understand the business of posing SO as
to bring out the points of face to per-
lection. You might have a crayon
portrait made. They make speciality
of that"
| The next conner was prosperous-look-
ing business man who had evidently
been neglecting to buy himself new
suit of clothes for some time.
les, know all about you," said the
phonograh. "You have been too busy
to attend to your needs in the way OF
fresh clothing. Now l will tell you
Just the place for you to go.
Mullen, Bluett & Co., at the
northwest corner of Spring and First
streets have splendid stock, one of the
finest to be found anywhere in the state.
1t is thoroughly reliable concern patro-
nized by the people who like to be sure
OF what they are getting. BY the way,
II you have any boys, now is the time to
lay in some clothes for them, for special
sale OF childrens clothing is going on. A
discount of 20 per cent is made on an
overstock OF SUITS
AS the next man came up and stopped
down to reach for the tube his eye
glasses fell off He muttered word or
two to himself as he replaced them on his
nose
''The matter is they don't fit" said
the phonograph, without waiting to be
prompted. THAT is one reason why
out of the corner of the glasses instead
of looking right through their center.
Now you 60 to the Pacific Optical Insti-
tute, at IS South Spring street, just over
the way. S. G.. Marshutz, the manager,
is scientific optician. He makes a
speciality of spectacles and eyeglasses,
and makes them fit. He also has a
large stock of artificial eyes if you should
ever happen to want one, and a full
stock OF thermometers, field and marine
glasses, microscopes, etc.
i've purchased lot or two here
recently" said portly-looking gentle
man to the phonograph. "and 1 think
you can tell me what to do with them"
Right, you are" answered the
phone. "You don't want to put them
on the market for sale, but you want to
build nice, substantial structures that
will keep full of tenants the year round.
R. B. Young, the architect, whose rooms
are across the street, Nos. Al, As and
40, new Wilson block, is the man who
will draw up your plans in the
best manner. He has built an immense
number of the best buildings here, and
they all speak for themselves. II you
don't believe what l say, Just go and
look at the work being done on the Ham
mel & Denker building, on the corner OF
Spring and Third, under his direction.
You can't make a mistake if you go to
him."
Excuse me for a moment" whis-
pered a well-dressed gentleman,
"but could you direct me to a bank
where can not only make deposits, but
store some valuable papers don't like
to carry in my pocket?"
Certainly, sir; that's what am here
for.' replied the accommodating phono-
graph, Gust step down the street few
doors to the City Bank, No. 81 South
Spring street. You never saw in all
your travels better fire and burglar proof
safes than the City Bank has. You can
rent box there at reasonable rate.
and you can also make any kind of a
banking arrangement. The capital of
this bank is so secure and its banking
so solid that the funds of the city are
deposited there. Ii every city in the
union had as solid an institution as the
City Bank, it would be good thing for
merchants generally. The men at its
head are thorough business men, and
I'd advise you to go there this afternoon
before banking hours are over and make
your arrangements"
Just then it was discovered that it was
time for change of rolls, and the crowd
ofquestiOners still waiting to get chance
were told to come back another day.
