ly Increases the growth Of the hair.
This belief begins with the involuntary
comparison of the hair with a plant.
: AS grass that is often cut short grows
again and becomes thicker SO, 1t Is be-
lieved, the hair should do when 1t is cut.
| This comparison, however, Is false
one. A developed hair is a perfectly
formed mass Of horn which has nothing
further to do with the case in which the
mar rests than to receive from 1t from
below further growth and to be held
firmly by 1t. In this mass OF
horn, as In the nails Of the fingers and
toes, there is no longer any say in cir
culatlon; this mass, so to speak, Is
product which cannot be quickened and
strengthened by new nourishment, be-
cause the latter cannot enter 1t On the
other hand, what happens In blade
of grass is totally different. The blade
OF grass Is a network of fine ducts in
which Is constantly circulated the
nourlshment which the blade draws
from the root; ii presents, in contrast
with the dead body Of the hair, liv-
ing, negotiating substance which has a
most intimate connection with the con-
dition of its root, and which dries up
infallibly when 1t is separated from its
root, while the hair will remain unaf-
fected for thousands of years after It's
papilla has withered away. We need
cite only one irresistible proof of this,
the hair on the heads of mummies. The
root of the hair as long as 1t exists can
produce a. new hair when the old hair
has fallen out, while the root of many

in its natural growth by continually
cutting off it's ends the less rest its pa
pilla, the real producer of the hair,
finds; the papilla. being constantly incl
ted to excessive production, wavers
finally in its activity, decays and dies. |
For this reason woman with bald |

A Toast TO the Losing Man.

Here's to the man that loses-thc patient
luckless wight,
Who battles ever manfully, though in los
ing fight,
Who works away by night and day, and
ever meets defeat,
Yet knows that, dim, ahead of him, success
success Is sweet
Drink to his hcalth-the losing man--com-
moner, prince or priest
Who has no hate for his hard fate--for he
tried at least
Health to the man who loses--the one who
works in vain,
The one who struggles calamity, and gar
ners naught but pain.
Down to the grave, his heart Is brave, his
hope Is ever high,
For he has learned what we have spurned
that 1t is good to try.
Drink to his luck-the losers luck--skeleton
at the feast
Sorrow and rue may be his due, but he has
tried at least
Health to the man that loses-loses and
pays the price
Pays the price of the loser-unfavored Of
Fortunes dice.
Courage to dare fate unfair-that is his
goody mark,
Mettlc and might to search for light,
though cropping In the dark
Drink to his healtl--the losing man-soldier
or slave, or priest
What though he fall: He's better than all
for he has tried, ut least.

MORE FREEDOM HER n.

This Is a much freer country than
Canada. The Canadians are having
some pretty hot politics just now, but
they have to be careful how they act.
For instance, their Electoral law says
that no person shall furnish or supply
any ribbon, label or like favor to or for
any person, with intent that 1t be worn
or used within such electoral district on
the day of election or polling, or with
in eight days before such day, or dur
ing the continuance of such election by
any person as party badge to disting
uish the wearer as the supporter of
any candidate, or of the political or
other opinions entertained, or supposed
to be entertained, by such candidate;
and no person shall use or wearany rib
bon, label or other favor as such badge
within such electoral district on the
day of any such election, or polling, or
within eight days before such day dur
ing the continuance of such election.
Free American citizens can cover
themselves with political labels if they
want to, and some of them come near
doing it. 1t Is difficult to see just
what good such a law as that of Cana
da does.

The legal status of the bicycle In the
streets has been pretty well established
and now the automobile is going
through the courts as well as through
the streets. A case of Importance to
the owners Of automobiles was decided
in one Of the Rhode Island courts the
other day. Walter S. Williams and his
wife were driving on street in Proyi-
dence when an automobile came along.
The horse which Mr.. Williams was
driving was frightened and ran away.
Both Mr.. Williams and his wife were
thrown out of their carriage and seri-
tusly injured Two suits were therefore
brought against the owner of the auto
mobile, and after the case had been pre-
dered for the plaintiffs for 81, 400 and
$500. The defense was that the defend
ant had the same right to be on the
highway with his automobile that the
owner of any other vehicle had to be
there with his vehicle, provided of
course, that he exercised a degree of
care commensurate with the danger
arising from its novelty and the nature
of its construction and appearance.
This care he claimed to have exercised.
