No Bald-Headed Presidents.

When Roosevelt is inausurated on
March 4th, he will be the second Pres
ident with a mustache. Cleveland
was the first.
Whatever the Presidency of this
country has done for the incumbents,
it has not been productive Of boards.
The first four chief executives were
as clean shaven of Benedictine frlars.
j. @. Adams was the first to break the
rule, but he was not a full bearded
President. His facial growth of hair
hardly came up to what are usually
| ermed side whiskers, but they were
a trifle more expansive than the Scotc b
Presbyterian type.
When be retired the beardless Pres
ident came IN again with jackson. but
bis successor, Van Buren,, brought to
the White House almost an exact pat
tern of the whiskers grown by Adams.
William Henry Harrison again set
the beardless face. The seven who

When Lincoln was elected there was
not hair on his face, but before he
finished bis first term be wore sparse
beard, with clean shaven upper lip.
One of the authenticated stories is
that he did this to please child.
Grant was the first President with a
full short beard. His immediate sue
cessor, Hayes, was the first to wear
full, long wniskers. covering his shirt
front. Garfield also wore full beard.
but it was less luxuriant than that OF
Hayes.
Arthur, who was the most correct
dressed of all the Presidents, was the
first in the list to grow the burnside
type of whiskers.
Benjamin Harrison s beard was full
with alsligh tendency to curl at the
end, and was tinged with gray.
After Cleveland the clean shaven
face returned with Mckinley. The
mustache came in for the second time
when Roosevelt succeeded.
Most of the Presidents were bountl-
fully supplied with hair on top of their
heads. The.two Adamses were the
first to show a slight thendency to
badness.
Van Buren was bald ON the forehead.
Garfield was similarly marked.
Polk was the first and only President
who wore his hair in the anti-bellum
Southern style. 1t was long, and
reached back from the front, over his
ears. Buchanan was the first and only
one to wear the top roach.
Cleveland in returning to his second
administration showed tendency to
badness. Mckinley was not notice
ably blessed with heavy growth.
But no bald-headed man, as the term
is understood, has yet been President
of the United States.
