THE TAILOR,
The Champion Filter
Of the World.

ID. Haley. the we'll known Man
Street Tailor, has just received sec
ond letter from well known govern
ment official, whose headquarters are
in this State. The letter is as follows:
WOODSTOCK, VT, Aug. 3, 1898.
MIR. ID. ID. HALEY,
Dear Sir:-In response to your in
ouiry, | feel warranted in saying that
the second suit of clothes you made for
me far exceed the first one in fit and
comfortable feeling (Which did think
was impossibe), and | can truly say
you are an artist in your vocation.
have heard many remarks from
strangers on the fit of tho coat. None
but a master workman could call forth
such remarks.
Very truly,
G. Nj. GILLETTE.
The first suit spoken of Ivy Mi. Gil
lette was so grand in fit that he did not
think it possible to improve on it, but
Haley, the Tailor, was able to improve
on it and will do it every time. That
is the way he does his work and his Gus
toners get the benefit of it, and, as is
we'll known here in Montpelier, his
tailoring is perfection and can nowhere
be equalled on earth by any other
tailor.
Mr.. Haley has just gotten in the finest
line of Fall and Winter samples he has
every had, and invites everybody to
come and look them over. They can
not help being pleased with the style
and variety, and his customers know
that his work is always done at the
lowest living prices, and that he never
spoils garment by making mistit.
Mr.. Haley has in his employ the best
work. man he ever saw. There is not
an equal to him in the State, and with
him as a coat maker, Mr.. Haley can
face any or all the tailors on earth. He
is a specially fine coat maker and all
his work is unsurpassed. 1t is because
Mr.. Haley always has workmen like
this that he takes and Keeps the lead in
Montpelier tailoring. He has been all
over the world and says what his GUS
toners we'll knew, that Mr.. lIalcy's
cutting is the best he ever saw and the
best there is.
