Nobody Paid Her Fare.

A young woman got aboard a West
Broad street car and discovered, to her
humiliation. that her fare was missing
when the conductor called. In a gruff
manner the custodian OF the car said
he'd have get the fare at once or the
woman would have to walk. This dec
laration added to her embarrassment.
The car was crowded. On her right sat
a genial Irishman and on her left a
well known bookkeeper The book
keeper and Irishman exchanged sever
al meaning glances. The conductor was
about to pull the bell rope. The book
keeper said he'd pay the fare as the
young woman looked perfectly honest.
The conductor repeated that he'd put
the woman off. This aroused the Irish
man, who said, "If you put the woman
off, your funeraPll be tomorrow" See
ing slight nervousness on the part of
the conductor, he continued:
How many people on this car want
to attend the funeral of this conduct
orr" Several answered in the affirma-
tive. The conductor grew excited and

Eyes, had to let him CO." replied the
boss barber to the regular customer
when the latter asked an explanation
of the absence of his pet barber.
"Why?"
"Well, he insisted on raising whisk-
ers."
Raising whiskers? Great Scott
Isn't this a free country, where man
may raise whiskers IL he SO chooses"
Eyes, this is a free country, and
man can do pretty much as he likes,
but there's one thing he can't do and
work for me. and that's It,"
"Why do you objectY
"For three reasons. The first is that
he was a rather cross looking fellow
anyway. Whlskers would make him
look crosser. In the second place, to
raise whiskers 1t would be necessary
for him to look like a Weary Willie
for two or three weeks. In the third
place-and this Is reason enough, even
Il there were no other-if he should
succeed In raising a good looking
beard he would set an example that
might be followed by some customers.
The result would be that instead of
getting shaved three or four times a
week. or even every day, they would
content themselves with getting their
whlskers trimmed once fortnight or
once q week. Such a move would seri-
ously affect the cash box and for that
reason Is not to be tolerated.

wearing boards? Every barber realizes
the force of my objection. Oh, yes,
