Mexico weekly ledger., 1893-07-27

sions of his store building are "a
by 20 feet, the same being filled
from floor to ceiling with q stock
that is new and fresh, and diversi-
fed to suit the wants and demands
of the Mexico and Audrain county
public, and all are nicely arranged
to show to. best advantage. This
gentleman buys and sells exclus-
lively tor cash, and as his goods
are bought IN such quantities that
he gets gu ,ntity discounts as well
as cash discounts, it will thus be
seen that he can place his goods in
the hands of his customers at the
lowest possible prices for the
standard grades, and of which he
handles no other than the best.
His stock consists in part OF dry
goods, dress goods and notions,
also ladies' and gents furnishing
goods and hats and caps. His dis
play OF fine shoes for ladies and
chlldren's wear is as comprehensive
as can be seen in this part OF the
state. He also carries a full line of
mems and boys boots and shoes,
and makes his boot and shoe de-
partment a special feature; in this
respect he caters to some of the
most desirable trade in the city.
In the matter of hats and caps and
mems furnishings, he now has his
full summer stock on hand and in
transit ; therefore,, no house in
Mexico can furnish a larger or finer
assortment to select from, and as
the goods in this house are here to
be sold tor cash only, and upon
which cash discount prices will be
given, it will pay all to call before
buying elsewhere. The LEDGER's
great trade edition endorses the
CHEAP CASH HoUsE-wlth VIM. j,
McLoney at the helm-as the place
to buy standard goods IN it's line,
and thereby say money.
TOmlinsOn IL 90.
The only establishment in Mex
leo that is exclusively devoted to
the sale and diplay of hats and
caps and mems furnishings, is that
OF the above named. The firm OF
Tomlinson Il Co. opened their
doors for business on the 7th OF
January of the present year, and
up to the date OF this writing
they have enjoyed a good and con.
%stantly increasing tIade. The 10.
cation of this enterprise is on the
west side of the public square in
the kabrich block, where it's quar-.
tiers occupy a space OF % by "
feet, the same being stocked with
a fine assortment of head wear and
gent's furnishing goods, as also
merchant tailoring goods, the latter
of which this firm makes a special
feature /; in this respect it caters
only to those who have theil
clothes made to order by metropol'
ltan taiiors, who guarantee a fit in
the latest styles. The measure ii
taken here at the store, where the
goods are also selected. The meas
ure is then sent into their merchan,
tailoring establishment in Chicago
where the garments are cut and
made, and returned. 1t may be
we'll to mention the fact that this
firm has taken 1872 measures since
the first day of February last, anG
of this large number they have mo-
had a misfit, and as this record
speaks for itself no further com
ment is necessary. The manage
ment of this enterprise is in tn,
hands of Mr.. Jouett Tomlinson
who for twelve years was travelling
representative for large jobbinl
houses in these lines ; which expe
rience as a travelling salesman givel
him inside figures and special ad
vantages in his present business
and as the stock is all selected by
Mr.. Tomlinson in person., ane
bought for cash, it will be seen tina
patrons of Tomlinson & Co., hat
ters and furnishers, will get thu
best In the Mexico market for tn,
least money; and in the matter O
tailor-made suits will get guaran
teed fits in every case.
