Presence Of Mind.

There is nothing like having presence
of mind. A farmer near Mount Bridges.
Ontario, was drawing a log across the
Great Western Railway track, when the
sleigh stuck in the rails.0 Now, when a
loaded, iron-shod sleigh gets stuck on a
railroad. track it is no slight job to get
it off, and the farmers horses proved
unequal to the task. As the Atlantic
express was in sight, some people might
have lost their presence of mind, Not
SO the farmer. He quietly unhitched
his horses and removed himself and
them to safe distance. He did not
signal the engineer, as some foolish
people would have done. but waited
with great faith in the power of the
engine to do what his horses were un-
able to accomplish. To the credit Of
steam, it is said that he was not .disap-.
pointed. Not only was the sleigh re-
moved from the track, but the engine
also. AS was previously remarked.
there is nothing like presence Of mind.

AN old Ruby Hill miner, says the
Carson City appeal, who has had fifteen
years experience under ground, says
that he has observed one peculiar fact,
that between twelve and two O'Clock
in the night, if there is loose stone or
bit of earth in the mine it is sure to fall.
Says he: "About this time it seems
that everything begins to stir, and i'm.
mediately after twelve, although the
mine has been still as tomb before,
you will hear particles Of rock and
earth come tumbling down, and if there
is a caving piece of ground in the mine
it is sure to give way.

Arthur Lawrie? Oh, yes, he was in

somewhere else to board because he
couldn't use the piano there on account

any difference to me. He used to come

that l knew my feeling had really

grown merely for seed, leaving the plant to
other purposes than for fibre. If there is
profit for growing flax for its seed, there
would be larger one if the fibre is econom-
ically utilized. If the farmers of the above
mentioned States can make fax a paying or
profitable crop, then farmers in other locali-
ties may find it equally so. 1t would be
much better for many others to embark in
some such crops than to take up one new
to them, which requires greater skill
to make it a success. Hemp, jute, ramie
and many other crops have merits which
| need not refer to here. Then there
is sumach-Rhus glabra-indigenous to the
United States from Canada to Florida the
foliage of which is useful for tanning fine
leather, yielding larger percentage of tai
min than that imported at large expense.
With little experience and care in prepare
ton, &C., many farmers might make this a
source of revenue, costing little except the
gathering, preparation and marketing. 1t is
the utilizing and saving of little things
which make small farming profitable The
large farmer, having capital, feels less need
of resorting to small measures. Attempt
ing to follow the lead of the large farmers,
by those of small means, is too often the
reason of failure.-Cor. Country Gentleman.

A Barber on Badness.

Speaking ofithe credulity of many people
touching the efficacy of hair tonics, an intel
ligent French hair-dresser says: Very often
the hair falls out after sickness. In such cases
it generally grows again without the aid of any
hair tonic whatever; but when it falls out
from natural causes it never grows again.
The celebrated DIR. Bazip, who was formerly
physccian-in-chief of the ST. Louis hospital at
Paais and who is known throughout the
world as the most learned specialist for affec-
lions OF the skin, told me one day that there
was nothing that could make the hair grow af-
Ter the badness had come on gradually. This
believe firmly, for, il there was anything of
the kind, we would not see so many New
York doctors with heads as completely desti-
tute of hair as the backs of turtles. 1 am even
persuaded that these gentlemen would follow.
the example of those Greek heroes who under
the leadership of Jason, made a voyage to
Colchis to bring back the Golden Fleece,
Modern Argonauts, the doctors, would con-
slider themselves happy if they could bring
back from such voyage the secret of restor-
ing the human fleece.
L don't think am far from the truth when
say that during the past 25 years that have
practiced the profession of hair-dresser, l have
made the trial upon different bald heads of
more than oUU dl1ferent mar tones, and am
bound to admit that never saw single head
the hair of which was restored after badness.
At the end of SO many failures 1 am complete
ly undeceiyed as to the value of all the prepa-
rations and l would not now recommend any
one of them, because l would be afraid to COM
init the crime that is designated by the words
obtaining money under false pretenses.' In
my pathological studies upon the hair, have
found that people who prespire great deal
fom the head are apt. to get bald. The bad
habit of wearing the hat indoors is also very
hurtful to the hair. In 1906, after the famous
battle of Jena, in which the Piussians were
completely defeated by Napoleon 1, Baron
Larrey, the celebrated military surgeon, per-
ceived that many of the German prisoners
were completely bald. Surprised, he made
inquiries as to the cause of this and he found
that they owed their badness to the shape
as homely as unhealthy-of their caps. The
foul air of their head gear, having no issue,
destroyed the vitality Of the hair.
