"Some freak OF nature, L suppose,
causes sup%erfiuous hair" said o wen
known physician. 81 cannot tell what.
Hair can grow on all parts of the surface
of the body excepting the palms OF the
hands and the soles of the feet; but 1t Is
! not frequently seen excepting on the parts
where one usually expects to see 1t, and
II a tuft of hair is found growing in an
unusual place it is called q Disagreement,
md one finds some way Of removing 1t.
A great many apply to me. My method
is electrolysis, or by means OF q battery,
which carries an electric current into the
hair follicles, burning it out l v
taken out a thousand hairs for one So
ciety lady. Mole hairs are treated very
successfully in this way, 90 per cent.
being permanently destroyed with one
current, and 3 second trial destroys those
left the first time"
Does it hurty'
Not much. The flesh is sore for q day
or two like a little burn, but it seldom
troubles one more than q few minutes.
This method was discovered by o physi-
clan who uses a milder current than l,
but the patients say mine burns no more.
IL is something, however, l do not care es-
p~ecially to practice. | studied up hair,
its uses and abuses and that brought
me considerable correspondence from all
over the world. | do not like the bust

great deal.
TWO KINDS OF HAIR.
"There are two kinds Of hair-a soft
down Oh the lower lobes Of the ears that
is difficult 10 remove. The coarser hair
which grows on the ear can be easily de-
stoyed."
GLOW about the hair on ladies' upper
lips!n
They usually shave that of or use q
French powder. or course that has to
be often repeated. Sometimes 1t Is
| clipped, but that renders the next growth
harsh. | have heard of bellies smuggling
the hair Off their arms over n wax can
lie. but that was in the era of short
| sleeves and before these French powders
were invented. But while young ladies
NAV like the hair taken out Of u mole on
the neck or face they are very particular
that the mole itself shall be left"
"Why so.;'
..Oh. there's more or less fortune in
mOleS.
One on the neck brings riches; on the
face nearly all the blessings flesh is heir
to. besides making q white complexion
still whittier by contrast. heard a young
lady say the other day that n mole she
had on her arm had brought her heaps OF
luck. II is right on the line OF life,' she
said, and the nurse who saw IL first pre-
dicted it would bring long life, riches,
happiness, and. better than all, a good
husband Yes, moles are treasured.
| sometimes have applications TO put
| them on, but never To n them off,"
"Do you think badness increases"
II cannot say that il does. IL people
would live more out of doors, or II they
kept their heads uncovered, they would
be less likely to get bald. The reason
fewer ladies are bald is that they let the
air in on the roots of the hair. Hot
rooms are death to hair germs. Then
disturbances within the nervous system
frequently affect the hair. Depression Of
| spirits helps to make one bald"
THE RUIZ CONCERNING BALDNBss.
care people bald at an earlier age than
formerly"
at is Il hereditary rule that il the ia
Their is bald at 30 the son may expect to
be nj %. When a MAJ begins to grow a
beard there is 80 per cent. drain on his
blood, and If the system is allowed To run
down the hair feels il in proportion To
the other parts Of the body and the hair
on the top of the head grows thin and
perhaps comes of. a large growth Of
hair certainly runs in families, and often
through all the branches"
as long, heavy hair injuriousy'
Ladies' often complain that 1t brings
on headache, or thnt their strength goes
to their hair, and it is certainly incon-
yenicnt often 10 dress fashionably very
long, heavy heir, but ] think people ure
guided more by style than by comfort.
II cutting the hair short is the style, Ia
dies and girls will follow 1t, even to the
! sacrifice Of beautiful ~tresses. II large
cOifrurcs are the fashion, women will
carry q bushcl of false hair on their
heads whether it suits their style Of feat
lures or not. In III the English and
French women wore = mountain Of hair,
plumcs Of feathers and chains Of beads
hanging about this huge couture, on the
top Of which were worn models Of coaches
and horses blown in glass. In 1880, the
queen of France having lost her hair by
illness, the ladies cut OFF oil their locks
and adopted a new couture called a ZEN
FAINT, aud which brought out many satiri-
cal couplcts.
an the dressing Of tho hair the shape
Of the nose should be considered as Is the
figure in selecting Il becoming pattern.
II the nose is large the hair may be
dressed rather massive, or else the large
nose will make the head look small and
out Of proportion. With a Greek nose
one may venture on q classic knot, but
with he many varieties Of American
noses, the childish shapes Of some, and
the tip tilted form Of others, the present
i~nfantile bangs or short, fluffy curls, are
especially becoming. don't know what
