Mems Unlaunder'd Shirts.


We closed out our former stock some time
ago to make room for this line of Unlaundered
Shirts, which were to be an improvement in
cut, shape and quality over any We have yet
sold at the several prices. These more than
meet our expectations, and we unhestatingly
recommend them as the best shirts made at
their respective prices.
The most noticeable improvements in these
shirts is the slightly wider and gracefully round
ed bosoms The great advantage of these new
bosoms is that the shirt fits better at the neck
and over the breast. and is not forced up into
creases by the trousers. Another improvement
is the reinforced back as well as front, thus
strengthening the shirt in its hitherto weakest
spot.
Remember that, everything else being equal,
perfect-ftting shirt will out-wear an ill-htting
shirt, and zee lag particular stress upon he perfect
fitting qualities Of Our shirts.
We give herein an as minute description Of
our shirts as possible, believing that you appre-
ciate the fact that it is just such seemingly UNI
important points that make one thing better
than another.
