Had to Look the Part.

A perpetually unshaven fellow who runs a news stand near the winter garden was haled into court the other day for some trival charge. He pleaded Ws own case and was dlanissed. The magstrate was interested in his excellent address and his knowledge of the law. He explained that he had been admitted to the bar find was a graduate of a big eastern college. “I could only make SI,OOO a year with my law," he said, “and I make about $12,000 a year selling newspapers. It may surprise you to see how unkempt I am, but it is business psychology. If I dressed in good clothes people would not purchase from me.”—New York Times.
