FALL HATS WORN
Even Though Summer Lineers-VeI- vet Lids Go With Sheerest Frocks This Season-BeautifuI Models Seen in the AutumnaI Displays.

Mild weather does not interfere with hat buying, since so many Fall hats are worn in these times with the sheerest of summer frocks.
 A handsome hat seen yesterday was an African brown sailor, strikingly embroidered in the fashionable rope silk in three shades, red, green and yellow, forming the band about the crown. The finish was a long pea cock sweep.
 African brown was the tint, too, of a smart Gage large hat. with rich gold and brown band, in tinsel applique in points. The crown was extended in the velvet and had a modish satin top.
 A beautiful toque in hunters green had draped velvet crown and for trimming rich shaded plumes.
 Elegant was a picture hat in gold lace combined with brown velvet, a smart touch being a streamer in gold and blue. A knot of French flowers in tinse1 formed the finish.
 Bottle green is a favored tint this season. It was the hue of a large shape in bonnet effect seen yester- day, its trimming silver flowers and tailored grosgrain bow at the front.
 Effective was the combination of African brown velvet and canary picot ribbon and canary wing. in one of the natty sailors shown.

SAYS WATER IS IN
 GOOD CONDITION
Director of State Laboratory Writes to
 Supt. Edwin L. Burnap.

l At the present time the water in tke 1 reservoir is in good condition, no algae 1 being found in any considerable quan- 1 tity, is the statement made in a letter 1 to Supt. Edwin L. Burnap from Prof. | H. W. Conn, director of the Connecti- 1 cut laboratory of the state board of health. The letter follows:
 At your request, | have viSited the
 reservoir of the Norwich water de- partment with which YOU have been 1 having trouble in the last few weeks. Previous examinations of the water by chemical and bacteriological ana
 lysis have shown that there is no sus-
 picion of sewage contamination and
 that from a sanitary standpoint the water is in good condition.
 ''The trouble complained of in the
 water was l bad odcr and taste and a high color. Unfortunately I was not
 called to the reservoir while the trou-
 ble was at it's height, and at the pres
 ent time it has practically disappeared.
 For this reason l could not positively
 determine it's cause. From the de-
 scription of the trouble given me I
 think there can be no doubt that it
 was caused by algae of some kind,
 possibly anabaena, for this organism when abundant produces such tastes and odors and a rusty color in the water frequently accompanies it. At the present time the water in the reservoir is in good condition, no
 algae being found in any considerable
 quantity. The odor and taste have
 disappeared from the water in the reservoir and no traces can be now found of any organisms that may have caused the trouble. If you should turn
 on the water now, after thoroughly
 flushing the mains, I think that you will have no further trouble for the present.
 T would suggest that if at any time
 in the future you begin to have such unpleasant odors you at once consult some water engineer who will be able to suggest to you such treatment as may remedy the trouble.''
 Superintendent Burnap said Thurs day afternoon that the mains have al- | ready been flushed and are now in good condition

MORE RHEUMATISM
 THAN EVER BEFORE

CIerqymen, Lawyers, Brokers, Me
 chanics and Merchants Stricken.
 Our old friend Rheumatiz is having his inning this year, and a few words of caution from one who knows all about it may not be amiss.
 Wear rubbers in damp weather; keep your feet dry; drink plenty of lemonade, and avoid strong alcoholic drinks.
 If rheumatism gets you, or sciatica, and you have sharp twinges, gnawing pain or swollen joints or f4...7c.es, you can get rid of all agony in just few days by taking one-half teaspoonful of Rheuraa once a day.
 All druggists know about Rheuma i; it's harmless, yet powerful; cheap, yet sure and a 60-cent bottle will last a long time. Ask Lee & Osgood or any druggist.
