10 " NORWICH BULLETIN, THURSDA DECEMBER 9, 1915 g LADIES ! SECRET TO DARKEN GRAY HAIR || Bring back color, gloss and thickness with Grandma's recipe of Sa and Sulphur. Common garden sage brewed into a heavy tea, with sulphur and alcohol added, will turn gray, streaked and faded hair beautifully dark and lux- ! uriant; remove every bit of dandruff, | recipe at home, stop scalp itching and falling hair. Mixing the Sage Tea and Sulphur though, is trouble- some. An easier way is to get the ready-to-use tonic, costing about 50 cents a large bottle, at drug _stores. known as ‘Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Compound,” thus avoiding a lot of muss. While wispy, gray, faded hair is not sinful, we ali desire to retain our youthful appearance and attractive- ness. By_darkening your hair with Wyeth’s Sage and Sulphur, no one can tell, because it does it so natur- ally, so evenly. You just dampen a sponge 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. After another application or two your hair becomes beautifully dark, glossy, soft and luxuriant, and you appear years younger.

Tokio, Dec. §,—A good deal of in- terest attaches here to the visit of a prominert Russian, Wassile de Den- isow, merchant and member of the Duma, who came to establish closer relations between Russia and Japan and at the same time to further the talked alliance between the two coun- tries. He is now meeting representa- tive Japancse. “An alliance should be c tween Japan and Russia, Denisow in an interview. He himself, he continued, headed the movement for that purpose. In 1913, when he returned home from his extensive tour in the Far East, nhe published a pamphlet entitled “Rus- sia_in the Orient” in which he said it would be madness for Russia and Japan to begin another dispute, at the same time emphasizing that it is in- cumbent upon Russia to approach the island country with overtures for an zllianc In the course of the war, however, relations between the two countrics have been drawn remarka- bly closer and are now nothing short of an alliance in all but name, while their commercial bonds are bound to be tinged witk a political character. It is his_firm ccnviction, shared, he said, by Baron Motono, Jananese am- bassador in Petrograd, that an alli- ance between the two countries is cer- tain to be realized in the not dis- tant future. luded be- saia r.

BEST LAXATIVE FOR MEN, WOMEN AND CHILDREN. Enjoy life! Remove the liver and bowel poison which is keeping your head dizzy, your tongue coated, breath offensive, and stomach sour. Don't stay bilious, sick headachy, constipa- ted and full of cold. Why don’t you get a box of Cascarets from the drug store and eat one or two tonight and enjoy the nicest, gentlest liver and bowel cleansing you ever experienced. You will wake up feeling fit and fine. Cascarets never gripe or sicken like galts, pills and calomel. They act so gently that you hardly realize you have taken a cathartic. Mothers should give cross, sick, bilious or fev- erish children a whole Cascaret any time—they act thoroughly and are iparmiess. DANIELSON President Frink Unable to Speak at Wodosfbck—Paul N.

There was unusual interest in Dan- ielson and Brooklyn Wednesday in the cable announcement from Rome that the Standard Oil company's tanker Communipaw had been sent to the bottom off Tobruk, Tripoli, in the Med- iterranean by a submarine of unknown nationality. = This ship, formerly the Deutchland, sailing from Hamburg, had as one of its officers when it left New York for Egypt October 27, tain Hugh L. Mason of Brookly: was L Tt understood among Captain Ma- son’s acquaintances here when he left to go into the oil tanker service a few weeks ago that he was to have command of a vessel, as he has had for vears in the past in the Pacific trade and other parts of the world. Wednesday morning’s papers gave Captain Norstrand as the vessel's commander, however. Mrs. on_was greatly distressed when she learned of the reported sinking of the Communipaw. = Mrs. Mason was in New York when the vessel sailed on its last trip and saw her husband off in command as cap- tain. Whether by reason of illness or through transfer or other cause Captain Mason was relieved of the command of the Communipaw while the ship was being held by the Italian government at Genoa, from which port it was released December 2 and pro- ceeded for Egypt, or whether the com- mand was changed after the arrival of the vessel at Alexandria, its fort of destination, or whether he’is still in command and the name of the com- manding officer erroneously sent over the cables, are points that had not been cleared up here Wednesday. A reassuring message—at least taken as such here—came over the cables to the Associated Press Wednesday morning stating that the Communi- paw had arrived at Alexandria last Sunday and had safled Tuesday from that port for New York. This raises the hope that the vessel referred to as the Communipaw may have been another ship and this belief was strengthened by cables in the evening editions of Wednesday. Mrs. Mason last heard from Captain Mason at Alglers and at that time he sald nothing about being transe ferred to another ship. Deep River—Miss Bertha Denison, secretary of the local Hqual Fran- chise league, has received from the State Woman's Suffrage association, a traveling library of 16 volumes and some additional pamphlets. 1 PUTNAM Woodstock Agrioultural Society Holds Annual Meeting and Poultry Show —Seven Bids For Trade Sohool Submitted — Firemen Deny Charge of Joy Riding—Grand High Pr Parsons to Visit Putnam Chapter.

