TAILORING AS A FINE ART.

He who would become competent to die
tate to others the style i'm painting, draw
ing, architecture or the many other forms
OF art, must himself first study the ideas
of others and perfect by comparison his
own to such an extent that his compeers
mus. acknowledge his superiority. When
he has won the Appreciation OF the public
his position is secure, for the good reason
that sober public opinion is the most fiat
tering and most enduring of all judgements.
Why should not tailor whose style of
finish of garments is truly artistic, be ac-
corded the same praise and patronage as a
painter, whose paintings arein demand be-
cause the scenes which he depicts are SO
artistically proportioned to his canvass
To copy on canvass or in sculpture the
human form is considered the most diff
cult of all artistic productions. To prop
erly clothe 1t, then, must be no easy task,
for measurement, appropriateness of style
and color, depends entirely upon the one
who clothes. When an establishment
such as that of August Rasch & Co.. of
Detroit, has gained the reputation through
out the entire country for their excellence
in matters of DRESS 1t may be easily under
stood that they are tailoring artists of no
common order.
On their counters are displayed many of
the most elegant fabrics ever made for
wearing apparel. The looms of France,
England, Scotland and Continental Eu-
rope have contributed their finest produc-
tions. while domestics are shown in end
less profusion. Prices are adjusted ac-
cerdng to the quality of the goods desired.
aud in all cases perfect fit is guaranteed.
| Though so-called tailoring artists may
boast low prices, the finn of August Rasch
& Co.. will supply gentlemen with gar
ments as reasonably as any house in the
city, while the artistic character may be
] depended upon.

"No man in Michigan, with a spark
of reputation for truthfullness, was

Samuel Dickie. He claimed that
his Jackson speech was unsupported
by the Detroit Evening Journal, and
now he is confronted by Reporter
Stokes. and several prominent mem
bers of the Union party, who make
affidavit that he did charge Governor
Jerome with insincerity, and that the
Republican candidate for governor
had publicly said that he could not
and would not endorse the Kalama,
zoo plank The Journal very truth
fully says Prof. Dickie dug his grave
with his own hands, and the wise
thing for him to do now is to crawl
