Thirty yea1s ago . few persons Of
foreign birth appeared on the streets
with hair On their upper lip, and were
subjects Of curiosity and fidicule. In
1850 some Of the young swelb Of the
metropolis began TO wear mustaches,
hut for some time no clerk would ven
ture to initiate them. In one case q
merchant on Vine street, who had Just
engaged . clerk Tor twelve months, OF
during good behavior, discharged him
for wearing full beard, claiming that
the adoption Of the fashion laid the
clerk open to discharge under the good
behavior clause Of the contract. About
the same time number Of the leading
merchants gave notice that they would
employ nobody who wore hair on the
upper lip. As late as 1851 the senior
proprietor Of this paper made his CASH
Ter shave Off an incipient mustache,
and soon after brought his own son un-
der the the razor. In the church of DR..
Bethune, on Brooklyn Heights, an el-
der who was suffering from q lame
wrist allowed his beard to grow rather
than submit to barber. The habit,
BEGINNING in necessity, continued on ac-
count Of the increase Of comfort which
II. afforded, and the elder Haunted his
beard before his congregation constantly.
The result was laugha6le. The brethren
called upon the pastor to insist on doing
away with such y scandal as . full
bearded elder. He led them to his IL
brary and showed them how some Of
the early fathers had pleaded against
cutting of the beard. He turned to
Lactantius. Theodore. st. Augustine
and st. Cyprian, who had stoutly con-
tended for the growth of . full beard.
He quoted from Clement, Of Alexan-
dria the assertion that ''nature adorned
men, like lion. with . beard, as u
mark Of strength and power" When
one of the visitors asked him how he
would ike it if the clergy assumed the
Mustache, DIR. Bethune referred him to
n decision ut the Fourth Council Of Car
thage "a. II. 81, can. ~, in which it
was positively enacted that q cleIgy-
man shall not shave his beard, and to
statement made by Luther In discuss
ing the subject, THAT Ill the Protestant
martyrs were burned In their full
beartls." This did not settle the matter
for subsequently the ladies Of the con-
:;rcgation put in their protest. But In
few months vcnturesOIne lawyer let
his beard grow after the manner Of the
elders, aud in little while smO0th-sha-
ven faces were no longer the rule, but

Dora was off again before he could finish

Dora was off again before he could finish
the sentence.
She ran back through the orchard, giving
thanks with all her heart that she had not
suffered herself to be persuaded of Joes
faithlessness OH one hearing. Her feeling of
grateful awe, as if she had escaped from sud-
den death, kept her from mourning much
over the passing away of the seventh ami
versary OF Joe's departure, with no sign of
his return.
His letters had wholly ceased and there
was nothing left for Dora but to possess her
soul with patience When another New
Year dawned upon her she put on the old
red dress more from habit than any gleam
of hope in her heart and did not care to
look in the glass. In the twilight she
walked slowly down the orchard path and
leaned the gate that opened into the
road.
Suddenly man sprang out from behind
the wall. Theodore, my gift of Godp" he
said; and Dora, though she recognized no
mark of the lover who had left her eight
years before, felt that no other knew that
pass word, and suffered herself to rest silent
ly in his arms in the ineffable content that
comes after long waiting
When Joe and Dora went into the house
and she looked at him by candlelight, her
heart almost misgave her; his luxuriant
beard and the manly assurance of his
manners were not at all like her Joe OF be-
loved memory, and terrible barrier seemed
to rise up between them, while Prudence
remained i'm the room with her company
manners. which sat more awkwardly upon
her than her Sunday gown.
When Dora tptoed softly by her sisters
door at a very late hour that night Pru-
dence was lying awake for her. Don't tell
me- she said, that you've been waiting for
that Joe Raymond all this iimew
II won't tell you, if you don't want to
hear it, said Dora.
"Do you know whether he came home any
better off than when he went away?'
Il really haven't thought to ask him."
said Dora, caielesslr. Prudence groaEed
and turned her face To the wall.
Joe waited only till the next day to tell
Mrs. Hall the story OF his success, which
looked very moderate in his travelled eyes.
but seemed a noble fortune TO her hOmely
ideas.
Il never thought before" said DOra's
father at the wedding, THAT woman could
keep secret; and guess il amt much more
common than snow in dog days"
How long would you have waited for
me% whispered Joe in Dora's ear.
Forever" said Dora. solemnly.
And Mrs. Prudence Hall, as she overheard
the word thanked her stars that Dora $ fool
ish notions had not wrecked her at last a
pOyerty-stricken marriage.
