THE BEST TREATMENT FOR
ITCHING SCALPS, DANDRUFF
AND FALLING HAIR

To allay itching and irritation Of the
scalp, prevent dry, thin and falling
hair, remove crusts, scales and dan
druff, and promote the growth and
beauty Of the hair, the following spe-
cial treatment is most effective, agree
able and economical. On retiring,
comb the hair out straight all around,
then begin at the side and make a
parting, gently rubbing Cuticura Oint-
ment into the parting with a bit Of
soft flannel held over the end Of the
finger. Anoint additional partings
about half an inch apart until the
whole scalp has been treated, the pur-
pose being to get the Cuticura ONT
ment on the scalp skin rather than on
the hair. 1t is well to place light
covering over the hair to protect the
pillow from possible stain. The next
morning, shampoo with Cuticura Soap
and hot water. Shampoos alone may
be used as often as agreeable, but
once or twice a month is generally
sufficient for this special treatment
for women's hair.

DRAG CORN IN DRY WEATHER
Implement Can Be Constructed Out Of
Old Mower Wheel a. Shown In
Illustration Herewith.

II you will take an old mower wheel
to the blacksmith shop and have two
wings, as described below, bolted to
It. you will have one of the best dry
weather plows you have ever used in
your corn field, writes @. W. Williams
OF Polk county, Wisconsin, in the
Farmers Mail and Breeze. Take two
old worn out 14-inch pillow shares,
have them cut of square at each end,
bent little. as shown in cut, and the
wings bolted on tight and solid with
the thin edge OF the share down. To
make them extra secure let the smith
take two pieces Of old buggy springs
and put a brace from the wheel to
near the point Of the wing.
Theae wings should be little wider
than the wheel-that is, they should
extend about an inch wider on each
side than the wheel. This gathers the
clods all in and carries them back, or
holds them until the wheel gets on
them and grinds them up. This ar
rangement leaves no clods piled up

HANDLE MONEY AND HATE III
Peculiar STATE Of Mind That Comes
Of Employees Of the Most Noted
Gambling Resort.

Probably no one hates the sight of
money as do the croupiers at Monte
Carlo, through whose hands thousands
and thousands of pounds pass every
year.
1t is not everyone who can be a
croupier. lingering and counting
money at the casino requires special
training, and, accordingly, there is a
school of croupiers in Monaco. Here
there are tables similar to those used
in the gambling rooms, and each
scholar is taught by a master"
how to become a croupier.
The masters" and the scholars"
personate players, while one scholar"
takes the part of croupier. The money
used Is sham, metal discS being sub
stituted for coins, and slips of paper
for bank notes. Within a given time
the croupier-scholar must calculate
and pay out the winning stakes, and
be must make no mistakes. He has
to learn how to pitch money from
one end of the table to a precise spot
at the other end, and good many
other things.
When a scholar" Is passed as per
feet he enters the service of the
casino under an agreement which
stipulates that he can be dismissed
at a moments notice without any
reason being given him.-London Tit
