ROYAL MUSTACHES.
The Kaiser Has Given His New Twist
and Upward Curl.
From the Philadelphia Timex

From the Philadelphia Timex
All Berlin is discussing me emperor's
new style of wearing his mustache. which
seems to absorb a good deal more public
attention than the complicated and criti-
cal political situation. Judging from the
number of times that the young monarch
has altered the cut Of the hirsute adorn-
ments on his face since he assembled the
throne, one would be tempted to believe
that he spends much time in front of his
loolSing-glass, and that he regards his ap-
pearance and his expression as matters of
quite as much weight and Importance as
the most grave affairs of state His pres
ent fashion of wearing his mustache is TO
have it long and stiff with points. up
turned toward the corners of his eyes
giving him a very fierce and martial ex-
preston, especially when his head is cap
ped by the heavy cavalry helmet of the
cuirassiers of the guard, which he is so
fond Of wearing. Having been told that
the popular hair-dresser, Haby, has q
special talent for treating this peculiar
style of the mustache he sent for him and
commanded him to dress it in the desired
way. Since then Haby has been at the
castle daily sometimes twice a day. in
order to cultivate and train the imperial
mustache in the way it should go. The
barber, who gets 5 marks for each visit
is delighted with the success of his treat
ment, and counts confidently on securing
the much-coveted apo q ment of hoffri-
seur, or hair-dresser, to the court. This
will practically exhaust Emperor Will
liam's means of experimenting with his
mustache. He has worn it in every con-
ceivable fashion, curled upward and curl
ed downward; long and close cropped

can see the only thing that remains for
him to do is TO trim it down fine enough to
resemble the long and dropping mustache
of the Chinese mandarins
At the present moment the finest pair of
royal mustaches in Europe in point of size
and of volume are those of King Humbert
OF italy. which are snow white as is his
hair. Although they are quite respectable
in size, yet thsy are immeasurably inferior

but beautifully fair, as was also his hair
The morning OF the battle of Novara he
came to the conclusion that he did not
look fierce enough. From that day forth
his hair and mustache became darker, the
artifice being revealed by the brown
spots on his skin, the result of unskillsd
application of the dye. which used to be
prepared by his morganatic wife, the
vulgar and incredibly coarse Rosina. Hat
ing as he did both BARRIERS and Wallets, he
often presented a comical sight when he
had been away from Rosina a week or
two King Humbert's brother, ex-King
Amadeus of Spain, likewise sported an
enormously long mustache, which was as
