No Place for Strangers.

J. Edward Addlcks was condemning a certain politician. “The man has no experience,” ha said, “and he has not sense enough to conceal his lack of experience. He reminds me of an incident that took place in a? barber shop the other day: “In this quiet, busy shop a man who was getting shaved suddenly uttered a loud oath. “Hang you!” he exclaimed, “You’ve cut my chin twice now. If you can’t shave better than this, every regular customer will leave you.” “But the young barber pushed the man’s head back on the velvet rest, and laughed. 'Oh, no,’ he said. 'No fear of that I’m not allowed to shave regular customers yet. I only shave strangers.’ ”
