explanation by ir William Bull.
The explanation was brief. The
government knew the name of the
German company holding the lease,
1T knew moreover that the rent was
about five shillings six pence .AfeeR;
that steps had been taken to cancel
this document; that for some weeks
British troops had been on the Is
land. Whether Prince Butcher and
family have moved from the Manor
house was not made clear.
The popular cutlery against the
prince, In the opinion of the London
press generally, is unjustified; but
the Times remarks rather sarcastic

little more about the Germany com

THE HAIR AND scALP-pART VII.

AS we have explained previously the
blood vessels that feed the hair roots
provide all that is required for hair
growth; oil is obtained from the oil
glands, and normal, healthy scalp needs
no tonic or other applications save those
necessary for cleanliness. But an abso-
lutely normal, healthy scalp is rare. so
rare that 1t need hardly be taken into con-
sideration In this connection.
Many people have an over-dry scalp; in
some cases the oil glands secrete hardly
at all, and it Is necessary that the scalp
should have some application to make up
for this deficiency. The oils most COM
monty used for a dry scalp are vaseline
and preparations containing castor OIL
Remember that a hair tonic has no virtue
put on the hair; 1t should be applied to
the scalp. In the case of oily prepara-
tions 1t Is particularly necessary that the
scalp alone should be treated for oil on
the hair is not pleasant, while the scalp
needs 1t. A medicine dropper provides an
economical and convenient method of ap-
plying hair tonics.
An oily scalp is often improved by the
application of tonic that will act as an
astringent, reducing the supply of the oil
glands and mitigating the effect of too
much oil on the scalp. Most tonics de-
signed for this trouble have a good pro-
portion of alcohol.
For dandrunf there are many specifics.
While cleanliness is the first requisite in
removing this trouble, 1t should be re-
membered that dandruff Is really dis
ease, form of bacteria, and is often
very stubborn of cure. This condition
can often be helped by some scalp appli-
cation.
A torpid scalp that is pushing scanty.
weak hair needs invigorating Tonics for
this purpose contain capsicum alcohol
and catharides, and certain preparations
Of petroleum have proved most beneficial
In assisting hair growth. Camphor an
other favorite Ingredient in a stimulating
tonic, will sometimes tend to making tho
hair curly on account of its resinous quail
tiles.
Choose the tonic that your hair needs
and use It with the scalp massage move-
lnents given in an earlier portion of this
lesson, and the benefit will be twofold.

WORTH Will E

1t is easy enough to be pleasant
When life flows by like song,
But the man worth while is the one who will smile
When everything goes "dead wrong"
For the test Of the heart Is trouble,
And 1t always with the years,
And the smile that is worth the praise Of earth
Is the smile that shines through tears.
1t is easy enough to be prudent
When nothing temps you to stray,
When, without within, voice of sin
Is Turing your soul away.
But it's only a negative virtue,
Until it is tried by fire.
And the life that is worth the honor of earth
Is the that ressts desire!
BY the cynic, the sad, the fallen
Who had strength for the strife,
The worlds highway is numbered to- day
They make up the items Of life.
But the virtue that conquers passion
And the that hides in smile
lit is these that worth the homage of EARTH

thinking; but, as a matter Of fact, most
Of them are simply luck.
Curious things happen A ball fell
into a tin can, and, 1t being impossible
to get It out In time, can and all were
thrown to the baseman. Another ball
hit the end of a nail driven through
the opposite side Of fence and could
not be got down until all the runners
scored.

The shortest two Dagger known was
when the ball grazed the bat, shot up
q few feet and fell In front Of the
plate. AS the catcher reached for the
twirling ball it glanced from his glove
and bounded back to the stand, and
the batter made second easily.
A center fielder saw a NIT In the
way Of the shortstop and walked about
sixty feet in to move It out Of the way
when he heard the crack Of the bat
and saw hot ball coming straight at
him. He could do nothing but try to
catch 1t and did to his surprise. But
he was given credit by the crowd for
being great student Of batters.-Ar-

HARDNESS OF WATER.
Solid Streams at High Velocity Are ~
Rioid as Iron.

Solid Streams at High Velocity Are ~
Rigid ss Iron.
In the American Magazine contrib
utor gives a most interesting descrip-
ton of the resisting power Of. water.
He says that a solid stream Of water
shot out Of hose at tremendous We
locity is just as powerful and destruc-
tive as q rod of iron. An extract from
the article giving an idea Of the hard
ness and resisting power Of water fol-
lows:
Here is a fact which is probably
novel to the average man who has not
spent much of his life thinking about
motor speed boats. This is what we
may call the hardness Of the water
when a boat is running at speed.
Water at fifty miles an hour is not the
limpid liquid we are accustomed to
battle in. II you put your arm over
board from a hydroplane running at
fifty miles an hour and strike wave
crest the probability is that you will
break your arm or wrist, because at
that speed the water has not time to
give, not time even to change shape,
and striking it is like striking so much
metal.
.In the great hydraulic mining noz-
zles, where q stream Of water under
enormous head Is used to wash down
hillsides, q swordsman. in attempting
to cut into one Of these streams, will
shatter the sword without being able
to penetrate the water. The stream is
like bar of iron. The fact that water
at relative speed is SO hard-Or that its
inertia is so great, to be little more
accurate-is the reason why skipping
stone travels over the surface and Is
the reason why a hydroplane boat
slides over the surface instead Of plow-
ing its way through.
1.-THE picture we must have in our
minds, then. Of speed boat is that she
is travelling not In water, as we or
dinarily understand 1t, but over the
surface Of semisolid, very much as
sled travels over snow"
