bridge across the Folohldc dI
sbepherdstown, a suggestion be-
ing made to dedicate it under the
name of the "Rumsey Memorial
bridge" it is interesting to note
that it is just little over a cen
turv and half since James Rum
sew gave public demonstration
of his steam craft on the Potomac
near the site of the bridge.
It was on December 3, 1857, that
Rumsey made this test, which
was measurably successful.
early in 1874 according to an
annual report of The Smithsonian
Institute, Rumsey wrote Washing
ton that he had perfected an idea
for mechanically propelling boats
upstream and invited Washington
to stop over at Bath (now Berke-
lev Springs). This model, he
showed Washington on September
&. 1884 In September, 1887, Rum
sey'boat moved by the force of
steam against the river current
with a speed Of about two miles
ner hour. John Fitch seems to
have been a close competitor of
Rumsey, as Fitch, according to
the report, about the same time
successfully demonstrated his In
dian paddle steamboat at Phila-
delphia. The Smithsonian report
saws: "While priority seems to
belong indisputably to Fitch, Rum
sey deserves credit for an inde-
pendent and almost simultaneous
invention"
Rumsey's invention revolved
about pumping a stream of water
under pressure, out through the
stern of the boat, below the water
line. the reactive force resulting
causing the boat to move forward.
The boiler, cylinder and pump
were all in the forward part of the
boat.
Rumsey was a Marylander born
at Bohemia Manor, Cecil County.
He served in the Revolutionary
War. With a partner, Joseph
Barnes, he conducted a store at
Berkeley Springs. Barnes, as a
carpenter, helped Rumsey in the
work of constructing the steam
boat, the work being done with
considerable secrecy. When the
boat was completed, Barnes was
sent to Baltimore and tFrederics-
town" to have the steam cylinder,
boiler and other machine parts
cast and made.
Rumsey went to England in
the interest of his invention and
died there in his forties. His
burial place is not definitely
known.

Globe, dated May 80, 1903,

his store open on Sundays. Peo-

terrible rush and hurry and men

California Youngster Puts If All Over Tommy
 Farr for Decision

NEW YORK, Dec. 17.-Lou Nova, from California, as capable young ster who ever stepped into the squared circle, catapulted himself into the forefront of the heavy weight fight picture last night by a thrilling fifteen-round decision over Tommy Farr, Britisher, before q bowling, hysteric crowd Of more than 10000 fight spectators.
 Nova came back late in the ses- sion, after seemingly all in, to punch Tommy nearly into unconsciousness in a wild fourteenth round and then went on to victory in the fifteenth round
 There were no official knock downs but it seemed in the four teenth that Farr was on the way down aud out.
 Although his own left eye was gashed and arms heavy, Nova threw a succession of right and left hand shots to the head and face of Tom my, who was badly hurt. Nova belt ed Farr all over the ring, pounding him unmercifully and how Farr re- .nained standing no one will ever

Beauty For Sale
Number 13

Shop girls, housewives, stenographers, and society butterflies, all know how to make themselves attractive and how to do 1t with in their budgets too. They learned how through advertising and by experience. The combined advertising of cosmetic manufac- turers presents a broad education in beauty culture. American women are consequently more critical and better informed about beauty accessories than about almost any thing else they buy.
 In this country the beauty business is large-sized industry, because here, more than anywhere else women of all classes use it's products and facilities. There are 10000 beauty parlors in the United States, doing business of $200,000 000 year. In addition our women buy $500 100000 worth of cos metics annually for home use. This makes half a billion dollars spent annually for beauty shops and cosmetics, an industry that gives employment to about 100000 persons
 As the advertisements say, no one needs to be unattractive any more. With reasonable skill and judgment in using advertised mate rials, every woman can enhance her natural charm. And the services of beauty shops are Cleopatra would probably have given good part of her kingdom for the cosmetics and services which the chic little stenographer buys for dollar week.
 This is an achievement of modern business. By the liberal use of advertising it has built another great industry, and has placed beauty aids of all kinds within the reach of every purse. Advertising works that way It brings untold benefits to consumers and ere ates greater employment and prosperity.

CT 1eopatra a was resourcetul woman. Armed with little more than the lure of fem mine charms, she was match for powerful warriors and cunning statesmen, including even the redoubtable Caesar and Mare An thony. To Cleopatra, beauty was the source of strength To Egypt, Cleopatra's long hours of toilet preparation were more vital than the training of her armies.
 Authentic records reveal some of the ln- timate details of Cleopatra's technique. She rouged her lips, powdered her face, and used many kinds of cosmetics on her skin, eye brows, hair, and finger nails. It was said that Cleopatra's beauty routine required many hours of her time every day. To manufacture the materials must have taken a fortune, as many of the ingredients were very costly.
 Cleopatra was not the originator of the cosmetics business however. Since hundreds of years before her time, women of high posi- tion had spent much time and wealth in beau tifying their persons. Clay tablets recently excavated by archaeologists in the Near East tell us all about it. In those days, a woman had to be very rich to afford the use of beauty preparations.
 Today, fifty million American women inn prove their appearance through beauty cul- ture and the aid of cosmetics. Their tech nique and their materials are so good that visitors from foreign countries often express amazement at the beauty of American wom- en- What captivates the visitor is not really so much the exceptional beauty of few, but rather the universal attractiveness of Amerl- can women in all walks of life.

When he reached the count of ?, the bell rang and Farr's handlers got him on his feet, pulled him to his corner for the final round which was almost as bad as the fourteenth and Nova was given the decision.
