1 believe it is possible to build up a much
larger tsiloring business in Alexandria than
has ever existed here. I believe also that
while PRICES is factor, the first and mos.
important thing is THOROUGHLY GOOD
WORK. In other words while men want low
prices they also demand good cloth and we'll
cut, and well made garments. have bought
both here and in Europe bigger stock of
high -ade cloths than usual, and at advan.
tageous prices. have the best workmen
tbst money can hire. and Pm attending right
to business myself as have been these twelve
years. 1 have carefully counted the cost Of
everything have figured not how much
such work should bring, but how little can
do it for, and Pm going to make the price
