ANNOUNCEMENT I wish to announce to my many friends and cus tomers that I am again owner of the Star Pressing Shop, having purchased the entire interests of Mr. A. W. Kelley. Having assumed control of my old business again I wish to say that the former policy of “satisfaction guaranteed or no pay” will be rigidly maintained. Every garment handled by this shop is given sani tary treatment in all the processes of cleaning, press ing or dying. Experienced men handle each garment so that no damage can possibly result through the cleaning process after which it goes through the best, most up-to-date pressing machine on the market. The Hoff-man Machine Method is sanistarv in every way and there is no possible chance to scorch or injure the fabric with fire, nothing but steam being used on the garment. This machine also gives the cloth a genuine renovating, through and through, thereby removing all germs or dust which has accum ulated in the weave. If our past service has been satisfactory, we ask you again for your cleaning, pressing and dyeing. Don’t be afraid to send us your fine garments; years of experience are back of all work turned out by this shop. Work called for and'delivered promptly. STAR PRESSING SHOP W. A. PORTER, Prop.

We find from investigation that the sal aries paid professional moving pic ture operators are from twenty-five | to thirty-five dollars per week.
