At The Coliseum
THE most difficult type of Grim

out a motive said the Assistant
Project Of the Paris Police, as a
reason why the man who had been
causing many terrible train wrecks
had not been caught

A Message to the owners of 17,389 Stove Heated Homes

Think of it - l7,3s9, or 5796 of homes in Waterbury heated by stoves.
 If your home is stove heated and you have never realized that the purchase of Radiator Heating System could be made possible, then consider this as a personal message.
 Undoubtedly you have often wished that you could have warm home heated to even warmth by radiator in every room. Fossil bly, you have inquired as to the costs and found that the installation amounted to more dollars than you had in your pocket, so it was postponed.
 You enjoy comfort and so does your family. You like to relax after work and be comfortable And no one can be com fortable if the wind is bowling out of doors, the temperature is below freezing, and the house is shivery.
