Here’s a simple recipe that anybody can apply with a hair brush. The use of Sage and Sulphur for re- storing faded, gray hair to its natural color dates back to grandmother’s time. She used it to keep her hair beautifully dark, glossy and attrac- tive. Whenever her hair took on that dull, faded or streaked appearance, this simple mixture was applied with wonderful effect. But brewing at home is mussy and sut-of-date. Nowadays, by asking at any drug store for a bottle of “Wyeth's Bage and Sulphur Compound,” you will get this famous old preparation, improved by the addition of other in- gredients, which can be depended up- on to restore natural color and beauty to the hair. A well-known downtown druggist says it darkens the hair so naturally and evenly that nobody can tell it has been applied. You simply dampen a sponge or soft brush with it and draw this through vyour hair, taking one strand at a time. By morning the gray hair disappears, and after an- pther application or two, it becomes beautifully. dark and glossy. Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Com- pound is a delightful toilet requisite tor those who desire a more youthful yppearance. the cure, mitigation or prevention of disease. 0 CEDAR STREET. 4 Medical, Surgical and Obstetric Patlents.

FAVORITE NIECE GETS ALLOWANCE But When She Is Forty, She Will Receive $5,000,000 New York, Oct. 25.—~The will of Mrs. Lily Flagler Bingham, widow of Henry M. Flagler and at the time of her death on July 27 at Jefferson City, Ky., the wife of Robert W. Bingham of Louisville, was flled in the surro- gate's office here yesterday. It dis- closed many bequests not made known at the time the will was offered for probate at Palm Beach, Fla., and at Louisville, Under the will Mrs. Bingham’s niece, Mrs. Louise Wise Lewis, who was said to be the chief legatee under the will disposing of about $70,000,- 000, receives only an income of $200,- 000 a year until she is 40 years old, and then gets $5,000,000 outright. She also reecives all of Mrs. Bingham's realty except that disposed of in trust provisions under the will of Henry M. Flagler, but her share is far exceeded by that left to Mrs. Bingham’'s brother, Willlam R. Ke- nan, and sisters, Mrs. Jessie Kenan Wise and Sarah Graham Kenan, who get the residuary estate, including Mrs. Bingham’s Standard Oil stocks. The Louisville Trust company is seeking ancillary letters of adminis- tration here which will permit it to take possession of property in this state declared to be worth $1,600,- 000. The Fidelity and Columbia Trust company did not join in the ap- plication, and citations were issued to that company. That Mrs. Bingham owned Standard Oil stocks worth $16,094,350 at current quotations is shown by the list of holdings append- ed to the will. The will also shows that a bequest made by Mrs. Bingham to the Uni- versity of North Carolina is mot $75,000, but $75,000 a year, to estab- lish professorships. Other public bequests are $10,000 each to the Flag- ler hospital, St. Augustine, Fla., and the Memorial Presbyterian church at St. Augustine, and $10,000 to the Pres- byterian church at Miami Fla. Mrs. Bingham left to her ‘“pastor and friend,” Rev. Dr. George Morgan Ward, $25,000, and an equal amount to William H. Beardsley of New York, president of the Florida East Coast railway. g % The managers of the hotels left to Mrs. Bingham by her husband, in- cluding the Ponce de Leon, Alcazar, Ormond Beach, Royal Poinciana, in Florida, and the Colonial Hotel at Nassau, Bahamas, each receives $10,- 000. . AR EW BRITAIN DAILY GERMANS BREAK THROUGH LINES Berlin Announcement Tells of Success at Three Points Berlin, Oct. 26.—An Austro-German offensive has been instituted on the Itallan front, Army Headquarters an- nounced yesterday. German and Aus- trian infantry this morning captured the foremost Italian positions near Flitsch and Tolmino and in the north- ern portion of the Bainsizza Plateau. The official statement of the War Office includes this reference to the Itallan front: The fighting activity has been per- ceptibly revived in the Tyrroltan, Carnia, and Isonzo regions. German artillery took part in the artillery bat- tle, and German and Austro-Hunga- rian infantrymen this morning cap- tured the foremost Italian positions near Flitsch and Tolmino and in the northern portion of the Bainsizza Plateau. Last night’s official bulletin these details: On the Italian front the combined attacking operations are taking their intended course. Up_4+% the present some thousands of prisoners have been reported. adds Rome, Oct. 25.