SEASONS WORST STORM
Sundays Downpour Approaches De
 luge Proportions

Putnam and vicinity escaped the havoc wrought in many cities and towns in this and bordering states during Sunday evenings thunder storm. but this section was thorough ly drenehed by the heavy downpodr that continued for several hours. The rainfall approached deiuge propor- tions, and as a result considerable damage was done. chiefly by washouts.
 Telephone service was affected be- cause some lines were put out of com mission and trolley service was inter- rupted when washouts covered the rails with dirt and stones. Under the railroad bridge on Front street, the rails were covered several inches deep by dirt when the steam railroad bank, at the Putnam Coal X Wood Go. office was washed away. tons of dirt being washed into the street.
 Miniature lakes were formed in gardens in low lying sections, causing considerable damage and in some iu- stances growing plants were hattened to the ground by the heavy down pour.
 Vivid lightning, accompanied by sharp elaps of thunder, served to greatly disturb the peace of mind Of those who dislike such storms or are in deathly fear of them So there was a great sigh of relief when the sever est storm of the season had passed on to torment other humans in other sec tions of New England.

GRANDMA NEVER LET
 HER HAIR GET GRAY
She Kept Her Locks Dark and Glossy. with Sage Tea
 and Sulphur.

When you darken your hair with Sage Tea and Sulphur. no one can tell, be- cause it's done 90 naturally, so evenly. Preparing this mixture. though, at home. is mnssy and troublesome. At little cost you can buy at any drug store the ready -to-use preparation, improved by the addition of other ingredients called "Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Compound You just dampen a sponge or soft brush with it and draw this through your hair, taking one small strand at A time. By morning all gray hair disappears, and. after another application or two, your hair becomes beautifully darkeDed, glossy and luxuTisnt.
 Gray, faded hair. though no disgrace, is q sign of old age, and as we all desire . youthful and attractive appearance, get busy at once with Wyeths Sage and Sulphur Compound and look years younger.

CONVEYS BY ERROR
 TIMBER IN POMFRET
Joseph Elliott Brings Suit to Have Deed of Sale Re-
 drawn
Injunction Ressrains John Grosvenor
 From Cutting Trees Down

Claiming that he never intended conveying a certain tract of standing timber in Pomfret, and claiming that the conveying Of the land and timber by deed was an error. Joseph H. El- liott. Pomfret lumber dealer. has brought suit through his attorneys. Torrey X Geissier, against the Rhode Island Hospital Trust Co. of Provi- dence. Henry II. Davenport. and John P Gresvenor Mir. Elliott asks for a reformation of deed in which the timber was alleged to be conveyed by error. The timber is valued at SS,- 900.
 Judge Hinman of the Superior court has signed a writ of injunction, re- straining Mir. Grosvenor, one of the defendants. from disposing of or cut ting the standing timber involved in the controversy.
 Property in Pomfret of the late George Bradley is the one involved in the court action. The Providence bank. acting as trustee of the Bradley estate. sold the property to Mir. Elliott and he was allowed. after he had filled certain provisions, to parcel it into various tracts. and by agreement the trust company would issue a deed to whosoever Mir. Elliott designated.
 Mir Elliott alleges that he sold to Mir Davenport, who acted as agent for Mir. Grosvenor. certain tract of land divided by a road leading from the home of Fred Child to the home of John F. Hanley. The deed of sale reserved all the timber standing on the tract of land. Later Mir. Elliott sold a second strip of land to Mir. Dav- export and he alleges in his complaint that the deed of sale in this case was made out in error. He intended to convey the timber standing on the land sold under the first decd. which part was on the south side of the di- viding road But he says he did not intend to convey the timber standing on the tract north of the road, which timber the deed did convey.
 The writ Is returnable to the Su- perior court at the session Go be held the first Tuesday in September.
