PREMATURE BALDNESS.

One may lose ones hair before middle life without any evident dis, ease of the scalp or any disorder of the general health. Such badness may begin as early as the 18th year. Very often the parts of the temples are the earliest affected, the hair line receding. In those who part their
 the hair may be the first thing to att tract attention. The individual hairs thin at first and then the whole in trun disappear and leave bald spaces At the same time a progress sive tightening of the scalp upon the skull will be observable in many cases, the scalp having lost that cushion of fat that is under it in early life. If one can move his scalp easily over his skull he is entitled to have hope that all is not lost; but if the scalp is tense and in1movabIe he
 may as we'll resign himself to hair less fate. The hair fall is progressive through years; decades even, may elapse before there is absolute bald ness The tonsure may not enlarge for long time; and then it is likely to increase rapidly in size.
 Heredity has good deal to do with this kind of badness. Fathers and sons for generations may grow bald early, or the inherited peculiar 1ty may have to be traced to the grandparents of some collateral line. Not all the children of one family in which baldness is hereditary are bald; but it will manifest itself in two or three fthem- Chronic eczema or other skin diseases in the years pre- cedins youth also predispose to this badness Insufficient or improper care of the scalp; daily sousing of the hair with water, combined with improper drying of the hair after ward; sweating of the head either spontaneously or on account of the wearing of unventllated or hot head covering; constant mental strain either or account of intellectual work or worry, the wearing of stiff un- yielding hats; gout; all diseases low ering the general nutrition of the body; dissipation; such are, in one case or another, the causes of prema- ture badness

(Continued on Page e.)


 1915, and a special charter was grant | ed By the superior court of Fulton County, Georgia July 1, 1916. Ac-
 cording to the circular the order has 1 spread into nearly every state in the | union and has a membership of thou
 sands.
 The circular gives as the purpose 1 Of the Klan "the complication of a pure and practical patriotism ..... | the preservation of American ideals ! and institutions and the mainten- ance of white supremacy" It tells 1 that only native-born white Aueri- can citizens who believe in the tenets | of the Christian religion and owe no | allegiance of any degree to any for eign government or institution are | eligible to membership.
 The circular also says:-
 Tt is non-sectional, non political and non sectarian. It is a purely patriotic fraternal organization men prominent in both the demo- cratic and republican parties, includ- | ing members of the national congress,
 are leaders in its organization. Its sections lies in the fact that it is strictly an American institution of | and for white American citizens, pledged to fundamental American ideals and institutions"
 According to the circulars. the or ganization wages war on no individ-
 ual or organization because of creed and "It takes no part as an organi- zation in any political or religious
 controversy and it comedies the right of every man to think, vote and wor- shp God as he pleases."
 The circular also states that in dividualS have committed acts Of violence under cover of darkness and shielded by masks and robes some
 what resem bling the Klan's and it declares that these were not members and that the Klan is a law abiding organization and that members are sworn to uphold the law and any
 member who might break his oath would be banished from the Klan. Among the additional purposes of the Klan are preventing the causes of
 mob violence and lynchings, prevent ing unwarranted strikes led by foreign agitators, securing more pa triotic immigration laws and separa- ton of church and state.
 It Is asserted that the organizers who are in Connecticut take no fees, but that each party joining makes a donation of s10, of whcih an orga- nizer has $4 and superior takes $1 more and the $ remaining goes into the imperial treasury. It is also al- legged that the Klan itself owns the company which makes it regaIa, sold, it is said, at S6.5o and stated to cost but $1.25 to make. It is believed that in two years donations and sales of regala may have yielded close to $1O,oOo,000. Of late the Klan

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS.

Will you kindly tell me whether 1t IS dangerous to kiss a person who has cancer on the cheek? Also is it all right to sleep with them? I ex- pect to visit very dear friend SC af- ficted. I have always kissed her but have not visited her of late on ac- count of this cancer, and I feel she would be hurt if I did not give her the usual kiss that I have given her for 25 years.
 Answer-To kiss once or twice is not dangerous But do it very occa- siona1ly. Skin is the only form of cancer which may possibly be infec- tious; but, like tuberculosis, the con- tact must be intimate, frequent and prolonged, before infection is possi- ble. You may sleep with your friend; but this I should, if possible, avoid

Workers are donating part of their wages to the famine sufferers. The peasants in the Jaraslav district, where the harvest was fairly good, have donated 4o,ooo,0oo pounds of potatoes which constitutes their entire surplus. All they asked in return was salt, of which there is a great short age, and a few clothes.
