FACTS /!

The time is past when the mere fact that
serviceable piece OF goods is ..made up strong"
into suit satisfies the wearer. The ad-
ditional fact that the garment "sets smoothly"
fails to suit those who have good Judgment in
dress. Those who understand how to dress
we'll, know that effect in a garment so diff
cult to define, called style, is what is REQUIRED
to give the finishing touch and make the per
feet garment. This is brought about BY the
skill of the cutter and the workmen who
make the garment. This skill of the cutter
Is something that can not be brought GU, by
any mere forms of draughting or system of
measuring, but is high art itself, and means
to the possessor of it-a large salary.
The wearer of ready-made clothing, as a
rule, realizes that his neighbor, who goes TO
nrst-class tailor and pays liberal price for
his suit, has better-ftting and more comfort
soie garments than his, but consoles himself
with the thought that his cost less, and con.

The Richmond Bee says While visiting
his cousin, Mrs. L. b Smith of this lage,
Samuel Foss, young man belonging in Au-
gusta, had rather disagreesble experience.
FOss, it appears, wore an overcoat of a some
what peculiar figure, also spring necktie of
the latest approved pattern. unfortunately
for him certain man in Lewiston had been
robbed of lot of clothing by a fellow SINH
Iarly dressed, aud had furnished the Rich
mond officers with description of the thief
The description was deemed sufficient to
warrant the officers in apprehendng Foss,
and the latter was arrested last Friday morn
ing on the steamboat wharf, by officer
knights. The Young fellow, who was only
seventeen years old, asserted his innocence,
but in spite of his protestations backed by
the testimony of several relatives, he WAS
taken to the lock up and the Lewiston man
was summoned in hot haste to identify the
prisoner. The arrival of the complainant re-
suited in the instant discharge of Foss, who,
1t Is needless to remark. was in no wise con-
nected with the robbery. The whole affair
vas an unfortunate blunder, and as such is
doubtless regretted by all parties concerned.