—That the Austrians have concentrated strong forces on the Italian front for offensive purposes was announced by army headquarters yesterday. A large proportion of these troops are Germans and the war material employed is likewise largely of German origin. The War Office reads: The enemy hasg concentrated’strong forces on our front for offensive pur- poses. A large proportion of these troops and material are German. How- ever, the blow of the enemy will find us steady and prepared. During the night the increased in- tensity of the artillery fire on various portions of the Julian front and a heavy bombardment, mostly with spe- cial gas shells, between Rombon and the northern portions of the' Bainsiz- za Plateau, marked the beginning of an attack. Owing to the bad weather, however, the hostile fire decreased toward dawn, together with violent bursts of fire from our batteries. GERMANS HAD PLANS Sympathizers at Oesel and Moon Island Gave Them Information ‘Which Helped Them Materially. announcement Mrs. Bingham made her will Sept. 23, 1916, before her marriage to Robert W. Bingham, so she attached to the will a document dated Dec. 8 last, stating that she was abgut to marry Robert Worth Bingham, and had been informed that because of that fact it was necessary for her to re-declare her Intentions. She made the codicil leaving $5,000,000 to Mr. Bingham on June 19 last, five weeks before her death. IN JERUSALEM DURING WAR Miss Mary Butterfield Missionary in Holy Land, Speaks at Convention at People’s Church. At the People’s church, Court street, the semi-annual Missionary and Bible convention opened a two days’ session yesterday morning, and a good attendance greeted the speak- ers throughout the day in spite of the great storm. In the evening the house was fortably filled to listen to the two stirring addresses. Miss Mary But- terfleld from Jerusalem gave a most vivid account of three years as a missionary in Jerusalem in war time. She, with two other women, have made a most heroic stand to hold open the great mission after all the men workers were driven out about Christmas time, 1914. Her account of the sufferings and hardships of the people was heart-rending. She is doing considerable speaking for the national committee of The Armenian and Syrian Relief work, and spoke again this afternoon at 2:16. Oliver R. Heinze of Philadelphia, spoke upon “The Victorious Life,"” and created a deep interest. He speaks again this evening on the same sub- ject. The other speaker this even- ing is Rev. R. C. Steinhoff, on “The Lord’s Return.” Large gatherings are the order todey, with interesting speakers and topics. Fred W. Krieg- er was the chief missionary speaker vesterday afternoon, and Mr. and Mrs, Charles R. Atwood speak today. 3 The program for tonight follows: 6:00 p. m. supper served; 7:00 p. m., praise service led by choir; 7:30 p. m. address, Brother Steinhoft, “The Lord’s Return; 8:15 p. m., ad- dress, Brother Heinze, “The Victor- com- It is not intended for ious Life”; 9:00 p. m., closing exer- cises. PETER CARLSON'S ESTATE. The estate of Peter Carlson has been' inventoried for the court.of pro- bate at $850. It consists of insurance in the Billard Machine Tool Co., Bridgeport, $600; insurance in the Or- der of Vasa, $100; insurance in the 0dd Fellows, $50, and insurance in the Locomobile Relief association, Bridgeport, $100, The estate was appraised by Malcolm Anderson, ‘WILD OF MRS. GEETLEY. The will of Mrs. Josephine Geet- ley was filed in the court of probate today. She bequeathes a burial plot in St. Mary’s new cemetery to a daughter, Theresa Finance, and the residue is distributed among her three daughters, Mrs. Finance, Mrs. Minnle Lumpp and Mrs. Anna G. Gattung. Herman Lumpp is appointed executor without bond. Petrograd, Oct. 25.