popular mode for the college boy OF to-
day is the Teddy Bear'-the hair
brushed straight back from the fore
head and mingling with the hair Of the
back OF the head.
Badness is becoming more prevalent.
Men and women should take better care
OF their hair. I'll give you some rules
for the preservation OF the hair.
AT the very first Indication of any
falling hair or irritation of the scalp. give
IL Immediate attention. Many could pre-
vent badness by taking care of the
scalp in time.
Cleanliness IL Important.
Cleanliness is the second in impor-
lance. Keep the head clean and healthy
and the hair follicIes will thrive. II
choked by dandruf or dust dead hairs
will result.
Thirdly. do not wash the hair too
often. While cleanliness is essential yet
IL can be exaggerated. IL the hair is in
clined to be oily it needs washing oftener
than when IL is dry. l think to wash
the hair every three weeks II IL is inclined
to be oily, and every month II II is dry.
Is often enough. A very important thing
TO remember is to be sure that after the
washing, process Is completed, the hair
is well rinsed, so that not a particle of
.
is the greatest menace to its life and
color.
Fourth. use a good tonic: there are
several. Massage the tonic into the scalp
by a rotary movement with the tips of
the fingers This Ioosens the scalp and
allows the natural oil of the head TO
escape and nourish the hair, and gives
the follicles freedom TO grow. A half
hours massage is none too much.
lfrH 81 hatw ,tvk,s
morning thoroughly. Have a brush that
has good. strong bristles that will pene
trate to the scalp and cause the blood TO
circulate. Brush II from fifty to a hun
dred times. Immediately after this treat
ment is the best time to apply the tonic.
Derby sause. Badness.
"A good deal of badness is caused by
the darby hat. The air does not get
chance to circulate through the hair.
Out West, where the derby is not worn
so much, mems hair is thicker and
stronger. But l have never seen any
thing that will cause hair TO grow on a
bald spot"
Mr.. Hysler was questioned on the sub
ject of tipping"
Tipping" he said lis very dificult to
abolish. I would myself, for many rea-
sons prefer its absence, but there are So
twenty BARRIERS & n day each: besides. 1
have manicures and other help. There
are between 400 and 800 customers a day,
and they pay me 20 cents for a shave.
IS cents for haircut. IS cents for a sham
poo. and 50 cents for manicuring.
One of the most generous Of my Gus
toners was w. c. Whitney, who, besides
giving a present to his barber every
month, presented him every summer with
800 for a vacation. II. II. Rogers every
Christmas made a liberal gift 10 each of
the BARRIERS, manicures, and brush boys
Mr.. Hysler has amassed a small for
tune in his business He owns a beauti-
full summer home at Hicksville, L. L.
near Oyster Bay, with two automobiles.
He is known as The Millionaire Barber"
l asked him to what he attributed his
success in his field of work. and he an
swered: |
To making strict rules for my men
and seeing that they are put into effect
One of my strictest rules is that none of
them shall talk to a customer. except to
answer a question, unless the customer
opens conversation, and then he must
not continue to talk unless II is evident
that the man in the chair desires 1t.
Another rule is that tipping must not
be counted on: that the same courtesy
not tip as to the man who does. As
watch my business closely. except in the
summer. when ! am away. this rule Is
kept rigidly. The man who violates It is
discharged"
