The funeral service was conducted at the residence in West Lawn at C:.!0 .hi- afternoon, Mrs. P. M. Maxfleld, pastor of 1he A. M. E. church, having charge of the ser- i vice. Interment was in Greenwood cemetery. .Mrs. Wilson was one or the most highly respected colored ladles of thit city. She was .!K years, 1 month and LI days of ni?e a,t the j time of her demise. She was the j mother of nine children, seven of I whom are living. To the motherless ' children and the bereaved husband The Herald wishes to offer 'a word j (,f sympathy. You'll get a good fit E chief reason, we believe, why some men have their clothes "made to measure" is that they think they get a better fit; and if you go to some very high-priced expert you will probably get clothes, if not better fitting, better made than any ready clothes; even ours. Such a tailor will charge $50 to $75 for a suit; if you want to pay so much, do it. But there are many men who go to some small tailor; or select their cloth from l sample, have their measure taken by somebody who may or may not know how, and wait a week or two for the suit to be made and sent. They think they're getting something "special." But such a man can find, in any store selling our goods, better clothes better style, fit, tailoring for less money; and in nine cases out of ten, wear the suit home.
