BRITISH WoMEN's FANCY
TURNS TO SILVERY HAIR

LONDON, Sept. 25.-According to
beauty experts here there has been
a rush lately by society women to
get their hair whitened and silvered
and this tendency. is by no means
confined to those approaching mid
die age.
The attractiveness Of tie idea
lies in the possession OF a youns
and lovely face beneath the silver.

The ship is believed to have been
fired upon by the old.time pirates
who operated out of Abescon lslana.
