Nayal tnrlneer and .Rnnh !,

Rear Admiral Charles w Rae, en-
gineer in chief of the United States
Navy, in his annual report calls atten-
ton ITO the critical condition of en-
cheering in the navy"
If the Engineer Corps had devoted
as much time to the increase and bet
terment of their branch of the SER
vice as it has to scrambling for rank
the critical condition OF engineering
in the navy" would not now exist.
In these days only the interested can
tell the difference between d rear
admiral commanding a fleet and a
rear-admiral commanding an engine
room. The thing Is simply absurd and
even ridiculous and uncalled for, and
has led to much confusion.
We should think an engineer officer
would be proud to bear the rank which
indicates HIS profession rather than
that Of another branch Of the service,
and sail around on ship and shore un-
der false colors. They should have
a rank name that could not be mis-
taken even by the most obtuse lands
man, and be proud of it, For years
this rank business has been a bone OF
contention in naval circles, and has
engendered more bad blood and ill
feeling than any personal matter that
has affected the service. The talk Of
rank and the greed for rank have
wrought much mischief in the navy.
A sailor should be known as a sailor,
and an engineer as an engineer, not
only as to qualifications. but as to
duty to be performed both In uniform
and IN title.

To the question, how often should
shampooing be done? it may be an
swered that it entirely depends on the
person and the occupation. Persons
who have to travel to and fro on the

work, should shampoo much oftener
than those who are not SO exposed; but
it is a safe rule to say that if danGrun

the head should be washed. Once a

enough for decency, but once a week

properly given.

this purpose, although the tincture OF
