THE DEFENCE OF THE BEARD.-There
are more solid inducements for wearing the
beard than the mere personal appearance,
and the cultivation of such an aid to the
everyday diplomacy Of life. Nature, com
bning, as she never fails to do, the useful
with the ornamental, provides us with a far
better respirator than science could ever
make. The hair and mousache not only
absorbs the moisture and masma of fogs,
but it strains the air from dust. 1t acts also
in the most scientific manner, by taking heat
from the warm breath as it leaves the ches',
and supplying it to the co d air taken in.
1t is not only resprator, but with the beard
entire we provided with comforted as well
The remarkable thing is, too, that the beard,
like the hair of the head, protects against
the heat of the sun; it act as a thatch does tC
an ice house; but more than this, it becomes
moist with the perspiraton, and then b.
evaporation coos the skin. A ten years
experience may nave made us ourselves
little enthusiastic; but if a total immunity
fran tootha he, relaxed usual coughs, colds
and all the host of rheums be any inducemen
then we can corIialy recommend the beard
in all its glory.
