Nature combining, as she never fails to dn, the useful with the ornamental, pro- vide us with a far better respirator: than science could ever make, and one that is never so hideous to wear as that black seal vpon the face which looks like a passport fo the realms of suffering and death. ' The hair of the moustache not only absorbs the moist= ure and miasma of fogs, but 1t strains. the air from dust and the soot of our great smoky cities. It acts also in' the most scientifig manner, by taking heat from the warm breath as it leaves the chest and supplying it to the cold arrtaken in. The beard is not only a respirator, but with the beard entire, we are provided with a comfort as well, and these are never left at home, like the um- brellas and all such appliances whenever they are wanted, Moffat and Livingstone, the Atrican explorers, and mauy other tras vellers, say that in the night no wrapper can equal the beard. The remarkable thing, too, is that the beard, like the hair of the head, protects against the heat of the sun ; it-acts as a thatch does to an ice-house, but more than this, it becomes moist with, the prespiration, aud then, by evaporation, cools (he skin. A man who aceept this protection of rature's, may face 'the rudest storm and the hardest wirters; Hg may go froma the hottest room into the éolder without any dread ; and we. veri he might sicepinal morass wil --at least his chances of escaping' rible fever would be better than hi less companions.
