MASSAGING THE SCALP

Very frequently all the scalp needs
to produce a growth Of heavy, lus-
trous hair is little bit of daily sdmu-
lauon. Possibly all it requires is a
fairly thorough massage with the fin
ger tips. I have a theory which many
people laugh at, which is simply this
it you neglect any part Of your body
1t will actually feel the neglect and
suffer in consequence just as a neg
lected child suffers and shrinks and
remains undeveloped. II you do not
prize your hair, for instance, and If
you neglect it, it will certainly suffer
as a result.
! have seen this work out so often
that I assure you l quite believe my
own theory. But even if you do not.
you will recognize the value of lit
tie care. Whether you give your
scalp this care for sentimental or for
practical reasons does not matter at
all. The important thing is that you
should give it this daily stimulation
if it is not as heavy and thick and
lustrous as you desire.
Hair tonics, of course, are valuable
If they are any good at all. I mean
by that, different conditions of the
scalp require different sorts of tonics,
and your scalp will not benefit if you
give it oil when it needs astringents,
or something irritating when it needs
something soothing.
Massage is frequently as valua BILE
as tonics and sometimes of more val
ue. You may be in doubt about using
a tonic, but you need never hesitate
to massage the scalp, for massage is
always beneficial. 1t keeps the scalp
loose and healthy and it draws up the
fresh life-giving blood to the roots OF
the hair.
"A Reader.-Removing superflous
hair with an electric needle is such a
simple thing, there is no risk what
ever. You should have no trouble
finding beauty parlor where it is
done effectually. The needle is in
serted into the hair follicle until the
current destroys the root The hair
that is removed will never grow
again, but that does not mean that
you will never have the tendency tC
grow more hairs, though no hair will
grow in that particular place. No
you do not have to continue the treat
ment.

PHYSICAL DEFECTS IN CHILDREN.

Time and again careful investiga-
lions by competent medical authorities
have shown that children lose con-
siderable part of the educational ad-
vantages open to them because they
suffer from uncorrected physical de-
fects such as decayed teeth, enlarged
tonsils and adenoids, malnutrition, de-
fects of vision and the like.
But great as is this loss OF educa-
ton. it is not nearly so serious to the
child as it the after effect of such un-
corrected physical defects on the
childs physical development. Many
parents do not realize that neglect or
the teeth may lead to incurable heart
disease or Gripping rheumatism, that
adenoids may result not only in
chronic nasal catarrh, but in per-
manent Disagreement of the face, or
that failure to correct malnutrition
NAV stunt the child's growth and make
lis body more susceptible to disease.
Perhaps you may think that all this
is of little interest to you. Your child,
YOU believe, is we'll and strong. The
chances are against you. The results
Of an examination of school children
which was recently made by officers OF
the United States Public Health Serv-
ice, show many defects. The figures
are typical of those which similar eX
aminations have yielded in many diff
ferent parts of the United States, and
they show that very large number OF
school children are suffering from
physical defects.

written by no less famous q person
than Jerome k. Jerome. author of

Elmer Harris.
Perhaps the best exrlaration for
Miss Hobbs strange attsfuds to-
wards the sterner sex lies in her own
very vivid and unusual personality.
She was proud, independent, spirited,
and only to be won by someone
stronger than herself. Her attitude
was her unconscious defiance to the
men weaker and less determined than
herself. She was at heart, though
she never had remotely suspected the
fact, a very primitive woman, simply
waiting for someone with cave-man
qualities to subdue her strong pride.
