XVIII JUSTICE T COLOREI Senators Foraker and S Fight for Justice Soldiers Senator Foraker of Ohio, aided by Senator Scott of West Virginia, is making a great fight for justice for the colored soldiers who were discharged from the army recently. In answer to a special message which the president sent relating to the troops, Senator Foraker stated that the president had misconceived his constitutional power as well as the evidence upon which he acted so hastily in dismissing the colored batallion. The president stated in his message that there were scores of eyewitnesses to the shooting; Senator Foraker showed, according to the president's official report, that there were but eight persons who claimed to be eyewitnesses to the shooting; that all of these persons were white citizens of Brownsville and gave their testimony not under oath. The president declares that all of the troops which he dismissed are murderers; that none is innocent. If this is true, declared Senator Foraker, every man in the batallion deserves to be hung; if they are innocent, as they are until proven guilty, and their guilt has not been proved, then a crime has been committed against them. If the president has been misled by his investigating officers, declares Senator Foraker, he should rescind his action and restore the men who have been so greatly wronged to the service. This discussion grew out of a resolution --- DENVER, COLORADO, FRIDAY, DEC. 28, 1906. introduced in the senate by Senator Foraker looking to an investigation by the senate of the Brownsville riot, and with the further view to showing that the president had exceeded his constitutional pewsr in dismissing the soldiers under him without trial as prescribed by the articles of war. It is now evident that an investigation is to be had into the trouble and the facts in the case established according to law. If there be facts against the colored soldiers, we would like to have them; but if there is no evidence against them, save that which has thus far been adduced, they are innocent, according to our system of jurisprudence. Senator Foraker is taking a strong position and is proceeding as the trained lawyer that he is, and in the end will win. He has perceived the weakness of the language of the president in its violence. The president has tried to make a strong case by the use of violent and bitter language. Such a performance can hardly appeal favorably to the thinking people of our country. We will await the developments after the holidays when Senator Foraker and others will take up the case and fight it to a finish. The Richards Literary Club held its second meeting last Thursday evening. A paper was read by Miss M. L. Evans upon the Negro as a musician. It took the Negro musicians of the last century in its purview and gave the contributions of each to the advancement made by the colored people in that splendid art. Miss Evans chose as her authority-in-chief, the work of J. M. Trotter on "Music and Some Highly Musical People." It is well to observe that the work by Mr. Trotter who is the father of that foremost exponent of liberty for his race, Wm. Monroe Trotter, has never been fully appreciated, and the fact that a musician trained as Miss Evans is, having studied under some of our great masters, relies upon the work as the highest authority, brings it to our view with a renewed impressiveness. The paper read by Miss Evans was elegant in its simplicity and sublime in its treatment of the great masters of color. She paid a lofty tribute to Mr. J. M. Trotter for his contribution to mankind, and gave it as her opinion that Miss Mary L. Europe of this city is the most finished pianist we have in the race. Her reading was interspersed with piano renditions, illustrating the music of the different authors and the songs sung by those of whose life she was writing. At the conclusion of the paper, Miss Essie Jackson read extracts from the "Souls of Black Fold on Negro Folk Song." During her reading, a quartet rendered some of the songs sung by the Fiske Jubilee Singers, and at the conclusion of her reading, a general discussion followed. A solo was then rendered by Miss Evelyn Lynch, and the company retired to the realm of repast. The Literary, at this early day, gives promise of a splendid season, and the benefits will be immeasurable to all those who have the privilege of attending its meeting. Superintendent Chancellor of the public schools has been South and returned. He went to Georgia to study race conditions. Upon his return he found a Fillipino problem. The question was, "Shall the Fillipino Children go to School with the White Children?" Chancellor says they will; the prejudiced whites say differently. And so it goes. This school situation is surely a riddle and we do not believe that Chancellor can solve it. Hhe wrote a book on education once. (Continued on page 1) NO.24 RETIRING SECRETARY OF STATE It is with Regret that the People of the State Part with Hon. James Cowie FIRST APOSTLE OF OPEN DOOR And that His Judgment was Wise is Backed by the Record of His Appointees. While it is an undeniable fact that Negro republicans have some claim upon the party, and are entitled to share the spoils of office, it has so long been the recognized thing to award us places as from a prescribed list. It is, therefore, of more than passing note that the first of the year will retire from public office the [Picture of a man in a suit with a tie]. HON. JAMES COWIE "first apostle of the open door" so far as state politics is concerned. We refer to James Cowie, who for two terms has been the efficient secretary of state for this state. The whole state will regret to lose so capable an official and one who has filled his place with so much grace and accommodation that it has been a pleasure for all who have had business with his department. But especially will he be missed by the colored people. The appointment of a colored woman (Continued on page 9) (Continued from page 1) in which he said: "Decade by decade the masses of the Negroes have sunk in poverty, debt and ignorance. They are not becoming American in physique, intelligence, enterprise or aspiration. On the contrary, their crimes against persons indicate reversion from those habits of civilization to which they conformed, at least outwardly, in all earlier periods." Further on he says: "The great obvious fact of the last thirty-five years is that the separation of the white and black in the system of free labor has not produced for the latter even that appearance of progress which was plain in the system of servitude." This, we take it, is sufficient to show what Dr. Wm. E. Chancellor thinks about the colored people of this country. He made this output in 1900, and being a man of mature years then we do not feel that he has changed his views. Our regret in the matter is that some of the colored newspaper correspondents, who pose as great race men, have persistently defended this man; therefore, these sayings. But Chancellor must go, and the men who have sought to win his favor and get something will be disappointed, dinscredited and relegated to the rear where they belong. Dr. A. M. Curtis, who, in our opinion, is the best surgeon the colored people have in this country today, and through whose eminent abilities the Medical Department of Howard University has been so greatly benefited, has just returned from Mahara Medical College, where he has been delivering a course of lectures. Dr. Curtis stated that the Medical College of Mahara has nearly four hundred students and among them many men of high proficiency. He stated he was greatly surprised both as to the size of the school and the excellence of its work, and made the significant prophecy that the field for colored physicians is by no means overcrowded. This latter statement is very important, coming as it does from so careful a student as Dr. Curtis. It suggests that those who have ambition in the direction indicated have a hopeful future in which to work. Dr. Curtis, it will be recalled, was at one time the surgeon-in-chief at Freedmen's Hospital, and under his administration the hospital did some of the best work of its life. This fact, together with the eminent abilities of Dr. Curtis and his broad usefulness throughout the country as a surgeon, would seem to indicate that wisdom would dictate his appointment as the surgeon-in-chief of the New Freedmen's Hospital. We move the appointment of Dr. Curtis as surgeon-in-chief of the New Freedmen's Hospital. Who will second the motion. Last Saturday the southern daily THE STATESMAN. DENVER. COLORADO. papers reported that Captain Macklin of Company C, 25th U. S. Infantry, was shot by a masked Negro. They asserted as a fact that the man who did the shooting was one of the discharged soldiers of the 25th regiment. There was no proof of this, and the colored people are seldom proved guilty in the South. It is enough that some crime be committed and immediately it is asserted it was done by a Negro. This is the policy of the South, and has been for the last half century. They have lied—lied so persistently—until they have brought many people of the North to think as they think of the Negro; but the truth will out. The great daily papers of the country which did not agree with the action of the president in dismissing the colored troops have not changed their views since the president sent his message to congress. They assert that they find nothing new in the message and argue that villifying accusation is indicative of a weak case, and but the output of a shortsighted statesman. His whole message, they say, shows him to be a disappointed and bitter man, making a desperate effort to go out of office loved by the South, as he has been discredited in the North; in New York. Judge Anderson of the District Supreme Court has just rendered the decision in the case of Mr. F. L. Cardozo in his mandamus proceedings against the board of education of the District of Columbia. Judge Anderson pronounced the action of the board of education in claiming that Mr. Cardozo was not entitled to a trial on the ground that he was not a teacher, the veriest nonsense. Taking up the other contentions of the board that Mr. Cardozo had had a trial and had been treated fairly be designated as absurd, and held that Mr. Cardozo was not out of the system; that the writ of mandamus should lie. This decision is one of the most important that has been rendered here in many years, and in effect undoes the action of this present board from the date of its appointment. It means, in short, as we see it, that all those persons who have been appointed by this board in those places presumably made vacant by the dismissal of teachers will have to be removed, and that in the future all persons who are to be removed must be removed according to law, after charges have been preferred and a trial held. We will not dismiss this discussion without referring to the services rendered Mr. Cardozo by Attorney James A. Cobb, who was one of the lawyers in the Cardozo case. Nor would we confine the service rendered to Mr. Cardozo; for it is broader than that; it is a service to the community and the country; to the white race and the colored race; to the present and to the future. It was Mr. Cobb who did most of the work in preparing the case and to him chief credit is due TAKE THAT TRIP! For business or pleasure VIA THE MIDLAND. City Ticket Office, 17th & California Streets.

Walker’s Parlors 2317 Lawrence St. MISS LELIA MeWILLIAMS,” SUOCES®OR MEANT TO RESCUE NAPOLEON. British Smuggler Planned Submarine Boat for the Purpose. One of the earliest suggestions of the submarine was that of a British smuggler, Johnson, who invented a boat that was to travel under or above water. With this vessel he proposed to carry Napoleon from St. Helena, but the emperor died while the boat was under construction. The adherents of the emperor promised Johnson $200,000 on the day the boat was ready to start and an immense sum if it proved successful. Some years later Johnson built a boat with which he experimented in the Thames for the British admiralty. In this connection it may be mentioned that one of Napoleon's marshals, Massena, began life as a smuggler on a large scale and Commodore Thurot of the French navy of that time obtained his knowledge of the British coast while in the employ of a smuggler. Seeing Where You Go. A bookkeeper lost one of his eyes by walking against a clothesline in the dark in an attic. Will it pay us to remember that and use his experience for the one chance in a million there is of its being useful to us? How many people have had their eyes injured in that way? How many things can we afford to keep in our memory for the sake of accuracy? A few minutes ago a pedestrian ran into the rope on a sled on which was a boy pulled by another boy. The puller passed him and he turned and walked in front of the sled because he did not see the rope because he was tired and thinking hard. The boy who had passed him was bright enough to prevent trouble by a quick action, but the man had a chance to fall and break his hip, and some broken hips do not heal. Should we remember this?—Earl M. Pratt Aldebaran. Like a fire in the field of night, I saw the Red Star shine, The Red Star, the gypsy star, And I claimed its light for mine; The watcher by the flame, The guide o'er moor and fen, That beckoning waves his rosy torch For wild and wandering men. Like a disk of the ruddy gold I saw the Red Star gleam. The Red Star, the gypsy star, That roves in the roads of dream; Across the empty years He flung his splendid store. As a Romany plays with handfuls bright, In the shade of the low tent door. Like a horseshoe on the forge, I saw the Red Star glow, The Red Star, the gypsy star, Whose trail the vagabonds know; Beating the bounds of earth, Beneath the alien skies. They wend with joy in their homeless hearts Who have seen the Red Star rise. —Pall Mall Gazette. Muscles of the Skin. The muscles of the skin need a gymnastic training that will educate them to contract vigorously on the slightest contact with cold, shutting the blood out of the skin so quickly that the precious body heat will not be lost. When the skin is cold there is a "goose-flesh" appearance, due to the contraction of the little muscles of the skin. The contraction of these muscles compresses the blood vessels of the skin and shuts out the blood; the skin is hardened and thickened, and becomes a better nonconductor, maintaining the body temperature. It is by repeated applications of cold that skin muscles are educated to contract rapidly upon exposure for the prevention of colds. THE STATESMAN, DENVER, COLORADO. Proprietors. Phone Main 3785.

Though stamps are not usually sold by weight, a ton from the island of Cypress was recently bought by a London firm dealing in this commodity. For a time British stamps with an appropriate surcharge were in use here, but owing to change in the currency from pence to plastres these became obsolete. The firm of Staney Gibbons offered $4,000 for those left over. There were six or seven million stamps in the lot, and they weighed a ton.—New York Herald. Comfort for the Homely. Every girl that is dissatisfied with herself should remember that she is better looking than the kindest of cooking-glasses bids her believe. A mirror cannot flatter a face that is in its natural state—that is, not "made up." Even the very best plate-glass has a pale green tinge which reflects a color a trifle less clear than the original. Hair also has always a more glossy sheen than the glass shows. Philadelphia Inquirer. Advisers of the Czars. The great czars of Russia, somebody said, when they want a man, go out into the street and find one. It is another way of saying that the czar's ministers spring from nowhere. It is almost true. Russia has had an empress who began life as a peasant and married a Swedish dragoon, and it was an Armenian who all but destroyed the autocracy of the czars and set Russia among the progressive nations. Sergius De Witte, descendant of a Dutchman, started at a wayside railway station on a career which has brought him almost at the head of the state. So, too, with the man who today holds the key of all the mysteries of the great Russian war machine. Alexei Nicholaievitch Kuropatkin began life as a sublieutenant.—London Answers. Some Religious Blang. Francis Wilson, the comedian, has recently added to his large and valuable library a collection of English tracts and sermons of the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries. These pamphlets are interesting on account of the strange phraseology—a kind of religious slang—which they reveal. Their titles exemplify this slang well, and the following are a few of them: "The Spiritual Mustard Pot, to Make the Soul Sneeze With Devotion." "The Snuffers of Divine Love." "Crumbs of Comfort for Hungry Hoseas." "Biscuits Baked in the Oven of Charity, Carefully Conserved for Chickens of the Church, Sparrows of the Spirit, and Sweet Swallows of Salvation." Jokea by Freight. Lieut. Randolph of the United States navy was the center of attraction one evening at an entertainment given by the British officers at Gibraltar. His witty sayings and anecdotes kept the guests in roars of laughter. One of the British officers met Randolph the following morning, and said: "I lieut. Randolph, I have been thinking over some of your jokes this morning, and, by Jove! they are clever; deucedly clever." And Randolph replied: "Thanks; I'm glad you've got them at last; by freight." And the Englishman walked away, tapping his forehead and repeating thoughtfully, "By freight!"—Chicago Record-Herald. DENVER DOINGS. WAIT. WAIT.

The Asbury Club, which numbers some of the city's best known entertainers was host at a dancing party. It was swell. The hall was dainty and the evening one of few which are memorable for society folk, whether old or new. Holley's orchestra furnished the music. Mrs. Nannie King and her mother, Mrs. Watkins, have returned from a visit to Salt Lake. She goes next week to Kansas City on another trip. W. E. Owens has been spending the holidays in the city from Idaho Springs. James Cartwright is in Kansas City spending a few days visiting and on business. By far the most enjoyable of all the entertainments given by the Buckingham Club at East Turner Hall last Thursday evening. The crowd gathered in great numbers and by midnight it was a jam. The best of music was discoursed by the Harris Orchestra and the floor managers and members of the Club took good care that each guest had a good time. Several fancy costumes and many comic ones were worn by contestants for the prizes. One feature of the entertainment was the souvenir program. It was the swellest that has ever been used in this city and was the work of the Statesman office. Two colors and fancy stock made it well worth keeping as a gem of the printers' art. The piano contest at the Mecca Cafe Christmas night was won by Henry Perry of Omaha. It was a unique evening's entertainment and the patrons of this popular resort had such enjoyment as is uncommon. Mr. and Mrs. Lacy were hosts and did THE STATESMAN, DENVER, COLORADO. the honors of the season with grace. The Cafe was crowded until early morning.

Reginald De Koven, the well-known composer, was speaking with some scorn of a foreign musician whose productions were not always so original as they pretended to be. "I should like to use this fellow," said Mr. De Koven, "as a character in a comic opera. I would give him long hair, a velvet coat and a pocket fiddle, and in the second act I would have him kidnapped by brigands and hidden away in a remote cavern. Mr. De Koven laughed at his odd fancy and went on: Here the brigand chief visits him. The chief says: " 'From your costume am i to judge you to be a strolling musician?' " 'Not at all,' is the haughty answer. 'I am a composer.' " 'What are your works?' the chief asks. "The other enumerates his operas and the chief says: " 'Sing me an aria from "The Pink Stocking" in your best manner.' "The composer sings the aria and at its end the brigand chief, rising in great excitement, orders the shackles to be stricken from his limbs. " 'So you steal?' he cries. 'Then go in peace. I never exact tribute from a colleague.'"

THE SOUTHERN WAY RAILROAD SURVEYOR TELLS OF TEXAS HOSPITALITY. Situation in Which He Was Placed Made Him Think It the Greatest Welcome He Ever Received—First Impression Not Favorable. The man who had been in southwest Texas looking over the route for a prospective railroad had been interested in a reference to hospitality in its truest sense. "All day long I had been driving with a man in the dust and the question of a camping place involved finding the necessary water," he said. "There were no streams, no water holes, only dust and hills and alkali. "Just before sundown we came in sight of some scrubby timber rising from a draw ahead of us and we started for it. Just as we turned the ridge we noticed a lonesome looking shack in the edge of the trees, and we drove up to it just as darkness came on. "The first sight of anything living was a lean foxhound that dashed out at us, baying; he was followed by two more and after these a pair of collies and then a miscellaneous collection of dogs of all shades and breeds, bent upon attacking us, but snarling and biting even among themselves. "Suddenly a long, lean figure of a man with a hairy face out of which only a pair of eyes and the tip of a nose was showing charged upon the dogs with a stick, sending them scuttling under the house again. Then without a word he came up to us with his eyes fixed on the horses. "It was not an ideal situation for a fagged team and two worn, thirsty men, but I tackled the proposition. I didn't mention anything about a railroad, but I laid beautiful stress upon our condition and our needs for a camping place where there was water. "And while I talked he was looking over the team from the front. As I talked some more in my most engaging manner he stepped around to the side of the off horse to look him over, broadside. "It could be the greatest favor imaginable if only we might stop here," I continued. 'We will make you no trouble and are more than willing to pay for feed for our team.' "He was at the side of the off horse by this time, and I was almost too discouraged to say anything more, thinking perhaps that we had been taken for a pair of horsethieves. I had made another attempt to move him, however, when he straightened up, expectorated an immense charge of tobacco juice under the horse and looked into my face for the first time. "Want to stay all night, hey" "I was trying to tell him again just how much we wanted to do that very thing when he broke in: "Well, if you want to stay all night, I reckon you've struck the damnedest most lively place this side of the Pecos river." "Hospitality?" repeated the man who had been in Texas. "Say, that was the greatest welcoming I ever had in my life!"—New York Sun. Oral to be Kind. This story is told of a well-known Philadelphia physician. He was called, recently to the bedside of a man whom he had never before seen. "Why," asked the physician of the patient's wife, "did you delay sending her until your husband was unconscious?" THE STATESMAN, DENVER, COLORADO. J. W. Lavell, secretary; W. A. Rice, past E.

Policy is again raising its vicious head in this city. The little cubby holes all over the city with their cabalistic signs, 14-11-44," are daily receiving their contribution from the poor of this city to the shame of the law and the disgrace of our civilization. Of all forms of gambling practiced, this is the one which makes its prey of those who are least able to lose. It is pitiful to see the pittance of the poor given over under such conditions as this game imposes upon its devotees. It won't do to say that policy players are privileged to do as they wish with their money. In a majority of cases the loss of this money means that the county is burdened with charges, the courts choked with criminals who both from poverty and depraved surroundings take to crime to retrieve their lost money. The pulpits of this city should take this matter up and urge that the city authorities force policy out of business. It has done it before and can do so again. We can stand for some things but policy, NEVER! ENCOURAGEMENT APPRECIATED The management of this paper has appreciated the thoughtfulness of several subscribers who have wished us the greetings of the season and accompanied it with their subscription in full. It is a good custom which prevails in China of clearing up all indebtedness on New Year's day. We commend this to those who desire to see the usefulness of the press continue and grow to greater good for the people it represents. It is a sorry task, furnishing brains for a paper which does not get sufficient financial support to be a successful business venture. Do not put it off. A Negro business has a slight handicap to overcome in maintaining its reputation for business integrity and reliability. The Statesman cannot keep its credit if its patrons fail to meet their obligations to it. Just think this over and act. A bill prepared by the New England Suffrage League has been introduced into Congress asking that it restore to the colored troops who were summarily discharged from the army by the president, the right of re-enlistment in the army under the same conditions as prevailed previous to the order of discharge and asking that they be not debarred from civil employment under the government, nor deprived of any of the privileges which they had earned up to that time. It is a mild bill and deserves the consideration of Congress. Its passage will not burden the president with any onus of blame, but will right the wrong without inquiry into the demerits of his contentions. It is unfortunate that President Roosevelt, who usually has such sound common sense, has incorporated so much extraneous matter in his reply to Congress concerning this matter. We appreciate all he has done for us, but can hardly acquiesce in his opinions that we are peculiarly a people given to rape, that we owe it to ourselves to associate with the criminal elements of our race in order to turn informers, not in the main proposition that any man is guilty of alleged crime who does not prove himself innocent. It is of no consequence in the consideration of this discharge of the soldiers that the president is a friend of industrial education. He is an officer of the law sworn to do duty and deal justly. All we ask is a fair deal. We do not appreciate any play to the galleries that may be made by him or anybody else to make us feel that we are objects of special solicitude. Give us a man's chance, and then if we fail, we deserve to fail. Special legislation is harmful for us; special proscription is unjust. for the grand benefit ball of the Soda Dispensers to be given at East Turner Hall January 8. Harris' Famous Orchestra.

