In earlier times the barber's trade was dignitfed with the title of profession. “Barber-surgeons” were incorporated as such in France and England, their art being regarded as closely allied with that of surgery. Everybody went to the barber's shop to hear the latest news and gossip, and the barber often provided flutes or violins | to entertain his patrons. He was an institution. The barber of to-day has ground for maintaining the dignity of his occupation, But is he honestly ready to give up his tips? Tipping in barber shops has grown to be one of the accepted impositions prac-| tised upon a timid and docile public. With higher wages and the increased charges to customers which are pretty sure to follow, will the barbers consent to “No Tipping” signs? We wonder what a vote would show? ———_-+ ' NATURE’S RIGHTS.
