ing for surgeons, turned Harry
over her knee and administered a
hot" application. A few hearty
whacks and the handle fell out of
the child's mouth while the Jolly
pop continued it's way.
