Advantages of Athletics.

Business principles and self-reliance can be learned in no better way than by actual management of the financial and travelling affairs of athletic or. ganizations. It is the only way open to the college man for acquiring such experience and avoiding the often heard criticism of college graduates that they don't know how to take care of themselves. They will not learn 1t by being kept in leading strings nor by being continually taken care of.

So long ago as 1899 Dr. Voeltzkow noticed that unmatched Madagascar crocodiles uttered Q cry from the egg at considerable depth and that any shock, as heavy tread near the egg. caused the baby crocodile to produce this sound with the mouth closed. as we produce hiccough sounds. In this way they inform the female crocodile, when she visits tho nest, that they want her aid, where. upon she scrapes the sand away and they emerge.

Advantages of Tea.

Both the French and German troops are being supplied with tea in the trenches, perhaps because it is easier to- make or easier to get, or perhaps for some more profoundly scientific reason. Tea Is a thinner liquid and betetr for quenching thirst Gas every cyclist and pedestrian knows) and for the same reason it keeps hot longer than coffee, which is an important consideration in the trenches. No doubt the French and Germans will get to like tea, and both nations may be- come large tea users after the war. The effect on both the tea and coffee markets would be considerable. At present France and Germany, with a combined population of over a Hundred millions. are negligible as tea consum- CTS. After the war a big increased demand may raise the price of tea. The corresponding decline in the de- mand for coffee may mean that there will be enough genuine Mocha to go round among thoge of us who remain faithful Cor abaEdoned> coffee bidders. --MancheSter Guardian.

FALLING HAIR AND
 ITCHING SCALP
Surely Cease When You Use Parisiau Saee-Makes the Hair Soft
 and Fluffy.

Now that Parisian Sage-a scientific preparation that supplies every hair and scalp need-can be had at any drug or toilet counter, at small ex- pense, 1t is certainly needless to have thin, brittle matted, stringy or faded hair. No matter how unsightly the hair, how badly it is falling, or how much dandruff, Parisian Sage rubbed into the scalp and through the hair, is all that is needed. Every trace of dan druff is removed with one application, the hair roots are nourished and stimu- lated to grow new hair, itching scalp and falling hair cease-the hair be- comes soft fluffy, abundant and radi- ant with life and beauty.
 Parisian Sage is surely one of the most pleasant, invigorating and re- freshing hair tonics. a delicately per fumed liquid that proves it's goodness the first time it is used.
 Start now to improve and beautify the hair by using Partisan Sage. The Lee 6 Osgood Co. can supply you. It is easily used at home, and is as bene- ficial as it is inexpensive.
