H AF 1 BY SPECIAL APPOINTMENT v siM e tailor TO HIS EXCELLENCY SIR GEORGE FERGUSSON BOWEN, K.G.C.M.G., IT was at one time thought that the people of the Province had a prejudice against everything manufactured here, but 1 must say that, so far as my experience goes, they have been unjustly blamed, for it is finite a common thing for gentlemen to order a suit of . MOSGIEL TWEED, merely for the sake of encouraging NATIVE INDUSTRY, as they are finite sensible that they could get a much better looking suit for less money. As 1 have always been anxious to encourage local industry, it is very gratifying to me to see our TWEED MANUFACTORY receiving so much encouragement, and 1 can assure those gentlemen who have not yet given the MOSGIEL TWEED a trial that they may depend on me supplying them with garments made of it at the CHEAPEST POSSIBLE PRICES, as I am determined to do everything in my power to encourage NATIVE INDUSTRY, and thus keep the money in the country, being fully convinced that we shall never be very prosperous as a community, unless we do so whenever practicable. This is the best way to test our patriotism, and I shall be delighted to find from experience that there are more patriots in this Province than most people suppose. DUX COLLARS IN ALL SIZES.
