That He Was.

The proprietor of a wild beast show
travelling the eastern counties of Eng
land recently made an offer of silver
medal to any local batter with sufii-
cient courage to shave the tanner in
the lioH's den.
A knight of the razor, yearning for
fame and glory. accepted the chal-
lenge and amid a chorus of cheers
from the crowd entered the cage.
Although the lion betrayed very lit
tie interest in the proceedings the
barber was obviously nervous. and,
having lathered his man, made several
nervous dabs at one cheek with the
razor, keeping a weather eye on the
wild beast.
Hold hardl" yelled the tanner at
last, as he felt a fearful cash. IT'S
too riskyI
I'll amt afraid" stammered
the shaking tonsorial artist "There
