Why Your Barber Should Cut Your Hair to Fit Your Fac

OF wearing the hair. Some Of our
greatest artists. poets, sculptors
and musicians prefer the casca6ed
locks about their neck and ears
But unless ones genius is known.
or unless his face absolutely re-
quires such artistic sdornment. the
ordinary male looks far more sans
without it.
Genius has its license. and the
world comedies it grsciously; but

temperament attempts to flow
from his head like the cataraets Of
Niagara, the public accords only
ridicule.
And last, but usually not least
in point OF worldly Importance.
comes the man whose head has
been likened to heaven. because
there is no more parting or dyeing
there" On him the barber smiles
benignly. for his labors are limited.
and it is quality OF workmanship.
not quantity. that makes the money
change hands three times at the
end OF the operation. Verify the
hairs OF this mans head are num-
bered, and the barber must nurture
each harriet as though 1t were an
oasis on q desert.

The majority of US wear our
locks either a la pompadosr. or
parted on the side. But Il is now
whispered in the best barber cir
cles that there is TO be return Of
the centre part" vogue. No, our
masculinity is not TO be shocked
by the Observation-Disclosures part-in-
the-middle; the side-locks are to be
brushed loosely back. thereby re-
lieving the primness by little
abandon.
Just a word, in passing, about
the neck that is shaved round at
the back. Here lies the difference
between a country and a city hair
cut. II you want 70 spell pastures
with the back of your head.
Just resort TO this circuitous treat
ment. When "Cy" comes in from
the farm. even though he sports
all the raiment OF stones he dares
all the walters know him by his
globular thatch. A man from the
city once fell asleep in a country
barber-shop. 1t took him a week
back in town. before he began to
look like himself again.

indeed a worthy one and has
reaped its own harvest. both in adj
vancing the ideals of civilization
and preventing a repetition Of
the Samson miracle.
But ali BARRIERS. even though
human. are not mind-readers-
When a man settles himself in the
cosmetic upholstery Of a strange
BARRIERS chair and emits the words

stincts more or less comatose he
expects the tonsorial expert to
know all the rest. Immediately
the barber must throw himself into
a clairvOyant trance. peer occultly
into the mans head, and begin to
ply his scissors.
II al the end Of the operation,
when the victim is reused from
dreams Of Elysian fields. his head
happens TO look strange TO him,
then very frequently barbarous
thoughts are brewed; and these
often find Utterance either through
the stony stare Of the non-tip exit,
or in combination with language
smacking OF barbarity. The poor
barber couldn't bother the man too
much by questioning him about
the particular mode he desired In

about the ears and at the back OF
the neck will generally increase his
spaTeness. When this is carried to
extremes, the victim often pre-
sents the appearance Of q picked
chicken, walking about with moth
ing left but its comb.
The individual with the short
face may resort TO moderately high
shaving about the ears. This, in

distance between chin and hair and
also decrease the breadth of his
face. If he attempts to wear his
side-locks down on the semi-side-

As long and as high as possible at
the top Of the head, on the pompa-
dour style.

presses length. and whose brow is
proportionately high. viii do we'll

sleekly as possible over the top of

from the uncut thatch Just what
style of architecture it had origi-
nally followed.
The result is that many men are
walking about to-day with the
domes and gables Of their heads
wholly incompatible with the rest
Of their appearance: and there IS
nothing so humor-inspiring as this
outward reflection of barbarism.
Two courses are always open in
the matter Of obtaining a becoming

barber-shops, he may easily learn

the average individuals head, hair
grows at the rate OF from one
eighth to one-qusrter Of an inch a
week.
Moreover. the face OF every man
bears a very important relation to
the trimming Of his locks. His hair
should always be cut to match his
features. Consequently a few peril
nent suggestions along this line
will sometimes work wonders in
your subsequent appearance in the
outer world.
For instance. the fat man. with
the large girth Of neck and head.
should be clipped with only moder-
ate trimness at the back OF the
head and about the ears-since, if
the hair is cut too high here. his
freshness will only be accentuated.
As much hair as possible should
be left at the top OF his head. so
that the effect of added height and
less breadth will be impaired.
Often We see men of this type who
foolishly let their BARRIERS clip away
most of the natural covering OF
their conVolutions of flesh.

These anchOring cables will give the
