The Philosophy Of Beards

As the Beard makes its appearance simultaneously with one of the most important natural changes in man's con- stitution, it has in all ages been regarded as the ensign of manliness. All the leading races of men, whether of warm or cold climates, who have stamped their character on history - Egyptians, Indians, Jews, Assyrians, Baby- lonians, Persians, Arabs, Greeks, Komans, Celts, Turks, Scandinavians, Sclaves - were furnished with an abundant growth of this natural covering. Their enterprizes were accordingly distinguished by a corresponding vigour and daring. The fact, too, is indisputable, that their hardiest efforts were cotemporaneous with the existence of their beards.
