The Reason Why.

This difference in the complexion OF
people is due TO the varying amount Of
pigment or coloring material In the
cells of which the skins of all animals
are made. Very light people have very
little pigment very dark people. those
with dark eyes and black hair. have n
great deal of this coloring material
I'm their cells.
A great many people are neither
light nor very dark. They have less
than the dark c~omplexioned people
and more than the light compleyioned
people. When the hair turns gray
IL is because the pigment has disap-
peared. As this is due to the loss of
this coloring material. DARK complex
Toned people turn gray sooner than
light complexioned people. The strue-
ture of the skin showing how these
cells are made in layers can be seen
by examining the skin with a micro
scope.
