Well-dressed Men— Among those habitual errors of conduct which arc common in both careful and careless persons, not one is move often met with than disregard of the advantages derivable from being well dressed; yet whoever lives observantly in £i;eh a County as Patca. is soon convinced that this mistake is fruitful of mischievous results. All of us instinctively judge from first impressions; we proceed from the exterior to the interior; a well-dressed man gratifies our fondness for beauty and our appreciation of neatness; and there is no one, however cynical or unobservant, but is pleased when a well-dressed person, even if a stranger, passes by, and disposed to think favorably of him. This universal disposition cannot safely be offended. To be habitually a sloven is to constantly', though unconsciously', offend numerous persons, among whom the favour of some may' be valuable; and therefore a shrewd man is not content to make himself neat now and then, but always will appear well dressed, lie keeps his clothes in good order, and is careful in the selection of a tailor.

In bringing this maxim before public notice, R. A. Adams, Cardigan House, is gratified by remembering that the disposition of a great many of his customers to appear in public well dressed has been met by the combination in his goods of selection, material, good fit. and low price. lie obtains his cloths in the most advantageous markets; he employs first-class cutters and workmen; he avoids obsolete fashions; and he is content with moderate profits in the place of the exorbitant percentage which only a few years ago was universal, and still is frequent in the tailoring trade. His gloves, hats, shirts, hosiery, ties, and scarfs, are also such as will please the most fastidious. Whatever experience, capital, care, and good taste can effect on the tradesman’s side, is done by R. A. Adams, in order that all his customers may realise the substantial advantages of being well-dressed; and that his efforts give satisfaction, is shown: by the rapid and steady increase in the number of those who deal with him.-

Attentive to the changes of costume necessitated by varving seasons, and of style by the dictatce of fashion, E. A. Adams has now on hand a large and carefully selected stock of cloths suitable for all seasons. —R. A. ADAMS' Cardigan House, Carlyle.— ADVT.
