Metter Bargains than ever, at the three Big
Doors.
IjIHE subscriber would respectfully inform his Gus..
tomers and the public generally, that notwithstad
lag the unprecedented sales at the Three Big Doors,
dttring the present season - , he has still on hand the lar
gest' and most varied assortment of elegant CLO-
TlitING that can be bought west of the mountains.—
Ili public may rest assured that all articles offered at
his "store are m aufactured from FRESH GOODS, pur
• chased in the Eastern markets this spring and made in
togarments by Pitttsburgh workmen.
In consequence of the multiplication of slop shops in
OUT city, filled with pawn brokers clothes and the =is:: -.
cast off garment= of former seasons, from the eastern ci
' lima, the public should be cautious to ascertain the char
acter of the establishments in which they are invited to
'purchase, before they part with their money. The arti
' des offered at several of the concerns in this city, are
the mere offals of New York and Philadelphia slop
shape, snd sent out here to be palmed off on the Pitts
'burgh public. Purchasers should be on their guard a
l's-last theie` impositions, and they may rely on the fact
liuttno establishment that advertises eastern made Clo
ilitt' g, can give as good an article or as advantageous
'bargains as can be had at the "Three Big Doors."
The public will please remember that all the subscri
'ber's garments are made in this city, by competent work
- men, and not gathered up bite the goods now offered by
the "birds of passage" from the shreds and patches of
eastern slop shops. It will always be his endeavor to
Warman the reputation that the "Three Big
of Doors"
hive obtained for furnishing a superior style CLO
THING in every re pect, and at prices below those of
pitether establishment.
-lie 'weed again return his thanks to his friends and
'lliis public for the unprecedented patronage bestowed
-upon his establishment, and believing that they have
40andit to their advantage to deal with him, he would
repeat his invitation to all those who wish to purchase
