Baldness Follows in Wake of In. t Rexpanagin: Los Angeles, Cal., Oct! ~Within 500 years there scarcely oy bea hair on any woman's 'head in the United States. Men will' lose their hair with- in 300 vears. This is the opinion of Dr. Carlton B. Wells, American brain specialist, who practices in Paris, and has making a study of the ef- feos of civilization upon hair. Dr. Wells goes on the theory that the further away the race gets "from using the head for a mere loLfing place for hair, the less hair there wil be. The development of the brain Power of the race will eliminate hair, "Statistics show that there are more bald men in the United States and France than in any other coun- try," says Dr. Wells. "This is cause the intefleet of the American and French people is developed to a igher point.' any of the brilliant women of to- day, are bald but for the wigs they wear, says Dr. Wells, THE HIRED GIRL'S WAY, The nights our hired girl stays home, An don't expect her beau t' call, She's jes' as nice as she oan be, © An' doesn't hustle round at all.

But in the kitchen I can stay, An she jes' tells the finest things Of soldiers fightin' every day, An' princes bold, an' evil kings. But when her beau is comin' up T" take her aut t' see a show, She makes us hustle through our tea, So's she cdn get dressed up to go.

Kaffir With Forty-six Wives. London, Oct. 11. ~-Adeording to the recent censils returns, out of 607,764 married men of the Bantu race, 516, 607 have only one wife each, 69.840 have two wives, 14.538 have three wives, 4,164 have four wives, and so on, until we come to a native gentle man who has ng fewer than forty-six wives. All that the statistics tell us about this "modern Solomon is that he is between thirty and thirty-five years of age, and lives in the Trans vaal. He easily ont-distances all his fellow-countrymen, for no one "els is returned as having more than twenty. eight wives. There are two men with this pumber, one being a Transvaal resident - who is not yet twenty-five years old, and the other a Free State native, being between twenty-five and thirty. Natal's best is twenty-three wives, fwo middle-aged natives being returned as having this number each. The Cape is quite out of it compared w'th the other provinces, for the best the Cape can show is a patriarch of over seventy-five years with twenty wives to his credit. Sign Erected What. is Treason?
