High grade w o rkm anship is never cheap; reliab le fabric® have* an in trin s ic value and Hie linings and bindings of a good garm ent are expensive. O f course a I cheap coat looks alm ost as good as a high grade one fo r a short time, but then several alm ost good eggs are not w orth one first-cl ass one at breakfast time.
