delighted with the smoothness with
which the machine worked and made
a vow that he would get a safety.
and shave himself forever afterward.
He carefully scraped all that portion

to work with Incredible smoothness,

washing his face he was surprised to-
note that his growth of beard still re.

razor showed him that he had forgot-l

action was explained and the Willard
