True conservation lies in buy ing clothes made of good mate rials, which are thoroughly tai lored. Such clothing will give long service and constant satisfaction. You can't buy suits of this char acter now at $15 or $18, no mat ter what the ads say. Don't pay less than $20 for your Fall or Winter suit or overcoat prefer ably pay $25 or more (we have them up to $75). We urge this in the interest of true economy' The man who spends only $15 or $18 for a suit at the present prices of clothes will have to spend another $15 or $18 very soon, if he doesn t want to look shabby.
