Oak Ham. is the place; ' and its practice may* be ! V I I j

— - - • • • ^ summed up in a few words. -> * . j 1 ' If you get there what you don't want to kfsep at the price, you return it, and get ! your money back. This means a gre^t deal I more than appears on the i : surface. It means that you are not going to get what : you will not want to keep at the price, if the merchant can help it. It means that the j clothes you get there will be of honest clotlis, honestly * made; and that they will cost you lesS than as good : clo dies can be got for elsewhere. It means that they will be every way better worth your morf?y than you can get elsewhere for the same money. If it means anything less | than these things — if it means poor cloths, trimmings, cutting, sewing, or in any way | dishonest or illiberal dealing HI the return of his goods will ' plague the merchant, injure his credit, and dissipate his trade. If it means these tilings — • if it means liberal and honorable dealing, valuable and trusty clothing, ease and , safety in getting it, Oak Hall j is the place for you to go to, | or. to send to; and it is worth j your while to know how you can send, if it is inconvenient | to go. Write ; say what your occupation is ; say what sort of use you intend to make of the clothes you ! want, whether- for every-day ! wear or otherwise ; what color you prefer, or what color to avoid; say about what 'you want to pay ; say everything that you think may aid a stranger in choosing for you. You will get in reply samples of cloths and prices of whatever you want made from those clotlis. You will get also the means of having \ your measure taken by an unskilful person. There is only one difficulty left. Somebody has i got to take the risks of the | dealing ; for there are risks. { Send /your money along with your order. Thai covers the' risk as to your ! good faith. We risk cvery1 tiling else ; the fit, and your satisfaction every way. i ' Our trade by mail | amounts to half a million dollars a year; there's no reason why it shouldn't amount to fivo millions.
