The popular belief that the hair Of
persons laboring under great mental
grief or terror changes color seems to
be unfounded. Under certain condi-
lions of bodily health the coloring mat
ter of the hair ceases to be supplied,
and the hair may consequently become
gray or white I'm very short time. In
these cases, however, 1T is only the grow
ing hair that has no color, the hair as
IL gradually rises from the root is gray.
while that which is outside the cuticle
remains its original color. No well au-
thenticated case Of sudden change I'm
the color of the hair is mentioned In
the transactions of the Royal Soci-
ety." extending over 200 years, where
as IL any such circumstance had &C.
Cured IL is almost certain It would
have been recorded. The case of Marie
Antoinette, which is most frequently
cited, does not rest upon evidence suf-
ficiently strong to warrant belief
