A CwnbiiwtiM In Whioti W wmmi H m U m B«*t of Man. Baldness is a matter o f headgear. The doctors are fairly well agreed spun that. Men grow bald more frequently than women because of the hats they wear. It ia true that women wear bigger and often heavi er luts than men, but they attach them to their hair and not to their scalps; hence they permit ventila tion and do not constrict the veins, while men’s hats, with their hard, tight fitting brims, not only permit no air to enter, but constrict the blood vessels all around theehead. Consider the scalp o f man. It is s thin layer o f muscles covered with thick skin, stretched over s hard, bony surface. Through this flow small arteries leading to a network of capillaries which end in veins. The skin is full of the follicles or roots of hairs and of glands which secrete copious supplies of grease and perspiration. These hair roots and glands need a plentiful supply of blood, and anything that tends to cut off this supply tends to im- The tight band of a hat constricta all the arteries, but to a much leaaer extent these are more deeply •eated and have strong muscular vails, while the veins are cloae to the surface and have no muscle in their thin walls. The checking of the flow of blood through the veins causes it to stagnate in the capil laries, to back up, as it werp. And the top of the head is jnst that part of the body which the blood finds most difficult to resist, as it has to be pumped up higher there than anywhere else. Thus there is congestion of ve nous blood in the scalp. The hat also keeps the head hot, another bad condition. The scalp, again, is that part of the body which is most exposed to dirt. A woman’s hair .gets dirty also, but it is so thick that it protects the scalp from the dirt. A man’s short hair, on the contrary, catches all the dirt, bnt does not prevent it from reaching the scalp. And the scalp of the average man, with its grease and perspiration, ia an ideal. culture medium for the growth of microbe*.
