SCRAPED NOTEG MEN
Jacob Hysler of New York Has
Shaved Five Presidents.
Has Strict Rulea on Subject of Conver-
sation for Hi* Men—Generous and
Well-Known Persons Who
Have Patronized Him.
New York.—To have shaved five presi-
dentsof the United States is no mean dis-
tinction. This honor belongs to Jacob
Hysler, who started In business at Ninth
street and Droadway just 52 years ago.
Thirty-flve years ago he followed the
course of business and moved his es-
tablishment to the Windsor hotel,
where he remained 23 years, and for
the past 12 years has been at one of
the biggest uptown hotels. For many
years he had the barber shop in the
United States hotel at Saratoga.
Mr. Hysler Is the sort of man who
turns a trade Into a profession and
it is doubtless due to this fact that
he has enjoyed an exceptionally dis-
tinguished patronage. He is a tall,
well-built, genial man who carries his
75 years lightly, and whose face is
adorned with silvery white mutton-
chop whiskers.
Mr. Hysler's establishment requires
the assistance of 17 barbers, who
shave 300 men a day. He also em-
ploys a large number of manicures.
"One of my strictest rules," Mr. Hys-
ler said, "is that no barber in my em-
ploy shall enter into conversation with
a customer unless the man in the
chair shows a disposition to talk. If
the customer is talkative, the barber
who is attending to his wants is priv-
ileged to take part in the gabfest."
The five presidents shaved by Mr.
Hysler were Gen. Grant, Chester A.
Jacob Hysler.
Arthur, William McKinley, Theodore
Roosevelt and William H. Taft. He
has also shaved Vice-Presidents Fair-
banks and Sherman and William J.
Bryan and Alton B. Parker.
Among other notable men who have
submitted to Mr. Hysler's razors are
Moses H. Grlnnell, who backed Elisha
Kent Kane's search for the north pole;
Sir Henry M. Stanley, the African ex-
plorer; Gens. Franklin Smith and
Banks, and the present commander of
the department of the lakes, Gen.
Frederick D. Grant, also Gens. A. A.
Chaffee, H. C. Corbin and Nelson A.
Miles.
' His older customers included Pierre
Lorlllard, Cornelius Fellows, W. C.
Whitney, Jay Gould, William H. Van-
derbllt, Cornelius Vanderbllt; and
their sons, Harry Payne Whitney,
George, Kdwin, Frank and Howard
Gould; Alfred. Cornelius, Reginald,
Frederick, George W., William K. and
Harold Vanderbilt continue to pat-
ronize him. The late John' T. McCall
of the New York Life Insurance Com-
pany, Paul Morton of the Mutual, and
Henry M. Hyde of the Equitable, have
sat in his chairs.
Other distinguished patrons have
been Mark Twain, Frank MunBey,
James Gordon Bennett, William Ran-
dolph Hearst, William and John D.
Rockefeller, John D. Archbold, Andrew
Carnegie, Charles M. Schwab, George
We8tlnghou8e, Thomas Edison, Joseph
H. Choate, Whltelaw Reld, Gen. Stew-
ard L. Woodford, J. Pierpont Morgan,
George Perkins. Prince Auersperg,
who married Miss Hazard; Frank H.
Hitchcock, George B. Cortelyou, the
late Bishop Henry C. Potter, Bishop
Greer, Bishop McFall of Trenton, and
Bishop Duane of Albany, Ogden Mills,
A. H. Kissam, M. C. D. Borden, Presi-
dent Diaz of Mexico, Govs. Odell, Hig-
gins, Flower and Hill of New York,
and Douglas of Massachusetts.
Speaking If tips, Mr. Hysler re-
marked that the men In his employ are
treated generously by customers. The
average tip Is ten cents. Sometimes
they get a quarter. My barbers re-
ceive two dollars a day wages, and
each averages with his tips a fairly
good income.
"One of the most generous men who
came to me was W. C. Whitney, who,
besides giving a present to his barber
every month, presented him every sum-
mer with $100 for his vacation. An-
other very liberal man was H. H.
Rogers, who, every Christmas gave
a generous gift to each of the barbers
and manicures."
Seeks Funds for Indian College.
Rev. Dr. William Carey, a great-
grandson of the first Baptist foreign
missionary to India, himself a British
missionary to India, is In this country
consulting with the American Baptist
Missionary union concerning a plan
to raise In this country $1,000,000 of a
$'.0,000,000 endowment fund for Ser-
ainpore college, in the province ot
Bengal.

TOLD TO USE CUTICURA.
After Specialist Failed to Cure Her In-
tense Itching Eczema—Had Been
Tortured and Disfigured But
Wat Soon Cured of Dread Humor.
**I contracted eczema and suffered
Intensely for about ten months. At
times I thought I would scratch my-
self to pieces. My face and arms were
covered with large red patches, so
that I was ashamed to go out. I was
advised to go to a doctor who was
a specialist In skin diseases, but I
received very little relief. I tried
every known remedy, with the same
results. I thought I would never get bet-
ter until a friend of mine told me to try
the Cutlcura Remedies. So I tried them,
and after four or five applications of
Cutlcura Ointment I was relieved of
my unbearable Itching. I used two
sets of the Cutlcura Remedies, and I
am completely cured. Miss Barbara
Krai, Highlandtown, Md., Jan. 9, "08."

Discussing missionary work, Mme.
Helene Vlncente, the well-known Con-
go missionary, said at a dinner in
Cleveland:
"A Chinese heaven strikes you as
ludicrous. Yet here in your own coun-
try you are careful to fit heaven and
the—er —other place to your people's
dislikes.
"Thus, on my recent southern trip,
I heard a Georgia negro divine de-
scribe hades as Ice cold, a place
where the wicked shiver and freeze
through all eternity. I asked the di-
vine why he altered in that radical
manner the usual description of
hades, and he replied:
" 'Ah don' darst tell mah people nuf-
fln' else, marm. Why, if Ah sed hades
wuz wahm, some o' dese ole rheumat-
ic breddern an' sistern o' mine would
be wantin' ter staht right down dah
come fust frost.' "
One Cause of Neck Boils.
Neck bolls come with the sweaty
season. Many people have large hair
pores on the back of the neck. The
sweaty, starched collar rim is good
culture soil for boll and carbuncle
germs, which get rubbed into the
large hair follicles or sacks, producing
a painful, sometimes dangerous
spreading crop.
Saving Her Blushes.
"I have here," said the young in-
ventor, "a device that will be a boon
to the typists."
"What is It?" asked the manufac-
turer of typewriters.
"It's an extra key. Whenever the
operator can't spell a word she
presses this key and it makes a
blur!"

HOME TESTING
A Sure and Easy Test on Coffe*.
To decide the all Important ques-
tion of coffee, whether or not it is
really the hidden cause of physical
ails and approaching fixed diseases,
one should make a test of ten days by
leaving off coffee entirely and using
well-made Postum.
If relief follows you may know to
a certainty that coffee has been
your vicious enemy. Of course you
can take It back to your heart again,
if you like to keep sick.
A lady says: "I had suffered with
stomach trouble, nervousness and ter-
rible sick headaches ever since I was
a little child, for my people were al-
ways great coffee drinkers and let us
children have all we wanted. I got
so 1 thought I could not live without
coffee, but I would not acknowledge
that It caused my suffering.
"Then I read so many articles about
Postum that I decided to give it a fair
trial. I had not used it two weeks in
place of coffee until I began to feel
like a different person. The headache
and nervousness disappeared and
whereas I used to be sick two or three
days out of a week while drinking cof-
fee I am now well and strong and
sturdy seven days a week, thanks to
Postum.
"I had been using Postum three
months and had never been sick a
day when I thought I would experi-
ment and see it It really was coffee
that caused the trouble, so I began
to drink coffee again and inside of a
week I had a sick spell. I was so 111
I was soon convinced that coffee was
the cause of all my misery and I went
back to Postum with the result that
( was soon well and strong again and
determined to Btlck to Postum and
leave coffee alone In the future."

WHY PEOPLE SUFFER.
Too often the kidneys are the cause
and the sufferer Is not aware of It.
Sick kidneys bring backache and side
pains, lameness and stiffness, dizzi-
ness, headaches, tired feeling, urinary
troubles. Doan's Kid-
ney Pills cure the
cause. Mrs. N. E.
Braves, Villlsca,
Iowa, says: "I suf-
fered from kidney
trouble for years.
The secretions were
disordered, there
were pains In my back and swellings
of the ankles. Often I had smother-
ing spells. I had to be helped about.
Doan's Kidney Pills cured me five
years ago and I have been well since.
They saved my life."
Remember the name—Doan's. For
sale by all dealers. 50 cents a box.

Exchanging Solemn Thoughts.
"Ah, says the man with the parted
whiskers, "when one stands alone In
the night and contemplates the won-
ders of creation, how futile, how puny
man seems! How vain, how puerile
his hopes and longings, when he is
surrounded by the eternal silence of
the universe! Has this ever occurred
to you?"
"You bet!" answers the man with
the big scarf pin. "He feels just as
punk as he does when he misses the
owl car and has to stand on the cor-
ner an hour for another one."—Chi-
cago Post.
A Gentle Aspersion.
Among the prisoners brought before
a Chicago police magistrate one Mon-
day morning was one, a beggar, whose
face was by no means an unfamiliar
one to the judge.
"I am informed that you have again
been found begging in the public
streets," said his honor, sternly, "and
yet you carried in your pocket over
$10 in currency."
"Yes, your honor," proudly returned
the mendicant. "I may not be as in-
dustrious as some, but sir, 1 am no
spendthrift."—Harper's Weekly.

Spectacular Oil Fire.
The most spectacular fire ever wit-

About 60,000 barrels of oil were
burned up daily for nearly two
months. The flames rose to heights
of 800 to 1,400 feet.

LEWIS' "SINGLE BINDER."
A hand-made cigar fresh from the
table, wrapped In foil, thus keeping
fresh until smoked. A fresh cigar
made of good tobacco is the ideal
smoke. The old, well cured tobaccos
used are so rich In quality that many
who formerly smoked 10c cigars now
smoke Lewis' Single Binder Straight
6c. Lewis' Single Binder costs the
dealer some more than other 5c cigars,
but the higher price enables this fac-
tory to use extra quality tobacco.
There are many Imitations; don't be
fooled. There is no substitute! Tell
the dealer you want a Lewis "Single
Binder."
