JOHN F. TOBIN, Praident
Since I ran my last ad three dealers in “ready-to-hop-in-clotlies’
have called me up and said I was knocking them. T don’t want to
knock anybody. It doesn’t pay. I simply told the truth about men
who know good tailoring and their experience in trying to make an
“approximate measure” lit their individual needs.
When I measure a man for a suit the measurements are carefully
put down ia a book and the cloth, after thorough sponging, is cut to
these measurements—your exact measurements.
T hat’s why Barkhurst clothes fit and their wearers become my
patrons. This expert Union tailoring and my low prices, $ 2 2 .0 0
to $ 5 0 .0 0 , made possible by my large volume of business and
thorough organization of Union men and women, is why I am doing
the largest high-grade tailoring business in the city.
