There is a place in Phila-
delphia where a stranger
may buy his clothes, and
fare as we'll as if he knew
the whole city By heart; and
if he knows nothing about
the value Of cloths, or Of
clothes, he is as well off, as
if he were a good judge Of
both.
The reason is that every
thing to be found there is
made thcrc-l1lade and sold
under 4 system which rarely
allows mistakes to occur, and
which correcrs them, if they
do occur.
OK HAIL is the place;
and its practice may be
summed up III a few words.
II YOU get there what you
don't want to keep at the
price, you return it, and get
your money back.
This means a great deal
more than appears on the
surface. 1t means that YOU
are not going to get what
you will not want to keep at
the price, if the merchant can
help it. 1t means that the
clothes YOU get there will be
Of honest cloths, honestly
made; and that they will
cost you less than as good
clothes can be got for else
where. 1t means that they
will be every way better
worth your money than you
can get elsewhere for the
same money.
If it means ANYTHING less
than these things-ifitnca
poor cloths, trimmings, cut
ting, sewing, or in any way
dishonest or illiberal dealing;
the return Of his goods will
plague the merchant, injure
his credit, and dissipate his
trade.
If it means these things
if i means liberal and honor
a. dealing, valuable and
truss ,'otAin@, case and

There is only one diff
Guilty left. Somebody has
got to take the risks of the
dealing; for there are risks.
Send your money along
with your order, That
covers tie risk as to your
good faith. We risk every
thing else; the fit, and
your satisfaction every way.
Our trade by mail
amounts to half a million
dollars a year; there's no
reason why it shouldn't
amount to five millions.

bic employment OF reading; to supply
a suitable edition of the HERALD for

faithfully snd honestly represent this

This valuable and popular edition
OF the HERALD will continue 10 make
its appearance twice week during
the year, and the same degree OF
progress and improvement that marks

tains all the news, domestic and for

The remarkable SUCCESS ofthe paper

and steadily growing subscription
let, lis increasing advertising patron
age and the expressions of goodwill
towards the journal which greet US
from al quarters, convinces the pub
fishers that they are doing what they
set out to do-namely, furnish q
newspaper that the people would like,
and therefore support. The HERALD,
as in the past, will be the peoples
paper. Independent in a political
sense, it will always BE found
on the side of the people, outspokeu
on questions affecting the rights of the

laboring for a pure, honest and ecC.

treating public matters dispassion-
ately and employing language cslcu-
