be destroyed by the use of a good
quinine hair tonic made as follows:
Get from your druggist one ounce of
quinzoin, dissolve it in half pint of
alcohol and add half pint of cold
water. Rub this tonic into the scalp
gently every night for the first week.
Then use it twice a week. brushing

c. F. D.: You say you do not like
to follow the new styles in hair
dressing because your hair is streak
ed with different shades of color.
These streaks are undoubtedly due
to shampooing with soap and water.
/ recommend canthrox in preference
to any other shampoo. 1t makes a
rich and plentiful lather that thor
oughly cleans the scalp, removes
dandruff, relieves itching and irrita-
ton and leaves the hair soft, bright
and fluffy. This inexpensive and
quick-drying home shampoo is pre-
pared by dissolving a teaspoonful
of canthrox in a teacupful of hot
water. Pour on the head little at
a time, using it as you would any
other shampoo.
Virginia: If you will battle your
feet in basin of hot water in which
you have dissolved two teaspoonfuls
of phrosol, you will soon cease suffer-
ing from sore, swollen and sweaty
feet. Phrosol is inexpensive and can
be purchased at any drug store. 1t
is an antiseptic and healing deodor-
poisonous excretions (foot powders
only clog the pores). Phrosol helps
to harden tender feet and you will
find It great help to you if you must
stand all day.
E. S. T.: I know of several ladies
who were troubled with superfiuous
hair on the face who got rid of it by
applying delatone two or three times.
Get an original package of delatone
from your druggist and mix little
of the powder with a little water, so
as to make a paste. Apply to the
surface from which you wish to re-
move the hair, let remain two or
three minutes, then wipe off the
paste and the hair will come with it.
Wash the skin thoroughly with warm
water after the application. The
hair may return after the first appli-
cation, but it will be light and color
less. 1t will completely disappear
after two or three treatments with
delatone.
{ Olivette: If you are afflicted with
pfmples, are thin and sallow, and
suffer continuously from a tired
out" feeling, you need good sys-
TEN tonic that will cleanse your
blood. make your liver more active
and build you, up and strengthen you.
Try this: Dissolve half teacupful of
sugar and one ounce of kardene in
half pint of alcohol and add enough
boiling water to make a full quart
of tonic. Take a tablespoonful be-
fore each meal and at bed time You
can get the kardene and alcohol at
any drug store. This old fashioned
home remedy restores lost appetite
and aids digestion. Take it and you
soon will be stronger and free from
pimples and blotches.
Alice: If the joking of your sweet
heart embarrass you, stop using
face powder. The next time you go
into the drug store get four ounces
of spurmax, dissolve it in half pint
of hot water and add two teaspoon
fu1s of glycerine. This makes a fine |
complexion beautif1er that will rid

DROWNING FATALITY
 IN WILLIMANTIC RIVER
Attempting to Swim with Waterwings Vinsenzo Curente, 20, Lost Life When They Slipped Off.

A drowning fatality resulted Sun day afternoon in the Willimantic river in that portion known as the Eelwire just above Louis Ayres' house, when attempting to swim with the aid of waterwings, lost their assistance by reason of their slipping from his shoulders, and going down for the third time was drowned in the deep pool near the center of the river.
 Quite large number of young men and boys were wandering around the river banks at the time and some were in swimming, but none could reach the man in time to avert the catastrophe.
 Word was telephoned to Capt. E. H. Richmond at 2.50 o'clock and he and City Sheriff R. o. Snow when to the river with grappling irons and ropes. When they arrived at the place of the accident the unfortunate Italian had been pulled out by Napoleon D. Val liant. who lives. .on Winter street. Val liant dove for the man for twenty minutes or more and he had been in the river some time before he arrived and tried to locate the body. It is therefore believed that the drowning occurred a little after o'clock.
 Medical Examiner Louis 1. Mason was notified and arrived at 21 minutes to four and pronounced death due to accidental drowning He gave orders to Funeral Directors Fillmore & Shep- ard to prepare the body for burial
 Curente, who has been working as a hod carrier on the new high school building. boarded with a family at 929 Main street and had no other relatives in this city than cousins. He was to have gone back to his native country next month, it is said. The Italian citizens of the community are circu- lating a paper to raise money to de-. fray the expenses of the funeral and burial.

CHARGED WITH MANsLAUeHTER
Robert B. Bridges Pleaded Not Guilty and Bound Over to Superior Court -Companion in Shooting Affair Dis charged.

Arraigned before Judge Harry E. Back in the town court Saturday morning on the charge of manslaugh- ter in connection with the death of Philip Loomis, Robert B. Bridges, through his guardian ad Item, an un- cle, Charles E. Weeks of Attawaugan, pleaded rot guilty, waived examination and was tound over to the next term of the superior court having criminal jurisdiction. His bond was fixed by the court at $1, 900, in default of which he was taken to the jail at Brooklyn He will remain there until the first Tuesday in September
 His companion at the time of the shooting, Arthur Warehouse. of Alta waugan, also on the ice runway using a rifle was discharged without hay ing charges preferred against him, as the investigation of Coroner Arthur c. Bill has satisfactorily established that the bullet that killed Philip came from the rifle of the boy now in jail. Waterhouse went to his home with his parents.
 Before slowing him to leave the court room, however, Judge Back spoke of some pertinent facts to Ed ward Waterhouse, father of the boy, relative to his laxity of supervision in permitting his son to roam about the surrounding country, shooting recklessly without due regard for the safety of others. That no person is within his rights when he goes about the fields or woods, whether the land be his own or anothers, shooting a death dealing weapon with criminal carelessness, was made perfectly clear by Judge Back and requested, speaking to those in the court room, that any person who was in posses sion of or came to know such a case, that it be made known to the prose cutting attorney. MT Warehouse said that Arthur would not again be per mitted to use a rife. He thought that his boy had had a severe lesson.
 The most sad feature of the case is, of course, beyond remedy. The hope is that it has taught a lesson to other boys and to parents that have allowed them the use of weapons, and that it will prevent the repetition of such a calamity Being sorry does not make amends to those who must en- dure seeing a young life plotted from the family circle. Windham county too frequently is the scene of such tragedies as that of Thursday night.

Enemies to Bio Trees.

Natural influences in nearly all parts of Block island are so unfavor- able to tree growth that the planting of trees with the expectancy of having them attain even a fair size is not practicable, is the conclusion reached in a report prepared by R. L. Rogers. a special investigator connected with the United States bureau of forestry.
 MT. Rogers says that he finds the residents of the island so discouraged through failure to combat successfully the gales and salt vapor of the island that there is no sentiment that would guarantee a united effort for reforest- ing the island.
