WOMEN INVADING
BALDPATE CLASS
Modern Cooking Methods are
Blamed by Philadelphia
for Loss Of Locks.

PHILADELPHIA. March A.
Feminine prowess Is branching out
into new territory.
Several Of the fashionable" hair
dressers state that women are be-
ginning to get bald.
What the women are going to do
about 1t could not be ascertained, as
all OF them questioned on the sub
ject Indignantly denied that there is
anything wrong with their "perma-
nent" wavy tresses.
They united in saying that II
other women are losing their hair
as the result of repeated "bobbing,"
ironing and marching, ,ney can
look out for themselves.
But those are not the main rea-
sons for growing badness among
women, according to a well.known
hirsutory artist, who stated that
modern cooking methods are at the
root OF all the trouble.
Lots Of red meat in the diet will
work wonders. he says, and golf
before and after eating will send the
red corpuscle chasing up to the
scalp to make the hair sprout like
Jacks beanstalk.
DR.. Alfred Gordon, noted Philadel.
phia alienist. thinks that low
state of nutrition" Is one Of the
prime factors contributing to the
exodus OF hair.
