@. / am the daughter Of an old

B. B.
A. It would depend upon your
age. The pension bureau says that
there is no law granting q pension

waste stems or ribs of the leaves,
and parts of the leaves themselves,
which result from the stripping Of
tobacco for the manufacture Of ci-
gars. or for smoking and chewing
tobacco. The stalks include the
main stem and branches Of the
plant. The stems are frequently
ground and sold as q fertilizer, and
the product is valuable for its nitro
gen and potash. The nitrogen con-
tent ranges from 2 to 3 per cent
and the potash from 6 to 10 per
cent.

Les 4 Hair.

Iooo q HAN.
Thousands Of people who had IN
nuensa IN the recent epidemic sui
fefed loss Of hair following the ILL
ness. This continued in many
cases for months after the illneSs.
But the hair grew again with its
original vigor after recovery Of the
original health. The hair il likely
to suffer in any severe acute infec-
nous fever such Is influenza, typh-
Old. pneumonia. scaflet fever; but
almost invariably it grows In
again after the patient RECEIVERS.
svsn though the temporary loss
amounts to almost complete bald
ness. Nor does the clipping of the
hair in such illnesses in any way
alter matterA An Infection which
may begin rather like an acute in
fictitious fever but which is Of in
definite duration, is syphilis; in
this disease, too, there il generally
marked loss Of hair. In all OF
thase instances the falling out OF
the hair is due to impairment OF
the nutrition Of the hair follicles or
roots by the systemic poisoning
produced by the germs Of the dis
ease.
Several years ago . drug (thal-
linn acetate) was introduced ~ .
remedy for the relief of the excess
sive sweating associated with tuber-
culosis and other constitutional in
fections or secondary pus-germ in
factions. 1t was found that many
persons taking this drug suffered
loss of hair; which ceased only
when the drug was discontinued.
Badness Of the common type
may be said to be Of systemic or
constitutional origin IN every case,
never . local condition merely.
Therefore NO mere hair tonic" CT
remedy or treatment applied to the
scalp can be properly said to re-
store the hair.
There are certain local conditions
which do cause special types OF
badness, however. Among them
are tiny (ringworm). favus. ecze-
ma, and seborrheic Inflammation
Of the scalp Jolly dandruff). Such
local disease conditions Of course
call for appropriate local treat
ment by the physician or skin spe.
cialist, and not by BARRIERS, hair.
dressers and self-styled beauty doc.
tors. II the hair is worth saving
at all, the advice of a trained ply
stefan should be sought,
