A Barber’s Blunder
The man. leaving the barber

^ ou ve lost him,” said Young
"You’ve lost him for good.”
I know, sai<l Joe. ’But hang
it, I forgot.’
“You shouldn't forget. 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.

I perhaps. But he’s not bald—not

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.”
