tache might have been made of shavings
of oiled ebony. Senator Mills is the only
man in the chamber who wears goatee.
He has white mustache and the little
whisk of hair fastened to bis lower lip is
of silver. Sen atOr Perkins of Kansas, who
succeeds Plumb looks as though be might
have borrowed his head from an Indian
chief. His face is somber in feature. 1t
is as smooth shaven as was that of Daniel
Webster, and its complexion is copper. He
has heavy brows and fierce eyes, and he
looks wise enough to be great. Coke of
Texas is another wise-looklng man. He
has a long beard of yellowiSh white, and
he puts a napkin over this whenever ne
eats. Henry Cabot Lodge has curly hair
and curly wniskers. His beard covers his
square face, and sitting in the king
TOW" he forms a striking figure among the
young men of the Senate.
Senator Harris of Tennessee looks like a
Chinese mandarin, and this effect is pro-
duced by his mustache. This stands out
IN two long thin white lines on each side of
his nose and gives him a strikingly Celes-
tial appearance. He has high cheek bones
sharp blGe eyes. which look out through
narrow lids, and parchment bald head
IL ne had a long gown and pigtail he
could pose for Ii Hung Chang. and dressed
in Chinese costume he could travel through
out PekiDg without being discovered.
Speaking of Senators who look like other
persons such effects are usually produced
by the boards. Carey of Wyoming looks
very much like Garfield, and he has blonde
whlskers of the same shape and style as
those of the martyTed President. Senator
Culiom has a beard like that of Abraham
Lincoln, and the little mustaehe and pecu-
liar eyes of Senator Davis of Minnesota
used to cause him 10 be taken for Ben But
ler. Senator Daniel of Virginia is smooth
shaven. ana his dark, handsome face looks
like that of the pictures Of John Wilkes
Booth.
1t is the same in the House. General
Charles GrosvenOr of Ohio has whiskers
like President Hayes, and the little
round head and curly hair of John K. Fell
lows make you think of p. L. Barnum.
Johnson of Ohio looks not unlike Stephen
A. Douglas. and Bryan of Kansas has the
heavy jaw and the smooth unshaven face
of Sam Randall. General Cogswell of
Massachusetts is taken every day for
President Cleveland, and Bailey of Texas
looks like Daniel Webster.
Only the fewest men in public life are
entirely smooth shaven.
Bailey scrapes his dark countenance
every morning. Senator George Frisbie
HOar lathers his cheeks before he takes his
breakfast, and HOke Smith and Wilson S.
Bissell are in the hands of the BARRIERS
daily. Senator HoaT's skin is very lin
and very rosy. He used to look mere like
Horace Greeley than he does now. 1t was
when he wore whskers on his neck. Sec
retary Carlisle has no beard. His face is
dark. sallow and angular. William Nc
kinley, Governor of Ohio. has never had
wnskers. He resents being compared to
Napoleon Bonaparte, but he has .he same
smooth-shaven, classic face. Ex-Vice-
President Morton serapes his face every
morning. he wears an iron-gray wig.
which is so carefully made that 1t is sup
posed to grow from the scalp. Colqutt OBJ
lects to whlskers, and Gorman's handsome
face is striking enough without them.
There are 100 mustaches in the House of
Representatives and about one-third of the
Senators have hair on their upper lips.
Jerry Simpsons mustache is of iron gray
with preponderanee of black in it. He
keeps it short and IL fairly bristles. NJ.
ID. Harter has gray mustache. The mus
tache of Boutelle of Maine is white and
Tom Reeds little mustache is of the same
color with here and there a golden strand.
Tim Campbell of New Ork has muStache
much like Jerry simpsons. He always
wears a white necktie and he looks like
preacher. One of the handsomest mus
taches in the Senate is that of Gray of
Delaware, and a beautiful silvery one be-
longs to the rosy face of Butler of South
Carolina. The handsnmest whiskers in
the Senate are those of Mitchell of Ore
gon. They are of glossy chestnut brown,
and as you look at them and the handsome
face of the Oregon Senator you do not
wonder that he is the father of the beauti-
full Matte Mitchell whose handsome face
was the sensation OF the European capt.
tails. and who is now married to one of the
Old Worlds no blest dukes.
The average mustache hides the lip of
it's owner and ven do not thus get fair
view of one of the most characteristic fea-
