HINTS TO MAN WHO SLAVES.
Suggestions Which Will Prevent In
:. convenience and Trouble.

Shaving Is practiced by nearly every
man, but is properly done by very few
II ydu are often shaved by q barber YOU
should select one who does not rub his
hand hard over your face. as great
been closely shaver. This will irritate
the SKIN very easily and make Jumps ap-
pear. - Very often, after barber has
gone over your face once with razor
and is finishing the shave, he win give
your face an upward stroke with the
palm OF his hand, using pressure be-
tween each stroke of the razor, to see
that no patches of beard remain.
After shave you should be very care
tul to keep your hands away from your
face, the skin is more tender then than
at any other time. If you shave your
self. you should have your razor honed
at least three times year TO keep II
in good order. You. should also have
good strop, with a canvas part. for rough
sharpening as well as smoothing strop.
In buying "a strOp il is well to have. a
barber to select it; then you will be sure
ITO get good one
Before shaving. it is well to wash the
lace with soap in warm water. as there
hit of dust or anything that might be on
your face. One cannot be too careful
about this, for cut of the razor, ever so
small. is apt TO make an ugly sore IL the
skin is not perfectly clean. 4 wash be-
fore shaving viii also soften the beard.
All men should learn to use both hands
sides Of the face with one hand and usu-
ally success in cutting themselves. In
fact, many men cut themselves whenever
they attempt 10 shave. This difficulty
could be overcome if both hands were
used. The face should be well lath-
cred with shaving soap, a kind that does
not dry quickly; then the lather should
be well rubbed in the beard with the tips
of the fingers. which sOftens it TO such
an extent that one does not have to con-
tend with the razor pulling. which not
only hurts severely but irritates the skin.
In cold weather the skin should be
thoroughly sponged in warm water and
afterWard- in cold water. which keeps il
from becoming chapped. Before the face
has been dried little witch hazel should
be rubbed OF Then, after wiping this
off, talcum powder is good. In case of
cut it is we'll to have piece of alum
at hand which. if you dampen and apply
70 the cut. Will close IL up quickly, so
that. If small. IL cannot be seen.
After YOU have finished using the razor
It should be washed, then dried until not
a damp spotsremains. then sharpened on
the strop before putting back into the
case. lf these directions care followed

greeable ordeal TO go through with in
