The best thing dor steady use Is just ordinary mulsitied cocoanut oil {which is pure and gréaseless), and ~i8 better than anything else you can use. One or two teaspoonfuls will cleanse the hair and scalp thorough- ly. Simply moisten the hair with water and rub it in. It makes an abundance of rich, éreamy lather, which rinses ont easily, removing every particle of dust, dirt, dandruff and excessive ofl. The hair dries quickly and evenly, and it leaves the sealp soft, and the hair fine and silky, bright, lpstrous, fluffy and easy to manage.

' This was succeed. ed by the Northern Hotel, which still stands as a part of the Walton House The stone part was built about 120 vears ago by Thomas Angel, uncle of Mrs. S. D. Johnston, for a residence The Northern was built about 100 years ago by Thomas Benjamin, who, with 'his son, Vin Benjamin, were proprietors for several years, after- wards -selling it to Archie Marshall. and the name was then changed to the Marshall House. It was again sold to Michael Halpm, and in 1849 it was purchased by Stephen Decatur Jolin- ston, who was one of the first land- lords of the river to make u specialty of summer visitors, He made exten- sive improvements, changing from a two-story to three-story structure and building an annex to comect the old and naming it the fzaac Walton, This name later came to be "synonymous with the sportsmans' idea of an ideal hostelry. Mr. Johnston was proprietor of the hatel for twenty years, and since that tithe it has changed hands . many times, having been closed. for frequent intervals for the last few years ,and was sold at public auction on Jan, 12, Di It is indeed gratifying to note that renewed interest 'is being taken in this, one of the landmarks of the north country, and the preparations which: have been made for the comfort and pleasure of the guests will surely make the place a popular otve, ds it has been in days of old. Notwith- standing the many changes the years have wade, the. fishing i in the St. Law- rence remains the 'same, and the guides have been reporting excéption= ally good catches in May and Jung, With the history this building, the history of the community . very closely associated, for long before the railroads were built in. the north country, the regular steamship lines were established and brought. many men of distinction to the village, who were attracted hy the beautiful scen ery. The shipbuilding industry also brought many men of prominnece here, and many of them became per- manént summer residents, building *he many beautiful summer homes, Among the first of these visitors was one of the guests of the Walton, Charles G. Emery, who in later years built his beautiful home on Calumet Island. SD.

We agree with them in the view that food'is of the first importance to our armies and, to our allies. But we submit that the Gov- ernment, in taking experienced men from the land, is losing more in food power. than it is gaining in man power, The gain in men will not be sufficient to make up for the loss of food." So said Peter McArthur, farmer- author; who participated in the Ot- tawa delegation that visited the Pre- mier to ask for "2emption for the farmers. Continuing, Mr. McArthur said: -- "An experienced farmer 1s equal to only one French, British or American soldier on the firing line, On the Canadian farm he is equal to at least 'ten men on European farms.' In Ekfrid Township, Middlesex County, where M®. McArthur resides, there was one m&n to every 100 acres of land, later one man to every 160 acres, and when the new Military 4 ¥ toll of young farmers there would be one mran for every 200 acres, t She gained the title | teacher son, Buffalo, mother, deen street.
