"Why is it?" “There are a good many reasons,” answered the veteran knight of the blade "I suppose the chief one is that a barber’s b ind becomes unsteady after he gets to lie about 40 years old and he has to give up. A good many barters drink hard, and that makes their nerves and bauds unfit for service, and they retire before they cut their customers throats Still, 1 will say that in all mj experience of 87 years 1 never saw a man badly cut by a barber, not even by an accident for which the barter was not responsible. ' “What 1 (comes of the barters after they retir< “Oh, sou. of them go to the poor house," he i' died, with a twinkle in his eye, “ano some of them, who liave saved their wages, buy little places and live on them. |>erhapH running a farm.

This isn't such a wide difference from tiieir former business (what are you laughing at?) us it might seem. No, 1 don't mean that they learn to carve |ieople or oven to skin them the barter business, but they learn how to handle a blade skillfully and they make first class meat cutters. ” Pipe Made of a Seal's Task.
