Music Affects Hair
An Interesting Discovery

If you want to escape badness don't
play the cOrnet or trombone. but con-
fine your musical efforts to the piano,
violin. harp, violoncello or double bass
This advice sums up the interesting
and extremely important discoveries
which science has made about the eff
feet of different kinds OF music on the
hair.
Professor Henri de Parvlle, the emf
nent French physicist, is the man re-
sponsible for these discoveries He de-
clares that the well-known action of
music on the nervous system affects
the nutrition OF the bodily tissues and
thus has an influence on the hair. To
support this novel theory he has n great
array of facts collected from observa
tons of the heads Of a large number
Of musicians.
The influence Of music upon the hair
Is not always the same. The growth
Of the hair is stimulated or checked
or stopped entirely according to the
kind Of musical vibrations to which q
is exposed
Playing the piano or the violin, ac-
cord.hg to Professor de Parville, is es-
pecially beneficial to the hair. This
he says. accounts for the luxuris nj
masses Of hair which almost Invariably
cover the heads OF male pianists and
violinists.
The music of the violoncello. the harm
and the double bass Is also stimulatina
to tho hair, but to less degree.

ton and consequently their locks are
quite likely to show very perceptible
thinning by the. age of fifty.
The harm done to the hair by music
according to Professor de Parville',
views is among the players of brass
instruments.
Those who make mucn use of the cor.
net and horn advance rapidly to bald
ness. Players OF the trombone-par
