WHAT ADVERTISING WILL Do.
Specially Exemplified i'm the Case OF
Harry Mitchell, Minneapolis
Famous Tailor.

better exemplifcation of what good
and persistent advertising will do for
a man with the goods back of him
than the case of Harry Mitchell, Min
neapolis' popular tailor.
You will notice we said "with the
goods back of him." for there is prob
ably no tailor in the Twin Cities that
carries quarter of the stock that
Harry Mitchell does and the fabrics
being purchased from the foremost
mills of America and Europe, the
qualities are absolutely assured.
Five years ago Mr.. Mitchell was
conducting tailor shop on the second
floor of building in Chicago, making
speciality of the finer class of work.
He had been in this business for seven
years.
One day he woke up TO the fact that
Minneapolis was a pretty good kind of
town and as the western fever grew
upon him, he decided to pull up stakes
and move his belongings here.
He started out in Minneapolis in a
small way growing, growing, till to-
day he is one of the largest tailors in
the United States.
His success is due entirely to the
fact that he is scrupulously honest
always giving little more rather than
little less in all his transactions.
He conducts his business on strict
ly cash basis and no matter who the
customer may be-banker Or laborer-
the goods must be paid for when de-
livered. This has been very potent
factor in the building up of his bust
ness, for there are no bad accounts
standing out, no collectors fees to
paw and no "dead beats" to write off
on the wrong side of the ledger.
His store is located at $40 Nicollet
avenue, is absolutely up-to-date in
every respect and the arrangement
for exhibiting the enormous stock is
commented on by every one who
enters. The fitting or trying-on room
is furnished in most luxurious man
ner, every detail being carefully stud
led out for the comfort of the GUS
toner.
Mr.. Mitchelps work rooms, where
two hundred and forty people are en-
ployed, are located at Hennepin and
Fourth street. There are no better,
more commodious, more sanitary tall
oring quarters in the world than those
provided by Harry Mitchell for his
employees. Everything runs like
clockwork and it would indeed be hard
to find a more contented, happier
bunch than work there.
Mr.. Mitchell has always been an ad-
vocate of paying man good wages
and probably no tailor in the country
employs such high priced cutters as
he does. He believes in getting the
best that money can buy. He has alb
solutely no use for man unless he's
a past master at his business and that
is one reason why Harry Mitchell has
no fear i'll putting on his single "sat-
isfaction or no pay"
His customers include some of this
best dressers in Minneapolis, but it
makes no difference to Mr.. Mitchell
whether the customer is banker,
railroad president or $15 week
clerk, they all get the same painstak-
ing attention.
That Harry Mitchell has absolutely
become famous for his made to- order
$15, $40 and $25 suits and overcoats is
an established fact-not only in Min
neapolis alone, but in all the surround
ing states. His mail order business
has grown so rapidly in the past two
years that it became imperative for
him to enlarge his quarters. He pr DIES
himself on his perfected self-measure-
ment system and says it makes no diff
ference where man may live, he can
fit him just as well as if he took his
measure himself.
AS previously said, Mr.. Mitchell is
a stanch believer in publicity. He says
YOU can't catch fish without bait and
he doesn't see how the public is going
to know what you've got to give them
unless you tell them Minneapolis
Journal.
