Don't use prepared shampoos or anything else, that contains too' much alkali. This dries the scalp, makes the hair brittle, and is .very harm- ful. Just plain mulsified cocoanut oil €which is pure and entirely greaseless), is much better than any- thing else you can use for shampoo ing, as this can't possibly injure the hair. : r fimply moisten vour hair with wa- ter and rub it in. One or two tea- spoonfuls will make au abundance of rich, creamy lather, and cleanses the hair and scalp thoroughly. The la- ther rinses out easily. and removes every particle of dust, Wirt. dandruff and excessive oil. The hair dries quickly and evenly, and it leaves it fine and silky, bright, fluffy and easy to manage. You can get mulsified cocoanut oil at most any drug store.

(Contributed by Ontarte Department of Agriculture, Toronto.) HE well is the usual source of the farm water supply, and a good well, that is, one | which supplies plenty of pure fresh and wholesome water th. | year round is certainly one of the most essential and valuable assets of the farm. Without it no man could live there for long, to say nothing about bringing up a healthy family, or building up an efficient dairy herd. The well must be there first and last and all the time, and we cannot con- | ceive of an intelligent man buying a farm without a good well if he in- | tended to live on it and make it pay dividends. Fortunately, most of Ontario's farms are well suppited with water, in fact it is a rare thing to find a farm where it could not be secured { In suMclent quantities by drilling to reasonable depths. The supply, there- fo will probably never cause us | py serious worry, but Judging by a ( recent report on analysis of many {| well waters from this Province one seems Justified in concluding that Pthere ts still need for education of | the rural public in regard to the protection and care of the farm well. { The following suggestions will be found helpful to any farmer desir- ous of making his water supply safe | against possible underground and | surfaco contamination. { = The first step in the solution of { this problen of 'purer water supply | is the locaiion'éf the well. . This | should be by all means on ground | higher than any.source of contamin- | ation such as barnyard, cesspool, or | outside privy. If there should be no | choice in location, and this cannot | be done, then the weil shoyld be &ept ga cconsiderable distance trom | such contaminations, at least 100 {feet in clay, and 200 feet or more | in sandy sous, and the cribbing and | top of the well specially protected | as detailed later against the entrance of any seepage and surface washings. In the second place the cribbing for at least 10 feet below the surface should be made impervio:s to water 80 that any comtamination in solu- tion reaching the well would have to pass down .through this extra depth of soil before getting into the well, when in all Probabality it would be taken up by the soil and never reach the well water. This may be done in case of an old well by put- ting a wall of puddied clay 1 foot thick and 10 feet deep around the well cribbing, and in case of a new- 1y-dug well, or recribbing an old one, by using large concrete tile for the cribbing and setting the Joints thor- oughly in rich cement. Before the tile are placed In the well the out- sides should bé washed with pure cement plaster in order to fili up ail pbres and .nake the tile absélutely pimpervious to soil waters. Thirdly, the cribbing should be extended at least one foot above the ground level and the soil banked up to the_top of it to provide good surface drainage away from the well, Fourthly, the - well should be provided with a strong and tight-fitting cover made of heavy plank cr concrete so that it will al- ways be safe for man and beast and proof against the entrance of dirt, small animals like frogs, etc. Even better still the pump may be placed over a shallow dry well to one side and the top of the real weil made absolutely tight. by a concrete cover, in this case the well should be ven- tilated by putting a small iron pipe, with the exposed end turning down- wards, through the top or cover. And, fiftKly, the stock should not be al- lowed to tramp about close to the well, What has been said refers chiefly to aug wells, but even the drilled or driven wells should be well drained and pretected at the top, for other- "Wise contamination may work down alopg the well casing and reach the Water, éspecially if the casing is not tightly driven into the rock below. Attention to such matters of con- sttuction and protection of the farm well as I have detailed and an occa~ sional pumping out and, cleansing of the well with a little lime will assure & pure and wholesome water supply. --R.

The fine old English fighting spirit which rings through this passage must have ap- pealed to bluff King Hal, and an act of Parliament was duly passed mak- | ing the "newe and craftye" games illegal, and rendering players there- of liable to a penalty for each offence of 6s. 8d.--a considerable Sum in those days. .

Dr. Arlington, headmaster of Eton, recently told a meeting that the ex- periment of letting boys at the col- lege write with the left hand to de- velop the right side of the brain was hurriedly discontinued when an em- inent scientist 'stated that if they developed both sides-of the brain at once they became idiots. Sir James Crichdpn=Browne, the famous mental specialist, has given his views un "this Statement as follows: "Dr. Arlington has acted wisely in putting a stop to a foolish experiv ment at Bion which- would neved "have Been sanctioned by any one with a little sound physiological knowledge. "The order to use the left hand equally with the right has, I believe, been all but universally evaded. Had it been observed only mischief would have been done.
