WAY the Hair Gets Thin.
When ones hair shows the frst eEi-
dence OF thinning out most people rush
to the barber shop and have il clipped,
with the thought that it viii come in
again in greater luxuriance. This is a
fallacy. The cause of badness in man
is, says DR.. Leslie Phillips in the Med
ical Record, to be found in the fact that
he cuts his hair. In men the hair is
habitually cut short from childhood,
while in women the converse is almost
universally true. In boyhood and man,
hood, by clipping and cutting the hair,
we remove the gentle traction on the
bulb and follicle which the natural
weight of the hair exercises, and
which constitutes the essential and
natural stimulus necessary to secure
due innervation and vascular supply to
the hair-produeing structures Loss of
vigor, and finally more or less pro-
nounced atrophy, is the inexorable re-
suit, modified or delayed, it may be, by
collateral circumstances, predisposi-
tions or conditions. DR.. Phillips warns
/ the NEW woman" against wearing her
hair short. Almost every theory has
some defect, and we might ask DIR. Phil
lips why men who clip their boards or
shave for long time do not get bald
on their chins.

More Evidence for Gov. O'FerraH Has
Been Obtained at Jackson City
Additional testimony to be sent TO Gov.
OFerraH, OF Virginia, was obtained by
the committee of nine on Sunday last as
to the infractons of law at Jackson CITY
and the other gambling resorts on the
Virginia side of the Potomac.
On account of the exposures made in The
Times about two weeks ago, in which
persons and places were called by their
name, the proprietors thought it well last
Sunday to close the bars and the down
stairs rooms, and admit only the elect to
the games, which were transferred to the
upper rooms, and notably in the resorts
opposite Georgetown. Agents of the COM
mittee, however, managed to get in, ana
their depoSitions have been forwarded to
Gov. 0Ferrall.
Chairman F. i. Moore of the committee.
said yesterday that he had not yet been
notified by the Governor as to when the
proposed conference between representa-
tives of the committee, the Governor and
attorney general Of Virginia can take pace.
1t is quite likely, however, that there will
be some additional delays.
Mr.. Moore said that he had noted that
the Governor has been summoned to Norfolk
in trial to take Lace there, and perhaps
there will be no reply to the committee
until he returns to Richmond. Mr.. Moore
is of the opinion that Gov O'Ferrall is quite
sincere in his desire to speedily provide for
the conference, and that when it is held
the evidence win be ample to call for
prompt action.
