Many people believe that blonde, oi

hair constancy. A person Without hair
is not devoid of character; far from It
The disposition of the average bald
headed man is to show such solicitude
for the welfare of others, that he neg
lects himself. A germ causes baldness.
Prof. Sabouraud, of Paris, France, ln
nocculated a rabbit with Dandruff germs,
causing it to become totally bald In five
weeks' time. To rid the scalp of these
dangerous germs It Is necessary to apply

DON 'T KICK
There's 'no use to kick.
You can't make it stick: '
Only once in a very gre^t while.
You lower your stock'
By cantankerous knock
When jou might succeed with! a

Kind words are the best,' '
The /orld will attest,'
So If you are striving to "win '
And would brlngi in the Bheaves
Just, roll up your sleeves
And tackle the job with a grin!
The ear'h. moans with'paiin
Every time you complain.
Then'search! in your soul for a
song.
Be'smiling "like June,
Your heart filled with tune; 1
You'll find much, in life that's not
wrong! | '
