RISK IN GETTING EVIDENCE,

Only those who are directly con. nected with the task of securing evil dence in connection with the violation of law. and the many twists and turns which are open to the accused in set ting up a defense or explaining away certain situations, can fully appreciate the necessity of the New York police going as far as they did in the plot of the bomb b-throwers.
 Even though Former Chief Devery of the metropolitan police force should be thoroughly acquainted with the re- quirements when dealing with men of such criminal class, and, of course is, there may be ground aside from his to be expected opposition for his criticism of the recent action when he declares that the police allowed the matter to go too far when they per- mitted bombs not only to be taken into the cathedral, but actually al- lowed them to be lighted before mak- ing the arrests. This of course en- dangered the lives of the many people who were there at the time, and also meant the taking of a tremendous risk when it is considered what damage might have been done to the edifice in case there was the least slip of the plans.
 The police demonstrated that the en- tire affair was carefully planned and carried out even though it had in tensely dramatic features. Not a cog slipped and it is therefore impossible to claim that every safeguard was not taken for insuring the safety of lives and property. In that case all is well and the culprits were caught red handed. The police were dealing with desperate men and dangerous explo- sives and they took the required chances, but it is question whether the same perfect results could be guar anteed in all such cases

JAPANESE PARASOLS.

Some of the richest have dark bord- CTS, with here and there a delicate bit of hand embroidery in gold. Again, odd looking velvet birds are appliqued over the inside surface of the parasol. This idea is effective when developed in orange and blue tones. Handles are extremely long and in most in stances harmoniZe in color and design with the ferrule end

 Whatever the result may be, 1t can not fail to direct greater attention to the dangers of those very conditions which the principal was endeavoring to overcome. It should bring negli- gent parents to a realization of their responsibilities and unless they so look upon the matter. without permitting the action of the principal in exceed ing his authority to overshadow the vital point at stake, they will be in f1icting the greatest injury upon them selves and their children.

NEW ENGLAND RURAL PROGRESS

It remains to be seen what the New England Federation for Rural Pro- Sress will do for this section of the country. There can be no question but what there is plenty of opportu- nifty for much improvement along the lines which are indicated by it's name Prof. Carver at the Boston meeting declared that the need of the New England states is a new crop of pio- neers in order to get better crops out of their land .and this may be true but the thing is to get the pioneers or to bring the New England people to a realization of their advantages and the possibilities with which they are blessed but of which they are not getting the full benefit.
 Action is what is needed and of course action Is what might be ex- pected from pioneers. With the spirit and go-to-itiveness of the early set tiers applied to the development of the agricultural interests of these states much better results could be expected That nearly two-thirds of the tillable land remains unimproved is perhaps one of the best indications of the needs of new crop of pioneers.
 If this new organization can awaken New Englanders to a realization of their situation, if it can inspire a greater interest in the proper development of the land and in the advantage of the markets, it will materially aid the forces which are and have been for some time at work on this very same problem. There are plenty of examples of what can be done in and by New Englanders with New England condi- tions and with the proper study of the matter together with the expert advice to be had a great many more can do the same. The aim of the federation is in the right direction

Alcohol applied several times a week to the scalp will cure dandruff. If you find this makes the scalp and hair too dry, add six teaspoonsfuls of castor eoil to one pint of alcohol. No one should neglect curing dandruff once it has appeared. If allowed to continue the hair will become very thin and badness may result. It is very necessary to keep the scalp clean while it is thus diseased. Dandruff is infectious, so be very careful that no one uses your comb and brush, or wears your hat. These are the things that usually spread the disease.
