Punctual Pete prepares the "Shaved in Silence" shop for the day's business. He is as handy as a man with five thumbs. Gertie, almost a soubrette, looking for a job, decides that she is willing to try anything once. Seeing a sign in the barber shop window advertising for a lady barber she beats it home and brushes up on the tonsorial art. Hastening back to the shop, she passes herself off as an experienced lady barber and lands the job. With fifteen minutes' experience she is ready to meet all comers. Pat Rooney, a son of the Emerald Isle, decided to be "duded up." Gertie tackles him and gets the decision. Josh, the farmer, with a beard like a mattress, is the next victim. He also "gets his." A good slogan for this barber shop would be, "All hope abandon ye who enter here." The patrons generally make their exit much quicker than their entrance. Gertie, chancing to get a flash at the bank-roll of a "live one," grabs the roll and beats for a healthier territory.
