VALUABLE ANTIQUES AND
 HEIRLOOMS BURNED

HeirIooms and valuable antique fur niture belonging to the family of Winslow T. Williams, formerly of Yantic, were burned on Tuesday night in the fire that destroyed an auto truck on the Montville road near the tuberculosis sanatorium. They were being moved from this city to New York where MT. Williams and family are to reside.
 The truck that was burned was one of three that had left here late in the afternoon to transport the Williams furniture. and the loss will be consid- erable. although the West Side fire company saved part of the furni- ture that was on this truck
 In addition to fighting the fire they got to work unloading the truck as fast as possible and in this way got much of the furniture out of reach of the flames A piano that was loaded near the rear end of the truck was too solidly packed in to be moved readily and was badly scorched.
 The Williams furniture has been stored in the Majestic building on Wa ter street for about four months. II has not all been removed yet.

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 vii tolized and properly nourished. To do this quickly, safely and at little expense, there is nothing so effective as Parisian sage Qiquid form) which you can get at Lee & Osgood Co. and all good drug and toilet counters.
 It's guaranteed to abolish dandruf- stop scalp itch and falling hair and promote 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 range attractively and appear heavier than it really is.s
 A massage with Parisian sage is a 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 sage-a little attention now insures beautiful hair | for years to come.-Adv

GERMAN PROPAGANDA
 SHOWS IN NORWICH

Signs of German propaganda in spreading false reports calculated to alarm the families of soldiers have been showing in this city in the past few days. These have referred to the 102nd regiment composed for the greater part of the former First and Second Infantry regiments of the Connecticut National Guard. One of the reports that has been in circula- ton was that there had been a special call for nurses and doctors who would look after the badly cut-up remnants of the 102nd.
 War department officials in Wash ington emphatically denied on We'd nesday a rumor that the 102nd reg iment had been returned to the United States.
 There have been all kinds of rumors about the 102nd regiment It has been reported losing so heavily in casual ties that some of its units were re- turned. and some rumors went 90 fa1 as to say it had landed at an t9lar4 tic port last Saturday.
 All of these rumOrs are groundless W2r department officials assert. Nc units or parts of units of the Ameri can forces able to fight are to be re- turned to the United States until af ter the war is won. a member of the general staff said.
 Tho onlv soldiers being returned tc the United States are wounded and convalescent men needing a consid- erable rest and entire change of en- vironment, it is said.
 The 102nd regiment is still ver2 live. virile and much to be feared fighting force, the war department re. ported, and there $ no necessity fol returning it home.

4,OOO K. W. ENGINE WILL EQUIP PLANT

In the course of month, and per- haps more the members of the gas and electric commission will be able to view with complacency the cleo tric equipment of the city plant. By that time it is hoped the new 1000 kilowatt turbine will be ready to turn over and it will be 'easy street" instead of the anxious seat" for the official force of the plant every time a thunder storm is threatening. Lightless and "juiceless" periods for the city will also be things of the past when the new engine gets to operat- ing, it is confidently believed, for the capacity of the now overloaded elec- trical equipment will be so augment l ed that there ought to be nothing to | fear for the future
 1 By that time the plant will have en- zines of 75O, 1000 and 4,6O0 kilowatt power. The largest engine will be able to carry the entire load leaving the other two for emergencies.
