From your description, massage of the scalp would be the first of hair on that crown. and a good hair tonic which would stimulate the activity of the hair follicles would be the next. gentle massage for ten minutes, three times a week, will accomplish wonders. It also increases the circulation of blood and with the use of the tonic I shall advise for you will certainly increase the growth of the hair very greatly.

Death By Her Own Hands Is
 Current Repolt
Shakers Said to Plan Chlo- roform Story in Order to Save Sister Marchant from Stain of Suicide.
Special from United Press)

(SDeC1dl IFOIA OuALCu z SHss''J
 Kissimmee. Fla. sept. 16-That SIS ter Sadie l.. Marchant met death at her own hands and that Brother p. B. Gillette and Sister Elizabeth Sears, fellow members in the Shaker sect, deliberately planned to confess to chloroforming her rather than permit her, to lapse from the rigid religion of the Shakers to stain her memory, was the report which gained credence here, today The Shaker religion con- demns the suicide to eternal disgr ace. Heartbroken oyer the death of a dear ly beloved friend, it was believed that the two determined themselves to take the blame for her death so that her friends in the sect would continue to revre her memory.
 The brother and sister, who say they "aided the passage of the spirit from the body of their sister in the faith of administering chloroform to end her sufferings from tuberculosis, stood steadfastly by their story. to- day. Within 8 few weeks the murder charge against them will be taken up by the Grand Jury. However, 1t was generally believed here, today. that no jury made of citizens of this sec tfon would hold them on the murder charge. Respected by their neighbors and strong in their simple faith, the community is with them to a man.

 The ahnofuaily dry sl<in is usually wrinkied and is frequently a sallow skin as well Sometimes, too, brown spots appear and are very obstinate about yielding to treatment Even if a good bleach is found which fades them out they refuse to stay away more than a few weeks
 In nine cases out of ten, the woman who possesses skin of this .descrip- ton pians out and applies exactly the wrong treatment She reads about the different bleaching lotions aud applies them one after another only to aggra- vate her trouble, because each prepara- ton does its share in drying out the skin still more, and intensi6es the orig mal cause of all the difficulty.
 The best method for the woman whose ddn is dry Is to avoid the use of anything that will extract the nat ural oil from the skin and, instead, sup ply the system with the oil which 1t lacks. This can De done by taking olive oil internally and by the external appli- cation of nutrient oils which can be readily absorbed by the skin The reg ular dose of olive oil twice each day will not only nourish the system, supply. the necessary oil to the tissues and ere ate better action of the cuticie, but it will also stimulate the action of the liver and kidneys.

A bite of crisp cracker helps to destroy the oily taste if taken imme- diately after the dose.
 A warm tub bath twice a week, fol- lowed by an oil rub over the entire body, will be found beneficial. and if the oil is heated the skin will absorb it more readily.
