Is it a tiling offered at a cheap price , with no value in it , made
from a cheap fabric which would prove dear at any price ; or is it a
thing bought by the merchant at such prices that he can sell to the con *
sumer a better thing at less price than he could purchase an inferior *
article for ? The Only Misfit Clothing Parlors , 1119 Farnam street
boasts of furnishing nothing but the latber , no cheap goods , nothing bul ;
such as man could leave his order for at a leading merchant tailoring
establishment for which he would have to pay double the price that lid
can buy the same for at The Misfit Parlors. Should you be on the alert
for bargains in your purchases of clothing , pay a visit and inspect what
awaits your consideration. As a guide , cut this out and bring it witl'i
you. You will find that
"We like opposition ,
And that we defy competition ,
And under no condition
"Will we budge from our position
And to substantiate these facts we propose to oifer the clothing btiyer
as a holiday gift merchant tailor made goods for less than one-half the
original prices. It is no forced or closing sale for the goods at the fol
lowing prices will sell themselves.
