New York World, The beard, according to Mr. Darwin, was originally ornamental, and the bearded man be- ing popular in primitive society selected tho fairest women; his offspring resembled him, and soon. Certain it is that wearing the beard was in the oldest times all the fasbion. In ancient Andia, Persia, and Assyria full bears were worn, and were esteemed as symbolical of diguity and wisdom.. According to the old Egyptian pictures shaving was a common practice in the land of the pyramids, or, at least, the frequent absence of the beard among Kings and priests is noticed as asort of indication of rank, Herodotus si thar fog clean shaving the priests “gave acer- tain sacred reason which wo do not think it law- ful to disclose,” probably because he did not. koow it, At any rato, the Exyptians may be said to furnish. the earliest - instauces of “the priest all shaven ‘and shorn.” Their Libyan, neighbors, on the other hand, were heavily bearded, and their “maritime enemies— Probably the early Greeks—wore rather thin ‘Yellow beards. Doran contends that these same Greeks were shaven and called all ‘alien and bearded races“ barbarous,” connecting tho word with barba, but Homer and the Egyptiun monuments are against bin. “The Assyrian -Kings wore enormous beards, oiled and curled 1g tiers or stories, and some of them treasured ‘these appendages in jeweled cases. The chosen people represented Adam with as: luxuriant a ardas Homer gives Jupiter, father of goas and ‘men, in the Iliad, and. always clung to thelr beards with particular atfection and jeal- ousy. ‘To war the corners of the beard was an Offense agaiust: thelr, law. ‘The fugitive who -reverentially raised“-his hand to. the beard might hope for succor: to swear by it—as young Ulric in Schiller’s fine ballad swears by that of his father, Eberhurd tho Rtusbbeard—was to take a most sucred oath; for .a stranger to Touch it was an insult, and it was the sign of su- Preme affection for :children and -kinsfolk ‘to Couch it gently or kiss ft. ‘Thus it was that Joab slew the unsuspecting Amasa.-To cut an en- ‘Voy’s beard wus a crowning affront—it was like insulting the ambassador's tlag.- According to the legendary history of Rome, the massacre of the Senate was precipitated by the act of the Gaul, who, in his mingled awe and admiration, Inid hands on a Senator's beard to ‘see whether ‘or not the Senator was a majestic statue, and all. readers wilt'recall the retort to the Musguiman "| despot.of the Christian envoy. “It my iuastor bad known you set so much account by & beard he would have sent you a goat. = ., Alexander the Great is-credited with having introduced shaving during his Asiatic wars, hav- ing noticed that the beard afforded a convenient handle for the enemy; this was the original “fighting cut,” and the rst instance of « mill- tary regulation concerning hirsute appendages. The Greeksnot only employed: razors, but “eharp pitch-plasters.”.They sent the fashion over to Kome about 300 B. C., where Scipio Afri- canus the younger was the first geotieman of note to’ shave daily.In Cxsar's time a slight oateo or mustache, assiduously cultivated, was the thing for s young man of fashion, Whereas tearing the hair had been a signof mourning, in Rome letting the beard grow was the orthodox method of celebrating a public calamity. The Roman Emperors shaved .until the time of Ha- drian, who {et bis beard grow to hide an, ugly Sear. Tho difficulties which Nero experieneed in making his tofiet are familiar to most readers— indeed, an interesting article might be written on the subject of barbers and despots... 