SOCIALIST LITERATURE.
Special Organizer Has Scattered Their Campaign Documents Through Norwich and Baltic.

Norwich local of the socialist party held it's regular meeting Thursday night in the Stead block with George Moles in the chair. Two applications for membership were received and other routine business was transacted. The Norwich local has had the ser vices of a special organizer for three days this week who has covered this town as well as Baltic with literature.
 Among the socialists there has been much speculation as to the size of the socialist vote, and it was gen orally conceded that the bull moose party would catch a good number of half baked socialist voters, yet it was said that they had not drawn a single socialist of any prominence in the country to the bull moose party To a socialist eye, said one of the leaders of the party in Norwich, there is a su- perficial shalloWness about the pro- gressives' platform, no plank of which can be written on the statute books unless the United. States constitution and every state constitution is remod- eled from top to bottom. The social ists look upon the bull moose move ment as a movement to Sidetrack the people from turning to socialism. The progressives. he said, talk about being friends of the Workingman, when the chief packers of the progressive party have crushed every labor union out of existence in the industries which they control.
 William Kellas, socialist congress sional candidate, and Fred Holdsworth will speak at a socialist rally in Dan- ielson Saturday night.

NO MORE GRAY HAIR. Sage and Sulphur Remedy For Dand ruff? Faded and Gray Hair.

The old idea of using Sage for dark ening the hair is again coming in vogue. Our grandmothers had dark, glossy hair at seventy-five, while our mothers are gray before they are fifty. Our grandmothers kept their hair soft and glossy with a Sage Tea" which also restored the natural color.
 One objection to using such a prepar- atiou was the trouble of making it. This objection has been overcome by the Wveth Chemical Company of New York. wno has placed on the market 8 superior preparation of Sage, combined with sulphur and other valuable reme- dies for dandruff, itching scalp. and thin. weak falling hair.
 The beauty of the hair depends more on it's rich, even shading than any thing else. Don't have dry, harsh fad ed hair. when 8 simple, harmless rem edy will bring back the color in a few days; and don't be torrnented with dandruff. itching scalp and loose, fall ing hairs. Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Hair Remedy will: quickly correct these troubles, and give color, strength and beauty to your hair.

 No school in the morning-Fire alarm S.15 a. m.
 No school in the afternoon-Fire alarm 1230 p. m.
 If schools are closed in the mOrn- ing, children are to come in the after neon unless the signal is repeated at 12.30.

 The signal is two strokes of the fi- 6 alarm.
 It will be given for the different schools as follows:
