Times Are Bad for Steamship BARRIERS

NEW YORK.-Barbers on Atlantic
IN liners are now complaining about
safety razors, which have reduced
their profits to such an extent that
they have been compelled to exc out
living by selling all kinds of no.
lions, from Bibles to chewing gum. In
the palmy days BARRIERS were In
clined to regard with scorn and to
keep waiting the passenger who shaw
ed himself and only came to the shop
for a hair cut. On the White Star
line the daily rush for shaves among
first cabin passengers was recognized
by the company. and one of its rules.
403. section 8, read:
BARRIERS of the White Star steam
ships are not allowed to cut passen-
gers hair before noon"
All morning the BARRIERS were kept
busy. and in the afternoon from 4
o'clock until dinner time, scraping the
chins of passengers who would not
take chance of cutting themselves
with the old-fashioned rabors as the
ship pitched up and down or rolled
from side to side.
Now many passengers shave them
selves. whether 1t is rough or smooth,
and never patronize the BARRIERS shop
unless the ship is over toward her
beam ends. which is the time the bar.
Der doesn't want to shave any one.
Owing to this decline Of business
the steamship companies have had to
reduce the rents charged for the bar
