There are two superstitions yet found among barbers. Yean ago barbers were among tho moat superstitious ci work¬ men. If he cut a man on Monday, the barber wo* sure lie would cut seven men 'before Sunday. If the first customer in the morning complimented bun. be would get little but grumbles and curses for the rest of the day. If he didn’t receive at least one tip above the regular fees on Monday, the week would be a bod one. These beliefs are rapidly disappearing. There are two cnr kms facts about razors, that still give rise to general su- and probably always wilL It that after long continuous me it is difficult to give a razor an edge. The knowing hand will quietly lay It away with the remark that the razor is "tired” and “needs rest.” After letting it “sleep” a few days— that Is, sHtnfy not using it, the razor is found to ul i good condition. Few barbers nttemp j explain this. But the explanan n fa riple. The edge of a razor coi ts < ( a series of microscopic teeth. 1- ig continuous use wears these down. ii< -pite Atroppings, and it needs the oxidation which time only can pro¬ vide to bring out again the microscopic roughness. Another peculiarity of tho razor is that, though in splendid condi¬ tion when last used, it sometimes posi¬ tively refuses to take an edge when put cn the hone in the morning. A few boars later It will take an edge beauti¬ fully. This is due to the same principle of oxidation. Barl*-r= will sometimes say a razor Is '.. .'* by which they main that it re: > take an edge, al¬ though not made • lired" by long pre¬ vious work. Some razors, because of pe¬ culiarities in the grades of steel, are more apt to be "balky" than others. “Do barbers allow superstitions to af¬ fect tbetf method of shaking?” was aaked'of a Broadway veteran. •’There fa only one method of shav¬ ing,” said the barber; "there never lias been but on< - - i there never will be more. The 1- ; .rubs the lather into your stub unti Sings to the face itself. To accomplish . he has first sponged lr face with water to remove skin secretions. When first put on the lather sticks on top of the stub and doe* not touch the skin much. Rubbing brings It into the skin. It also softens the beard, and a barber always lathers you before he strops his razor, so as to give the lather time to get in its work. Then when he shaves you it is always with the grain. That fa, every distinct portion of your face fa shaved in the direction the hair grows. If this rule were not fol¬ lowed the toughest skin would, an hour later, show abrasions, and erup¬ tions would come. After the face is once shaved, the barber 6fcaves it again for closeness. This second shave may safely be against the grain. Most faces can stand the second shave against the grain, but there are some men with stiff beards, too, whose skin is so tender that they can only bo shaved one way. The barber can never know positively from the appearance or touch of a skin whether or not it can stand the second shave. That ia something the owner of tho face must discover by experience. So when ho shaves a stranger, unless he fa sure be has a tough skin, the barber asks, sifter the first shave, if the man de¬ sires it close. The razor is placed nearly flat with tho face. The free hand draws every bit of skin tight before he shaves over it Some barbers pick up the skin between their fingers, others merely press it tight Practically, though, every bar¬ ber the world over shaves the same way. “He has no room, therefore, to bring In superstitions, so bound fa he by the recognized principles of the art, except m such little details as beginning the shave on the right or left side of the face, shaving the upper lip before or after the chin, and other things of that kind. Every barber has 6omo little maxims of his own about these unimportant items, and some believe that bad luck attends the man who doesn’t share every face in precisely the samo manner regarding these little details." “How do men learn to bo barbers?” was asked of a barber who shaves law¬ yers and bankers in Wall street. “You’ve got to pay for it, "said the barber. "Hebe and there you will find a barber who keeps a sort of school, and charges a round price to give lessons. They allow the learners to practice when they gain a little deftness on the chins of unsuspecting chance customers. Gener¬ ally, though, a boy who wants to be a bar¬ ber fa bound out to a regular barber for two years. jThe barber exacts $25 or moro a year and the boy's entire service. In re¬ turn he boards and lodges him,and makes him a good barber. My own experience fa a fair sample case. I was only 14 when I was bound to a barber not In this city. I paid $25 cash down, and got half a bed and poor board. They put me on lathering first. Lathering looks easy, and fa easy, too; but you’ve no idea how awkwardly a new man will go about it So, when there were no customers around my boss would have one of the workmen Ue down in a choir and set mo to lather¬ ing his face. There fa a knack in getting over a soapy face deftly and quickly. Sometimes you use your fingers, other times the palm. An even pressure fa required that isn’t easy to get. If you press too hard you make it uncomfortable for tho man you’re lather¬ ing. The boss stood over me in these lessons and taught me tho points, one at a time. Then 1 lathered the face of a customer while the boss got ready to shave him. For several months I had to stand behind the boss’ chair while he was shaving and watch every motion of his hand and wrist—for a barber only uses the hand and wrist in shaving. Then, after shaving an imaginary face or two under the eyes of a barber to show me tho way a razor is held and moved, I was put to practice on the faces of the em¬ ployes. My boss stood over mo and watched every motion. Then he made me shave him. I trembled so that I cut him. It was a long, long time before they let me touch a customer, and then only when some good natured fellow who came often and knew mo invited me to try my hand upon his chin. Once in tho traces I got confidence and was a good Garber. Then my boss bad a good barber oound to him for over a year yet at no but board, and he was to get $23 •.<> boot, too, which was what I had i^reed to give him for the second year an well as the first." —New York Sun. i j Youuwe PURE ioht __ Its superior excellence proven in of homes for more than a quarter of a een tury.

A- W. HA88ELKUS. THE STAR. A GREAT NATIONAL DEMOCRATIC NEWSPAPER. The Stab fa the only New York newspaper possessing the fullest confidence of the Na¬ tional Administration and the United Dem¬ ocracy of New York, the political battle ground of the Republic. Jeffersonian Democracy, pure and simple, fa good enough for the Stab. Single hand¬ ed among the metropolitan press, it has stood by the men called by the great Democ¬ racy to redeem the government from twenty-five years of Republican wastefulness and corruption and despotism to the South. For these four years past it has been unswerv ing in its fidelity the administration of Grov¬ er Cleveland. It is for him now—for Clevec- land and Thurman—for four years more of Democratic honesty In onr national affairs, and of cor.Mcned national tranquility and prosperity. For people who like that sort of Democ racy the Stab fa the paper to read. The Stab stands squarely on the National Democratic platform. It believes that any tribute exacted from the people in excess of the demands of a government economically administered is essentially oppressive and dishonest. The scheme fostered and cham¬ pioned by the Republican part-of making the government a miser, wringing millions an nu&lly from the people and locking them up in vaults to serve no purpose but invite waste fulness and dishonesty, it regards as a mon¬ strous crime against the right of American citizenship. Republican political jugglers may call it ‘'protective taxation;" the Stab’s name for it is robbery. Through and through the Stab is a great newspaper. Its tone fa i ore and wholesome, its news serviee unexceptionable. Each Issue presents an epitome of what fa best worth knowing of the world’s history of yesterday. Its stories are told in good, quick, pictur- eque Edglish, and mfahty interesting read¬ ing they are. The Sunday Stab is as good as the best class magazine, and prints about the same amount of matter. Besides the day’s news it fa rich in special descriptive articles, sto lies, snatches of current literature, reviews, art criticism, etc. I> lette’s inimatible hu¬ mor sparkles in it- < ms; Will Carleton’s delightful letters .re i. its choice offerings.
