DISCUSS RAISING MONEY
 FOR INSTRUMENTATION PLANT

Up to date about SEQ 000 worth Of stock in the proposed milk pasteuriza-
 ton plant for Norwich has been sold.
 which leaves almost S25.000 more to
 be raised before the plant can be built.
 On Wednesday noon a committee
 from the Chamber of Commerce met
 with the organization committee of the
 milk producers in the farm bureau
 rooms and discussed ways and means
 of putting the proposition through. The producers who originally started the cooperative corporation have reached a point where they deemed it
 best to call in several of the business men of the city to interest and in struct in the new proposition. The plan was thoroughly discussed and it was thought best enlist local capital rather than to let outside capital come i in, as it is the local producers and consumers who are most concerned | with the outcome of the new plant.
 Several plans were discussed at the
 meeting, such as bond issue, an issue 1 of preferred stock and other means of raising the needed S25,0 There will l be another open meeting of the organ l ization committee in the near future

How Old Are You
 By Your Hair ?

You may be thirty in years, but if you are bald headed, gray, or your hair is dry, brittle, scraggly and ugly looking, people will surely take you to be many years older.
 When your hair becomes faded, dry, streaked and scraggly, when it falls out badly and new hair cannot grow, the roots should be immediately VI tolized and properly nourished. To do this quickly, safely and at little expense, there is nothing so effective as Parisian sage Liquid form) which you can get at Lee & Osgood Go. and all good drug and toilet counters.
 It's guaranteed to abolish dandruff- stop scalp itch and falling hair and promote a new growth or money re- funded. It's in great demand by dis eliminating women because it makes the hair so soft, lustrous, easy to ar 'ange attractively and appear heavier than it really is.
 A massage with Parisian sage is 8 real delight-easy to use, not sticky or greasy. and delicately perfumed-an antiseptic liquid free from dangerous ingredients and guaranteed not to color the hair or scalp. If you want good looking hair and plenty of it by all means use Parisian ssge-a little attention now insures beautiful hair for years to come-Adv.