2)? < From Rome the -babit: of- shaving was carried ail over Central.and Northern Europe, where Wearing the. beard had: been the universal cus- tom. “According to Tacitus the ancient Germans cultivated the beard till they had killed an ene- my: in- battle—" taken: a scalp.” The Bayeux tapestry shows the’ Normans close-ahaven as to cheeks, lips, and chin, Harold and most of tha English wear the mustache, aud the only beard- ed folks are Edward the Confessor and fivo men en the Norman aide, Long, shoggy hair and, enormous tangled tnustaches had been in vogue among the uncient Britons. On the introducton of Christianity the clergy among the Anzio-Sax- ons hed to shave, and after the Conquest one of the grievances axainst William was his sup- pression of the Buglist mustache. Shaving, by ine clergy especially, was 8 sort ot, protest againat Judaism and’ Islam, though the early Christian fathers had followed the.Jewish custom and prescribed the retention of the beard. Clem- ent of Alexandria, Cyprian, Jerome, and Chrys- astom were among the controversialists “on this great question over which the Greck and Roman Churches fought, and which later so-ex- ercised the Belgian reformers that they would fain bave ojected ull save the shaven from their mks, The Popes frequently promulgated de- ‘erees and set fashions, but not all of the same sort. The gallant Julius IL, victor’ aver the Venetians and Fronch, allowed ‘his ‘beard 6° grow when he ascended the Papal throne in 1503,” and seta fashion that wus followed. over tho Christian world, Francis L, of ince, copying him; us he bad received an ugly wound In the face trom a brand of blazing wood in beg eth Nigbe frolic. Up to that time tho beard had led a checkered existence in France. After the bat- tle of Tolbiac, where Clovis thrashed the Jater ‘Alaric so soundly, the. conqueror sént word to the vanquished tocome and touch -his beard— make ag allianco—but Alario. Instead, caught tho Franklsh.envoys by tho beard and sent them: back, swearing furiously by the violated append- ages to-bave their revongey wich was prompt and bloody.’ Thereafter France saw beards of ull. sorts~iong, short, round, « square, braided, woven with gold thread, Spangled with pearis— until the era of. shaven chias was closed by Francis I. and the fattuence of the Renatssance. Louis VII's shaving, it. may be remembered, Was @ serious act for’ himself and his country. With his fair chestnut beard he was barely tol- erated by his. wife, Eleanor of Cayenne, ana whon he shaved it off 2 broll began which ended in their divorce, her marriage to Henry . LI. of England, to whom she brought Poitou and Guyenne as adowry ana a War which ravaged France for three centuries and cost the Hives of 3,000,000 of inen. “Under Heary IIL of France shaven chins were jn vogue, with the mustache gud a long mouche on the lower lip, which undor Napoleon ILf, was again to be fashfonabie under the name of imperial. Under Henry If. square beards ruled, and Louis X{I. favored’a small jm- peria), with curled mustuches. Tha moueho was in fasbion under Louis XIV., but little or no beard, and the razor was used _relentiesly under the next two Kings, the Republic, the Dic rectory, and the Restorution.. Charles V. fol- lowed Pope Julius" lead into the ranks of beard- wearers, while Philip V., belnz unable to raise beard bimscir, discouraged - the wearing of. beards by bis courtiers, who: lamented that with their beards bad gone their souls. “All the gold in the world,” said the brave Portuguese Ad- miral, Jean de Custro, to the: Mayor of Goa, “cannot equal this natural ornament of my vulor,” and fe pointed to one of his tuxurfant. whiskers, andthe Mayor was 60 deeply im- Pressed that he lent (him a thousand pistoies on. the pledge thereof. England generally followed the fashion set by France. Though Gne of the poets bas celebrated the beard of Heary VII. and declared that - diets: : A well-thatchéd face ts comely grace, - Anda shelter fromthe cold. that monarch published an edict against beards, and Elizabeth ordained that every beard of above a fortnight’s growth should pay an annual tux of three-and-four-fence, a feature bor- rowed by Peter the Great, who taxed the beards of: his peasant subjects ‘n- copeck a year, and charred wealthier oues 100 roubies, say $70. On the Continent, magistrates, grave burghers, and other worthy folic had Jong made a practice of wearing “beards of formul cut" opposed to the Fegaunt court fashion, whatever that happened tobe, and when the civil war broke. out. under Charles L'the hair became the distinguishing mark of the factions. ‘Tbe beard of the period was worn sharply peaked in a triangular form, and pasteboara