en GUILLOTINE, n. A machine which makes a Frenchman shrug his shoulders with good reason. In his great work on _Divergent Lines of Racial Evolution_, the learned Professor Brayfugle argues from the prevalence of this gesture
--the shrug --among Frenchmen, that they are descended from turtles and it is simply a survival of the habit of retracing the head inside the shell. It is with reluctance that I differ with so eminent an authority, but in my judgment (as more elaborately set forth and enforced in my work entitled _Hereditary Emotions_ --lib. II, c.

I have not a doubt that it is directly referable to the terror inspired by the guillotine during the period of that instrument's activity.

  Pat Schroeder

en He cut hair at the jail for nothing and he cut hair at the orphan's home (Guardian Angel Home in Crest Hill). If he was at home and someone called and wanted a haircut, he'd say, 'Come on over.' If someone couldn't get out, Charlie would go to their home and cut his hair.
