IN my Introductory article last
week did not have space 20
explain the structure Of the hui
man hair. To understand the i'm.
portance OF combing. brushing.
trimming and smuggling the hair in
the right way it is necessary TO dis.
cuss the physiology OF the hair
somewhat.
Comb!ng and brushing seem TO
be so simple as TO need 40 sugges-
tons, yet comparatively few people
know how 10 do II correctly and
with the best possible results. The
object is twofo.d-to rid the hair
of accommodations Of foreign matter
and to exercise the scalp. bringing
increased circulation in tho blood
vessels and stimulating the hair
appendagcs into greater activity.
Combing and brushing should be
done both morning and evening,
when the blood is not so much
needed elsewhere.
In selecting proper combs and
brushes usually the best Is the
cheapest. regardless OF price. Two
styles OF combs should be used.
one with coarse. blunt, smooth
teeth, wide apart TO disentanele the
hair; another finer 70 exercise il.
Never force the comb through the
hair. breaking II; a little patience
will straighten out the tangles.
The brush should have strong hris-
ties two inches long. Il should be
used gently and not pressed against
the scalp. Always brush away
from the scalp, not on It. drawing
the brush through the hair both
over and under It.
Combs and brushes must always
be kept thoroughly clean and ster.
ilized, and should be used by but
one person. They can be sterilized
by dipping in boiling hot water,
then in cold, or any other steriliz-
ing solution such as washing soda
in water, carbolic acid, etc. A
damp brush laid with bristles down
will last longer and keep in better
condition.
SApcI iellSe demonstrates tnGI
trimming the hair has a tendency
10 promote its growth. lust why
this is so Is hard to explain ply
siologically, since all growth is at
the papiila, and the hair after leav-
ing the follicle undcrgOcs no
structural change that can affect
its growth. Seemingly Nature
makes greater effort 10 replace that

plying more nutriment 10 the root.

1t finally reaches point where 1t
can no longer draw nourisbment
when 1t starves and falls out. Dur.
Ing this time, the lower part Of the
loi'icle collapses, the papilla shrinks

not for the fact that when one tries
70 melt tin-foil II instantly turns into
a fine brown powder. This has
given rise TO n belief among many
persons, who have not pursued the
subject further, that the material
may be solidified under great pres
sure and then put to some manu-
featuring use, though what use 1t is
difficult TO surmise
The truth is that tin-foil is nut to
but one use: this is the manufacture
OF solder.
Dealers in metal scrap pay for
waste tin-foil sometimes as high as

now selling for about SO cents

There is also cheaper grade known
as "ffty-ffty' or half and half"

ing samples Of this broth" it's rela-
tive proportions of tin and lead can
be ascertained. If too heavy, pure
tin is added; If too light, more lead.
until the proper proportions Of these
metals for solder is obtained.
Even under the most approved
smelling methods there Is loss OF
about 20 per cent In the oxidation
OF tfn-foil: owing to it's inflamibility
it is therefore no wonder that in

come TO the conclusion it cannot be

Through it the hair shaft grows.
II is surrounded and supported by
two layers OF connective tissue. the
fbres of the outer layer running
up and down, while those Of the
inner run around it.
The papilla is a conical shaped
projection of connective tissue up
ward through the base OF the folli-
Gle, and is the productive organ of
the hair.
The sebaceous glands consist OF
from TWO TO six sacs, connecting by
a single duct with the follicle just
beneath the dermis, and covered by
membrane from the skin. These
sacs contain cells Of varied compo-
sition. with clear protoplasm and
minute fat granules. These fat
cells increase in their contents
until they burst open as they reach
the ducts into which they discharge
their contents, known as sebum.
This secretion resembles in it's con-
sistency soft butter. its compost
tion being about three-tenths water,
siS-tenths albumen and epithelial
debris and the balance fat and
fatty acids.
This sebum is carried by the
ducts into the upper part OF the
follicle and packed around the
hair, protecting the delicate lorna
ton from the elements, while the
fatty cells are carried into the hair
by capillary attraction, and also
upon the outside OF the hair and

The hair shaft is that portion ex-

The root is that portion con.
