NEVER WITH RED HAIR
HISTORY RECORDS NO GREAT
GENIUS THUS ADORNED.
Men Of EmInence Have Been, but Not
Those of Genuine and DeathIess
Fame--As to Boards and
RInqIets.

History shows that no great genius
ever had red hair Alone among the
poets of the world was Swinburne,
whose hair was distinctly reddish, and
among the great reformers only John
Bunyans hair was really red. The
simon-pure carrotty head, however, ap-
pears nowhere linked to world fame.
The faxen-haired blonde or the man
whose hair when an adult is a true
yellow also remains marked apart as
being unlikely to possess genius.
Should one such be, his only COM
panion will be Thackeray, whose hair
Is described as yellow. Mr.. Charles
Kassel has reviewed the biographies
of most Of the eminent people of the
worlds histories and tabulated his re-
suits 80 far as the color of the hair ia
concerned.
Dark brown to black is the prevail.
ing hue on the heads Of great men. A
In which the color of the hair is given
by biographers and 80 per cent. are
dark brown or black. There Is not.
strange to say, single mention OF
premature grayness, nor single case
of that ashen brown hair known as
"singed" or mouse color"
The structure of the hair-whether
straight or curly-is given in twenty
six of Mr. Kassels list OF geniuses,
and OF these all but four possessed
curly or wavy hair. 1t Is extremely
notable that of the remaining four,
Napoleon and Andrew Jackson were
the two remarkable for "wiry hail"
and that James Russell Lowell and
Greig were those having lank straight
hair The poets "ringlets" and the
musicians shock of hair are by this
list seen not to be mere accidents,
but In some strange way are co-ordi-
mated to their powers and the general
popular instinct is not at fault.
The color Of boards also arouses
many points of interest. All the an
cient tapestries show Cain and Judas
Iscariot with yellow or red boards,
and Pontius PLATE in ancient art al
ways was given q beard. being a Ro-
man of good family, he probably had
no beard, but those details did not
trouble the old masters.) A reddish
beard, however, does not carry the sig
nificance that goes with red hair, for
a large number Of eminent men with
dark brown hair have had reddish
boards Sometimes the eyelashes have
been rudy, Savonarola. who had al
most black hair, having startliugly
red eyebrows and eyelashes. But, as
a general rule here also silky brown
beard when accompanied by fine cur
ling dark brown hair, Is the most
usual characteristic shown in the
biographies Of those men whose
names have been handed down to
fame-New York World.
