Walk a Block and Save f-3 of Your Money With Franz Wilhelm back at 'his old table in the Andrews Bros, tailor ing establishment and all of the work ers of his former shop on the benches, the Toggery now boasts the- largest tailoring establishment between Port land and Denver. 'According to Al. AnrlfAtira U 1 " .1 I JT aieton and Baker can not equal his force of workers in numbers, and the city of Boise itself, has not as large a shop. Last year this shop made in th9 vicinity of 500 suits of clothes which is an argument that most of the men of this city and valley are well dress ed. Besides the local trade, the pro prietors say they are attracting many of the traveling men wo regularly make La Grande on their rounds and that this source of work keeps half of their force busy. The old order of things was effected for the purpose ofmaintaining the reputation of the shop and Wilhelm was made such a flattering proposi tion that he could not reject. The shop has been re-arranged and some of the furniture from Wilhelm's former stand has been added to the equipment of the Toggery. Ten men are constantly employed. ' The business has been making sub stantial increases each year and this new arrangement will enable them to take care of an increased trade. Cough Medicine for Children.'
