THE PALAIs ROYAL Opening" Of Cotton Under.
wear for 1889 comes after months Of preparation and
aftsr many experiments, to which much anxious
thought has been given.
We shall have on view Monday over s35, 900 worth
OF Cotton Endorsements. 1t 10 fact conceded By
merchants visiting Washington and who seldom leave
wthouta visit to the Palss Royals Cotton Underwear
Department, that we have THE LARGEST AND MOST
VARiED-sTocK OUTSIDE OF NEW YORK
WHY Is IT so,
BECAUSE WE DO THE LARGEST BUSINESS il
first apparent and is the logical conclusion.
BECAUSE WE NEVER HAVE OR WILL KEEP
nerve to advertise the best possible garments at l2<
and at the best-we are striving to serve
you better In higher priced but really cheaper goods.
BECAUSE WE HAVE NO JOB LOTS. Every gar
ment being made to our especial order and under
personal supervision.
REFORM LONG NEEDED.
We need not inform any lady. especially stout lady.
that lack OF skill is but too apparent the shaping and
finish Of ready made cotton underwear rule almost
without exception
The Palas Royal claims special brightness in in
augurating reform long needed. but rather wonders
others have not recognized that the thought
and skill might as proAtably be bestowed on under
garments as on outer-garments.
INTELLIGENCE BROUGHT TO BEAR
WE BUILD ON ASSURE FOUNDATION from the
start We engaged the services Of expert cutter-a
man tailor-who drafted the patterns from which all
our Undergarments were made.
WE ENLISTED THE SERVICES OF A MANU.
FACTURER with lifelong experience in the making
Of fine underwear, and who willing work for us
for pay because Of large orders given in
the dull season.
WE GUARANTEE THE FIT AND FINISH. All
garments sewed on lock-stitch machines, and all have
felled seams The cheaper garments with less trim
mings but otherwise the same the higher priced.
WHAT IS THE USUAL wAYy
The usual way is to buy from manufacturers ,Uho
trust to looks only. The result is ill-cut ILL fitting gar
ments often without felled seams trimmed with
cheap, snowy embroidery and laces that launder 30
badly that 1t can be written they don't wash ut all
Fair looking when and low in price is this trash
but dear at any price.
THE RESULT OF OUR WAY
is perfect-ftting undergarments which insure more
comfort, superior appearance, and better-6tting
dress, as your dressmaker will tell you. more eco
nomical garment ALSO because of being much more
durable than the goods made in the usual way.
