W. & B.'s X " Ironclad " Cloth. This is our th'rd years' run on it. "Thought we made up enough of it the first season : thought the same every season since. Every season we have" had more customers for it than we had goods. Tftis season ware not going to make that mistake. We'll have enough for everybody, and to last the season out. We have pretty big ideas of what wc can sell. When it sells faster than even we expected, rely- on it, it mtist be : good. - ■ ' There isn't as good to be had anywhere for equal money. It's all-wool : ail long wool : long, strong wool : nothing but wool : neither cotton nor flocking to make it heavier or i lower the cost. It's an honest cloth, through and through, with a heap of wear past the ordinary in it. ; . , No other store has it. Wc twisted and pulled and t harried it in ali sorts of ways to try how it would stand rough usage, and then took all the mill made.
