KEEP YOUR HAIR IN AND
 DANDER DOWN

DANDER DOWN
 At this writing one factor of the vitamin B complex is tentatively named "anti gray hair factor at least as regards the influence upon animals. Incidentally 1t is a good idea to use vitamin B com plex, containing all of the entities or factors, whenever vitamin B is used at all, for maintaining good nutrition or for overcoming de- ficiencies of health or nutrition due to insufficient intake of vitamins, as the complex is supplied in vita min B tablets leach containing 150 international units of B) or vita min B complex syrup, each tea spoonful containing 250 units of B.
 If the nails and perhaps the skin present evidences of faulty nutri- tion, 1t is well to take not only vitamin B complex (B-1, B2 or G and all the dozen or more other factors) but also sunshine vitamin D, as these are found in irradiated yeast tablets, each tablet contain ing the vitamin B complex of non- fermentable or non-fermenting yeast and 500 units of sunshine vitamin D.
 Dandruff and Falling Hair is evi dence of nutritional deficiency, in my opinion. The supplementary feeding described is indicated in most cases, but special local treat ment of the scalp is desirable, too. In the experience of thousands of my readers, and in my own ex- perience in practice, the best rem- dy for dandrrlff and falling hair is this salve:
 Precipitated sulphur, one dram (teaspoonfuD; Salicylic acid, 20 grains Gone scruple) 1-3 teaspoon fuD; Ointment of Rose Water, ONE OUNCE.
 Properly made, this salve is so smooth that no particle can be felt when it is rubbed between the finger and thumb.
 Every evening go over a dif- ferent quarter of the scalp, parting the hair here and there and care- fully rubbing 8 little of the salve into the scalp (not the hair) with the tips of the fingers. Once a week instead of an application of the salve take a shampoo. Continue this for a regular six-weeks course. Such a course twice or in some cases three times in the year will control dandruff and falling hair. It is tedious but it is efficient. If you are too indifferent to go to so much trouble to correct the trouble, try daily application to the resorcin and ten grains of salicylic scalp of a solution of ten grians of acid in plain alcohol or your fa- vorite toilet wated. This may be sprayed forcibly upon the scalp from an atomizer tip almost touch ing the scalp. Sometimes resorcin stains white, gray or blonde hair reddish or yellowish, but the stain disappears after the resorcin is discontinued. The solution may leave the scalp too dry. If so, apply few drops of the Skin Oil daily, as already described.
 Inhaling
 When you inhale cigarette smoke do you take it into your stomach or lungs or both?
 (NGiss I. M. O.
 Answer-I never inhale it, except second hand. Smoke inhaled enters the windpipe, bronchial tubes, air. cells of lungs. Only way smoke could get into stomach is by swallowing, and very little could be swallowed in any circumstance. Objection to in- haling tobacco smoke is that it ex- poses larger area of mucous mem brane to the fumes, and hence in- creases the amount of carbon mon- oxide or other harmful constituents absorbed. If you want to break the tobacco habit, send stamped en- velop bearing your address, and ask for monograph on Tobacco Habit" l" Goats MIX
