What tho Man Wanted When He Got
In the Barbers Chair
Tho baldbeaded nan with four days
growth of beard ou his cblu entered
the barbers shop and sat down in one
of the operating chairs
Shave sir
No growled the man In the chair
I want to bo measured for a suit of
clothes
This Isnt a bailor shop sir
What is ltV
Its a barber shop
What work do you do In this shop
Shave men and cut their hair sir
Do you think a man with no hair on
bis bead would come here to have bis
hair cut
No sir
Then presuming me to be a sane
man but baldhcaded what would you
naturally suppose I came for
For a shave
Then why did you ask me If
I wanted a shave when I took a seat
In jour chair Why didnt you go to
work at once If some of you barbers
would cultivate a habit of inferring
from easily ascertained data instead
of developing such wonderful conver
sational powers it would be of mate
rial aid in advancing you in your
chosen vocation and of expanding
your profits Do you comprehend
Yes sir replied the man as he be
gan to lather the customers face in a
dazed sort of way And he never even
asked him if he wanted brilliantine on
when the operation was performed
EPICURES STUDY HOTELS
Then They Go One Place or Another
as Fancy Dictates
Epicures accustomed to dining in ho
tels and restaurants study the policy
of each fashionable place and readily
tell just why they go to one place or
avoid another They have their likes
and dislikes aside from actual eating
regarding the waiters the music the
ventilation and a hundred and one
other things a casual visitor would
fail to appreciate
For instance at one restaurant only
single portions are served for one per
son At another where the cooking is
equally good half portions nearly or
quite as large as the single portions of
other places are served for one per
son There was a little dispute at a
well known hotel over a mistake in an
order of trout and chicken that made
a difference of several dollars on a
cheek for a rather simple dinner for
two It was settled out of court as
it were and quite agreeably but hotel
managers regret and try to avoid these
mistakes especially when the customer
is a regular visitor for they know he
never forgets the details of bis eating
and is slow to forgive an error
Another peculiarity of diners is as to
the location of tables Some persons
cling to one table and feel aggrieved
when they find another in their favor
ite seat Restaurant proprietors have
tried to understand this peculiarity of
their patrons but have to admit they
fail to explain it St Louis Republic
Why Naval Uniforms Are Blue
Naval uniforms all the world over
pretty well are navy blue The Brit
ish fashion in this matter has been the
rule with maritime people in general
That blue was ever selected for the
kings naval service was a fortuitous
happening When in 1747 the ques
tion of uniform was being considered
the color selected bad very like to
have been French gray laced with sil
ver While the king was still not
quite decided he saw the Duchess of
Bedford in a riding habit of blue
faced with white and enlivened with
gold lace It was a revelation Here
the king declared was the uniform for
his sea service officers and no more
was beard of French gray The navy
took to blue and every other navy has
taken to it since Pall Mall Gazette
A Reasonable Translation
The teacher was telling the class in
fourth grade geography about the great
seals of the different states using the
pictures in the dictionary as the basis
of the lesson Pointing to the seal of
Virginia she asked
Now who can tell me from this
picture what should be the meaning
of these Latin words Sic semper
tyrannis
