The purpose of | J|HIS busy, progressive nation is today at i the dawn of a new era of commercial and social development. The means by which the human voice, with its slightest inflections and indications of personality. carried across the continent instantly, have been provided. Talking by telephone from New York to San Francisco is now an accom- plished fact. The celebration of this htest and greatest triumph in the art of telephony has just taken place. Within a short time the public will have, ready for its use, the product of American brains, American initiative and American scien- tific and technical skill, a transcontinental tele- phone service, the equal of which is not even approached in all the other nations of the world. It is a splendid scientific achievement of the very highest character. The power that sends the human voice out over the telephone is scarcely greater than that of a breath, yet the means have been provided by which this tiny, almost Ymaginary impulse, made up of as many as 2,000 separate vibrations a second, can be picked up by a delicate instrument, conserved over a dis- tance of 3,400 miles, and reproduced perfectly and instantly across the continent. The human voice has been made to travel as fast as light, faster than sound unaided by technical apparatus; indeed, it rivals THOUGHT even, in the swift- ness of its flight. The imagination can but feebly grasp, much less attempt to measure, the far-reaching signifi- cance of such a tremendous accomplishment. One hundred million people will have for their daily use a system of communication that knows ne East, no West, no North, no South. Dialects, provincialisms, sectional pre]udxces, must event- ually yield to the closer union, the better under- standing, the more intimate comradeship that the human voice establishes. The neighborliness of a whole nation is advanced by the Erusfimg ay of the physical restraints of centuries. This contribution to the future happiness and prosperity of a more closely united people has not been brought about, however, by the over- coming of a few isolated, concrete difficulties. Its success has depended upon the exercise of the highest engineering and technical skill and the solution was found only in the cumulative ef- fect of improvements great and small, in tele- phone, transmitter, line, cable, switchboard, and every other piece of apparatus or plant required in the transmission of speech. In this work the experimental and research department of the Bell System of which this Company is a part, has been engaged ever since the telephone became a commercial possibility, less than 40 years ago. With no traditions to follow and no experience to guide, this depart- ment, which is now directed by a staff of over 550 engineers and scientists, including former professors, post graduate students, scientific in- vestigators—the graduates of 140 universities— has created an emtirely new art—the art of tele- phony, and has given to the people of this coun- try a telephone service that has no equal. It has required vast expenditures of money and immense concentration of effort, but these have been justified by results of immeasurable benefit to the public. The transcontinental tele- phone line, 3,400 miles long, joining the Atlantic and Pacific, is part of the Bell System of 21,000,000 miles of wire connecting 9,000,000 telephone sta- tions, located everywhere throughout the United States. Composing this system are the American Telephone and Telegraph Company and As- sociated Companies and connecting companies, giving universal service to 100,000,000 pecople.

Just a few applications’ will prove a revelation if your hair is fading, gray or dry, scraggly and thin.

While wispy, gray, faded hair is | not sinful, we ail desire to retain our youthful appearance and attractive- ness. By darkening your hair with Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur, no ane can tell, because it does it so natural- ly, so evenly. You just dampen a gponge or soft brush with it and draw | this, through your hair, taking one | small strand at a time; by morning all gray hairs have disappeared. and after another application or twao your hair becomes beautifully dark, plossy, soft and luxuriant. er of Mrs. A. H. Bowman of West Main street, . died at her daughter's | | home early today after an illness of about twelve weeks, coincident with old age. Mrs. Cloney was ninety-two vears ago and up to the time of her last illness was considered a remark- ably well preserved woman. Her senses were all very acute and she was interested in literary works, read- ing a great deal. She also spent much time sewing. Mrs. Cloney was born on March 29, 1823, at Fitzwilliam, New Hampshire, but for the past two decades had made her home in this city. Before coming here she lived many vears at Manchester, Vermont, where she was a’ member of the Congregational church. One daughter and one son survive her, Mrs. A. H. Bowman, of this city, and A. B. Cloney of Winchendon, Mass. She also leaves four grand- | children, E. C., A. G. and A. W. Bow- man. Two great-grandchildren are living in the west. The funeral arran ements have ! heen compléted and services will be held tomorrow afternoon at 2 o'clock from her daughter’s home. Inter- ment will be in the family plot at Manchester, Vt. Rev. Harry 1. Bod- | ley will conduct the services in this | city.
