The Hair Easily Made
 Beautiful and Attractive

Beautiful hair, thick, fluffy, -iustrous and absolutely free from dandFuff is not so much a gift of nature as a matter of care and proper nourish- ment. Hair is like plant-it will not grow healthy and beautiful unless it has attention and proper nutriment.
 Parisian Sage, a daintily perfumed liquid that is easly applied, tones up and tnvigorates the hair roots and furnishes the necessary nourishment to not only save and beautify the hair, but also stimulate it to grow long, heavy, soft, fluffy and radiant with life.
 When used frequently and well rubbed into the scalp 1t will simply work wonders. Just one application stops itching head, removes dandrufY and cleanses the hair of all dust and ex- cess oil.
 Since Partisan Sage, which can be obtained from Lee & Osgood, or at any drug or toilet counter, never dis appoints, 1t is no longer necessary for any woman to be humiiiated because of thin streaky, faded, lifeless or un- attractive hair-and pertty hair. more than anything else, helps every woman to retain her charm and youthful an pearance.

POST OFFICE
MEASURE APPROVED
DanieIson Hopeful Of Securing seo, 900
 Appropriation for Federal Buiidina.

Congressman Bryan F. Mahan, who has striven hard to forward the bi:l providing for the erection of federal postofflce building in Danielson, has announced that the measure has been approved. by the appropriations com mfttee of the national congress and the indications now are that 1t will be speedily passed and $60,000 made available for the purpose indicated
 This cheering nnouncement coming so closely after the one containing the information that free city delivery ser vice is to be established in Danielson on January 2. gives local people hope that Danielson is soon to receive some attention. It also causes the recur- renee of the discussions as to possible sites for the proposed building. A number of suitable ones are held ;n mind by Danielson people, all conven- tent of access and at no great dis tance from the railroad station. Wheth- CT or not all of these cites will be available is something about which no one is sure, however, at a price within reason. ..
 Congressman Mahan will do all n his power to have the pending bill enacted into law at the earliest possi- bIe moment.

WOODLAND FIRES CHECKED.
But Heavy Rain is Needed to Extin. guish SmoIdering Stumps and Ire, Trunks.


 Fire fighters who, in many cases, had been battling with forest fires in Kill lingly and Plaindeld for a period of 30 to 36 hours, got a we'll earned rest Wednesday, In this town the fires were subdued late Tuesday night and seemed to have been crushed out fi.r the time being, although watchers re- mained on duty along the front of the burned areas. In the large woodland many dead tree trunks and stumps- all dry as finder, which continue to burn and smolder and thereby threaten another outbreak of the fires. It is quite impossible to completely extin- guis!- the fires in these stumps and dead trunks, as the blaze frequently cats its way down into the roots and slowly feeds on the dry wood-often for days-until a brisk wind rises and whisks sparks out and on to unburned areas, staring the destructive fires anew. This is menace that will keep the property owners, the fire warders and their assistants on edge until the heavy rain that Uncle Horace talks about comes along or some other means is found of producing drench- ing storm.
 Many of the fire fighters were sui. fering from exhaustion after the long struggle to save the valuable timber lands in the path of the various fires. Fighting the flames is an entranciny spectacle as seen at some summer shore resort, but ft is an entirely dif- ferent proposition in the thick Of woods, stifing with clouds of smolS, of the intense heat. Some difficulty was experienced in keeping watchers on their. jobs after the fires were under control and a number of them had left,
