GROWING HAIR ON BALD HEAD
Electricity Utilized by Latest Method
More Effective Than Any other
Process Tried.

The newest method of growing hair
on bald heads is by electricity. 1t Is
said to be more effective than any
process hitherto known, and promptly
checks a tendency to falling hair
though Of ours when badness has
reached its final stage nothing will
help, and even the electric current
does not avail, the roots being dead.
For the purpose in question a cur
rent is applied to an exceedingly high
voltage, but of small amperage.. This
Is not SO hard to understand as might
be imagined. Voltage is a term of
pressure. When water is flowing out
of a faucet one might call the rate Of
flow the voltage and the size of the
stream the amperage. In the Ease OF
the bald-headed man who seeks cleo
trical treatment only a small quantity
of electricity is employed. but it Is ap-
piled at high pressure.
Tie result Is a vigorous stimulation
of the scalp and the roots of the hair.
II the latter have any vitality left in
them the bald place will soon be COW
cred by a downy fuzz. and, healthy
conditions being restored. a becoming
hirsute thatch will take the place of
the erstwhile bare expanse of Uranium

ELECTRIC WAITER is NOVEL
Frenehman Arranges His House so
That He Can Secure Numerous
Articles by Electricity.

The wonderful electric house of Mr..
George Knapp. in Paris. France. in
which the owner can be served with
anything he wants from a book to a
meal In any room in the house by
simply pushing a button, can hear
everything going on In any part OF the
house and see approaching visitors be-
fore they gain the entrance, has been
described before. But many new
things are continually being added.
n of the most interesting being the
means by which dishes are made to
appear on the table.
The chef prepares each dish in its
proper order and has it ready waiting
on a tray. When the host and his
guests are seated at the table. the
former touches a button and the cleo
trically operated tray arrives through
a trap door in the top of the table.
When closed this tray looks like two
ordinary silver covers on the table.
BY pressing another button, the tray
with its dish Is carried around the
central portion of the table. AS the
dish arrives in front OF each guest.
the host touches q third button, which
stops 1t while the guest is helping
himself. The dish passes all around
the table In this way, and then. on
again pressing the first button, it dis
appears through the table and returns
to the kitchen.

SELECT GOOD LAYING STOCK

In keeping chickens much depends

safest way is to use eggs from hens
that are known to be hardy. The only
absolutely sure way of making selec.

the experts of the Maine agricultural
station, is by means of data obtained
from the use of trap nests. Only in
v~estigators and an occasional poultry
man, however, can afford the equip

operating trap nests, but every poul

for breeding during the pullet year
While the chickens from such eggs
are generally not so large at maturity
as those from older hens, they do not
appear to lack constitution or vigor

they are not desirable for breeding
purposes.
Pullets which begin laying first OF

not the largest birds of any particular
breed that are the best, but usually
