WM. H. HARRIS, Secretary. Beardes. The custom of shaving the beard was enforced by Alexander of Macedon, not for the sake of fashion, but for a practical end.

He knew that the soldiers of India when they encountered their foes, had the habit of grasping them by the beard, and so he ordered his soldiers to shave. Afterward shaving was practiced in the Macedonian army, and then among Greek citizens. The Romans imitated the Greeks in the practice, as they did in many other things, and spread it to the different European nations yet barbaric. In the Middle Ages, at the time of the Renaissance, shaving was introduced, and the habit was retained, though classicism gave place to romanticism, and that, in its turn, was replaced by realism. The beard was a source of trouble to Peter the Great, who, simultaneously with the introduction of his great reforms in Russia, tried to induce his people to imitate the shaving nations.

This innovation was resisted by his subjects with the utmost persistence, and they preferred to pay a heavy fine rather than suffer disfigurement as they believed, of the image of God. To the Russians of olden time4 the beard was a symbol of llberty. In sevrnl countries of western Europe and in the United States the beard was restored to honor only about twenty years ago, but even yet the majority of men respect the custom introduced by Alexander the Great. The Breslauer Tagblatt prints a native petition which a young servant girl of that city addressed through the post to the Imperial Cabinet at Berlin. "Your she writes, "do send a couple of lines to my Robert.

Tell him that he must marry me, and that if he does marry me he shall have work at the railway station as long as he lives, but if does not marry me he shall not be allowed any work. But do, I pray, send your most high commands to him at the latest by Saturday, so that he may come again to visit me next Sunday." She goes on to say that if the 'Kaiser does not write to "her Robert," no power on earth can move him, and that she will be obliged to throw herself into the Oder.
