ALedo and Mercer County
AS A PLUMBER
ALEDO BARBER
Is A FAILURE
(special to The Argus.)

AIedo, Dec. 16.-For few min
utes yesterday afternoon Herbert
Davis of Aledo changed his mode
Of making a living as a barber 10
that of a plumber and after a short
time working on one of his water
faucets the tables, in the pool room
which is run in connection with the
barber shop, were floating and the
players had to swim to keep on
with the games.
This condition prevailed only for
a few minutes, as someone in the
shop had the presence of mind 20
open the front door The water
poured into the street and the day
was saved.
In a comparatively short time the
faucet was repaired and outside Of
a complete soaking Mr.. Davis and
several others who assisted as
plumbers were none the worse of
for the venture.
