And now, a quote from Dr. Ruddock, The beard and the moustache
should be permitted to grow as they afford an excellent protection
to the delicate organs of the voice of those in whom it is subjected
to undue or irregular exercise. After a public address, the tissues
in the vicinity of the throat become relaxed and on leaving the place
of assembly and entering the open air, inflammatory action commences,
and if repeated, chronic affections of the throat and bronchial tubes
are often induced; but the unshorn natural respirator, which our Maker
intended to be one of the distinguishing features of the male seed,
effectively protects these important parts. The hair planted on the
human face by the wisdom and goodness of our Creator, has its uses,
and we may add, its beauties. Let the young man, therefore, never
become a slave to the false and pernicious fashion which compels
him to shave off the beard, as it is found contributory to the
health, if not the personal improvement, of those who wear it."
recommended growth of beard and moustache not only for prevention
of sore throat and hoarseness of voice, but for avoiding bronchitis
as well.
the beard and moustache are a .kind of a natural respirator,
the shaving off of which is a frequent cause of acute and chronic
bronchitis. Can we doubt the wisdom and beneficence of the Creator
in giving this ornament to the man, who is so frequently exposed to
atmospheric vicissitudes, and withholding it from the woman, who as
the keeper at home, requires no such appendage? Hair is an imperfect
conductor of both heat and cold and placed round the entrance to the
nose and lungs and acts as a blanket, which promotes warmth in cold
weather and prevents the dissolving of ice in hot weather. In many
instances, the hirsute appendages would protect lawyers, clergymen
or other public speakers and singers from the injurious effects of
rapid variations of the atmosphere from which professional men so
often suffer.
