L —— A Owning to its posiion in Washington, it being the only line running directly through the clty, the B, & O.’s advan tages for the proper and prompt care of its patrons for the inauguration are wholly unapproached by competing lines. All the pastenger traftic of other llnes from the West must combine with the traffic from the East, and thus the single line into the national capital be clogged with trains to an enormous extent. The B. & O. handles its business from the East wholly independent from fits busi- ness from the West, the channels of en- trance into the clty being different, and forall purposes in view the Baltimore and Ohio really hss two lines Into the ocapltal, one from the West and the other from the Esst.

JATARRH, BRONCHITIS, DALLY BEE“FRIDAY, FEBRUAKRY 27 addressing 1885 PLAIN TRUTHS ABOUT MISEFITS Let the Public Read and Learn where Rivalry Overreaches Itself, The Misfit Clothing Parlors 1312 Douglas street, have recently been re- celving some extensive free advertising from a ready-made clothier who probably imagines that by abusing us he is bettering himselt, well if he thinks so let him keep on, It amuses him and dont hurt us, We expected to hear some one ‘'squeal” when we opened business here. The individ- ual who has been getting rich bycharging high prices always, “squeals” when some one comes along and calls extortion by selling goods at rea- sonable figures, The grocer who sands his sugar is generally the individ- ual who prates the most sbout his own honesty, and accuses all his rivals with being rogues. We wish to enter into no controversy with anyone. The individual who loses his head, and neglects his business to abuse a rival, isgenerally apoor business man, We are not talking about any one in particular,but there aresome people right here whom our remarks,particu- larly fits, forthe plain truth is that misfits are nearly as numerous as perfect fits, besides making mistakes in fits. The tailors have thousands of dollars worth of garments annually left on their hands by parties ordering suits, pants orovercoats, and then refusing to take them. ‘The misfit dealer is isthe only market the tailor has for these goods, because a rival says there are no misfits, it doesn’t make it so, it merely demonstratesthat he either didn’'t know what he was talking about or else he knowingly made a “misfit” statement. Let the public judge between us, abuse is not argu= ment, neither is it good sense. 8ee what we offer, compare our goods with cheap ready made clothing and see if our'garments do not demons- trate that theyare superior cloth and tailor made.