—How the Ger- mans were aided in the capture of Oesel and Moon Islands in the Gulf of Riga by sympathizers is told by M. Vishnevsky, a commissioner sent to observe conditions there and who escaped in an open boat after the oc- cupation. He described the heroic ef- forts made by the officers to rally their men and asserts that several of them, including Gen. Martinoff, com- mander of the garrison, committed sulcide when the troops surrendered.' That the Germans had knowledge of conditions on the islands is indicated by the fact that when Aviator Safonov brought down a German hydro air- plane, the dead occupant was found to have complete plans not only of existing but of proposed fortifications. On the plans places were marked for bombing. Gen. Martinoff’s scouts fre- quently observed lanterns flashing from the shore and upon investigation found a deserted cabin with a ladder leading to the roof. removed but later were replaced by a mysterious hand. In an effort to stem the surrepder of large bodies of troops, Vishnevsky and others pretended to be sending signals to Russian ships bringing help. Instructions were issued by soldiers’ committees he says, that those wish- ing to surrender should gather under | white flags. Commander Shisko, of the Reval battalion of death, it is re- lated handed his sword to a soldier, saying: “I never will return home. Those who can may save themselves or die as I,” whereupon he shot himself. The Germans gave two hours in which to surrender. The majority of the gar- rison gave up their arms within this B Squares of can- | vas found lying on the ground were | WILL SEND COAL 10 NEEDY STATES Ohio and Michigan Will Get Ther Entire Outpnt Monday ‘Washington, Oct. 25.—The entire output of coal in the Ohio, Western Pennsylvania, and Michigan districts next Monday will be requisitioned by the United States government and distributed for domestic consumption in sections of '‘Ohio and Michigan, where there has been a severe short- age. Large deliveries will not be per- mitted and retailers will be requsted to put in orders only for amounts ac- tually necessary. They must prom- ise, also, before receiving any part of the requisitioned coal, to deliver it in | one-ton consignments to families which have no coal. The Lever food control law gives | the Fuel Administrator absolute pow- ers by the exercise of which he may take over output, or even the miles, if a crisis is faced. The step which Dr. Garfleld contemplates next Mon- day will be in the nature of an ex- periment. If it proves successful the same program will be applied to other districts, such as New York, if a coal famine is threatened. All of the coal in the Ohlo, Western Pennsylvania, and Michigan flelds on Monday will be distributed among do- mestic consumers, regardless of con- tracts which may have been entered into for delivery to other points. These contracts will be filled later, when the acute condition is ended. Opera- tors also will be directed to supply retailers whether contomers in the past or not, and retailers must sell only to persons who have no stock of coal on hand. Dr. Garfleld said he would assure all localities that they would receive coal to meet their needs, and that each section would be considered in the light of the special circumstances affecting it. He said the entire car supply available would be employed to move the coal to the Ohio and Michigan consumers on the day set aside. Homer Johnson, the Ohio fuel ad- ministrator, sent telegrams last night to local committees in his state in- structing them to have the retail deal- ers put in their orders at-once to their usual source of supply or to the nearest coal fleld. They must order only what they can deliver rapidly in one-ton loads. The operators also were informed of the government’s in- tention to take over their output for one day and they were asked to facili- tate deliveries. Mr. Johnson met Dr. Garfield at the recent conference of operators in Pittsburgh and proposed the plan. Dr. Garfield, who already had decided to requisition 10 per cent. of the coal output of the country, agreed. Under a definite allotment of Amer- jcan coal for trade, announced tonight by the fuel administration, about 2,- 000:000 tons of bituminous or anthra- cite will be permitted to move across the Canadian border during the next two months. The allotments, which will materially reduce the volume of exports, were arranged in consulta- tion with the 'Canadian authorities Annual October Sale of Notions and Household Supplies THREE DAYS, THURSDAY, FRIDAY AND SATURDAY EXCEPT A FEW RESTRICTED ARTICLES REDUCED EVERYTHING This Annual Event right now is a welcome opportunity for everyone who has & home to save Everything except a fow restricted articles reduced and some extra-big specials.

