MAKES THE HAIR GROW.
Reports from England State That
Oxygen, Locally Applied, Is
Cure for BaIdness,

The use of gas 10 make the hair
grow is one of the latest medical dis
coveries. The gas employed is oxygen.
A large cap fits tightly round the head
and is supplied with oxygen from a
bag which is slung over the patients
shoulders. 1t is worn for a few hours
every day, and even in cases of abso-
lutte badness is said to produce a more
or less luxuriant crop of hair.
The discovery was made at the oxy-
gen hospital, Fitzroy square, London,
an institution of which Princess Louise
is patron. The gas is used for the
cure of quite number of diseases. A
woman was undergoing the oxygen
cure for skin diseases, and one of her
arms had for many days been placed

Lion VeRsus nunaIo.

When Purvis and C'srk were explor-
ing in Africa, north II the Zambesi,
they saw q large HoF stalking a buff
falo bull and a calf. In his native
wilds the Hon is no particular hero,
while the African buffalo is one Of
the most dangerous of the wild
things. So Puryis and Clark watched.
Suddenly the bull charged. but the
lion sprang to one side for an in
slant. then leaped for the calf. Be-
fore the beast eould strike, however,
the buffalo bull had turned again and
charged. The hon, on the defensive,
struck at his assailant, but the blow
had no effect on the enraged creature.
Oae of the long, cruel horns caught
the lion in the side and the creature,
weighing more than 400 pounds, was
thrown ten feet into the air.-Chicago

LATEST SUMMER DRINK.
It Is Made from the Juice of the Tam

Chicago by Storm.

The summer man who eschews lem
onade because it is not up to date can
find cooling satisfaction in the newest
drink of the year. Tamarindade is
just as pleasant and it sounds better.
The new drink, which is made from
the juice of the tamarind, is an i'm
Portation from the south, and, while
1t is a stranger to the palate of the
average Chicagoan, it is said to be a
faVorite drink in states bordering on
the gulf. Tamarindade is not yet

away yacht sails about 20 miles.
The angles of these tacks are at
about 90 degrees TO each other, SO that
the yacht sails at an angle of about as
degrees to the wind.
One quarter of the circle shows the

the circle the yacht can sail indefinite

When a yacht is sailing as near the

an angle of about As degrees from the
direction of the wind.
When a yacht is said to be on port
tack she is leaning over TO starboard,
When a yacht is close hauled her
boom is down in as close as it will
go. When she is making broad reach
with the wind on the beam the boom
is eased off until il is at an angle Of
about 45 degrees from the line of the

When she is running before the wind
the boom is at right angles to the di-

on Bald Heads)
In a light air-tjght box filed with the
gas 1t was soon noticed that on that
part of the arm that was unaffected by
the disease the growth of hair was
much stimulated, and this naturally
,uggested oxygen as a cure for bald
ueSS.
The first experiment was made upon
q woman who had completely lost her
hair,and it was found that after a few
weeks treatment there was quite a
strong growth.
The gas has also been found beue-
fetal for weak eyes, and is used in q
similar manner, a hollow flexible cup
being placed over the upper part Of
the face. This is connected by means
of an india rubber tube 10 a small gas
bag and is worn day after day until a
cure is effected.
But by far the greatest service that
oxygen is TO perform is in the cure Of
consumption. The patients inhale the
gas for ten hours every day and find
almost immediate relief. The germs
