the garment on coat hooks, examin-

Things to Know About the Hair.

Things to Know About the Hair.
In order to keep the scalp healthy
the elasticity should be preserved by
massaging it-moving it with the
fingers and pinching it. If there is
too little fat the scalp oil should be
rubbed into thearoots of the hair.
Lanoline is highly recommended for
this purpose. 1t is the natural fat
of the sleeps wool, but is harsh
and sticky when used alone, so It is
better to employ vaseline or glycer-
inc with it. AS it is not considered
fashionable or desirable these days
to appear with greasy locks, It is
best to rub it into the roots with the
tips of the fingers. An intelligent
idea of the condition of the scalp
to which the tonics are applied
should be obtained before having re-
course to hair restoratives and ton
les, the falling of the hair being the
result of varying conditions. II the
circulation of the scalp is poor, the
hair dry and the skin is tight and
unyielding, not moving fully over
the underlying skull, stimulating ap-
plications to stir up the circulation
and restore the hair follicies are
necessary. Massage and electricity
are the most useful agents. If the
hair follicies are entirely destroyed
nothing is Of avail. Tincture of can
tharides, more or less strong, ac-
cording to the necessities Of the in
dividual case, is very useful where
the falling Of the hair is due to In
activity of the glands and follicies.
Lanoline and vaseline should be rub
bed in fully with the tips OF the fin
gers in order to penetrate the scalp
and at the same time soil the hair
as little as possible.

Cleaning Pounded Tin.

There is tin for making tubs,
heavy milk buckets and various ar.
ticles which is extremely difficult to
clean. The tin is pounded very
rough on the surface and retains the
dirt unless vigorously scrubbed. The
best way to clean it is with a stiff
brush, soap suds, and a liberal sup
ply of kerosene. In fact, the oil
seems to be the only thing which will
quickly remove the dirt, and is
splendid for the purpose.

EXPLOSION KILLS HUNDREDS
FIRE DAMP CAUSES FATALITIES
IN TWO MINES.
500 Entombed in a Prussian Mine
All Believed to Have
Perished.

Saarbrueck, Rhenish Prussia-A FIRE
damp explosion occurred in the Reden
coal mine at st. Johann-on.Saar, oppo-
site Saarbrueck. The mine Is owned
by the Prussian government. Only 60
live men have been brought out, and
Of these the doctors say at least So
will die, as they are frightfully in
jured through having been hurled
against the walls of the galleries by
the force of the explosion.
Brave Rescue Workers.
Immediately after the explosion res
u workers were hurried from all the
adjacent mines and boldly entered the
Reden shaft in great numbers.
The work of rescue has been great
ly hampered by the poisonous gases
resulting from the explosion and by
a fierce fire hat broke out immediate
ly afterwards. This caused efforts at
rescue to be suspended and the work
ers had to be ordered out of the mine.
Second Explosion.
After all the rescuers had reached
daylight, according to one version, a
second terrific explosion was heard
underground. But, according to an
other report, many of the rescuers
were still below when the second ex-
plosion occurred, and 1t is estimated
that the casualty list from the two ex-
plosions reaches a total of 800 men.
All Below Dead-Mine on Fire.
1t is regarded as certain that the
lowest levels of the mines are COM
pletely wrecked, and the inspectors
are celebrating upon further meas
ures to get control of the fire. The
managers are discussing the advisa-
bility of flooding these levels as the
only can Of extinguishing the
flames. 1t is believed that all the
men who were in the lower levels as
suredly are dead. 1t will take a full
week to enter and explore the mine.
Almost Half a Mile Underground.
The. disaster occurred 1900 feet un-
der ground, and is one and a quarter
miles from the floor of the shaft. 1t
is the greatest mining catastrophe ever
known in the Saar region.
About GOO men entered the mine
for the day shift, but a number of
them escaped through the Bildstock
shaft, which communicates with the
Reden underground. The entrance
to the galleries underground is blocked
with dead horses.
Mansled Beyond Recognition.
Most of the bodies brought to the
surface are mangled beyond recogni-
ton. The mine inspectors ordered
the rescuers to return to their homes,
but to hold themselves in readiness
for further orders.
Emperor William has ordered that
a full report of the disaster be sent
him.
Experts calculate that the rescue
work will take one week.
