ET rs only in recent years that Amer
leans have taken the matter OF
dressing the hair into such serious
consideration, as to call upon his
tory and art for inspiration. But. once
awakened to the desirablllty of variety
as well as beauty in coiffures, 1t was
inevitable that American enterprise
should ransack the world for ideas
and win first place in the number and
beauty of the designs produced. Not
even the French excel us. For
Americans are not satisfied with arti-
flee that is too apparently artitice.
however attractive. They must have
artifice that is lost sight of in its
results. French hair-dressers, brought
TO this country. have to add to their
knowledge of methods. the American
finishing touch" and to learn also
TO cater to individual taste. They
must ring many changes on every
style.
Once launched new coiffure
taken up with truly American en-
thusiasm. and alasi before its course
is run, is even more than likely to be
exaggerated beyond all resemblance
TO the original beautiful model, and
TO loose its identity. This stage
marks it's finish. But the producers
of designs. (of whom there are very
few) are ready with something new
with the recurrence of each spring
and fall. And let no woman, however
beautiful, neglect to occasionally
change the style of her coiffure or for
get that her crowning glory has been
the admiration of men for ages.
The demure and lovely Flemish
coiffure came in with the spring and
soon became a furore with youthful
wearers. Smooth coils of hair ar
ranged across the back of the head
and over the ears, and uncovered

BURGESS SWIMS
over CHANNEL
GOES FROM ENGLAND TO FRANCE
IN 27 HOURS, IS
MINUTES.
COVERS SIXTY MILES
SOON AFTER START FOG SET.
TIES DOWN OVER CHANNEL
TIDE STRONG.
Western Newspaper Union News Service.

Western Newspaper Union News Service.
Deal, Eng.-Capt. Matthew Webb's
feat of swimming the English channel
thirty-six years ago was duplicated by
William T. Burgess, native of York
shire, but now a naturalized French
man. 1t was Burgess sixteenth at
tempt, he having first essayed the
task in 1904.
Burgess started from South Fore
land, Dover. landing at lie Chatelet. a
little village two miles east of Cape
Girls Nez, accomplishing the passage
in twenty-seven hours and thirty-five
minutes. A motorboat accompanied
the swimmer. 1t is estimated that
Burgess, owing to the Zigzag course
he was compelled to take because of
the battling tides, covered sixty miles
in crossing the twenty-mile channel.
Soon after the start dense fog set
tied down over the channel and no
further tidings of his progress were
received ashore until the announce
ment was made that he had accomp-
lished the task and landed in France.
Throughout the trip Burgess was
favored by calm sea, but a strong
tide was running and a severe strain
was put on the swimmer to get past
the Goodwin sands. Twice he was at
tackled by sickness and several times
was only held to his task by the
strongest will power and the encour-
aging words of the men in the boat.
He remained on French soil just long
enough to telegraph word of his sue
cess to his wife and partake of re-
freshments in a bathing box. Then he
returned to England by motorboat to
rest and sleep.
When he landed at Deal Burgess
with difficulty made his way through
the cheering throngs to a hotel.
A crowd soon assembled and many
persons plunged in and escorted the
plucky swimmer ashore, encouraging
him with cheers. When Burgess re-
gained his feet, he stumbled few
steps and then was seized, raised
shoulder high and carried to bath
house to the strains of "Marseillaise
sung wildly by the crowd.
For the trip across the channel Bur
CESS was well creased. He wore a
pair of goggles and a rubber bathing
cap. A party of eleven accompanied
him in motor-boat Soon after the
start the wind freshened, and the
swimmer had a nasty experience in a
lumpy sea. The water penetrated his
goggles and first affected the right
eye, though finally both eyes became
inflamed.
BY nightfall the wind had subsidized
altogether and there was an oily calm
on the water Burgess had recovered
and was swimming powerfully. He
was bright and CHEEKY, and from time
to time chatted with the men who
were in the boat.
The next flood tide sent him right
back toward England over the dread
full ridge shoal, where he noticed
the chill of shallow water. He asked
that soundings be taken, and it was
| found that the depth was twenty-one
| fcthoms. He concluded that it was
nearer England than France. The
swimmer Weidmann dived in and ac'
companied Burgess from 9 O'Clock un'
! til after midnight The night was
| ideal with a bright moon, but there
was haze on the water. Burgess took
hot milk, grapes and chocolate at half
| hour intervals.

Bloat in Cattle.

Now that alfalfa and other green
feed is coming on. bloat or tympany
of the rumen, will begin to deplete
the herds In spite of the &C
curate knowledge possessed by most
cattle owners in regard to this sub
lect, there are still those who will
turn hungry cattle from dry feed
into a field of young alfalfa, and
then wonder why they die so quickly,
4 good rule, followed by most
men when a green pasture is L
be used for the first time, is to let
the cattle i'll up on dry hay first,
and then. after the dew is OF, turn
the animals into the pasture for a
short time. better not more than a
half hour the first day.
During the first few days it is {
good policy to watch them closely.
A trocar near at hand at this time
will be found to be worth more thar
a hundred stored away in some vet
erinarian's case. If any animal
bloats seriously, do not hesitate to
tap, as usually time is wasted IN
giving medicine. The other animals
must be removed Immediately.
No farmer should be without a
trocar in this case, because even
though he be within reach of a vet
erinarian, time will ordinarily not
permit him to be of any use, as the
animal will likely die before the
veterinarian can reach the place.
A great variety of drugs has been
used to stop the bloating, with more
or less success. but usually in these
acute cases from green feed, the
trocar is the only remedy that can
be depended upon.
The location for tapping is not
nearly so difficult to find as some
suppose. Most anywhere between the
hip bone and the last rib on the LETT
side Will do, and 1t is well to keep
in mind that the organ you are
trying to tap ordinarily holds from
forty to sixty gallons. About half
way between these two points is
preferable.
