Intensified Value Sale
of this Season
started off this morning witli
900 Winter Suits
800 Winter Overcoats
at $15
of fabrics of a quality to be
found selling everywhere in
Suits and Overcoats at $25,
322.50 and 320, and that we our
selves could sell at those prices
as easiljr as rolling off a log!
1$ This is the last opportunity of its kind this year
---and because it is the last, it is also the greatest!
The advances in the prices of woolens xat the
mills are so great as to be almost prohibitive,
and they are hanging up new high quotations
daily ! We could easily hold these Suits and Over
coats to speculate with, for we have plenty of
others to sell at $15. But these Intensified Values
at $15 arc separate and apart from our regular $15
Suits and Overcoats, and are not to be compared
with anything we or anybody else can sell in the
regular way at $15!
J The values in these Suits and Overcoats are
even more pronounced than were those in our
October and November sales, and getting $25,
$22.50 and $20 for them would be the easiest
thing in the world, for they are worth every cent
of those prices! We're selling them for this One
Week Only at the
Uniform Price
$15
simply because we are sticking to schedule we
went after them, and prepared them with this one
end in view of making a $15 sale that would be
long remembered by Philadelphians!
THE OVERCOATS
i
J The Overcoats are single-breasted and double
breasted Ulsters and Ulsterettes; single-breasted
and double-breasted box-back coats; single
breasted and double-breasted kimono-sleeve coats;
button-through fronts; fly fronts; velvet collars
or cloth collars, presenting a wide range of pat
terns, in Oxfords, in bluish, greenish and grayish
mixtures, plaid effects, and color combinations
that combine life and good taste. n,l.,l,-.,i..rfTifrtff'j
THE SUITS
The Suits are of dark-mixed worsteds, cassi
meres, cheviots, dark grays and heavyweight blue
serges, a few full lined with silk, a few lined with
silk only in shoulders and sleeves, balance lined
with mohair; In plain backs and in Norfolk backs
with new touches of style in lapels, pockets,'
cuffs and waistlines.

CJ Every day the buying is bound to increase until
Saturday, when men will throng our aisles! The
wise thing to do is to come early and make sure
of yours under the most favorable circumstances!
