Just one year ago. William Kuhn OPP
ened the Imperial Shaving Parlors
with three chairs, 1t was an up-to-
date establishment in every sense OF
the word, and the patronage has in
creased so constantly that two more
chairs have been added, as well as a
cup case with a capacity of 140 mugs.
The latest improvement by the enter
prising manager is bathing parlors I'M
like anything in the State, illuminated
by electric light, and cooled by auto
matte fans, making an institution
which not only merits patronage. but
Of which the city can well feel proud.
