EEilt!ren'S Hair,

Though medical writers, III the part of their
several works that relates to the nursery, are
explicit enough with regard to the general
physical management of children, it is re-
markabe that so little is said in regard to the
course of treatment proper for the hair and
scalp. Now, this reticence cannot be the re-
suit Of Indifference to the state of the hair,
nor to the operation Of physiological laws
with whom every medical student is familiar.
| can assign no more satisfactory reason for
the fact above stated than this: The popular
impression that the scalp is exempt from the
operation of those laws of cleanliness which
everybody admits affect all the rest Of the body
surface, is entertained also by the learned; or
else the latter believe that they have but a
choice of evils-the least being to let the
scalp alone, while the greater would be to
keep that surface thoroughly clean at the eX
pense of constant trouble to the hair. So that
old bad custom of harsh combing and brush
ing, and the copiOus use of oil and grease,
still constitute the practice Of mothers and
nurses, with the permission and implied appro
baton of the family physician. How many of
the cases of serious disease of the scalp, in
infancy and childhood, are directly or indirect
lly, the result of this Objectionable treatment,
1t would be impossible to decide but from the
marvellous delicacy of the integuments at
that tender age, and the susceptibility of the
constitution, ere its habits have become fixed
and its processes part of a settled routine, we
cannot but infer that diseases of the scalp must
often have been produced in this manner. and
that, in vast number of other instances, the
disorder must have been terribly aggravated
by the same mahgn influences. Does any SEN
sible person, once fully satisfied of the infinite
delcacy of the cuticle on the head of a child,
imagine that so tender surface may with i'm
punity be daily raked and narrowed with fine
toothed combs and stiff bristled brushes and
also inhamed and irritated with violent fric
tons and stimulating application? No; every
touch, affecting so delicate a texture, should
be: soft and soothing; every application as
mud as possibe.-Dr, Rei7y's "Hair, Scalp
and Face"
