GOOD CLOTHES

Our Suits... Aren’t built for looks alone —they’re built for wear The “inside facts” reveal a judicious use of haircloth and canvas; the button holes and pockets show the same carefnl work. The Spring Suit Shown in the illustration is a fine example of what a good suit should be. The shoulders lend a well built, solid appearance to the figure, the back hangs gracefully, the sleeves are just the right size and length. The whole suit seems a part of the man. HAVE YOU BOUGHT VOUR SPRING SUIT YET ? $9 00 to SIB.OO invested with us for Clothes will give you the largest returns for your money. WE’RE EXPECTING YOU.
