"XRE MICROBES I> YOUR SCAL
It Has Ben Proved That Microbt
Cause Baldness.
Professor Unna of Hamburg, Ge
many, and Dr. Sabourand, the lea<
ing French dertmatologist, discove
ed tha a microbe causes baldness
Their theory has time and aga:
been amply verified through reserc
experiments carried on under the o]
servation of eminent scientists. Th
microbe lodges in the Sebum, wliic
is the natural hair oil, and whe
permitted to flourish i destroys tl
hair follicles and in time the por<
takes on a shiny appearance. Who
entirely close, and the scalp gradual]
this happens there is no hope of tl
growth of hair being revived.
We have a remedy which will, v
honestly believe, remove dandruff.e:
terminate the microbe, promote goc
circulation in the scalp and arour
the hair roots, tighten and revitoli;

with its quaint motto, on the walls d
)f the Temple buildings. It is to the
3worn enemies of the Knights Templar,
the Saracens, oddly enough, that d
is we do, indeed, the greater part of li
pur mathematical knowledge as well.
When the Templars founded their a
aew monastery between Whitefriars ol
and Essex house in the Strand, tho t<
latter was, as its name implies, merely ii
a beach beside the silver Thames, and y
all around was open country, the site a
pf the present law courts being a large ii
field which was used as a tilting f<
ground by the knights. In later days, ei
when the men of law had taken over
the settlement of the Knights Tem- tl
plar, the students, who were resident , fi
In the Temple, were dependent on its ! c
kitchen for their daily meals. After a I b
hurried breakfast in the buttery at j 0
eight o'clock they would take their ! v
law books, and wander off along the ti
Strand, where, in summer time, they s?
lay under the trees and bushes studying
law. Some would row across the
river to the Surrey fields, and wander
through the open country.
Half an hour before dinner the panrer
man, who drew the daily supply
Df bread every morning from Westminster,
used to take a large ox horn
and walk along the river's tide, blowing
the horn as a signal to the student's
to return to the tomple for
dinner.
The panyer man, who was formerly
charged with the duty of winding the
horn, had also to provide the hall with,
mustard, pepper and vinegar, his annual
wages in 1638 amounting to $26.
Other useful members of the staff
were the chief wash pot and the under
wash pot, the chief turn broach, the
steward's servant and under turn spit;
the last named receiving $6 a year.
The horn now In use in the Middle
Temple posseses no antiquarian interest
in itself, dating back only some
ten years. It was brought over from
the Argentine by one of the members y
shortly before it was found necessary t]
to discontinue the use of the old one.
"Ye horn of ye Middle Temple" had ^
become so decrepit, through age and c
instant use, that the weird" and" fane
sunds it emitted were calculated t
ring It into ridicule. It had becom
mass of silver bands, which ha
een added from time to time to kee
. together, and close up the cracks i
s sides. But in spite of these band
le air still escaped so freely that th
arder who blew it had to place a w<
andkerchief over the horn ever
me he used it.
So the ancient hurn, which ha
aunded the welcome summons to dii
er in term for generations, wa
laced on the retired list, and now
nly sees the light on grand nights 1

t CURIOUS BITS

u i
n HUNTING A SHORT CUT TO
6 ! CHINA,
r. I
By A. W. MACY.
Columbus was not seeking a
e continent, but a short cut to
India and China. During his
second voyage he skirted the
coast of Cuba for several weeks ,
in the confident belief that he
was nearlng "the City of Cathay"
with all its golden treasures.
For more than two centuries
after his death navigators
sailed up and down the
eastern coast of North America
seeking a passage that would
lead them to China. They did
not realize that America was
a vast continent In Itself.'
Jacques Cartler, a French explorer,
circumnavigated the
Gulf of St. Lawrence three
times, following the coast line,
searching for a passage to the
Orient. He ascended the 8t.
Lawrence river as far as the
1 -i*- n.f*h?r. hut ha
present one wi ??
little dreamed that nearly 3,000
miles of solid land yet lay to
west of him, and beyond that
the greatest ocean on the globe.
! And for a hundred years after
ia Cartier died his successors contlnued
to search for a passage
y< to the west in connection with
'f the Gulf of St. Lawrence.
