City Shaving Parlor, a conspiuious stand
next door to city Post. Office.
Our plan of shaving is so complete
that we can prevent infection or inocu
lation by squalled noxious or poi Union,
.greius. " '1 liese troubles are oftimes con
tracted from cne to thO other by Reason
of using the same razor or brush on every
body. Now how we prevent such troub
les we have a sterilizer. a iiiokle plated
concern iu which we always keep hot
boiling boi.i.,g water. We put a certhin
qiianity of Autiseptiola, then every bar
ker after shaving each customer place-
his razor over the Sterilizer into the
b i ing water, letting it remain for a few
minutes. After shaving we use a por
tion of that Autiseptiola on each custo
mer's face. By tins method we can as
sure you a safe shave.
Cali and see us and we will convince
you that unr service is the best in the
