Contractor Beeman, while we have
been necessarily delayed on account
Of the failure of the railroads to

SHAVING ON TRAINS.

The Operation Not Near So Danger.
Gus az Most People imagine.
There was q hurrah when some %

Of shave whenever necessary and

than let q barber on the same train
lean over me with sharp razor and
perform the operation.

one holds the razor in ones own

But suppose the barber is leanina

him against the chair. What chance
