GENTLEMEN: l have just
received fine line of Fall
and Winter Styles for Suit
ings and Overcoats. Any
one thinking of getting gar
ments made, of any descrip-
ton, will do we'll to look over
these goods. Do not think
you have to go out of town
in order to get a Nice, Stylish
Suit, as you can get just as
good a suit at home and at
less cost and trouble. "Oh!"
but some of you may say,
1--WE cannot get suited" Why
can't you get suited? Be
cause you will not be suited.
You think it must come from
somewhere - anywhere; but
not at home. You may be
prejudiced, owing to some
trifling matter that is of no
consequence, and that good
Judges would overlook.
Away with your prejudices,
and patronize home indus
try. You merchants, pro
fessional men and mechanics
all expect to be supported
by home patronage and in
dustry; why not set a good ex
ample and have your wants
in the tailoring line supplied
at home, which saves you
trouble and expense? Do
not delude yourselves by
thinking you have to 60 out
of town to get what you want,
