those of n other calling. On Dunont

Streets. there are not less than ffty
basement apartments devoted TO tonso.
rial operations. At first blusb the won.

lisbmepts are needed lint stand IN any
street in the quarter and glance Mt the
head of each passiny Cbinaman. and

no toilet is considered comnlete which
does not involve n shaving of a greater

scraped over often to preserve the an.
pearance so much desired. and all this.
in a place so populous as the ..ouarter,,

ice of a numerous force. All the
barber sbons of the Chinese have . no
culiar sign Mt the doorway Indicative of
the occupation, 1t is f~our.legoed

ton knobs red. On all the streets in
Chinatown these Sims are seen everv
