WITH BRITISH CRUISERS. Possible Some Rescues May Yet Be Heard From. Lowestoft, Sept. 23, by way of Lon- don, 7:256 p. m—So far as can be as= certained 1,067 officers and men were saved out of a total of 2,200 who were on board . the three Britishr cruisers when they were sunk by a German submarine yesterday. A trgwler arrived here today with 34 urvivers, including two officers. As far as be determined the three ships— ted and within the last few days only about one third of the Londdn Street lights have been turned on. Lights are few and far between on the docks and bridges across the Thames.

P It is possible that other Lowestoft fishing trawlers have made further rescues. The trawler, which arrived here today, saw the three cruisers sink and rescued 350 men, who, with the exception of 34, were transferred to warships. The captain of the trawler says that the first cruiser attacked sank in three minutes, the second in serious illness.

WHY MODERN WoMEN'S HAIR IS GETTING TH:N--By Mdm. Beaupre ‘Wigs, switches, curling tongs, arti- ficial waving, singeing, etc.,"have com- bined to ruin the hair of many ‘women, so there is decidedly an in- crease in baldness. But proper care will develop heavy, beautiful hair upon’ any head. Ia the hair do not use a makeshift which may remove more than the excess oil, leaving the hair dangerousiy dry, but use something which is made for shampooing only. A perfectly safe, economical, invigorating shampoo, that makes the hair so fluffy it seems much beavier than it is, can be had by dissolving a teaspoonful canthrox, which every s, in a cup hot water. s mixture cleanses ntly, yet thoroughly, removing all landruff, excess oil and dirt, siving to the scalp and hair the vigor that insures scalp-health and hair-beauty. - SCHWARTZ BROS. 9-i1 Water Street Norwich, Conn. Canthrox shampoos make the head feel good, make the hair look good, are very beneflcial where hair is faded, dull or brittle, and the regular use of canthrox will greatly enrich the color of the hair and give a beau- tiful gloss and softness. A charming street dress was devel- oped in peacock crepe meteor, basque model], and had the fashionable long sleeves. Its smart girdle was rich- beaded. The low neck was finished ith whjte net over lace, and there was a graceful sash. Speaking of sleeves, this season’s rule appears tp be long sleeves for morning, elbow sleeves for afternoon merely a strap on with a wide sash The New Waists.
