TO PREVENT BADNESS.
Suggestions for Preserving the Hair by
Derma tOlOgist.


matOlogist.
The men of my fathers generation
habitually used pOmades on the scalp.
To protect the hair coverings from the
grease on their heads tides came into
vogue. Then the pendulum swung
the other way. and now pomades of all
kinds are tabooed That there has
been a great increase in badness
among young men of the present gen.
Grafton is a general impression, al
though | know of no statistics to sup
port or refute it, Some fifteen years
ago, when | first became interested in
the study of diseases of the hair, l
accepted the teaching of the time that
pOmades did no good, and, becoming
rancid. did positive harm. With en-
larging experience | am becoming
more and more convinced that | was
wrong and that one reason why the
hair is lost so early nowadays is be-
cause the sons have forgotten the
teachings and practice of their fathers
in regard to the use of pOmades. They
neither use pomades nor seek to stimu
late the natural oily supply to the hair
by systematic brushing. Instead
they daily wet their heads with water
TO enable them to arrange their hair.
By not using pOmades and by wetting
the hair instead of brushing it their
hair becomes more and more dry, dan

brush their hair thoroughly every
night and morning and had little po-
made that would not turn rancid, such
