Combing Won't Rid
Hair of Dandruff

The only sure way to get rid of
dandruff is to dissolve II, then you
destroy IT entirely. To do this, get
about four ounces OF ordinary liquid
arvon; apply it at night when retIr-
ing: use enough to moisten the scalp
and rub 1t in gently with the finger
tips.
DO this tonight, and by morning,
most If not all. of your dandruff
will be gone, and three or four more
applications will completely dissolve
and entirely destroy every single
sign and trace OF It, no matter how
much dandruff you may have.
You viii find, too. that all itching
and digging of the scalp will stop
at once. and your hair will be fluffy,
lustrous, glossy. silky and soft, and

 Evidence continues to multiply that a trolley express service will be in augurated between Worcester and New London and that Putnam will be one of the main points on the sys- tenn.
 All men of business who have stud jed the situation agree that there is a great field for trolley express service through the about 70 miles of terri-~ tory which the trolley lines cover and that such a service would speed up transportation in this period of war; rush when everybody wants more goods than ever were wanted before, and want them in a iiffy.
 l Tn connection with the advance talk of the establishment of this service it i is rumored here that the trolley peo- pie already are looking over available sites in Putnam for the location of a
 trolley freight station. Several sites. all close to the Shore Line Electric
 railway tracks, will be considered. it is said.
 | What can be done in trolley ex- pressing has been demonstrated by l the Rhode Island company, which
 daily runs a car into this city from Providence, via East Killingly and 1 E'lmville. This car always has a heavy consignment of freight and ex- press matter for this city and fur
 nishes fast and reliable service. Nothing in p. G. Wrisht's Grave,
 There was curiosity throughout the city Friday as to what would be re- 1 vealed when the slab covering the grave in which Phineas c. Wright is to be buried was removed, in Grove tcfr ofo xxTh ct Y1d O fa nous Wright memorial with the in-
 scription-'Going But Know Not Where.'
 There have been many stock stor- ies of the contents of the grave and
 they have been told for years past un- til they are known to about everyone in Putnam and surrounding towns
 Mir. Wright used to laugh at some of the stories of the graves contents
 when they were first told, but he af- forwards denied some of them and said there never had been any foun-
 dation for them.
 All of these stories were finally dis sipated Friday when the vaulted grave
 was opened and not a thing was found within it. It was said that MT. Wrighf deposited a newspaper and an en- velope containing a letter in the grave just before it was closed after tht
 vauiting had been completed, about { dozen years ago, but if he ever di( that thing the papers since havt moulded to dust, for there was nt
 trace Of them to be found Friday, no
 any evidence that they ever had beer deposited therein.
 It is gradually being borne in t 1, many peoples minds that Card wa . a grim joker as regards his own view .. of the future. though there are man! things to prove that his views o , eternity did not coincide with thos regarded as orthodox, and that he hat , 1 the courage to set forth what he be lieved is attested by the line on tb,
