She had bought some shampoo soap and meant to wash it now; she had considered putting a bottle of peroxide into the rinsing water. " Well?" she implied silently. "That darn bank!" he quavered. "They've had my account for over ten years ten years. Well, it seems they've got some autocratic rule that you have to keep over five hundred dollars there or they won't carry you.
Why not go inside for a shampoo? She turned to her companions. "I suppose it is perfectly proper under the circumstances to go inside somehow. I'll apply for a shampoo!" "But the rest of us?" wailed the curious Velma. "Ask for something else," suggested the resourceful Jane. "Perhaps she won't answer the ring," parried Janet.
Then perhaps we'll get an answer here." The ruse worked beautifully, for hardly had the tread of feet eight of them, four pairs passed down the steps than in answer to a very lady-like ring of Jane's a colored maid drew open the door. "May I get a shampoo?" asked Jane sweetly, stepping inside as she spoke and covertly motioning Dozia to follow.
Kidd and Brown's politeness easily gave way before their astonishment. "Well, I may as well have a 'air-cut while I'm here," said Mr. Gibbs, after a lengthy survey. "And a shampoo, sir?" said the assistant. "Just as you like," said Mr. Gibbs, turning a deaf ear to the frenzied expostulations of his financial backers. "Wot is it?"
This dark assertion will be illuminated later on. Jim drew a package from his overcoat pocket and threw it upon the table. "Don't make any mistake, Dell," he said, "about me. I don't think there's anything in the way of a haircut or a shave or a shampoo that could make me like my girl any less. But if you'll unwrap that package you may see why you had me going a while at first."
I got so tired and run-down I hadn't planned to take any vacation at all, but the boss himself says to me, 'Eddie, we can't afford to let you get sick; you're the best man we've got, he says, 'and you got to take a good vacation now and forget all about business for a couple weeks. 'Well, I says, 'I was just wondering if you was smart enough to get along without me if I was to sneak out and rubber at some scenery and maybe get up a flirtation with a pretty summer girl' and I guess that must be you, Miss Golden! and he laughs and says, 'Oh yes, I guess the business wouldn't go bust for a few days, and so I goes down and gets a shave and a hair-cut and a singe and a shampoo there ain't as much to cut as there used to be, though ha, ha! and here I am."
One corner of the shop is partitioned off and bears the sign: HOT AND COLD BATHS, 50 CENTS. There has been no bath inside the partition for twenty years only old newspapers and a mop. Still, it lends distinction somehow, just as do the faded cardboard signs that hang against the mirror with the legends: TURKISH SHAMPOO, 75 CENTS, and ROMAN MASSAGE, $1.00.
"But which way are we going? I must go to Truefitt's to have my hair cut." "You haven't forgotten the old place, I see. Do you still keep up your subscription?" "I suppose mine has run out, I have been abroad so long. Nothing like a good shampoo; for a guinea a year you can have it done as often as you like." "I haven't subscribed lately. There used to be such a pretty girl at the counter.
Hamilton's garden drying their hair after a shampoo. To the surprise of every one the spring had made good its early promises, and buds and blossoms had hurried forth with quivering eagerness. The soft breeze which rustled the leaves and played caressingly with the floating locks was as mild as in summer, and the girls felt that pleasant languor which comes with the first warm days.
Having learned all this, one day when it was very hot, and the old Rakshas was drowsy, Ramchundra begged leave to shampoo her head, which speedily sent her to sleep; then, gently pulling out two or three of her hairs, he got up, and taking in one hand her wand, and in the other two jars of the magic water, he stealthily left the hut; but he had not gone far before she woke up, and instantly divining what he had done, pursued him with great rapidity.
