For years the finest clothiersin NewYork, on account of sick- ness, decide to retire. New Y ork’s biggest furnishing concern takes the gents’ furnishing stock, New York’s leading cloth- iers take the ready-made clothes, and New York’s leading tailor, meaning myself, buys their entire tailoring outfit. I purchase woollens, uniform cloths, rainproof cloths, cloths that they used for liveries, and cloths they used to dress up all the musical I have everything. Thousands of yards of beau- tiful worsteds, tweeds, cheviots, fine German drape, uscd for their I have the uniform cloths in all shades. have their fine English and other foreign canvases uscd in all their $60 to I have their silks and satin linings used in these garments, bought for practically nothing, and I intend to give the Dias people of New York the benefit of this buy. The understanding is that I am not to use the name of the concern from whom these goods were bought, as their retirement does not q mean financial difficulty, and is only a clean-up of men after an honorable career in business, and refuse to allow any notoriety on my part, The full dress suit I will cut from their goods, put in their interlining, their silk linings, their buttons, and small trimmings that they used when they sold that suit for $90.00, will be equally as good, f although moved down three or four blocks, to my store, when I charge # the customer $18 for the same full dress suit.