Buy Today at Any Bank—Cash or Installments LIBERTY LOAN COMMITTEE OF NEW ENGLAND. every State celebrated the day by making subscriptions to the Liberty Loan. The Nation's total for the day was more than $500,000,000. Returns, scattering and incomplete last night, indicated that $750,000,000 would be closer to the actual figures. Liberty Loan Committees in all twelve Federal Reserve banking dis- tricts were overwhelmed with the mass of subscriptions which poured in. It was impossible for them to tab- ulate the sums offered. From the most reliable figures available, the country, it was esti- mated, has subscribed between $3,- 150,000,000 and $3,300,000,000 of the $5,000,000,000 that must be raised before the books close day after to- morrow. It is impossible to give clos- er figures. Some observers thught last night the actual total would prove to be higher. On the basis of incomplete reports from the reserve districts the total is $3,011,000,000—admittedly below the true figures. The Treasury Depart- ment in Washington estimated early in the afternoon that a total had then been reached of $2,750,000,000 and that the $3,000,000,000 mark was in sight for the end of the day. It made no estimate last night. The race among the districtsgtight- ened as a result of the day.™ The standing of the districts on the basis of the percentage of the amount sub- scribed to the amount allotted is: Chicago .. . 68.567 per cent. Richmonad .... . 67.50 per cent. Philadelphia . . 66.99 per cent. St. Louis . . 65 per cent. New York . per cent. San Francisco . per cent. Kansas City . per cent. Minneapolis . per cent. Boston .. per cent. Cleveland per cent. Dallas . . . per cent. Atlanta ..... .. 22.66 per cent. The figures fail to indicate the great response made yesterday to the Pres- jdent’s call. It came from every part of the Nation. Telegrams received by the Liberty Loan Committee here from committees in other districts and from sub-committees brought nothing but cheer. GREAT COMBINATION WILL BE FORMED To Protect Interest of Capital Adjust Relations Between Employer and Employc. London, Oct. 25.—Concurrently with the un-official announcement last night employers would form a great combination for the purpose of pro- tecting the interest of capital and in an endeavor to adjust the relations and | between employers and employes, the government issued a statement to the effect that it adopted as part of its policy of industrial re-construction the recommendations of the special com- mittee which reported last June. ' The committee advised the establishment of industrial councils representing the trade unions and employers’ associa- tions in each industry. The councils will deal, among other things, with the means for securing for the workmen a greater share in controlling the conditions of labor, with a re-adjustment of wages so that the workers will obtain a share in the increased prosperity of industry, the establishment of regular methods of | settling difterences and other means of insuring closer co-operation be- tween employers and employes with a view to attaining better conditions of employment and a higher standard of comfort for the workers. The statement says a large number of employers’ organizations and trade unions have expressed their approval of the scheme. NAVY TAKES OVER ARMY TRANSPORTS Bluejackets Will Hereaiter Com- mand Them More Efficiently Washington, Oct. 25.—Bluejackets will man and naval officers will Com- mand army transports hereafter, Of- ficlals believe this will insure more efficlent operation of the ships, para ticularly in the war zone, where the strains on a crew is greatest, and so lessen the risk of destruction by sub~ marines. The decision to have the navy oper- ate the transports, announced yester- day, is believed to have been hastened by the sinking of the transport An- tilles, which was manned by civilians. The highly trained and disciplined naval officers are regarded as far more effective than a constantly changing civilian personnel. This is regarded as particularly true of the fireroom force, upon which a ship’s speed largely depends. The manning of the transports will make necessary a larger Increase in the naval personnel, and the general board is understood to have recom- mended that congress be asked in De- cember to authorize an additional 80,000 men, 30,000 for the permanent naval forces and 60,000 for the period of the war. With the transports turned over to the navy, it was decided to have the shipping board operate all cargo ves- sels, including those carrying supplies for the armed forces abroad. Thus was settled a question between the navy and the shipping board wNch began with the decision to build and commeandeer merchant ships. In anticipation of today’'s agree- ment, the navy has been training | men especially for the transport serv- ice, and a large force is understood to be available now. Others will be trained as rapidly as possible so that not only all existing transports can | be manned but also the new ones now | building. These latter have been es- | pecially designed and will be much faster than the standard cargo ves- sels. They are built for a speed of at least 18 knots.
