TEXTNowadays it is a sine qua non with every man engaged in business life to be well dressed. The world goes largely by appearances, and to the natural dignity of the man tasteful dress adds great impressiveness. A celebrated wit and writer once said, "Show me the clothes a man has worn and I will tell you his history," and under this aphorism there is much of sound sense and philosophy. The importance of the art of the tailor was never so well understood or so heartily appreciated as at the present day, and the fact constitutes one of those features of modern civilization which an accurate journalist cannot conscientiously overlook. Hence, in presenting to our readers a faithful picture of the business interests of Newark, the trade of the merchant tailor must necessarily occupy an honorable position. The leader in this line is probably Mr. Wm. S. Lambert, of No. 204 Market Street, near Broad, who has been established here some nine years. He was formerly at No. 318 Market Street, and moved to his present address on April 1st 1880. He is a thoroughly practical and experienced man. As a cutter he ranks among the artists of the profession. He carries an exceedingly choice line of domestic and imported goods; Mr. Lambert is doing a very fine trade, his customers including the prominent business men of Newark and the surrounding country, while he has quite a number in New York. The reason of this is that he can afford to give better value for money than is possible with any New York house. There are more tailors in Newark than in any other city of its size in the Union, and rents and other expenses are lower. Altogether, circumstances are strongly in favor of Mr. Lambert, who is certainly "the" fashionable tailor of Newark.
