Joe.” said tiie boss. And a gloomy silence followed. We ventured to break this silence. "W'hat was the trouble?”* “Joe forgot,” said the boss, ‘to l**rt the man's hair. He only just slicked down the sides and back.’ “But the man has no hair!” “He was as bald as an egg,” “No matter,’” said A. B. "No matter for that. The balder a man is the more punctilously you must make an imaginary parting on his coco, and the more care fully you must plaster down the imaginary hair to left and right. He'll quit you forever if you \ don't. “It isn't so ridiculous as it seems.” the barber ended. "Every »*kl man, even Jim Burnett hi st udying his head in a certain light, manages to find a bit of fuzz on it. This fuzz be brushes reli jgiously a half dozen times a day. | It doesn't seem to him that he's I Iwld. Hair’s a little too thin, I perhaps. But he’s not bald—not iudd, like Wrill Schuman or Lan Benschoter—oh, no! "And you break his heart when, | after you shave him. you neglect to brush his fuzz. Is he then really as bald as Burleigh? Curses no? You’re a fool, that’s all. He goes out, slamming the loor, and he patronizes thereaf te. a barber who will fuss over his white dome as though it was Salmon's.” | LOCAL NEWS.
