DETROIT TIME?
Men—come and see the newest thing in Detroit—The
Men’s Service Station—Basement of the Gorman Building.
You know the place—That like-a-wedge-of-pie shaped bldg,
Corner of Lafayette, Michigan and Griswold
Every man in Detroit has wanted such a place.
Get this —and remember it. Absolutely no tips
allowed in this service station. We have knocked that
old, be-whiskered, time-dishonored, tipping trouble for
ever-more.
How did we do it? ? •
Easy. We are running this institution on business
principles. Our men who render you service are “reg
ular fellows”— all of them. They are our own business
partners and share in the profits. They don’t have to
depend on the generosity of their customers.
Here you buy a shave, a haircut or other barber’s
work you ask for, at the same prices as elsewhere. But
you don’t pay an additional tax—-aren’t.chased to take
shampoos, singes, massage, etc., that you don’t order.
You’re your own guardian of your beauty here.
No tips.
Here you don’t have to buy a

What a relief to at last find a place where you
can have all these necessary* services performed right
under the one roof at low prices, and where you will
be made welcome and treated like a gentleman.

Service TlldC
To the first 10,000 men who apply, we will give
coupons entitling them to oc worth in any service
department free. We can’t keep an accurate check on
who gets these coupons. So we ask you to he “good
spoils’’ and not repeat. Ask at the cigar stand.
Come and see us today or tomorrow or as soon as
you can. It’s a great establishment. Ask to be shown
through the various departments. Mr. Mills is the
manager. Meet him. He is well worth knowing. Get
the habit of coming here. Let us get acquainted with
you so we will know how you want things done. It
will be a good thing for you and for us.
