For long time we have noticed gradual in
crease in the number of good-looking men in our
neghborhood, especially among our subscribers.
The change has been so marked as to be subject
for general conversation. People ask "Why is
this thus z" We find the general answer TO be.
that almost all our fellowcitizcns are wearing the
celebrated " Rockhill Il Wilson clothes. 1t is
well known that the people who wear the clothes
of this make command the esteem of their fellow
creatures. All our readers know where Rockhin
Wilson's is. The mammoth Brown Stone
Clothing Hall, COS and COS Chestnut ST. Phila.
1t is pleasure to tell the same story over and
over again, if it is a good story. Our story now
is Of the satisfaction we enjoy in wearing the
clothes which they make at the great Brown
Hall, Philadelphia The fact is, there are no 9TH
er clothes, made elsewhere that look half as WELL
or wear half as long as the Rockhil Wilson
clothes. The immense and varied assortment OF
fine clothes for Fall which Rockhll & Wilson
now display is worthy the attention of all who
go TO the city. See their advertisement in an
| other column.
