Are you bald? If so. where and
how much?
Are you bald obave the temples?
Is your hair getting a little thin
top?"
Is your crown hairless and exposed
to the winds Of a bitter world?
If so, you carry on your head dis

characteristics. BY your badness you
are exposed. according 10 the word OF

is apparent to the expert. The new
science makes your head an opeI

badness, declares the baldologist
comes not from what you do but what
you are.
The ntormost secrets of the heart
and brain are revealed on the out
eide Of the head. This is the claim
of this new order of scientists. No
matter how well one may hide his
intermost self from his neighbor, his
badness. if he has it, will betray him.
40 matter how much a man has tried
TO hide his most prOmienent charac-

On his head.
From now on it is expected there
will be two kinds of baldheads; the

thai it reveals his mean traits, and
the man who glOries in the shiny pate,

There are. according to the most re-

four types Of badness which tell a

ness upon the crown OF the head, bald
ness On top. thinness OF the hair on
the temples, and a lack of 1t upon
the fore part of the skull. Chicago
has several men of prominence who
make no effort to conceal their bald
ness indicating that they came by
the same in an honorable way. Harry
J. Olsen, Chief Justice of Municipal
Courts, is one of the citys leaders
in baldheaddom. Milton ]. Foreman
runs him a close second, while Mayor
Busse, as every one knows, is not
blessed with much hair on top

world, while Governor Hughes. of
New York, is plentifliy supplied with
hair. Whether the baldheaded man

OF badness:

of the brain. Hence, just as one per-.
son varies in characteristics from an
other, so his brain is differently de-

The part of name brain which
is most active is the region where the
circulation is most stimulated. Other
parts of the brain are cold and

the more the blood will be drawn
to those areas, not as most per-
