Few, if any line of tua de has shown the same marked. improvement RS to
be seen in the well tailored ready-to-wear clothing of to -day. We have stucli-
ed the clothing trade tor the past twenty-five yE aa's, and if experience counts

elusively for this district the celebrated W. R. Johnston & Co'e,.. of Toronto,
clothing. Wide', we consider with our long experience in t,he clothing trade
to be the "par exeellence." The neatest, the best made and most perfect fit-
ting brand of ready-to-wear clothing on the Canadian market to day Its the
krn t hat makcs satisfied customer. Our stock was never so well assorted
as at the present time and for size is second to none in the comity.
