RHINE GOLD MINES
TO BE WORKED AGAIN

Weisenburg makes first written
mention of 1t about A. d. S6S.
In the early part of the last
century there were numerous gold
washeries on the banks Of the up
per Rhine. Between 1904 and 1884
no less than 300 pounds Of fine
gold were brought to the grand
ducal mint at Karlsruhe.
In 1882 there were 400 gold
washers at work in Baden alone.
They obtained, according to rec
ords. approximately $4,000 pounds
Of gold dust in ten years. AS late
as 1897 an occasional gold washer
made a days wage with his crude
apparatus.
Renewed attempts are to be
made with more scientific methods
to work the Rhine gravel for its
gold treasure.

One day a trading schooner put

Owing to the strange geograph-

impossible for the dwellers on GER.

This sort OF thing led to all

Somewhere in Fiji there exist
rich gold deposits. but no one
knows their whereabouts, for the
natives are extraordinarily reticent
regarding this subject. The fol-
lowing remarkable incident is told
by Colonel St. Johnston in his
newly published book entitled,
South Sea "reminiscences"
One day a trader brought him
two specimens of quartz richly
veined with gold. They had been
hidden in one of number of
bags of copra dried cocoanuU
brought in by some natives; the
object being, not to smuggle the
gold, but to add to the weight OF

BL A MI ED
FOR MOST
BALDNE.SS
Cannot Explain All
G a s e s, However.
Bandeau Declared
BRINGING Badness
to Women.

INTEREST has of late been
aroused by the statement
- that the bandeau vas lead
ing to badness in women.
Women are decidedly the more
fortunate sex in regard to loss
Of hair, and up till now have en-
joyed greater immunity from
badness than the male sex.
Even the advance OF years
seems to affect the two sexes
differently, badness being only
too frequent in men, whereas in
women there rs usually tnin-
ming without actual loss Of hair.
Various explanations have been
given for this curious difference,
and it has been suggested that it
may be due to an internal secre-
ton from the ductless glands.
The greater care and attention
which women bestow on their
hair undoubtedly helps to pre-
serve it. The health Of the hair
in women is favored by two
other factors. The female scalp
is thicker and contains more fat,
and the pull which the long hairs
exert gently stimulates their
roots.
or the causes which have from
olden times been held responsible
for badness heredity takes the
first place.
This family influence is observed
in the very form the badness
takes, it's starting point. extent,
etc, being often a counterpart of
q grandparent, or near relative.
This hereditary tendency mani
tests itself in the shape of the
skull and the degree to which the
scalp is bound down to the under
lying parts.
The close adherence Of the scalp
to the bone diminishes the nour-
ishment of the area from which
the hair springs, so that an In
sufficient blood supply is brought
to 1t.
While the skin on the sides as
well as the lower part of the back
of the head where the hair is still
growing is easily movable even
in advanced cases of badness, It
is firmly fixed in the parts un-
covered by hair.
Heredity tendency alone Is, how
ever, not sufficient to explain the
ailment in question.
A further factor which is COM
monty associated with badness is
seborrhea-a condition In which
there is an oversecretion Of the
lubricating glands which are to be
found all over the body in connec-
ton with hairs.
Normally the hair constitutes
the chief element, and the gland
secretes just sufficient oily sub
stance to lubricate 1t. In the con-
dition known as seborrhea this
relationship is reversed, whereas
the hair becomes fine, soft and
short. 1t is often wrongly sup
posed that II this down is still
visible a complete new growth can
be obtained.
In addition to these main fac
tors, many ccntributary. causes
have been suggested to account
for loss Of hair.
There Is reason to believe that
premature badness in men has
become more prevalent since the
fashion of oiling or greasing the
hair has become obsolete and re-
placed by the habit of daily SOUS
ing the scalp with water.
The wearing Of heavy and tight
fitting hats in men and bandeaus
in women interferes to a certain
extent with the blood supply of
the scalp, and although this is
only temporary, 1t is nevertheless
q frequent recurring cause.
