ASTDH’S SECRET SAFE IS DRILLED Experts Are Unable to Open Strong Box Combination i Died With Owner. NEW YORK June 12. The late Colonel John Jacob Astor possessed one safe of which he alone'knew the com bination. and therein, absolutely secure from Are and burglars, reposed such i secrets of affairs of forttine as he con cealed from every confidante. This strong box, said to have been of peculiar construction and involved |. mechanism, spherical in shape and ft hardened to the point of resistance even to electrical contact, had reposed for several years in the personal office • * of Colonel Amr /At the death of the tnllliotiaite his -✓executors and ills secretary set in older such affairs as they could place hands upon. Rut certain links were found to he missing, and in each instance the line of connection led up to and ceased abrupt!.' at the rounded doors of the fire and burglar-proof safe. Nobody hut Colonel Astor had ever known the combination of that re markable safe It was said that onlj one other had been made, and that was for the late "Al" Adams Surely enough a safe .similar to that possessed by Colonel Astor was sold a few months ago by the son of Adams at an auction. It brought $Wi. The son explained that he had not been able to open It be cause the combination died with his fa ther. The man who made the purchase •pent more than the purchase price to have the groat steel globe drilled into. It contained only worthless paper. Having this in mind, the Astor ex excutors thought to save the safe from destruction and sent for a safe expert. Rut this safe was made to tease Just such experts When Colonel Astor closed the door he not only turned the knob which obliterated the releasing combination, but he also twirled the en tire door about Just as easily. And there was then left to the Imagination the grandest mlxup outside of the Chi nese alphabet Aided by the eager executors and trustees and confidential men of the Astor menage, the great expert toiled and perspired and fretted over that ephericai Sphinx Finally, confessing that he had been baffled, the great expert withdrew, and theri came the steel drill men. The electrical connections that hud been lilted to meit ihe huge globe failed to show any effect upon the polished sur face. Theie is .( newer system, how ever. involving aver, cue gas And by use of this contact, interspersed with clever manipulation of cold steel. Chisels and tiles of noted temper, the great hail of resistance finally was pierceo Now ss to what secrets this gic.i E safe revealed oil, hat is another .-'or,' that even the final reports of the ex ecutors ma\ not reveal.

"Dull and lifeless hair makes a woman look older than she should. Dry sham pooing makes ihe hair bright, fluffy and clean full of life and lustre. Put four ounces of powdered orris root in a fruit jar and mix it well with an original pack age of therox. Sprinkle a teaapoonful of the mixture on the head once a week and brush it out thoroughly. Therox makes hair grow when everything else falls "The natural beauty of a person s fare is marred by thin and straggly eyebrows and lashes. Rubbing gentlj with plain pyroxin will induce them to grow long, thick and silks The eyebrows should be brushed daily to train them to grow into an arch "Instead of powder and paint, use a simple complexion lotion made at home by dissolving an original package of mayatone in a half pint of witch hazel. Gently rub over the face in the. morning and all day your skin will be as clear, soft and satiny as a baby's with no dark or muddy discolorations "Delatone is equal to the electric needle fur the removal of superfluous hair, is positively painless, and nut nearly so ex pensive. Just mix a little delatone with water; cover the wild hairs with this paste, let it remain two minutes: then wash the skin, and the hairs will be gone ’twenty-five secure PHARMACY LICENSES FROM GEORGIA BOARD SAVANNAH, GA..

DOCTORS CONDEMN SO-CALLED SUPERFLOODS HAIR “ CURES" While there may be no perceptible harm noticeable with the first few ap plications of the numerous so-called superfluous hair ‘‘cures" other than causing slight skin troubles and an in creased growth, real danger and disfig urement lurk in their frequent use. which, if continued, will produce ecze ma or other serious skin diseases Furthermore, after each removal, the hair grows out again more rapidly, < oarser and stiffer than before and eventually It will become so coarse that no preparation will be strong enough to remove it without ruining the skin. It is surprising that these unknown and uncertain means should be em ployed when there is such a reliable and trustworthy preparation as De- Miracle, the only absolutely non-pois onous depilatory that dissolves hair, thereby taking the vitality out of it, consequently retarding and preventing an increased growth. Beware of the imitator who resorts to copying certain phrases of the De- Miracle advertising to inveigle you into using a worthless, poisonous concoc tion. When ‘a faker tries to deceive and delude you by alluring and im possible claims, tell him that DeMiracle chemical Company will forfeit Five Thousand Dollars if it can be proven that any so-called superfluous hair "cure” ever eradicated one single growth of superfluous hair. Insist on proof when a claim is made that such a preparation is "indorsed by the medi cal profession.” DeMiracle is the only depilatory that has ever been indorsed by reputable Use Georgian Want Ads Bargain Gems From the Jewelry Department INITIAL SCRIPT PIN LINKS AND TIE CLASP SETS.
