O Lord's, How Long! Tue great cricket match played at the historic Lord's Ground—the Ger tlemen vs. Players, or, as we should int fashi say in our the Amateurs Pros—is just over That is, I think it is over, but it may flare up again at any moment It ran for t ‘ce days and would have run longer only experience has taught them that that is the maximum of time during which they may expect fair weather Play commenced the first day at 12:00; second and third days at 11:30. Luncheon interval at 1 Stumps were drawn (English for ” limit of endurance has been reached”) at 6:30, ‘There will probably be a Tea Inter- val,” ran the score card, “at 4:15-4:30, but it will depend on the state of the game.” Either way you lose. As I said, it ran for three years—days I mean.

An Easy Way to Remove Dandruff If you want plenty of thick, beautiful, glossy, silky hair, do by all means get rid of dandruff, for it will starve your hair and ruin it if you don't.

By morning, most, if not all, of your dandruff will be gone, and three or four more applications should completely re- move every sign and trace of it. You will find, too, that all itching of the scalp will stop, and your hair will look and feel a hundred times better. You can get Liquid Arvon at any drug store. A four- ounce bottle is usually all that is needed. The RL. Watkine Co., Cleveland, Onie THE CANADIAN PACIFIC HOTEL aATor OLD QUEBEC 3 centuries to romance You leave Montreal.
