BARBERING A SIDE LINE.
Many in the Trade Now Collectors for
 Insurance Companies.

'- The boss barber smiIingly welcomed customer who unexpectedly came in in the midst of the Saturday evening rush
 Take that man there" he said. pointing to the next to the last chair. Hes fine Tell you about him later
 As he paid for his shave the GUS .tomer asked what there was remark able about the man holding down lie next to the last chair.
 Tt was a good shave" lie said: "a crackajack. But you had sometEipg to tell me?''
 Yes said the boss barber, "I sure did. I think you'll like to know. That mans just a helper. I have nim every Saturday night ana Sunday morning I'd like to get him all the time. Hell only work at the end of the week though. He's an eX- barber. not res ular. His real business is insurance collecting
 You'd be surprise to know the number of barbers who have become collectors for the big insurance com panies. l can't tell you why. but it's a fact. It's one of the curiosities of the barber trade today
 Not all of them. but a good many like this man. make up their minds to add little to their incomes in the old way and take hand in a shop after their works over on Saturday after noon. There's always a demand for helpers. A man can get $5 for the evening and Sunday morning. to say nothing of his tips, which in shop like this will bring him g. to $S extra Good x-barbers have regular engage ments for the end of each week.
 Some Of these insurance collectors do even better with their side line bar bering. There's a good many shops in fairly good residential sections where nearly all the work comes in the even ing. The boss and one assistant can handle the business through the day but for an hour or two in the evening there's enough steady work for three or four men and it hurts the shops trade to keep any one waiting long

Five Points Man Gives Buggy for Crippled Horse, Then Shoots
 Animal.

There are horse. trades and horse trades. This is a story of a horse and buggy trade Sight unseen. too, if you please. The horse was-but what's the use of making an apology. Here's the story:
 Frank WiIds, despite the fact that one of his legs is made of hickory can ride pony about as well as the aver age plainsman. When he rode into the O. K. corral day or two ago his mount attracted favorable notice from more than one Five Points horseman. His pony was wiry and built for rid ing The animal was well groomed and seemed to have been living off the fat of the land. He was steed to be coveted.
 Nov, Wilds has friend up at Five Points always looking for something good in the way of horseflesh and al- ways has something in the way of money or other valuable consideration to exchange for a horse of his fancy. And that Is how he came to ask Wilds about exchanging his pony for dandy second hand buggy. Wilds couldn't see it that way. What would he do with a buggy any way if he didn't have a horse and besides he would not give that horse for all the second hand buggies in Arizona.
 That night Wilds placed his horse In the O. K corral and went to sleep to dream of the time when he would have a whole 160 acre ranch run over with just such steeds. It vas a pleasant dream and when Wilds awoke in the morning his first thought was of his pet He went immediately to the cor ral and then learned that during the night another horse had broken loose and had kicked his horse so badly as to break le" of the Wilds horse.
 Wish I'd have traded him now. unused Wilds and then a thOuhgt struck him Wonder if my friend is in the same frame of mind today as he was yesterday. Believe I'll go over and see him
 Why yes, sure I'll trade said his friend T like that horse and have more buggies than I can use"
 You'll take him just as he is?' ask cd Wilds who had neglected to men, ton such a trifling detail as the brok- en leg of the horse.
 You bet I will was the reply "Yank that buggy over where you want 1t and I'll come over and get my horse"
 The rest of the story must he imag- ined. It might look good in d moving picture but never in newspaper that caters to the home and the firesidc But it might he said that the new owner Of the crippled horse took his medicine. saw to it that the animal was shot and then hurried back to his place of business to think it over.

PHOENIX PROOF.

Joseph Coulson, AS w Washington Street, Phoenix, Ariz.. says: For some time I was about laid up with my back and there was a dull, nag ging pain across my loins and kid neys which bothered me almost con- stantly. About two years ago I had q fall which injured my back and l was unconscious for many hours. This was the beginning of my trouble and knew that my kidneys were affected. The use of three boxes of Doan's Kid ney Pills, procured at the Adams Pharmacy, brought me prompt relief and I have had no trouble to speak of since. I am a strong advocate of the use of Doan's Kidney Pills"

THE CITYHALL SITE

The Press does give detailed advice point
possible sites for the city hall to those actively
engaged in choosing the SITE
The council is supposed to be acting for the best inter-
ess of their constituents peopein selecting SITE
The citizens committee is largely composed Of repre-
sentatves of big realty interests and prominent business
interests in general 1t is than human that they
should think of their personal interests in speaking for
this or that possible SITE but at the time they
undoubtedly thinking of what would be for the best inter-
ests of the city in the future.
But The Press DOES desire to give voice to certain
tmen by the great body of ctzenhe SO out
of every 100 who not in position and who have not
the time give aid in the solution of the city hall site
problem Here is what The Press believes these citizens
think and want
They want the new city hall to be located as
the center of population possible.
They want the site purchased cheaply posi-
ble but they would rather have the city pay little
more NOW for property which would be cheaper in
every practical way IN THE LONG RUN
They DO NOT want the city hall located at one end
of the city. This is of the chief faults about the
public library 1t is not only located in inconvenient
place for great ority of people, but is also not
placed in the most densely settled part of the city
They do not want any special private interest to
rule in the selection of the SITE
These the main things the people are thinking about
Both the council and the citizens committee know It, 1t
is hoped that in this very important matter really GEN.
trail location will be chosen for the benefit Of this and sue
ceeding generations.

Strive masterfully every hour.
Neptune is In ecliptc con-
Junction with the moon and
Mercury. Mars and Jupiter
occupy favoring places.
Mars this day inspires great
energies both in the elements
and in men. They who labor
with the forces of fire and wa

Persons naturally command
and autocratic may be led too
far by the impulses of the
hour, and should exercise calm
judgment before they over
ride others, or plunge into ven
lures.
Optimistic persons will not
be able, as a rule, under these
fiery tendencies, to use cool,
clear judgment about matters
that contain speculative eIe-
ments, and should postpone
important decisions in such
matters if they possibly can.
Mercury favors business
greatly, and especially all
transactions that involve sales

Writing and printing are un-

Travelling whether for health,
pleasure or business, should be
successful.
The time is marked by as

Of business, or making changes
in location.
There is the same bright
omen for new undertakings,

and inspired with new life.
Courtships, engagements and

There is sinister warning,
however, against mercenary

Artisans, all workers with

There is favor also for per-

Physicians, surgeons, -ocu

under good signs.
In the household the sign is
good for baking and for any
thing connected with fowl.
Persons with this birth
