 London, May 4.-Major Waldorf Astof, member of the House of com- mons for Plymouth. writes the pre- face to a report which has dust been issued by q committee of Unionist members of parliament. appealing for . reform in the present methods of health administration in England.
 Tho responsibility of public health. he says. Is at present divided among . bewildering variety of government departments and local bodies. Health is, in fact, everybody's business in some particular aspect, and nohody's business as a general problem. Con- sequently, progress is fragrnentary and haphazard, and there is no steady momentum of development such as a definite Ministry of Health would supply. scandalou4 delays have oc- cured in dealing with problems of admitted urgency"
 He criticizes also the provisions in England for securing industrial health among factory workers The experimental science of industrial fatigue" he says, is far less appre- ciated in English factories than in those of American and Germany.

In France to warrants sealed with the

thrown into prison or exiled. The first

became one Of the popular terrors Of

lettres de cachet were issued during
the reign Of Louis XIV. and $1,000 dur.
ing the reign Of Louis XIV. In many
cases these terrible documents were
secretly sold and used as a source Of

signed In blank, and the holder Of one

The kitchen is the real workshop Of

has to do with preparing food for the

away. The old fashioned kitchens
never took into account economy Of
steps and time, but today this is al
ways done. There is logical order
for the arrangement of the equipment.
Things that belong to each process
should be together, within the reach
of the worker. The icebox, cold pan
try, kitchen cabinet, stove and serving
table are used together and should be
In a close continuous lie. This Is the
food preparation side Of the equip
ment. For the cleaning up Of the same
economy should be practiced. The sink
should be near the china closet or In

straight for clearing up. Always have
plenty of table room near the sink. A

Aluminium and Oxygen.

Aluminium is In many ways a won

world most Of 1t is oxidized and turned
to clay. Its avidity for oxygen Is one
of its most salient characteristics. 1t IL

rectly, In air, but always and only
through a veil Of superficial oxide
which forms on its free surface with
marvellous rapidity. 1t is stated that II

oxygen of the air runs in as fast as the
scale is peeled of and keeps close be-
hind the knife blade.
If 1t were not for this superficial
scale Of oxide, which acts as a barrier
to further action. the metal would burn
up or defagrate In air. The large
amount Of heat developed by thermit.

ness to the activity Of the Oxldizing
