allowed to amuse themselves roaming over

Nature has made the place beautiful. but
man has put dangers there.
The dangerous objects are two tide motors
that were built as an experiment som years
ago, and, not proving sucet ssfnl, have been
allowed to lie there and 90 to decay.
In their present condition they are worth
less and a menace 10 the life OF many chill

play over them unless some older person
warns them away.

Merchant Tailoring
Department.

If we excel in ready
made clothing we do even
more SO in the garments
we make to order in our
Custom Department. As
we have frequently stated,
We do not pretend to.com-
pete with the Cheap John
tailors and dingy little
tailoring shops, whose
bungling work cannot even
compare with our ordinary
ready-made goods. We
produce FIRST-CLASS
GARMENTS ONLY.
Our stock of Imported
Woolens is the finest and
largest shown in Pittsburg;
we use none but the best
trimmings and employ
only expert cutters and
tailors. In spite of these
facts we make suits or
trousers to measure for
about IS per cent less
than other frSt-class tail
ors. We don't, as you
see, depend on merchant
tailoring alone-it is but
one of the many depart
ments which go to make
up our business-then, we
buy our cloths in large
quantities, direct from the
European weavers, and in
so doing we get them at
least IS per cent less than
the other tailors who buy
them in small quantities
for the New York i'm
porters.
Gentlemen, if you want
frst-class clothing at reas-
enable prices, leave your
measure here. Give US a
trial at any rate. We
know it will make a per-
manent customer of you.