cases were employed to cover them during sleep; a manof fashion gave more time to bis beard. than one does now- adays to his hair, and even bad bis reader to beguile the tedium of arranging it. Taylor, the Water Poet, gives it roundly to the “great van- ity" of beards in that tune, when a barber ex- uitantly cried, -as he finished off the court preacher, * There! I'tl be hanged if any one of Tuste listens to a word of the sermon today!” The beard dwindled away to whiskers under the Charleses, possibly becauso’ tho wig monopo- lized the attention, aud partly because of Cou- tinental fashions, and went out, with James IL, wheran era of close-shaving set in—in which the popuiur epithet of contempt, by the way, wag “beardless boy.” In. private and public lite, in che suing. and navy, everybody shaved daily, and the rule of the razor lasted till half a century ago. ~ * 2 * Napoleon shaved himself,” said Talleyrand. + One born to be a King hos some one to shave him, but they who acquire Kingdoms shave themselves.” | But whon the Classicists felt be- fore tho Homunticists about . 183) the beard’ came in, a3 it had under Francis i, ond the Renaissance. .. Nowhere could, daring spirits assert so. conspicuously theirgdisregard of the conventional send their desiré ot innovation’ as.in the matter of hair and beard, and the gathering on the. first night of “Hernant” was a very nightmare of hirsute- ness. - Artists, conspirators, Saint-Simonians, and phalansterians introduced tho cultus of the beard, while graver folk declared for. mutton- chop whiswers. The beard came more slowly into fashion in Engiand. Before James Ward, tho Itoyal Academician, had: the-courage to let nis beard grow he felt ‘compelled to publish a solemn justification giving eightcen different reasons why a. mun was bound to do so unless ‘he was “indifferent as to offending the Creator and good taste.” When the fashion of beards came in it took Just $8,000 'n year out. of the. pocket of the Inte D: J.

Dr. Spitzka testitied at the Guiteau trial that one indication of the prisoner's ill-balanced mind was tho irregular shape of his head, one side being larger than the other. A.

The smallest ‘man’s hat: sold is what is called a-5% hat, bavi a circumference of eighteen and three-fourths inches, and the larg- est hat that Mr. Knox was ever called upon to make was a hat numbered 8%, with a cireumfer- guee of. nearly twonty-six inches, made’ for a Pennsylvania Quaker. Out of ‘forty or fifty of Mr, Knox's cards show -the -head diagrams of customers whose heads would not fit Into reudy~ made bats, not one could be found which, if di- vided; by. a central Iine, would. show.each side to.match the other.’ Some of. the heads were nearly .- others were = 80 long and: narrow as to resemble the outline: of a shoe... sole more., than what would be supposed to be the outline.of a human head. Some heads present'on the one side a: bulge while. on’ the other aide there is a depression; others run to a point in front, and look like the section of a-spinning-top, Editors particularly seem to have heads which by no stretch of flattery could be called regular. Mr. Greeley's head diagram -looks as if it might have been composed of parts of several different heads. Gen. Butler's head is almost square, and twenty-four Inches’. in . circumference... “Bir. Robert Bonner’s head {s far from regular. - fr. Evarts bas a long head.one side being larger than the other. Henry Clay and-Webster both bad heads so. peculiarly shaped that they were obliged to have hats made to order. In the course of forty years’ business, making hats for all classes of men, str. Knox had never noticed that either the 8izé or the: shape of @ man’s head had anything to do with his mentat capacity or -ability tc’ pay his. bills. He had heard that the incqualfty in the sides of a man's bead.was due to the habit which persons have of sleeping always on onesfde, but the pecuilar kaobs or bumps observablein many heads could not be accounted for upon that theory, although sleeping upon one side might have aa effect up- on the relative size of the sides of the héad, DECEMBER 25, 1881—SIXTEEN .
