WHIsKERs OF FOREIGNERS.
In France the "Box" Beard Is Popu-

The most remarkable whisker nov
city," the barber said, according to the
Chicago Chronicle, sis to be found in
France. Frenchmen for the last six
months have been wearing box boards
A box beard is as square as a piece of
carpentry, nine inches long, five inches
wide, two inches deep, every corner
sharp and true and all the surfaces, up
per and under and side, smoothed as If
with plane.
THE box beard is neat and queer. 1t
was introduced by the king of the Bel
gians
"The English have new mustache-
the butterfly The butterfly is not more
than two inches long. 1t is just feath-
cry little thing under the nose, with
ends turning upward and inward. 1t has
been adopted by all the young army Of
ficers. The king has stamped it with the
stamp of his approval.
''You will hardly believe it. but In
Italy the patch is being worn. The ItaI-
ian has his chin shaved smooth except
for tiny circular patch the size of a
shirt stud, and in this patch he grows
a little tuft half inch long. 1t is as
though the Italian had mole there, but
he has no mole really. The patch is
just his coquetry."

Paris, June ll.-President II Roosevelt's
success in opening a way for peace ne
gotiations between Russia and Japan is
the absorbing theme here, and France
has forgotten her own troubles with.

in all the journals, with pictures ofthe

Without exception comment on Pres

Russia has not taken a more prominent
part in etfecting the preliminaries.
