who shaves himself.
Better let me get it for you," sug-
gested the reformed barber, who, now
that he Is a trolley car conductor,
regards himself as a distinguished
member of societ''. "All cutlery stores
are filled with razors of the class
known as dead Ones When barber
buys razor, he takes it with the un-
derstanding that he is to try it out, and
II it doesn't work we'll he takes it back
and gets another one, keeping this up
until he gets one that suits him. Buy
ing razor, you know, is lottery in
which the prizes are few and far be-
tween. When the ordinary citizen goes
to a cutlery store, he picks out what he
thinks is a good razor, pays for it and
takes his chances. He picks one out.
too. from the bunch of dead ones that
BARRIERS have tried and found wanting.

it for you. Then If you don't like 1t

modest to be popular delusion. On
the contrary, he alleges egotism to be
the very essence Of true genius and
quotes many amusing examples.

Coleridge remarked that the day was

The WO0Isack.

Back during the time Of Queen Eliza
beth an act Of parliament was passed
prohibiting the expectation of wool.
This product was one of the great
sources Of the natural wealth of Eng
land at that time, and in accordance
with the economic notions Of the age
the authorities attempted to keep it in
the country, imagining that If it went
abroad, even though something more
valuable or desirable We're exchanged
for 1t, the country would be the poorer.
In order to hold the Importance Of
this commodity before the minds Of the
national legislators woolsacks were
placed in the house Of lords, where the
judges sat. Hence the lord chancellor,
who presides over the house of lords,
''sits on the woolsack." The woolsack,
according to printed description, is a
"large square bag Of wool without
back or arms and covered with rcd
CLOTH"
