THE ELECTRIC CURRENT AND

APPLICATIONS
CONTINUED from Page One.)

zero, and hence, if the full current
that is employed to run the motor
were applied to the same at once,
the current sent through it would be
so large as to overhead it and cause
a "burn OUT somewhere in the
armature. To prevent this, the larg
err motors are each furnished with a
"starting box' or controller which
consists of resistance coils which may
be thrown into series with the motor
on starting and thrown out again
gradually as the speed increases and
the counter electro-motive force
rises.
Those motors which are merely
reversed dynamos are called commu-
tating-type motors. All motors de-
signed for direct currents are of
this type and so are many that are
designed for alternating currents.
The commutating-type alternating
current motor is generally called n
Sy%nchronous motor. In all communal
ing type motors, there is direct cleo,
trical connection between the "pri-
mary and secondary" through
carbon or copper brushes. 1t is not
always possible to keep the brushes
in perfect contact with an even
pressure, and trouble is frequently
experienced with them.
Direct current motors are divided
into the same classes as are direct
current generators. If the current
IS passed by the brushes through the
armature coils and thence through
the field coils, we have a series
wound motor; if it divides at the
divides at the brushes, part going
through the field coils and the remain
Ter through the armature coils, the
motor is called a shunt wound motor.
A second type of motor that may
be used only on alternating currents,
does away entirely with brushes. 1t
is called the ind~uction-type motor.
The induction motor has it's primary
(stator) directly ~magnetised by the
supply current. In the secondary
(rotor) low voltage currents are in
duced by the action of the primary.
The stator is wound in such a way,
that when supplied with an alternat-
ing current. the maximum intensity
of the field changes from point to
point. giving the effect of a rotating
field core. The virtually rotating
field induces a secondary current in
the rotor and the reaction between
the "rotating'' field and the induced
current causes the rotation of the
rotor. The rotor is not electrically
connected with any external circuit.
The induction motor possesses
many features that recommend it for
construction having no delicate parts
such as commutator or brushes. The

1t 10 the duty Of every one who is interested in hair
preservation to learn enough about the subject to tell
whether an advertisement for a hair remedy is reason
able or unreasonable. In this connection, the United
States postofice department has begun a much needed
campaign against false and misleading statements in
advertisements in general. While this work is highly
commendable and should be greatly extended, still at
the same time it tends to paternalism rather than to
personal self reliance. If YOU know that the claims for
. hair remedy are unreasonable and untrue, that know.
ledge will save you money and prevent disappointment.
The trouble lies in the fact that certain over am.
bltious proprietors employ advertising writers who do
not know the composition of the remedies they write
know the therapeutic action of the various ingredients.
Two very familiar and oft repeated statements are, that
the hair must be watered and fed just like a plant, and
that the color of the hair, once destroyed, can be re-
stored, by natural process. While both of these state
ments are false in every particular, it requires some
little knowledge of the hair follicle to understand why
the statements are false.
The hair folicle is a pear-shaped sack in the SCALP
that holds the hair root. At the bottom of the hair
follicle and extending up into it for a short distance,
is a nipple shaped projection that remains in the scalp
when a hair root is forcibly pulled out. This projection
is the hair papila from which the hair 'rooto grows.
The continuous addition to the bottom of the hair root
forces the hair proper out through the scalp.
The hair papina is surrounded by the hair roo,
which thus takes a dubious form. Above the hair root
or bulb-which occupies about threefourths of the
entire follicle@s the neck of the hair follicle, below
which the most penetrating fluids known to medical
science cannot penetrate. Therefore, the story of feed
ing the starved and impoverished hair roots with an
external application is all a myth.

Plain Facts About the Hair

The short portion of the hair follicle above its neck
opens somewhat like a funnel and is filled with the
outer scalp skin. Opening into this outer portion are the
highly important oil or sebaceous glands which, from
their location, are most exposed to disease. When
these oil glands become infected with a certain mierobic
growth (tne cause Of dandruf) there is hair disease
and finally hair death. Fortunately this outer portion
of the hair Iollie,t can lie treated by carefully rubbing
into the sea p a suitable remedy. What remedy should
be used? Manifestly one that will destroy the growth
that causes dandruf, itching scalp and falling hair.
Newbro's Herpicide is the first remedy that was pre-
pared Tor the particular purpose of destroying this in
'ORIGINAL remedy that kills the dandruf GERM
Unna, of Hamburg, Germany (ask your doctor about
him) discovered that dandruf is a highly contagious
disease, caused by a microbe. The almost marvellous
success of Newbro's Herpicide has caused advertising
writers to claim g%ermicidal properties for other hair
remedies, many of which were on the market wears
before Prof. Unna s discovery.
Do you think that this new claim for old remedies is
a reasonable onef Remember, that the hair gets its
lire. color and strength direct from the blood, and that
good blood. deep breathing and sunlight favor hair
development. Out -door exercise, to insure free circula-
ton in the scalp, also scalp massageing for the same
purpose, are very helpful. Worry, Indigestion and
sedentary habits oppose hair growth, while the dan
druf germ will actually destroy the hair, unless it is
eradicated and kept out of the scalp with Newbro's
Herpicide.

the scalp and almost marvellous results sometimes follow
