The
Story of the Barber
THE FOLLOWING are intended to soothe restless children, and are so short that they may be given entire.
Once upon a time there was a barber. . . . Be good and I will tell it to you again.
The next is from the same source.
Once upon a time there was a king, a pope, and a dwarf
. . . This king, this pope, and this dwarf. . . .
(Then the story-teller begins again).
