NATIONAL GUARD AND
WORTH TO REPUBLIC.

NOlNlu W. NbIN blIlNs
Now that the organized militia.
the National Guard, has been incor-
porated with the army as a part OF
the national forces, 1t behooves the
government to do every reasonable
thing in It's power to perfect its ef-
ficiency. II should be assisted in
its instruction and otherwise aided
more literally than heretofore. The
continuous services of many we'll
trained regular officers will be es-
scntal in this connection. Such Of
ficers must be specially trained at
service schools best to qualify them
as instructors OF the National Guard.
But the detailing OF officers for
training at the service schools and
for duty with the National Guard
entails detaching them from their
regiments which are already greatly
depleted by detachment OF officers
for assignment to duties prescribed
by acts OF the Congress.
A bill is now pending before the
Congress creating a number Of extra
officers in the army, which il passed
as 1t ought to be, will enable more
officers to be trained as instructors
of National Guard and assigned to
that duty. In case OF war 1t will be
OF the utmost Importance to have a
large number Of trained Officers TO
use for turning raw levies into good
troops.
There should be legislation TO pro-
vide a complete plan for organizing
the great body OF volunteers behind
the regular army and National Guard
when war has come. Congressional
assistance should be given those who
are endeavoring to promote rifle
practice so that our men, in the SER
vices or out OF them, may know how
to use the rifle. While teams repre-
senting the United States, won the
rifle and revolver championships of
the world against all corners in Eng
land this year. 1t is unfortunately
true that the great body of our citl-
zens shoot less and less as time goes
on. To meet this We should en-
courage rifle practice among school
boys, and indeed among all classes
as we'll as in the military services, by
every means in our power. Thus, and
not otherwise, may We be able to as
sist in preserving the peace OF tho
world. Fit to hold our own against
the strong nations Of the earth, our
voice for peace will carry to the ends
Of the earth, Unprepared and there
fore unfit, we must sit dumb and
helpless 10 defend ourselves, protect
others, or preserve peace. The first
step--in the direction of preparation
to avert war II possible, and to be
fit for war IL it should come--is to
teach our men to shoot

COMPLIMENTS WORKERS
ON PANAMA CANAL.

The work on the Panama canal
Is being done with speed, efficiency
and entire devotion to duty, which
make It model for all work Of the
kind. No task of such magnitude
has ever before been undertaken by
any nation; and no task OF the kind
has ever been better performed. The
men on the Isthmus, from Colonel
Goethals and his fellow commission
ers through the entire list of en-
ployes who are faithfully doing their
duty have won their right to the
ungrudglng respect and gratitude of

IN Cuba our occupancy will cease

bans have In orderly manner elected
their own governmental authorities,
and tho island will be turned over
to them, our occupation on this
occasion has lasted a little over two
years, and Cuba has thrIyen and

hope and one desire Is that the poo.
pie OF the island shall now govern
themselves with justice, 30 that peace
and order may be secure. We VIII
gladly help them TO this end; but /
would solcmnly warn them to ro-
member the great truth that the only

show that they both can and viii

FIRST EXPOSITION
ON ASIA'S SOIL.

The japanese government has post
poned until 1917 the date OF the
great international exposition, the ac-
ton being taken so as to insure am
pie time in which TO prepare to make
the exposition all that It should be
made. The American commission
ers have visited Japan and the post
ponement will merely give ampler
opportunity for America to be- repre-
scented at the exposition. Not since
the first international exposition has
there been one Of greater Importance
than this will be, marking as It does
the tiltieth anniversary OF the as
cension to the throne OF the Emper-
or Of Japan, The extraordinary leap
to a foremost place among the ma
lions OF the world made by Japan
during this half century IS something
unparalleled in all previous history.
This exposition will fifty commcm-
crate and signalizo the giant pro-
gress that has been achieved II is
the first exposition of its kind that
has ever been held in Asia Tho
United States, because OF tho an
clent friendship between the two poo
pies, because each OF us fronts on
the Pacific, and because OF the grow
ing commercial relations between
this country and Asia, takes a pecu-
liar interest in seeing the exposition
made success in every way
take this opportunity publicly to
state my appreciation OF the way in
which in Japan, in Australia, in New
Zealand, and in all the state OF South
America, the battle fleet has been

press It's appreciation OF the abound
ing and generous hospitality shown

down through the hair to the very ends.
If one can look in the glass al the time,
it will be seen that by this method, in
stead of the bristles being only on the
surface of the strand. they penetrate
through to go about each individual hair
and thus it is that dust is dragged out.
'The long bristles are only for cleansing
and they should be put through several
times. This finishes the treatment for

When one-half of the scalp has been

has been done the short bristle brush is

A prOblem in neatneSS confronting
woman in warm weather is that of keep
ing her scalp in healthy condition with
out washing it too often Except Tor eX-
traordnary reasons, once month is sui
ficiently often for a shampoo because too
much water will distend the glands and
dry the hair until all beauty is gone
WHILE unless dust and perspration II the
head is ever wet with it, are removed
the pores and glands become clogged, and
the hair cannot grow.
AS most women have more time in the
evening than in the morning, the sham
poo is better given at that time and there
is no doubt but that another person can
do it more success lily than tho owner
of the hair
If one must cleanse the scalp unassist-
ed, begin by taking out the pins and
shaking down the hair. 1t should then
be parted in the middle and one-half
pinned up, to get it out of the way. The
remaining half is then divided and one of
these quarters is also pinned up.
Two Brushes and Combs Needed.
The brushes required are two, one with
long bristles, rather far apart, the other
| with close and short ones. A coarse and
f1ne-not too fine-comb should also be
used.
The long hair that is hanging loose
should be divided so that one small strand
at a time can be worked on. Through this
the coarse comb should be drawn, gently
pulling out any tangles, by always begin
ming the stroke just below the snarl. in
this manner the comb catches a few of
| the hairs and draws out the tangle by de
grees. When the comb is set above d
snarl and pulled down, it breaks the hair
| badly.
| After the knot is out the fine comb
should be used once or twice, very gently.
/ 1t should also be rubbed on the scalp.
| This will loosen any dust. Putting the
| fine comb through the locks twice will be
| enough Then one brush should be used,
/ and as the bristles will take out more
! dust than any number of combs can, the
| utmost care should be taken in applying
| the bristes. The long bristies are the
| first required. Ia brushing. the brush
| should be so held that only the tip of it
! comes directly OH the scalp at the part
| of the strand that has been combed. Still
| holding the brush at an angle TO use only
the tip bristles, it should be drawn firmly
