Frank M'Coy timioi ar tmi rAT way to nialth' Fingernails THE clear rosy finger nail with a good color and free from white spots, ridges and dis- colorations is a fine advertisement of good health. The nails are, however, readily injured by accident or disease so that they lose natural luster, color and shape, and, when the tissue about the nail becomes inflamed, the annoyance is often severe and lasting. The rate of growth of the nails varies with individuals. The average time required for a full nail growth is about four or five months. The fingernails grow about four times as fast as the toenails, or about one-thirtieth of an inch per week.

The most, frequent nail disorder is probably caused by eczema, which spreads from the adjacent tissues and attacks the nail root itself so that there may be a swelling and painful throbbing around the nail. In chronic eczema the nail may record the illness by developing furrows across itself. If eczema is severe, sometimes the entire nail is lost. In other cases, there is a thickening of the nail i both in eczema and psoriasis) and the nail may turn to a yellow brown color and thicken and curve over the end of the finger like a claw. The white spots commonly seen on the nail are considered to be the result of knocking the root of the nail against some object.

They may also occur from injury during manicuring where the cuticle is pushed down too far, or they may occur in nervous disorders and in cases where the diet is deficient in some of the mineral elements. Hangnail is an annoying trouble, but not serious. This occurs when a shred of the nail next to the skin breaks away and sticks into anything that the finger touches. Hangnails may usually be removed by being clipped off with scissors or being jerked out in the direction of the fingertip. (CowrUht.

One car of the caravan was converted into an ambulance and took the victims to the Liver-more Hospital. The Scouts stood guard over the road until State police arrived. SCOUTERS' CONVENTION.

The cost should be trafling, because of the material for this ride can be found round the home or picked up for a dime or two at the nearest junk shop. The merry-go-round shown here requires for its essential parts, a plank, some piping and fittings, a few bolts, a couple of screw-eyes, a piece of strong timber, some concrete, some good rope and a couple of old kitchen chair-seats. A couple of trees sufficiently wide apart to take the heavy timber and support it, while giving room between them for the ride to operate, will save erecting uprights and brares for the timber. Clear away a space about 20 feet in diameter on level ground between two Irees. If the trees have limbs about ten feet from the pround, set the heavy timber across 'he two crotches and lash ends firmly.

If there is no suitable rrotch, lash the timber firmly by L.BEASLEY Those sending delegates and spon- soring the movement, were: Minis terial Alliance, Art and Industrial Club, Nurses' Bureau.
