' The imtbed is prepared by packing fresh manure from the horse barn very evenly and firmly In the pit and covering with six inches of rich eon. The Manure must not have heated or coined, lett it Is best to be heating when used, and should be forked over a few tiMee to get the beat even all through before being packed in the pit.

Son fov hotbeds requiree a lot of ha- unts irt it, and it ehould be fairly rich. Goldframes are constructed the same tte hotbeds except that no pit is pro- vided, as no manure ts ueed for heat- ing. The heat comes from the sun - Belt. The hotbed to start the plants and the coldfraiete to grow and harden them ready to set out makes an ideal comblitation. It is trapoesible to grow plante to a. large eize in a hotbed. Two transplaattings Are Utter than One. Where transplanting is done tetiee, the first time the plants shotild be get two indheti apart, and three Or four the eecond gine, according to growth and tbe thne to elapse before set out into the garden.

Fully aware of the elleretY'a MOOda and morals -if I may so express my- self -the Bettish have simply taken over under their control ancl at their eervice not only, like all the Allies, the German Civil Service and other State organleations, but. the private capac- itieeeancl efficiencies crf the vanquished, All through the British zone of oe- cupation an Allied officer, as was 'the case with the writer of these lines, i$ practicaly in the hands of Germ= clerks for billeting, information, and 'all other commodities, and they are zealotennuourteaus, versect in all langnageni; eager to serve under any rule, prone to curb -under any yoke, and proud ot the demination. Thus the British authorities, with tactfal and cold comprehension and a sort. 01 distant eontaet, are using the Huns as their lamina not their slaves, es the higher domesticity of the household: But if the British naturally behave as gentlemen, even towards the ban- dits who stew 15,000 of their clviliens on sea and 6,000 on land -that is to say, if.they are neither offensive nor obtrusive in the slightest degree ver- sus the eonquered-yet do they lose no opportunity of bringing home suit- atantially to the Gerraan the hard fact that they are victors. As you know, the German papers are all published with this notice over the tine: "Erscheint mit Erlaubnia der brine- chen mIlitarischen Behorde" (Issped by permission of the British Military Command). Oh, John Bull, My friend, what a revanehe! A PLOT THAT FAILVD. Now, whilst I was here in Cologne, the venerable and stately Kolnisehe Zeitung, the Times of former GennanY, tried to work out a little pfeee of tom- foolery against the Freneb, accerding to the Instructions of the German propaganda, which is more active than ever, and always in the same old hands. The device was to piratse up the British occupation to the detrl- Went of the French. A Fresno!' Ally is proud to state that on the Very rao- bunt when the number of the paper e appeared the editor of the Kolnische was summoned to the Britten G.H.Q„ and simply told that "that Would not do," and that the paper would have to be suppressed for a week, The jolly old 13oehe took it for a vague warning, and was totally flabbergasted (as- tounded) to find on the next morning that his august paper was silnpreitsed for a week. Other slight but trenchant hints an, to their present conditions are also given to the Huns in the moat remote and direct manner, such as posters on the walls, printed in Engltsh, whieh all the German middle class tan read: "The eausea of the Germani defeat: a public leeture by Captain X, of the British eteff, "and poster% poeters all teeer the town in English, pointing to the YatT.G.A. ,and to all sorts of per- Manefit pleasurable perforraanees of the diteltish, sueh as the daily British theatricals for the lads.

It is perfectly obvious that for any- thing in the nature of a regular Trans- atlantic passenger service, tho aircraft employed must be of such a type that if their englecti break doWp, Or if anything else compels them to stop their journey, the safety of the crew and passexIgere is aesured. Such 'safety /algid be assUred by the use of big flying boats, but even, the biggest flyieg boats of to -day would. be extraordinarily uncomfortable if com- pelled t alight in an ordinary Atlantic swell, and One doubts whether they would hold tottetber for more than a very sheet time ih anything like real- ly bad wettthen. Neverthless, it may be possible in the time to come to build flying boats a such enormous size that, if compelled to descend on the water, they would be capable of riding Out even an Atlantle sale. It must, however, be some years at any tete before boats of nu:eh a size can be built, for they would cost many tens of thousands of pounds to build. and it hardly ,eeems likely thatany of the aircraft firms of to -day would be justified in going to the 'expense 01 buildine suck vessels experimentally. There remains then the airship. It is fairly well-known that a German air- ship made a trip from. the Balkans to Central Africa and back th November, 1917, which was equal in length to a voyage from Eugland to New York and back. It is true that he had not to contend with bad weather and that if had met with severe head winds It Ventild have iled to return, but it seems probable that even against a fairly strong head wind the =proved airship of to -clay should be able to make the Transatlantic trip, in one direction, LIKE A BALLOON. . . The airship also has the advantage' that, in the event of engine break- down. it can drift like a free balloon until the defect has been put right. The greatest objection to all airships of to -day is the constant danger • of fire. The engines themselves ' are driven by the most inflanimaiale of all fuels, and the airship itself is heated by means of the mist inflammable of all gases. Fire at san in early steam- sbips, and even on selling vessels, was always the chief dread ,of sailors, and fire' on an • airship in 'min -Atlantic seeras even a worse prospect.

In the third ceutury of our era we find the word "salmis," atid later etill the word "aciarium," whence the French "actor," Inca:ling steel. The word "steel" has not been found prior to the eighth century. It occurs in the so-called Epthangloss, where "steeli" is given as the Anglo-Saxon equivalent of the late Latin "aceear• lura," just mentioned. This may be verified by a consultation of Henry Sweet's edition of the gloss, 1883, page 2.

Long hair should be dealt with prefer- ably at night, when it ia taken down preparatory to going to bed, It should first be well brushed with a brush stiff enough to go well through It to the ecalp, but not so scratchy as to hurt the head. This brushing cleans the hairs, and gets the dust of the day out of the scalp. Then a piece of soft clean rag should be dipped .in a mixture of one ounce of glycerine with six ounces of water, and the scalp and roots of the hair shotild be firmly*. but gently rubbed with it, drawn over the finger tips. A patch ot the scalp shraeld be massaged with the tips of the ftngors and moved gently to and fro on the skull till it feels loose and elastic, when another par- sboulci be dealt with in the same way.
