Mark wet to a barber's shop and had his hair cut, but when he came out, he was not happy with the result, and when his friend George saw him, he laughed and said, 'What's happened to your hair, Mark?'

Mark said, 'I tried a new barber's shop today, because I wasn't at all satisfied with my old one, but this one seems even worse.'

George agreed. 'Yes, I think you're right, Mark. Now I'll tell you what to do next time you go into a barber's shop: look at all the barbers' hair, and then go to the one whose own hair has been cut the worst.'

'The one whose hair's been cut the worst?' Mark repeated. 'But that would be foolish!'

"Oh, no, it wouldn't,' answered George. 'Who do you think cut that man's hair? He couldn't cut it himself, could he? Another of the barbers cut it—and he must have been a worse barber than the one whose hair he cut.'
