Mr.. Hysler is a tall, well-built man.
who looks much younger than his sew
enty-eight years. His face Is adorned
with silvery "mutton-chop' whiskers.
Young for His Age.
Mr.. Hysler tells me that the mustache
is coming back. II is seen now in Fifth
Avenue and Riverside Drive. So II you
wish to be in the swim you must cult
waite a lip sdornment. But your mus
tache must not be the kind that
"snoops" into things. Oh, dear. no.
There are several kinds of mustache,
and all are not going TO be popular, ="
said Mr.. Hysler. This years is not
going TO be any big trailing. shopping
AFFAIR. but the little. short, stubby kind
that appears TO be new. This is both
for hygienic reasons and to show the
contour of the mouth. On these &C.
counts it should be popular. 1t will
hide neither the genial smile nor the de-
termined expression. When cut away
from the corners of the mouth, as this
new one will be. the character of the
face will be preserved. I call IL the
'hygienic mustache.'
''Of course. there is the kind with the
upturned ends. like the Kaiser's, a great
favorite with large, tall men. and II will
be in good form also, but the others will
be absolutely taboo
Full boards are not going to he in
style this spring. in spite of the efforts
of some abroad to revive it, Those who
wear a beard at all and desire to be up
to date will have 1t cut to a point in
the center-a Van Dyke. This sort of
a beard has tendency to make a man
look professional and il therefore fire.
Quently adopted by doctors and lawyers
But to get back to the little mus
taChe. This style is suitable to all sizes
of men. II will become the tall thin man
because il will not accentuate either his
slimness or his height. as does the long
dropping mustache. and IL will not make
the short man appear shorter but "a tn
er give him a distinguished air.
Smooth Face Going Out.
The smooth face is going out A
clean shaver face went well with the
padded shoulders which the tailors have
been making the style for some time.
but as the shoulders OF the coats are
becoming gradually narrower, the mus
tache makes Its appearance. So, you
see. the tailor has something, to do with
the styles in the tonsorial art as we'll
as in his own. The mustache goes with
the normal shoulder: II looks better than
the cle2n-shaven face because the pro-
portions harmonic.
las for the head hair, II must be
parted on the sides and trimmed very
close The center part Is no longer in
vogue, even for the younger men. The
