T)ROFESSOR TYNDALL, in his closing reX marks at the late meeting of the British Association, said : — "ln the struggle for existence between truth and error, the law of the Universe \9 always to select the one, and always to check and stamp out the other." It is on this law that I rely for success in carrying out my various clothing schemes, and when Q-entlemen purchase my £3 5s genuine Tweed Suits, I give simply a practical illustration of its] working philosophy, which would be of no use— if not positively injurious — could I not apply its teachings to the plain, practical, every day business of life. In this particular instance " truth " may quite reasonably be represented by the £3 5s genuine Tweed Suit, while " error " may be found in the excessive charges and long credit system of other town clothiers.
