SHAVING MILLIONAIRE.


Let any rt1ah become immensely wealthy
by his own exertons, and straightway you
shall hear numerous anecdotes illustrating q
the meansby which he attained his riches,
the effect they have upon him, his disposi-
tion of them, or his syings, peculiarities
and eccentricities' 4~.,.,,,,s
Astor, Girard and Billy Gray have futn-
aished illustrations for many clever sketch,
er. We heard few clever anecdotes the
other day of Billy Gibbons, New Jersy
millionaire, one Of which we will give our
readers.
1t seems that Billy, while in country
village in which he owned some property,
stepped into BARRIERS shop to get: t:shaved;
The shop was full Of custctIi .rs, and the
old gentleman quietly waited for his turn.
A customer who was under the barbcr's
hands when the old man came in, asked
the knight Of the razor itf'an tinder tone,
if he knew who that was, and on receiving
a negative reply, he informed him, in a
whisper, it was old Billy Gibbons, the rich
est man in the State
'Gad,' said the barber, I'll charge him
for his shave
Accordingly alter the old man had that
operation performed, hc was somewhat sur.
prised, upon asking the price, 10 be told
seventy five ceuts.'
'seYeutySfive cents rsaid he quietly, ISN'T
that rather high price7'
It's my price, said he of the lather-
brush independently, 'and as This is the on.
Iy barber's' shop in the place, them as come,
into it must pay whats1 ask
!. To the oldman tLis was. evidently a
knockdown argument, for eIe drew three
quarters Of. a dollar from, his pocket, paid
them oserto the .barber, and left the shop
