THE BARBER. And then Muscatine—for a few months—and Chicago— and Louisville.
THE CUSTOMER. Why, one would think you had been following me about! I've lived in every one of those places.

THE CUSTOMER. (Smiling) Well, this is the first time you ever shaved me.
THE BARBER. Curious, isn't it? But it may be the last.
THE CUSTOMER. That's so. I'm going to leave town right after the auction.
