One fine tree or shrub, growing
where nature might have planted it, is
worth a dozen crowded and ill-placed

Vines for pillars and walls, shrubs
for screens and backgrounds, trees for
needed shade, beds of flowers bordering
walks and drives all are pleasing be-
cause appropriate and natural. On the
contrary, could anything be in worse
taste than thick rows of evergreen,
such as we sometimes see between
dwelling house and the street? They
shut off every vista or point of view
from this within and hide all beauty
from the passerby. Or could anything
be more abominable than a conspicu-
ously artificial rockery built in the

as appropriate there as an Indian wig
wan would be.
The first consideration is not tree or

of green lawn. The grassy lawn is the

trimmings and ornaments. Naturally,
the latter should not be used to excess.

of Experts.
1t would require an exceptionally
clever swimmer to carry to a success
full end feat accomplished by a girl
of Is in consequence of a bet made on
the subject. Completely dressed, wear
ing all the ordinary undergarments, a
heavy serge dress, boots, hat and
gloves, this girl swan a quarter OF
a mile. AS she carried a huge bou-
quet in one hand and an umbrella,-of
bright turkey red-in the other, she
was, of course, unable to use her arms
at all, and therefore propelled herself
with her feet entirely. This was a mas
terpiece of swimming, and few can
hope to compass such an exploit sue
cessfully.
Water sports and races, with prizes
for successful contestants, are becom-
ing more and more popular features of
summer entertainment.
To give one an idea of the scope of
an entertainment of this description,
the following programme is submitted,
which may be varied and added to or
taken from according to the talent of
the performers:
First Short race--f1fty yards-ordi-
nary swimming.
Second. Short race-fifty yards
swimming on the back.
Third. Competition for the best and
longest float.
Fourth. Swimming with arms only,
legs tied, fifty yards.
Fifth. Swimming with legs only,
hands clasped behind the neck, fifty
yards.
Sixth. Running header and race OF
one hundred yards.
Seventh. Swimming on the back
without once turning.
Eighth. The best dive.
Ninth. A prize for the person who
can remain longest under water.
The grand finale is the GROWING
point, and the fun wakes fast and flu
rious. All the competitors attend full
ly equipped in old clothes, including
hats, boots, gloves and parasols, and
row out in the boat to the middle OF
the lake, when the boat is overturned
the party swimming ashore as best
they can. the prize being awarded to

After this, having arrayed themselves
in proper bathing attire, the competi-
| tors are at liberty to exhibit as many
feats as they can devise, such, for ex-
| ample, as writing a letter.
To carry out this performance sue
| cessfully one must understand how to
tread water. The contestants swim
out to the middle of the pond, holding
writing pad paper and envelope high
above the head, the letters are then
written (the persons treading water all
| the time), placed in envelopes and adj
dressed and forwarded to different per-
sons on shore by a water postman, who
must swim ashore holding the letters
high above his head.

THE HAIR IN HOT WEATHER.
Some Good Ideas for Home Treat

If the scalp does not perspire unduly
in warm weather and proper precau-
lions are taken, the moisture will i'm
prove the appearance of the hair. Aft
err few hot nights, which cause one
to awaken with damp locks, shampoo
ing is, of course, the right thing.
Should this be announcement, a wash
cloth wrung out of warm water should
be used briskly on scalp and hair. This
should be repeated several times, and
the water changed once or more. After
this the vigorous use of a dry towel will
so brighten and wake up the hair
as to insure a repetition of this treat
ment.
After a "spell' of hot weather the
cases are very rare where the hair
does not come out in combfuls. The
above treatment, or, better still, sham
pooling, must be resorted to- in which
case, if the following advice is strictly
carried out, the dry, dead hair which
has come away will be replaced by a
healthier new growth.

1t must not be forgotten that 1t is

A WORTHY SUCCESSOR.
"Something New Under the Sun

All Doctors have tried to cure CATARRH

the same membranes that their makers have
aimed to cure, while pastes and ointments can
not reach the disease. An old and expert
