clothing. etc, TO br made to measure, requir-
ing an advance deposit on the pric. of the
articles, and promising to fill the order In
given time. OF course the deposit money is

there is very little made by the retail buyer
sending orders away from home, especially
through the drummer who wants an advance
on the purchase monry.-Jfadisonian.