Only the income trom these funds are used. In connection with the annual meet- ing there was a poultry shok, as is the annual custom, and this yesr's exhibition was one of the finest that has been held, having a large num- ber of fine entries. The birds were judged by Professor Card, who has been interested in the egg laying con test at the Connecticut Agricultur: college. Professor Card also a dressed those who attended the an- nual meeting, speaking relative to special features of the poultry busi- ness. Another speaker was ‘Walter P. Boss, president of the Worcester County Agricultural soclety, his sub- ject being Improvements in County Fairs. President M. J.

Of Seven Submitted to New Trade School Committee. A meeting of the special commitee of the town on the Trad6 School was held Wednesday afternoon in the rooms of the Chamber of Commerce for the purpose of receiving bids for the cont for the construction of the building, these blds received in response to tke change in specifica- tions made after the original set of bids were received here a few days ago. Late in the afternoon Chester E. Child of the committee said_that the contract” would not be let Wed- nesday. He sald that seven blds for the general contract had come in and of the bidders that the Webster Lumber and Supply company of Webster, Mass. was the lowest. Of the nine persons or firms that filed bids for the heating and plumbing contracts W. F. Rafferty’s of this city was the lowest. Later it was decid- ed to make certain changes in the specifications for the general contract and ask for bids to be opened in the Chamber of Commerce rooms Friday afternoon of this week at 3.30. No Joy-Riding By Firemen. And now with the bienninl ci election out of the way comes an a peal from members of the fire de- partment that what they describe as a campaign canard be nailed as ma- licious and intended to reflect on them. The vard that has aroused the ire of some of them is that th have been in the habit of taking the auto chemical truck that is the prop. erty of the city out as a convevance to ‘transport them to the camp that they had on the north shore of Al- exander's lake during the summer ang early fall season. Mayor Mac- donald endorses the statement of the fire department members that are protecting against a story that they figure was intended ns a reflectton upon them that have never upon any occasion taken the truck to the lake, They are emphatic in declaring that the “truck has never been taken out for a pleasure trip: that it has been nsed only under the direction of the city officials and in a proper manner. here has been no joy riding and no a of indulging in such an absurity with the city’s fire fighting apparatus. City Engineer Critised. Intense ~ interest _was aroused throughout the city Wednesday by ‘he criticism of City Engineer George Perry made by Mayor Archibald Mac- donald at the regular meeting of the common courcil Tuesday evening. The mavor's caustic arraignment of the city engineer caused a mild sensation to say the least and comes as an in- teresting aftermath to this week's city election. Helped Carry Suffrage Scroll. Mrs. W. J. Brtlett, who has been in Washington this week as a mem- ber of the Connecticut delegation that Joined with the delegations of nu- merous other states and was among those received by President Wilson on Monday afternoon, describes the ex- Deriences of the day as combining to make the event of her life. Mrs. Bartlett and Miss Katherine Flannt- gan of Hartford were the Connecticut delegates who helped carry the giant scroll for presentation to the presi- dent, this scholl bearing the signa- tures of hundreds of thousands of men and women resident in many states. In a half page picture appear- ing in a Washington evening paper of Monday Mrs. Bartlett may be seen among a group of women ascending the steps of the national capitol to be recelved by the president. Choir Researsa St. Philip’s church choir will re- hearse on Friday evening at _eight o’clock at the home of P. H. Myers, 16 Florence street. Woman Found Collecting Funds. Warning has been received that a ‘woman is soliciting funds in various Connecticut cities fraudulently. She is apt to represent herself as working for some local charity at first; but ‘when this pretense is exposed, she will claim to be helping a_day nursery in Brooklyn, New York. The authori- tles there say that there is such an institution in existence, but that they do not approve its methods. They al- low a large number of persons to so- licit money for them and to keep al- most all of it themselves, turning oyer to the Brooklyn institution just enough to make it hard to prove » case against them in court. The woman who is working Con- necticut just now is more apt to try the outlying sections than the cen- ter of a cif and she goes especlally to the smaller stores. The news of this imposture was received from the state orzanization of Chamber of Commerce secretaries. Christmas Tree Committee. The committee on a community Christmas tree has received many suggestions. and Is active in pushing the project. Canvass For Windham Hall Fund.

Heavy Mail From North Woodstock. Leonard H. Healey, North Wood- stock, secretary of the state board of agriculture, is keeping the postof- fice force at North Woodstock rea- sonably busy as one man might be expected to.
