The United ICingdoin embargo
against Canadian cattle is apparently
to be removed, bringing to a success-
ful conclusion thirty years of effort
and appeal on the part of Canadian
governments and Dominion agricul-
turists.
The British House, without division,
passed a resolution in favor of the re-
moval of the Canadiaat cattle embargo
to permit the introduction into Eng-
land of store cattle, to be pastured and
fattened there, whereas up to the pre-

Causes of Baldness.
Some interesting views on the
causes of baldness have been put for-

concludes that there are three rea-

Too much heat, says Dr. Guelpha,
increases the acids in the blood, and
consequently in the perspiration. This
is still more 'harmful to the hair, for
it quickens the supply of sebum, which
thickens' round the roots and clogs
them. This is the reason why fat men
are more addicted to baldness than
diose who are thin.
Dr. Guelpha declares that if nien

German Trade With England.
In the last three months, according
to "The Daily Mail" of Loudon, the
Germans have sent daily to the Lan-

and It is estimated that since May 1
