Baldness (alopecia is t h e medical name) isnatural to - ma'ny people in bid age when the loss of hair is an ac -companiment and ah indication of the eenefal weakening BB-WASHBiiEN 0f tissuts through out the entire body. When a person loses more or less of the hair io which he has become accustomed, and this loss is not associated with the changes character istic of old age, the condition is Jooked upon as a definite disease condition. Such baldness may result from disease of the scalp or some disease which has affected the general nutrition of the body typhoid fever, for example. . In other, cases, in fact in the majority of cases, no cause can be found: vet. in these cases. we do know what happens to the scalp. "Between the skin of the scalp, and the skull there is a thick layer of fat. As age comes on, '"this fat layer becomes thinner and the scalp becomes more firmly attached to the skull and less mov able; the skin becomes more tense, es pecially on too of the head, and with these changes the hair in this region be comes thinner and thinner. Finally, in extreme cases, the hair disappears and the crown becomes bald and glistening. This is what haooens when old ace comes on ; premature, baldness is the same thing, omy li occurs ac ait age earner man incsc changes are expected to occur. Statistics tend to show that heredity js one of the main causes of baldness. Mis treatment of the hair is also an import ant factor. Daily wetting of the hair, keeping it poor m oil by the excessive use of soap and water, failure to keep it clean, excessive exposure to sunlight, the indiscriminate use of drugs, partic ularly the patent ' hair tonics, and too much treatment by barbers and hair dressers are all causes of baldness in persons predisposed to such a condition. Heavy and tight hats interfere with the circulation and there can be no "doubt that this is a cause. But the most im portant of all the causes of baldness is dandruff an inflammation of the skin and the glands at the base of each hair. Few people consider that the hair should receive as much care as do the teeth and the nails. Others overdo the matter of making applications to the scalp, apply ing strong alcoholic or other so-called tonic preparations too frequently. Oth ers wash the hair too often or shampoo it too often. Occasional washing of the hair (often enough to keep it clean) is beneficial, but if ft is washed toe often the natural oil from the hair and scalp is withdrawn and harm results. The best authorities advise shampooing the scalp not more, of ten than once a week and not less often than dhce a month. On these occasions nothing better can be used than warm water and castile soap. Massaging the scalp is also a beneficial procedure as it prevents the circulation from becoming sluggish ahd this tends to keep the scalp and hair in a healthy con dition. Such unhygienic practices as curling the hair by winding it about hot curling irons or doing it up in curling papers over night must be mentioned and con demned. Also, vibratory and electrical treatments, tonics to "feed the . hair Hoots," nearVfoot oil, mange cures, are, m neany every case, ol little or no value and may be harmful For women, if the hair is found to be cracking .at the ends and becoming thin and irregular, the ends should be cut off. " First, the general health of the patient must be improved. Any constitutional disease, caused of worry, indigestion, or nervousness, must be treated. If dan- arutt is abundant on the scalp, one ofl the best applications is probably a sblu 2. bf borax (60 grains) jvith glycerine (300 mmims) in water (6 ounces). , Cer tain tonics, suck as iron, arsenic, and sul phur, have been claimed to benefitthe nutrition of the skin and scalp, ' but these had I best be taken udder 'a Iddctbr!s di-f rections. ?
