Thanked: 6From Barbers instruction manual 1900
Don't kniow if anyone has posted this before.
BAZORS.
The barber shaves with a polished blade,
While the milliner shaves when ladies trade:
The banker shaves at ten per cent;
While the landlord shaves in raising rent,
The doctor shaves in draughts and pills,
While the druggist shaves in pints and gills ;
The politician shaves the nation.
The preacher shaves for all salvation ;
The broker shaves in cashing notes ;
While the farmer shaves in corn and oats;
The lawyer shaves both friends and foes.
The pedler shaves where e'er he goes,
The wily merchant shaves his brother,
In fact you all shave one another.
Lick to full manual here.Last edited by RedBranch; 07-07-2012 at 03:09 PM.
