FRANTIC SEARCH FOR WOOD
superstitlous Customer In Modern

Find the object Desired.

We'll. how's the neuralgia?" queried
the barber, sympathetically, as he
poised the razor over Thompson's 3
iathered face in a tonsorial emporium.

then the barber was dumfounded to
see his customer rap hard on the arm
OF the chair. He was further aston

to the floor and ran to the marble
wash bowl, where another custoner
was in process Of being shampooed.
Thompson reached under the stool

dismay he turned wildly and made a
sprint to the cigar counter at the ia.
end Of the room. There he raped his
lnuckles on the wooden frame, while
BARRIERS and customers, in various
stages of barbering and hair cutting.

You surely don't have much wood
IN these places" he observed as the
barber somewhat gingerly began the
shaving operation anew. "This chair
is made of enamel. glass, nickel and
leather. that stool seat Is made OF
some kind Of leatherette composition,
and do believe the only thing in
your shop made Of wood Is that cigar
counter frame"
Then Thompson's barber and the
other BARRIERS vent on shaving.
