Falling Hair.

Falling hair Is one of the beauty
problems which seems to trouble men
as well as women While it is only
natural for the old hair to fall, it
should be replaced by new hair. When
it continues to fall excessively and is
not replaced, there is real cause for
alarm.
The problem of falling hair is quite
often one which belongs in the field
of the physician rather than in that
of the beauty specialist, for in many
cases constitutional treatments, as we'll
as local applications. are needed. One
of the most frequent causes is nervous
ness The hair is sure to become
starved unless the blood carries to it
the proper nourishment, and this IS
impossible unless proper kinds of food
are taken into the body. Fresh green
vegetables are essential to hair health
After making sure that the body
is getting the foods which will give
the blood plenty of nourishment to
carry to the hair, the next step is
to stimulate the scalp in such a way
that it will take the nourishment which
the blood is carrying. Hence the i'm
portance of massage and brushing
which stimulate the circulation of the
blood through the scalp.

daily massage massage which makes
the scalp itself move. For the brush
ing use brush with long, fairly stiff
bristles and brush the hair upward and
outward to the very ends of the hair
Ir this method of brushing the scalp
is raised and this exercising of the
scalp is the most important result of
brushing
Much has been said about the value
of the direct rays of the sun as a
cure for falling hair and scalp trou-
bles. That this method is accepted
by physicians is evidenced by the fact
that one of their most important
treatments for scalp and hair trou-
blues is the use of ultraviolet rays.
These treatments not only clear up
certain diseases of the scalp, but they
also do much toward building up the
general health.
Many of my readers complain of
perspiring scalp and this is nearly
always accompanied by falling hair
and badness. The cause is an acid
condition of the system and the only
way to correct 1t is through diet.
Eating an abundance of green vege-
tables and very little meat is the best
way to combat an acid condition.
The following tonic is very good for
oily hair, which is falling more rap
idly than 1t is being replaced by new
hair. 1t may be applied two or three
times week, and after applying mas

Harry Kellar, one of the great ma
gicians, told this story to the late Harry
Houdini on two different occasions.
Though both these men dealt in mys-
tification-that is, deception of the
senses of others-they were highly
truthful. Moreover, they were skeptical
in matters of surernormal import. That
Kellar told the story, and Houdini pre-
served it, indicates they yielded consid-
cradle credence to it.
It was on a trip around the world
that Harry Kellar became closely ac-
quainted with Ling Look, the flre-eater
and sword swallower, and Yamadura,
his brother, whose specially was doing
cabinet manifestations and rope escapes.
The brothers were not born as their
names indicated. Kellar believed them
to be natives of Budapest and their
name to be Gueter.
Ling Look was one of the greatest art
lists in his line of his day His most
startling feat, perhaps, was to swallow
a red-hot sword. though another stunt
certainly was a thriller. In it, he fast
ened a long sword to the stock of a
musket. When he swallowed half the
blade, he fired off the musket and
the sword was driven suddenly down his
throat to the hilt.
The Kellar tour around the world
was destined to end fatally for Ling
Look and Yamadura. In China, an
| unusual seqeunce of events began.
1t. was Just before they we're to sail
from Shanghai to Hongkong that KEEL
lar and Yamadura visited bowling AL
ley at The Hermitage a pleasure re-
sort on the Bubbling Well road.
They watched the boWlers, particu-
larly a sea captain of tremendous
strength, who rolled huge ball as cas-
lily as If it were a pea and made strike
| after strike in succession.
Yamadura, who prided himself on his
| strength, watched the sailor rather en-
| Viously.
Il can handle as large ball as that
loafer can" he told Kellar. Whereupon,
Selling one Of the largest balls, he rolled
it down the alley with all his might.
1t had no sooner left his hand, how
ever, than he doubled up with pain and
| grasped his side. He was scarcely able
70 return to the ship. where he took To
his bed and died. He had ruptured an
artery and bled to death internally.
The captain of the vessel was much
sverse TO keeping the body on board. IT
was only by great persuasion that Kel-
lar and Ling Look got his consent ia
carry it to Hongkong.
Ling Look naturally began the voyage
4 in deep depression. But suddenly he
became excited.
II have heard my brother whistling, "
he said. He is not dead he is alive"
Now Ling Look and Yamadura were
accustomed TO call each other by Pc

His flute. his baton and his ability

as well known in the Capital as his
position on the Interstate Commerce

for himself a reputation that compares

music.

Aitchison is known the best.

the best organizations of its kind in

posed of examiners and other employees
of the commission.
Aitchison got the idea for this chorus
back in 1919. Two marble tablets in
memory of those in the commission
who lost their lives in the World War
were to besdedicated. A call was sent
out in the commission for all who could
sing to be present.
So impressed was Aitchison was the
voices he heard on that day that he
determined to organize his chorus.
At first women were included. but it
was soon made into an all-male or
ganization.
The Interstate Commerce Male Chorus,
under the personal direction of Com
missioner Aitchison, is now in its tenth
season. Twenty-eight formal concerts
have been given since it was started.
President and Mrs Coolidge had them
at the White House to sing. Congress
invited them to sing at the memorial
services this year to its dead. They
have been heard in concert at the Lii
brary of Congress. They have sung in
Washington. Philadelphia, New York
and Baltimore.
Through Aitchison'S friendship with
Fra Waedenschweiler, a Franciscan
monk living in Oregon, the chorus has
virtually its own composer. "Ecce Guam
Bonum." majestic piece of music
composed by him. is the hymn with
which the chorus closes all its concerts.
The commissioners own compost
tons also are sung by the chorus.
