We sell a good many to some of Ow
incest customers. Some people think
combing the hair with stiff, fine comb
gives life to the hair and invigoFafas
the scalp. That is most likely why the
sale in that line does not decrease. But
it is a mistake. Fine combs create
dandruff. Let people wash their heads
well and there viii be no use for them
at all
notwithstanding this, some of the
fine combs are quite high priced ar
ticles, some being real tortoise shell
and some of the daintiest and most ex-
pensive toilet sets contain a thin little
fine comb, with as many sharp teeth as
Argus bad eyes. The best are Of ivory,
and cost from 81 20 Sl.75. The tor
toise shell combs cannot be cut in such
fine teeth without breaking, so, neess-

Badness comes TO some people early
IN life, and the universal dislike to this
appearance makes every one dread the
time when the head will be bald. Up
TO a certain time the hairs are repro
dueed as rapidly as they fall out, and
then comes a time when the latter pre-
dominates and the first stages of bald
ness begin. If it is in the ordinary
process of nature nothing can be done
to prevent it, and you must accept the
inevitable; but badness is due to 50
many other causes that one is never
actually sure that he is not a victim
TO some scalp disease. Fevers, child
bed, diseases of the skin and general
debility of the system will sometimes
cause premature badness.
But probably dandruf is the most
general cause. This is simply one
feature Of scalp disease, and it can be
removed generally by careful treat
meRt. Sometimes local stimulants to
the scalp which will aid reproduction
may prove beneficial Among tbG best
washes for this purpose are those con
talning rosemary, canthandes, mustard
and capsicuu, but even these should
be used cautiously. Everything de
pends upon the individual and the
Sngth the disease has been allowed