RETIRING SECRETARY OF STATE (Continued from page 1) as clerk is noteworthy. The minor places are good as far as they go, but our course is upward and opportunity to show what we can do is the one road to wider usefulness. It is to Mr. Cowie that is due the credit for the exceptional reputation that Mrs. DePriest bears for efficient clerical work. With the leverage that one good representative has given us, it is entirely probable that the continuation of a colored clerk in the secretary of state's office will be but a matter of course. In fact, it is now the common understanding that the secretary-elect, Mr. Timothy O'Connor, will follow the precedent established. To be the first to cross the continent is to be celebrated in history and story. To be the first to brave the demon of race proscription and regard man for the internal and not the external qualifications is to receive from right minded men the same or even a greater mead of praise. We would that some substantial recognition of the good that Mr. Cowie has done us were possible at this time. Yet the time will come. Bread cast upon the waters will return, though sometimes after many days. The colored people of the state hope some day to show Mr. Cowie how well they remember his consideration of them. The Statesman be speaks for them their gratitude. Joseph Montlier and "Farmer" Jones were hosts last Saturday night at a stag luncheon and card party at the home of Mrs. Benning.

The Canadian government has issued a census bulletin, which gives statistics as to agriculture in Alberta, Assiniboia and Saskatchewan, which united comprise the Northwest territory. The total area of these territories is 190,962,117 acres. Of this area, 75.99 per cent is unimproved. Field crops, exclusive of hay, occupy 63 per cent of the improved land, but only a fair beginning has been made with fruit trees and vegetables. The area of land in wheat, oats, barley, rye, corn, peas, potatoes and other field roots in 1891 was 194,773 acres, an increase in a decade of 333 per cent. Public installation of the U. B. F. S. M. T. will be at the Odd Fellows' hall, 1712 Curtis St., Tuesday Jan. 8, 1907. The public is cordially invited Refreshments will be served by the Juveniles. The local orators will try themselves in the grand oratorical and declamation contest to be at Shorter Chapel Thursday, December 10, under the direction of the University Club.

Only two places exist on this globe where one can pass through three zones of temperature—the tropical, subtropical and temperate—within an hour's time. Hawaii is one of these places and Darjeeling, in northeastern India, is another. In both these places the trick is done by climbing up the high mountains. In Hawaii the traveler starts with the warm breath of the Pacific fanning him amid the smell of palm trees. He passes by great clusters of tropical fruit and as he mounts the trees change, until he is in the kind of scenery that may be found in the southern United States. Still he climbs, and soon he notices that it is much cooler and that the character of the scene has changed to one that reminds him of the temperate zone, with fields in which potatoes and other northern vegetables are growing. In Darjeeling the change is still more wonderful. The entrance to the tableland on which the little mountain city stands is through a dark, somber tropical pass, full of mighty palms and hung with orchids and other jungle growth. After a while the trees change from palms to the wonderful tree ferns. These alternate with banana trees, until, after some more climbing, forests are reached of magnolias and similar trees. Through these magnolias the way leads ever up, and all at once, over an open pass, there came into view immense thickets of Himalayan rhododendrons and the evergreen of firs and cedars, and beyond stand the white, grim, snow-clad, frozen mountain peaks like arctic icebergs on land. In less than two hours a traveler can ascend from orchids through jungles to tea plantations and thence to a climate of northern roses and violets. Wisdom of the Barber. "It always makes me tired," said the old barber, "when a man tells me to quit wasting so much time rubbing in the lather and hurry along with his shave. If he only knew it, he is laying a sure foundation for a chapped and sore face. The reason for using soap in shaving is to remove the grease always close to the skin, and on the surface of the board. This can not be done without rubbing it well in Many persons who shave themselves do not understand this, and wonder why they have sore faces. They blame the bay rum, and change off to witch hazel or something else. Rubbing the soap in well makes the beard soft and pliable. It also lessens the chances of the razor slipping. Always rub the lather well in with the fingers; never with the brush. What must one think of a man who has not time enough to let the barber shave him properly, but who spends ten minutes chatting with the girl at the cigar counter, or with the manicure girl, on his way out of the shop?"
