I It is a lock that grows out straight at the i fiarting of tho liair and will not grow I ong enough to bo combed back with the other hair. Then there is the cowlick." "Is that another independent lock?" "Yes; it grows straight up from' the forehead like a tuft of grass, as if a cow had licked it up and it is so stubborn that ladies niillcted with them often part their hair on the side to avoid them, i They are a great trouble and no one knows why they have them."
