bad Just left the Union army, the
civil war having closed, and I
entered the office of Dr. J. P.
Peck, now deceased. In a few
month wo entered Into a partner
ship which lasted for about ten
years. Afttr Dr. Peck passed away
I bumped along alone. In those
flays the young doctors got all ths
hard work and In most cases no
pay. I generally got mine, however, for I was a pretty good student of
human nature."

SHAVE AKD HAIR CUT FREE

Twelve In the Morelng
Kearly All Jela la. '
Practically all the barber ahops In the
city will be open today from t to 12,
but If one wants only a ahtve he will have
to take something else anyway, that the
barber may get around the city ordinance
by charging him for the other service,
nstrsd of the shave.
Two drops of tonlo on the hair Is all
that Is necessary," said one of the master
barbers. "We can't charge for haircuts
or shaves. Of cuurs. If a man really
wants a hair tonlo or a shampoo ws will
give It to him and charge a price that
will Include the ahave or haircut.
"Hut if a man wants merely a shave,
he will have to stand for a couple ot
drops of tonlo on his hair. That will
cost him 15 cents and he gets Lis shave
free. We have several kinds of tonic,
so he ran probably aelect one that will
please him. And a oouple of drops won't
muss him up very much, anyway."
Practically all the barber shops have
posted signs that they will keep open,
Even Adam Morrell, one of the staunch-
est fighters tor Sunday closing, has put
up the sign. Adam's Bhps were closed
last Sunday, though a number ot shops
were open that had been closed Sundays
since the new ordinance was passed.
