TAILOR MADE CLOTHING. ee For several years the demand has been for the cheaper grades of clothing—not ‘Show good’’ put “how cheap.’’ Men who formerly bought $15 suits were content with $8 or $10 values. Merchants catered to this demand and in many instances offered clothing whose only recommendation was cheapness—the cloth, aN SMG ys RE IIE probably, good but the making and trimming of the poorest quality. That kind of clothing is not cheap at any price and the public have found it out and are demanding a better qual- ity. Anticipating this demand we have bought a much larger stock of the fameus Baltimore tailor made clothing than for years past. Our $12.50 and $15 suits have especial- ly good values. They are sewed with pure dye silk—are properly cut—have extra quality trimmings, are made by tailors and will hold their shape. They were bought before the advance and hence are offered at old prices. Mexs a Bors OvrritvEns \ 0986 9G66 8804 0826006005060 eee BUTLER WEEKLY Ti M ES Great line of work goods in Butler.

How such a ridicu- lous story could gain ¢ culation is a lutely a pure linseed oil paint. Rutcher’s paint is not ‘‘ready mixed’’ or mystery. The facts are. there has not been a death from the disease ealléd smallpox in this city. The disease has not been even severe. and the only trouble attached to it thus far, by the city authorities is to keep the patients indoors or confined to their homes while in a contagious state. ‘‘prepared paint”’ or ‘‘liquid paint,” and must not be classed among these misnomers, the largest majority of which have no value as painting ma- terial and are a mixture of alkali water, benzine or cheap oils. Rutcher’s paint is to be used in the same manner as pure white lead and painter’s colors, and the user must make his own paint with same, thin- ning the paint with pure linseed oil, equal parts of paint and oil. This gives the user the advantage of knowing positively that he is getting a pure paint and in purchasing his own linseed oil he knows, for a surety, he is getting what he pays for. Pure linseed oil is the very life of paint, it is as essential to a durable job of painting as the foundation is to the superstructure.
