THE OLD ESTABLISHMENT,
No. 120 Fulton-Street, NEW-YORK.
PUNCTUALITY IS THE LIFE OF BUSINESS.
M. QUON'S
STEAM SCOURING & CLOTHES DRESSING EMPORIUM.
A WORD TO THE WISE IS SUFFICIENT.
THE Subscriber returns his sincere thanks to the citizen of New-York, for the kind and liberal patronage which he has received in the line of his profession, and solicits a continuance of their favours, as he again renews to them the assurance that he will remain true to his motto.
M. QUON confeses that there has been, and still is great cause for the public to doubt who are and who are not good workmen; and the reason is this—every one pretends to clean and dress clothes differently and in a peculiar manner, known only to themselves. Now, if this is true, there are no less than twenty different new inventions in the art of Clothes Cleaning. But as to the truth of this assertion, I shall not undertake to decide either pro or con, but will leave it to the judgement of an enlightened and intelligent community.
M. QUON also confesss that he has not received, either in theory or theoretically, any of the new inventions which appear to have been so liberally dealt out from the mint of invention upon the heads of his profesional associates; and therefore, in spite of his blushes for the want of the merit of a new inventor, is compelled to offer his services in the plain OLD WAY, which has been, and must be, pursued by all good workmen, whatever they may say to the contrary notwithstanding. Therefore, consult your real interest, and call at the EMPRORIUM. M. QUON,
No. 120 , Fulton-Street.
