But an invigorator who has made minute measurements at various times of life Ands that his own hair grew only a dittle more than half an inch a month du his twentieth year, and rather less x idly in his sixtieth. api He made some other interesting di* goveries. In contradiction to the, common be- lief, he says� that cutting retards In- stead of promothig the growthof -.he (hair, and that the normal rate oZ growth is not restored until a con- siderable interval has clapsed after Cutting. Shaving is often followed by I regular growth owing tothe fact that the hairs are arranged in groups. of -from two to four, and a . curious law - of growth. connects the members of each grotip. Ifte hair grows faster tha I n its fellows for. a time, then the leadership falls to a second. When all have had their turns the first hair agadu grows the most rapidly, and - then, the rotation is repeated. Nor. -do the hairs of- a group ever fall out simultaxwously. One always goes first, and so, the formation of bald s -Dots Is delayed. Widowers, like tu)nbled-down touses should be repaired.
