Remedy For Bad Roads.

The remedy for bad roads, it
seems to me, lies wholly with the
men who own property along
them. Elect no man to the posi-
ton of overseer who does not un'
derstand how to make good roads
out of poor ones. If there is not
such a man in your neighbor.
hood, hire one from outside This
is, ninety-nine times out of a hun
bred, the wisest thing to do, for
the chances are that there is no
man in the neighborhood who has
practical experience enough to
make it safe to trust the work to
him, says Eben E. Rexford in the
Outing Magazine for June. He
may have good sense, good judg'
ment and all that-in Short there
may be the making of a good
road builder in him-but what
you need is a man who is a good
road builder, a man who has got
the trade already learned. Ir
other words, you can't afford Il
wait for home talent to develop, i
the man who has developed hi:
ability in that direction is pro
durable. Have your road tai
paid in cash. Secure a skilled
man, and let him assume respOn
sibility for the work he under
takes. If you do this, you stan'
in a fair way to solve the prob
lem of good roads.

Mr.. Wickliffe has certainly a
good seat:
I'm the biennial lottery for the
selection of seats, Robert Wick
life, the baby member OF the
| Louisiana delegation, was the
first man to have his name drawn
from the box. He took his seat
near Champ Clark, the Demo
cratic leader, in the central part
of the hall.
Representative Pujo got his
name called in time to select q
seat right in front of the new
member. Mr.. Estopinal got an
end seat in the second row, to
one side of the center, within
easy hailing distance OF the
Speaker. Mr.. Broussard' al,
ways lucky, was among the last
to have a chance to make a Sc
lection, but the front seat, right
under the eye of the Speaker
even if a little to the right OF the
direct front, had been overlook
ed. He pounced upon it witt
ardOr and thereby got one OF th'
: best in the House.

Questions Relating to the Schools.

VuSotlVuo NSNhh6 w wv
In the following letter State
Superintendent Harris has an
swered a number of questions OF
general interest to the school
teachers and school patrons OF
Louisiana:
81. Can a man act as princi.
pal and superintendent and draw
salary for both, and still get a
commission on funds diSbursed?"
There is nothing in the law
with reference to the question of
mans holding the position OF
principal and at the same time OF
parish superintendent; but the
State Board of Education passed
a resolution a few years ago, en-
dorsing a superintendent occu-
plying the position of principal OF
the high school of his parish in
the event the parish was small
and the funds inadequate to JUS
tify a parish board in paying a
good salary to a man to devote
his whole time to the office OF
superintendent. Under the pres
ent law, the superintendent, act
ing as treasurer of the school
funds, is not entitled 70 any COM
missions on the moneys disburs-
ed.
SO. Does a superintendent re:
ceive his salary from funds ap:
propriated by the Police jury
The superintendent salary is
paid out of the current school
( funds, it being immaterial from
what sources the money is de-
rived.
: IS. Are questions of gradual
l ing classes prepared by the
!. teachers of the same or by the
Board of Education?"
This is a question coming un
4 der the jurisdiction of the parish
n board. Uuually each teacher
y prepares the questions for hel
: classes, but the superintendent
Z can prepare the questions if HI
I desires to do so.
r "A. Is there a uniform sys
d TEN of marking by teachers il
n the schools os the State?"
J, There is no such system. Eacl
|. school establishes it's own regu
# lations governing this question
T. 5. is it better generally TO
principals of schools to teacl
mathematics and Latin?"
l. This would depend entirely up
n on the conditions existing in eacl
q school. If the principal wer
o better prepared to teach thes
l. subjects, and if his assistant
4 were better prepared to teac
r other subjects, such plan woul
u certainly be the best one.

!. CARE OF THE HAIR


=" HE care of the hair is great
and important subject, since
the care varies with the indi-
~ vidual. The condition of the
hair is often an index 10 the health. Ia
it becomes thin, dry, and falls out, as 4
general thing the person needs a tonic,
the health is below par.
1t is said that the life of hair IS
from two TO six years. and that one can
lose on all average fifty to sixty hairs a
day. That ] think is large number
Anxiety in regard to the hair is aroused
when il commences to fall out The
average man lives in terror OF becoming
bald. a fate that usually ovcrtakes him.
A great German authority writing re-
Gently on the subject OF badness, says
that it can be combattcd successfully If
treatment is begun as soon as the hair
is seen to begin to fall.
Preventing Badness
frequent shampooing and rubbing
the head is the best preventive OF bald
ness" He even recommends daily
shampooing with soap and hot water,
This is to be followed by an applica-,
tion of one to one thousand solution OF
bichloridc of mercury. When tins
eyaporatcs the scalp IS rubbed with a
one to four hundred solution of thymol
or naphthol in alcohol, after which nc
uses an ointment of one part OF salIcylic
acid, two Of tincture of benzo1n and
fifty of vaselinc, which is rubbed into
the roots of the hair. In obstinate cases

tlons of tar linimcnt, which is removed
by soap ten minutes later.
Shampooine
You observe that our great German
authority recommends daily shampoolng.
Once month, most hair -drcSSers will
tell you A better guide is the condi-
ton of the hair. If il becomes oily and
sticky. it should be shampoocd at once
Most hair needs shampooing oftcncr
than four weeks. If the hair is dirty
the hair folliclcs are stopped up. the
nourishmcnt of the hair is impaired and
it will fall out The hair gets dirty the
same as 4 garment How quickly this
can occur is shown by white hair, which
has TO be frequently washed to look
properly cared for,
The basis Of most of the shampoos
recommended for the hair is an egg.
Some use only the white Of the egg
others claim that the yolk is better, as
its chemical constituents are especially
needed by the hair The egg should be
beaten up in a cupful of water, to which
has been added a tcaspoonful of green
soap and tcaspoonful of alcohol or
cologne This can be poured over the
hair and rubbed into the scalp with the
fingers.
Tho Use Of a Brush
1t is better yet to use brush which
comes for shampooing or toothbrush
