THE DAILY ARGUS.
The Human Hair.

Yes said ST. Louis barber In an
swer to a question. there are a good
many curious things about the hair
suppose you believe, as most people 10,
that frequent shaving will make the
hair grow on your face. That is not SO.
just think of it for a minute and try to
explain to yourself how scraping your
face with a razor can put new hair roots
in your skin! What shaving does do is
to increase the thickness of the hairs all
ready there-not their number. In this
way frequent shaving makes the beard
somewhat thicker. But at the same
time, of course. it makes it coarser A
young freshman with little down on
his upper lip MIGHT spend his entire
time shaving himself and he could not
start the growth of a single new hair.
The beard is not nearly so troublesome
to take care of as the hair of the head.
The beard is so much smaller and thin
ner for one thing. There are about 290
hairs to q quarter of a square inch OF
surface ON the scalp. and only forty
hairs to the quarter inch on the chin.
Some of the hair folIicles on. the scalp,
particularly at the back of the head, are
often turned the wrong way making
what some BARRIERS call .cow-lick. ;
This gives man heaps of trouble, but
it can be cured. Frequent brushing is
the only way to remedy it.
Hair dyes" he went on; ''oh, yes, we

generally make my own. but ] could
buy just as. good, though they would
cost more. If YOU take any half dozen
of the standard dyes you.will find they
are all substantially the same. Nitrate
of silver and sulphur do the business.
But there is not nearly as much dyeing
of the hair now as there was a few years
ago. Gray hair is more fashionable,
ard it is certainly prettier than dyed
hair. which can always be detected. no
matter how we'll it is done. The turn
ing gray of the hair is no sign of any
loss in its vitality. 1t is caused by a
Weakening of the coloring vessels, that
is all. Tight hats cause grayness, as
well as badness. There is something
mysterious about the hair. L have stud

hair as something almost superior to
the rest of his body. 1t is nearer inn

taken from a coffin that had been buried
for over forty years, when all the rest

If possible do not have a home with
out music; let it soften and mellow the

Don't read books and papers which

The coIored voters of Missouri have
fallen out with the Republican party
and bolted. They have had the wool
pulled over their eyes long enough, and
say that they viii no longer vote for
Republican task masters who leayethem
to look to their Democratic friends for
personal favors. 1t is about time that
the colored voters of Tennessee were al
ligning themselves WITH the Democratic
party. They are dependent on Demo-
Gratis for employment Every time one
Of them gets into trouble he calls on n
Democrat for assistance, and gets it.
Then why is it that they persist IN vo-
ting against the interests of those who
help them ? Oh, say some Of them, the

But the Republicans do not give them
employment to buy meat and bread,
without which their freedom wouldn't
be worth having. We hope the colored
voters Of Tennessee win show their
gratitude at the coming election by yo-
ting the straight Democratic ticket.
