The History of Shavjnu.

The practice of shaving seems to
have originated from its being found
that the beard afforded too good a
hold to an enemy in battle, and this
is the cause assigned for the origin
of shaving among the Greeks in the
time of Alexander. The ancient
German nations shaved the beard
but left the mustache; and it is said
no young man was permitted to
shave or cut his hair till he had
killed a foe in battle. The Moham-
medan nations allow The beard to
grow, but shaved the head, leaving
only small tuft on the crown, to
allow of the Prophet raising them
to another world. They hold the
beard in great esteem, and somely
swear by 1t. The best man can wish
his friend is comprehended in "May
God preserve your blessed beard, p
Or, as an estimate of value, they say,
at is worth more than a man s
beard.n We are told of an Arab
who chose to hazard his life by re-
fusing to allow . surgeon to remove
q few hairs to enable him to get at a
wound on the jaw. 1t is recorded
that when Jonn de Castro was under

USE AND ABUSE OF SCISSORS.


That simple piece of mcchanicism,
pair of scissors. is an invaluable
aid to the editor when honestly and
fairly used. says S. 4. Davis in the
Journalist. When used as burg
lars tool to break into the columns
of contemporary newspaper and
steal valuable ideas and news, with
out giving proper credit, public SEN
timent justly mathematics the edi-
tor who puts this valuable little tool
to such base uses. It is often the
case that the editorial burglar is
proven q fraud and pretender in
more ways than one.
A good many people do not know
that an editors selections from his
contemporaries is quite often the
best test of his editorial ability, and
that the functions of the scissors are
not merely to fill up vacant spaces,
but to reproduce the brightest and
best thoughts, and the most attrac-
tive news from all sources at the ed.
tors command. Readers of a news
paper often wonder why the editors
pen is frequently superseded by the
scissors on the editorial page, and
the reasons are as varied and numer-
GUS as the fitful changes OF human
thought. Sometimes the editors
brain is clogged or worn by physical
causes, and his power of expression
fail him. Often the cares of life
weigh heavily upon him, and he has
no heart to write or labor. If in
such eases the scissors are used as a
substitute for mental labor, the gen.
eral result is a stupid issue, which
justifies the criticism of the reader.
But there are times when the edi
tor opens his exchanges, and finds
feast for eyes, heart and soul. The
thoughts of his contemporaries glow
with life, and send the warmth into
his own soul. He wishes his readers
to enjoy the feast, and he lovingly
takes up the scissors and clips and
clips, and sighs to think that his
space is inadequate to contain all the
treasures so prodigally spread be-
fore him. Your true editor is gen.
erous, and will sacrifice his own am
billions as writer during such festal
occasions. His conduct at such q
time is now generous, and is of far
more profit to his readers to set be-
fore them the original dish of dain-
ties. with the label of the real arthur
affixed, than to appropriate its best
thoughts to himself and reproduce
them as his own.
After all, the true test of news
papers real value is not the amount
of original matter it contains, but
the average quality of all the matter
appearing in its columns whether
original or selected.--Neao York
Monthly Union.
