AS WE MAKE THE

Manufacturers

The value of whose products is counted by millions of dollars, feel their advantages over

^i^ jjAited dealers more than ever before^.for they p® afford to sell their merchandise at amuch^ lower figure than small dealers can. Our be--^'1! jef remains unshaken, and we shall act uponi jv t, that the best time to sell cheap is when thers are selling dear thatmorefortunes have een made by selling at low prices than at

Jg prices and, finally, that the price .tells, f(and everybody tells the price, whether the rice be high orlow-l^'^^'^^t^py1

The fabrics from which we mantfacwed our spring and summer stock were selected before the recent advance, which enabled us to not only save our customers the middleman's profit, but also save them the recent advance that every small dealer :had to pay for his goods- vi-iK'F

We therefore take pleasure in announcing to our patrons that Men's, Youth's, Boy's and Children's Clothing, Gent's Furnishing Goods of every shade and grade, will be retailed at last year's wholesale prices.
