EDUCATIONAL NEED OF THE AGE

DR. Edmund j. James, president OF
the University OF Illinois is authority
for the statement that there Is q
greater demand for teachers Of agri-
culture than the universities and agri-
cultural colleges can supply" He also
declares that there Is an equal demand
for educated engineers and chemists"
This condition affords an encouraging
indication Of the drift Of popular edu-

been attained through the apparent

EXCLUSION or IMMIGRANTS.

The total number OF immigrants eN-
cluded from this country. during the
fiscal year ending June 90 1909. was
about 10000, and a similar number was
excluded the preceding year, and 1900
the year before that so that within
three years more than $4,000 immigrants
have been turned back from our shores
A still greater number is every year

panies. II seems that in 1907 alone
5000 persons were excluded by the inn

Facts About Woman's ''Glory"

When woman's hair is in
healthy condition, it is supposed to
grow about eight inches year,
and the life of a single hair is
from two to six years. Thus old
hair is constantly being replaced
by new, and it is obvious that
there is some falling of the hair
Ievery day.
Yet many women frequently fail
to note that this natural change
is going on constantly; and be-
cause the hair comes out with
brush and comb they complain of
failing hair" and interchange
views of the subject of tonics.
Most scalps have a certain hair
habit; they develop a fixed amount
of hair annually. The amount is
determined by conditions of
health, and probably by inherited
tendencies. Thus one woman will
have an enormous amount of hair
from youth to age, while another
lives in fear of badness. The
first has her hair thinned out reg
|ularly; the second vainly spends
her days and dollars to outwit ma
ture.
When by artificial means the
hair is stimulated, the increased
growth continues only while the
treatment lasts; hair SO developed
is weak, brittle and short-lived.

The Gray Squirrels were the

This winter the young daughter
Of the family was ready to come
out in society, so they wished to
give grand party for her.
They had been saving nuts all
the fall, so they could have a
splendid feast. But Miss Squirrel
had set her heart on serving al
monds at this party. and they had
none. All the people who came
into the park with uuts for the
squirrels had peanuts-always
peanuts. For several days the
whole family had been securing
the park on the lookout for al
monds, with no success.
Now there happened to be in
the park dashing, frisky young
squirrel who mad admired this
belle of squirreldom for many
but he was not invited to
the party. He and Mr.. Gray
Squirrel had had a quarrel last
summer over a bag of nuts, and
none of the family would speak
to him.
He had heard some chattering
gossip about Miss Squirrels dis
tress over the lack of almonds,
and he was sorry, because he was
a kind-hearted chap. He was
frisking about among the benches,
when an old gentleman came
along and sat down. This man
