A correspondent of the Athens
(Ohio) Journal writes: In my
travels through West Virginia l
came in contact with an interest
ing family living in Cabell county,
the head of which is 195 years
old; his wife is 1913; they have had
IA children, Il of whom are still
living, the eldest being S3and the
youngest 46. They have 108 grand
children, and, as faras known, 2O9
great grand children +; in all 1854
descendants. The old people are
in good health, and bid fair to see
another generation. The old gen.
tleman's mother died in 1866, at
the age of 125. They have de.
scendants in every State in the
Union except Texas.

Men become bald. Why? Be
cause they wear close hats and
caps. Women are never, except
by disease, and they do not wear
close hats and caps. Men never
lose hair below where. the hat
touches the head, not if they have
been, bald twenty years. The
close cap holds the heat and per,
spiration; thereby the hair glands
become weak, and the hair falls
out.
