and everything strengthens me in those
conclusions.
Hair grows like a vegetable, you
know, from roots. When one pulls out
a hair with little white thing at its
base one is likely to think the white
speck is the root. That's absurd. The
roots spread in a network under the
skin and the hairs fit into them by
these tiny white bulbs. Now, hair
lasts onry' from four to five years.
Seven years is the outside limit. SO
our hair is constantly falling, even
when we are in perfect health, but we
do not realize it because new hair is
constantly coming in. Nature has pro-
vided hair germs to fill the place of
the hair that falls.
These new hairs appear first as a
soft. delicate fuzz easily pulled out
or destroyed. Stiff brushing will wear
them out. just as it will wear out the
nap of cloth. The hair roots try to
make up for the destruction. They are
forced into abnormal growth and their
life force is depleted. The old hair is
falling. The new hair is not being al
lowed to live and grow. The life force
is being exhausted. The hair gets thin,
struggling, unhealthy, dies out alto
gether, and there you have your bald
man.
There are other queer things

because badness and brushes both cut
more of a figure among men than
among women, but the arguments APP
ply to both. Well, as l started to say,
the scalp of a man who uses a stiff
brush freely looks pink and crackly.
The scalp is covered with minute
pores, whose mouths are very close
together. about 700 of them to the
square inch. When a stiff brush strikes
them it tears across these tiny mouths.

which forms a dry scurf. The man
who owns the head says, why, I've
got dandruff,' and goes to brushing
harder than ever. when the scalp has
merely rebelled against the brush in
the first place.

AN ODD BIT OF ROYALTY.
The Turbulent Youth of James the
Sixth of Scotland.


Sixth of Scotland.
James the Sixth of Scotland. after
ward James the First of England, was
not the first youngster to wear the
Scottish crown, but he certainly was
the queerest. He was born in June,
1866. Prince Royal of Scotland and
Duke of Rothsay. The Queen of Eng
land was to be his god-mother and the
King of France his godfather, and as
news travelled very slowly in those
days 1t was December before the for
eign ENJOYS reached the court to stand
sponsors at his baptism. Queen Eliz-
abeth sent the royal baby an immense
silver font, and the King of France
sent a jewel and a bag of gold. The
baby king was dipped bodily in the big
font and never squealed. For some time
he lived at Stirling Castle for safety,
the times being very rough. His UNI
fortunate mother was taken prisoner
and forced TO abdicate the throne in
his favor. His beautiful baptismal
font was melted down for funds with
which TO fight against his poor mother,
and his bag Of gold went In the same

another period of suffering.
1t would seem a strange thing if the
sacrifice of nodesty were necessary to
the restoration of womanly health.
Such a sacrifice is not necessary. Wom-
en- suffering from womanly ailments in
almost all stages have found perfect
and permanent cure by the use of DR..
Pierce's Favorite Prescription.
FREE OFFER.
To those women who suffer from dis
ease in chronic form, DR.. Pierce offers
the privilege of free consultation by let

tionings, indicate examinations and
obnoxious local treatments deemed nee
essary by some local physicians. All
correspondence held as strictly private
and sacredly confidential. Address D.

This offer of free consultation by letter
should not be confused with offers of
vfree medical advice" which are made
by persons without medical knowledge or
experience, and who are barred, legally
and professionally, from the practice of
medicine. Though these people cannot
be prompt to punish them, they can Of

particularly foolish to neglect just
what mig materially aid them.
In the first place, very few realize
how much a direct and cordial well
come or greeting scores both with men
and women, not the "sweety sweety
manner" as some one dubs the overef-
fusive graciousness that clogs, but
manner that expresses genuine pleas
ure at the meeting. Shyness, indiffer-
ence and thoughtfulness all are factors
that with the youthful majority pre-
vent the development of this highly
desirable quality. Both old and young
like a person the better for seeming
genuinely pleased to see them.
Another great help to popularity and
agreeable manners is to cultivate
feeling of interest in the possessions of
other people. To appreciate what is
good and frankly admire it is always
agreeable to, the owner. To do this
successfully, however, the feeling it
self must be encouraged: without that
the mere expression of admiration
never rings quite true. To make q
study of what pleases and to assume
the manner are perfectly legitimate.
Assume a virtue if you have it not"
advises the poet, and although some,
with the intolerance of youth, call
such amenities insincere, the people
who try to please are certainly more
agreeable companions than those who
are thoughtless or Indifferent, and
might truly be called more unselfish
as well.
A third suggestion worth remember
ing is to make a point of talking to
older people when they are present,
and not withdraw obviously, as so
many do, from their society. when re-

SECRETS WOMEN keep At THE
PRICE OF SUFFERING.

A woman usually passes through sew
eral stages on her way to that condition
of semi-invalidism which limits the ac-
tivities of so many of her sex. For
time she suffers in silence and ignor-
ance, not able to relate her sufferings to
their proper cause - womanly disease.
When, presently, she makes the discov-
cry that her general health is related to
the local womanly health, she casts
about for help. She disikes to see the
physician, she shrinks from talking to
stranger of the intimate matters of her
woman's life, and when at last misery
drives her to the doctor, her inodesty is
up in arms at the faintest hint of exam
ination, and she finds excuse to put the

plunge for the body, after a warm
bath. The cold water closes the pores
and drives the blood from the surface
back to the vital organs. But it is a
different matter with the scalp. There

that the conscientious and scientific
hair specialist tries to promote.
Driving the blood away from the sur
