While great elevator was being

remarkable exhibition Of GOODNESS and
presence of mind was given by one Of

A SONG OUT OF SILENCE.
The sweetest song is that
No poet has begun;
The grandest deed, the deed
No hand hath ever done;
The keenest thought, the dream
That cleaves the dying brain;
The widest joy, the sense
Of release from pain.
Oh mad and sweet the song
That | to thee could sing
And high as hope I'd reach
To do the noblest thing.
May Heaven preserve the power
Thou sheuldst have walked In me
VIII Heaven hold the joy
| could have given thee?
Or is the finest fate
That life or death shall know
The rapture Of despair,
The glory of this woe9
To know the dearest words
Unsaid forever be,
Because | may not speak
The least of them to thee.
To know not earth nor heaven,
Nor any crimson star,
Can measure losses such
As ours unmeasured are.
To know we would not quench
With any paler wine
The everlasting thirst
That must be mine and thine.

WE ARE PREPARED
FIT ANY MAN

Not actually deformed, and with the as
sistance of our SPECIAL ARTISTS we
are enabled to make even " RICHARD
THE THIRD" look very attractive.
When gentlemen from London, Paris,
New York, and Boston are surprised at
the custom-like finish, air, and fit of our
regular tailor-made Garments, they GER
tainly must be well-nigh PERFECT.
We cut REGULAR SIZES, as do all
other houses. In addition, we cut FAT
SIZE and q SLIM SIZE, making THREE
DISTINCT SHAPES TO EACH BREAST
MEASURE, from "a to 80 breast. The
fat sizes are low in back of neck, short
skirt, short sleeves, and large in stomach.
Our Sims are long sleeve, high collar, and
extra long. So we can surely fit you, no
matter how irregular your shape. Be
sides, we have large corps of REGULAR
ARTIST TAIL0RS, who perfect the fit
when necessary. 1t is not polite for us,
as our good name (the immediate jewel
of our soul) is worth much more than we
can make, not only off of one, but off of
many customers, and should we falsely
persuade you that q garment fitted, the
first friend you met would point out its
fault, so you can depend on our state
ments. Money always cheerfully re-
funded when asked.
If You intend buying a Blue Suit, DO
NOT DO IT until you have examined
the line we offer. There is one thing
certain, if you buy Blue Suit of us you
| buy one thing that will hold its color.
We don't offer any other kind.
