CoLoRED OLD FOLKS HOME.
Authorities Want the County or
City to Assume It's Management.

City to Assume Its Management.
A communication from the authori-
ties of the Colored Old Folks Home, in
which the commissioners of the county
were asked to take charge of the insti-
tuition. and either alone, or jointly with
the CITY, conduct it as they deemed
proper, was read to the board at it's
meeting yesterday. The communica-
ton was received as information, no ac-
ton being taken thereon.
. The home was built several years ago
by public subscriptions among the col
ored people. The property represents
an investment of about $3.50. The insti-
tuition was conducted successfully for
a short while, but gradually became in
volved, until now there are no available
funds with which to run it. The au-
thorities, having failed to realize a sur
ficient fund among their own people,
now appeal to the county to carry on
the work.

And yet of what little impor- tance was its potential power regarded by the philosophers of the healing art till Fensen the great Norwegian physi- cist only few years ago demonstrated 7 its incomparable worth as a therapeutic q agent in the alleviation and cure of hu- main ailments. But once the attention of the earnest searchers of scientific knowledge was called to that line of in- Vestigation. experiment after experiment gave proof after proof of its wonderful potency and power as therapeutic means of removing pathological conditions and re-establishng proper physiological functions in the human system as well as in all other forms of animate nature, un- til to day phototheropy or the light cure theory is recognized by the savants of medical science in every land and country where sickness is known and science pre- vals.
 Next in imporatnce to light. if indeed it he second, is that of electricity. itself the first great principal of light and life in all animate and inanimate nature. When the master mind of Morse, the in Ventor of the telegraph dictated his first message it was this, What Hath God Wrought, and he used the scripture to propound a query which God himself had Inspired, and the answer to that greatest of all great questions today is Look and Live Behold what God hath wrought.

attempted in ages past and long years gone by to evolve and record a system of electrical treatment for the beneht of suf- fering man, but alas, for the super stitious, stubborn stupidity, ignorance, and intolerant bigotry of both the laity and the profession, electricity remained unused as q medium of the healing art except that here and there some charlatan or ignorant quack made of 1t a means of imposing upon the unsophisticated and incredulous whom they were pleased to dupe, even as palm reading, spirtualism, osteopathy and other humbugery is prac- ticed to this day
 But truth Is great and will prevail and under the searchlights of science and the crucial tests of intelligent experiment the dross has been separated from the true gold of fact and the great force powers and possibilities of electricity have been made known. and the world today is standing aghast in astonishment at the and wonderful results of the applications and uses of that great and subtle ele- ment of nature, that most omnipotent power of the most omniscient God, electricity Who that has seen the mysterious but ever wonderful X-ray, or who has investigated the potential pow CTS of photo radiance and has not real ized the fact that in heat, light and cleo tricity, the trinity in uno of universal mediumship, is mans most potential source of health and healing.

 In buying a shaving soap be careful to get soap that hardens the beard easily and quickly. Be sure that your razor has an evenly notched, sawlike edge and and then with the beard brittle and up- right as possible it may be sawed from tn face smoothly and with the least pos sble pull"
 This isn't horse play in words it is no part of a vaudeville monologue to reach the tens, twents and thirts. It is up-to date science, and as such 1t Is one of the most overwhelming bits of informa- tion coming to the barber since the phy- sician took from him the lancet, the cupping glass. and the leech.
 "Softening the beard" has been one of the stock phrases of the barber and of the man who slaves himself. It will not be asy to lose, but the decree of science has condemned it, and London derma- tologist has announced with fnality that a really softened beard cannot be cut easily by razor; that the office of the soap Is to remove the oil from the hair of the face leaving it brittle and i'm bedded in creamy father in which condi- ton the sawlilxe edge of the razor will saw the hair off in comfort.
 The subject in general has interested the London Lancet, which, in a recent issue at least, found no fault or question on the statement of the dermatologlst In considerable measure it will be re- garded as indorsing his statement, when 1t says:
 "The use of soap father, prior to shay ing the beard, is regarded merely as a means of facilitating the troublesome op- eration. Soap is said to extract the oil matter from the hair ln1 thL.s rend 1T it brittle so that the blade Of the razor saws through it easily; for after all shay ing is a delicate saving process. Wl,h sensitive skins, of course a soap of good quality and preferably free from alkaline excess Is desirable On the other hand 1t might be thought that an excess of alSali would prepare the beard more readily than a pure or superfatted soap. The corrosive effect of alkali however leaves no doubt whatever of which de- scription of soap should be used"
 In this manner the Lancet lends it's judgment to the theory of cutting the beard when the individual hairs on the face are reduced by alkaline processes to a degree of brittieness undreamed of by the grandfathers of this generation. While In shaving soaps there Is a dis tinctly minmized quantity of alkali, the testimony of even the doubting barber favors the new theory. While insisting that the father of soap softens the beard the manager of a well known dow rtown shop incidentally lent color to the alka- line effect by pointing to the rubbing in of the mild soap used fer the purpose.
 i've worn the ends of my fingers through with the stubby boards of my customers" he said. "rhe skin at such times has been so tender that have had to change to the other hand for days in order for the lame hand to recuperatte."

But no picture or words can ade- quately show or describe this most re- markable device for the curing of such diseases as it is inteneded to cure. It must be seen to be appreciated, especially will it be of interest to those whose lungs have been invaded by the death dealing germs of consumption.
