suggest that human beings should be raised by

look, this time at the Boston doctors who claim
that souls have weight; this, we protest, is in
direct opposition to all the dictG of the Euro

serviency and cheap imitation here! Again we
submit the famous American Sunlight Theory,
which makes political and racial history turn
upon the fermentation of the human skin. And
very recently we find two glorious specimens of
American intellectual courage In the Hearst re-

Violin As A Hair Restorer.

1t is now scientifically proved
fact that music exercises a great in
fiuence on the growth of the hair.
It is with good reason that great
musicians, such as Paganini, List,
and Paderewski, are represented with
growth of hair which Absalom
might have envied.
Science has proved that stringed
instruments have a favorable infiu-
ence on the growth of the hair, while
brass instruments act in the opposite
direction. Every one has probably
observed that a bald violinist is as
rare as a bald horn player Is COM
mon. Wood instruments, such as the
flute, seem to have no pronounced in
fiuence either way.
