again. But before deserving shop he
would try every barber in it. If he found
one that suited him perfectly he would let
none other shave him.
A man who is received with profound
reverence in barber shops is Judge Devens.
He gets his hair trimmed frequently, and
while he does not refrain from an observa-
ton once in while, his potential fignre
precludes tonsorial familiarity.
Judge Putnam used to he very exacting,
but made up in POPULARITY what he de-
manded. The man who for the first time
cut his hair and shaved his face got few
pointers never to be aforementioned
Judge Churchill used to get his beard
trimmed and his upper lip shaved at one
time His beard was reputed hard, and
the BARRIERS kept special razor for it.
81 used to shave man named Davidson
who was a puzzle" said one who has now
retired from tonsorial pursuits. He would
get shaved tonight, say at 5-hardly ever
later than that. Tomorrow he would be
around again at in the morning. His
beard was as hard as nails, and although
you thought tonight that you had settled
it for at least forty-eight hours, it would
be on hand in the morning as strong as
ever"
Hon. Patrick Mcguire is an easy man to
shave, and, as he is always pleasant, and
deSpises fixings the BARRIERS like him. He
is very witty gentleman, too, and, al
though not very talkative, he now and then
has an anecdote that pleases the most seri-
Gus.
GOLD HUTCH" OF CHICAGO
Wheat fame, has undoubtedly been Shaved
in Boston, and when in Lynn he shaved
himself But as shaver of other people
Hutch has been a tremendous success
1t is said that the day he made 100000
on wheat he entered Chicago barber shop
and asked for shave This was few
hours before he made the 100000 Be
fore the barber administered the lather,
:: Hutch " asked what the tax would be-
The barber replied that the price was 10
cents. Hutch said i cents was too
much, but that he would give 10 cents
The barber refused to be knocked down,
so Hutch went across the street and got
shaved for dime. Thus encouraged, he
went abroad in the market-place and
shaved wheat until he made 100000
lie is the king of financial razors.
| John l.. Sullivan never SLAVES himself.
! The eminent boxer-editor gets shaved at
| Hogarty'S, on Dover street. John has
more respect for Hogarty when the genial
proprietor fathers him than for any living
being. Hogarty understands John thor
, onghly, and John understands Hogarty
/ equally as we'll. John likes close shave,
and there are many who think that John
himself could give his most formidable an
tagonist little more than 4 close shave.
Sullivan likes the usual fixings that 90
with custom made haircut and shave
He wants his hair combed very tastefullv,
and likes to have 1t laid down in front.
! His mustache must be curled and cosmet-
lied carefully, and he admits that the ex-
hiIaration produced 10y the application of
bay rum is very acceptable. Sullivan is as
| generous in barber shop as he is else
where, and many BARRIERS throughout the
country will tell you about his magnii-
cent ''perqs."
MICHAEL j. KELLY,
| Baseballist and actor, filings himself into a
chair with the perfect abandon that char
acterizes his slides from first bag to sec
ond. He likes to chat, and barring when
! the razor or brush prevents, he keeps up
an incessant flow of humorous remarks on
music, painting, sculpture, poetry and the
turf He is one of the generous givers,
and requires that he shall come from the
! BARRIERS as fresh as daisy. Kelly always
call for special brand of French soap,
and insists that the razor shall be sharp
/ enough to cut hair on the wing. 1t is
said that Kelly got shaved once in Chi
cago in three minutes, when he was in a
hurry. Whenever the "only" drops fly
| he is said to remark that the ball had
whiskers on it, and only needed shave to
enable him to catch it. Mike once re-
marked that he could catch a train more
easily than he could bali with whisk-
ers on it.
There is working in a barber-shop on
! Washington street man who has shaved
| Public Be DID, Vanderbilt, and didn't
get any more for it than for shaving man
who never said harsh word about the
public. Mr.. Vanderbilt, however, was a
very kind man, and always put on his own
overcoat, and used the clothes brush him
self. Some men are very particular to sig
| nifty demand for assistance when putting
on their overcoat. Very few require their
| hats to be put on for them. First-class
| BARRIERS keep an assistant to help custom
ers on with their coats. This is often a
necessary precaution to prevent customers
from helping themselves to other peoples
| coats.
Lieutenant Governor Bracket gets
shaved in town frequently. A barber who
| shaved him years ago says that J. Q. A.
was one Of the most genial men that ever
| reposed in chair. The same barber de-
clares that he can tell whether man will
succeed in politics by witnessing the emo
tions of said man in a barber chair. He
i thinks Brackets star is still in the ascend
ant.
There is no barber in town who shaved
Napoleon Bonaparte but there is one in
New York who claims to have shaved
Napoleon III.
