HOPE FOR THE BALD HEAD
Sewing Hairs on scaIps 10 Proving
suceessfvl-Flne Gold Wires
Are Used.

A method Of sewing hairs in the
human scalp in s Of partial or
total badness has been successfully
used in several Instances by Doctor
Szekely, at the hospital of Saint Ste
plane at Budapest, and q report ap-
pears In the London Times.
The number Of hairs planted" in
the head of a patient has been as
many as $4,000. One hundred hairs
are drawn through punctures in the
scalp to every square centimeter, and
as both ends are left free, the num-
Der is thus 200, or over one thousand
to each square inch. Very fine gold
wires are used, n lve-hundredth OF
an inch in diameter, and fine long
hairs from a woman's head r at
tached at the middle to these. The
gold loop or knot acts as IN anchor"
and after sterilization is introduced
into the simultaneous tissue, where
It Is slightly twisted. and holds the
hair permanently in position. 1t is
stated that 500 hairs can thus be in
troduced into the scalp within three
quarters Of an hour.
Doctor Szekely has designed a spe-
cial instrument for introducing and
fixing the gold wires. The latter are
so light and so fine that the total
mount Of gold in the scalp after
planting" $4,000 hairs is only one
gramme. The hair is stated to appear
perfectly natural, and a capsule Of
tissue appears to form around each
gold wire knot. The Inflammation
resulting from the treatment entirely
disappears in from ten to twelve days,
and in no case, SO far, has any In
tense Inflammation or suppuration re-
suited. The hair can be washed,
brushed and treated with oil in the
ordinary way. and n Of the earliest
patients 10 treated, q lady. has re-
tained her hair intact, with the orig
inal luster and ae1ibility. for over
seven years.

STOLE TO GET NEW START
Bank Cashier Experiences overpower-
Ing Impulse to Get Some Place
and Start Life Anew.

A bank teller In a middle western
state grew weary OF the narrow, cir
cumscribed life in the town where he
lived; he wanted wider interests, q
new start In q new place. but a start
with capital so he could push him
self ahead. He took s35 900 Of the
banks funds, jumped into his automo-
bile and started for Mexico (this was
before the present revolution across
the Rio Grande had reached such seri-
Gus proportions) across Kansas, Ok
lahoma and Texas. He expected to
make a clean getaway by using a
motor car instead Of taking a train,
forgetting that an auto a be traced.
The surety company at ono put an
inspector on his trail, and the man
was captured in Texas when he was
almost at Laredo. ready to cross the
border.
OF the sum he stole, $4,000 was re-
covered in the actual wrappers in
which he had taken It from the bank.
The automobile was recovered and
sold, and the proceeds used to make
up for part Of the money he had spent.
This cashier Is now serving q long
sentence in prison merely because he
experienced an o~verpowering impulse
TO 60 some place and start life anew.

Robbed to Play Poker.

In one Of the southern states Q
man whose habits were bad, robbed
an express company of several thou
sand dollars. Instead of decamping
he remained in the city. He con-
fessed to the theft and said he had
lost the money playing poker. The
surety company sent a man to prose
cute the thief. He found the de.
faulter had been receiving a good sal
airy from the express company and
that there was no eason for his
taking the money. Further ~investiga-
ton revealed the fact that the county
attorney had sat in the poker game
and won most Of the money; the
other players were friends Of the
county attorney. The surety company
dropped the case at once and paid the
express company the amount OF the
loss.
