He Belongs in the Midway.

It is not alone in America that barDers show extraordinary persistence and ingenuity in pressing their wares upon customers. An American who has been traveling in France relates that in Paris the barber who was shaving him stepped two or three times upon the side of his foot. At last the customer called out* “Please don’t.do that any more! I have a corn.” “Exactly what I was trying to find out, monsieur,” said the barber, blandly. “We have an excellent preparation for removing corns, for sale at one franc per bottle!”—Chicago Post.
