THE TOWN COMIC.
In the barber shop this morning
there was a man in the next chair and
he was one OF those funny cusses
who is always telling funny stories
| loud and that is that he thinks he is
doing it.
He laid back in the chair and he
| kidded the young lady that does funny
| didos on your finger nails and he
kidded the young lad that puts the
shine on your shoes and he kidded the
| barber and he told stories and cut up
some kittenish with every one that
came in:
OF course every one laughed
whether they felt like it or not and
this encouraged the man and he waxed i
'funnier" all the time until he started
in to tell stories and I thought he was
delivering a lecture or something as
exciting and finally he reached the
stage where he was getting obnoxious
and the man working on him hurried
him thru;
And he got out of the chair and
went out the door but he kidded and |
said something funny" to the boss
who took his money and after he had
gone every one gave a sigh of relief |
and said ''dern foor' and nut and |
the young lady that glistens up the |
finger nails said. He thinks he is
cute,' and 1 said damn fool" and the |
man when he reached the street |
laughed to himself what a comical |
cuss he was and how he was regarded |
as a wit and he was happy and so |
were the folks in the barber shop that |
he was gone so it all worked out in |
nice shape, and I guess that will be
about all. y. S. A.
