POR ( ENTLEMEN OMLY. IF THERE was one expressive, comprehensive word that in itself would induce every reader to come and see our new stock, we would quickly say it and stop right there. The one favor we ask, is that you should come and inspect. We ask nobody to buy goods that do not please them in every respect. We ask nobody to give us patronage unless our prices are just right. We are, however, anxious to show our Spring attraction of London and New York markets to all of you, on their merits. Our new metro- politan styles and fair prices we are confident will prove sufficient and all-powerful arguments with experienced judges, and give us a splendid season ' s trade. Please let your judgment and inclination decide upon the superior merits of our stock. TEF FAMf HS Substantial Clothiers . Merchant Tailors 2 AND 3 WIETING BLOCK, SYRACUSE, N. Y.
