"That's fine," the man said when he heard it; "where did it come from?" "Thy tongue,". dear man, "betrayeth thee," as an old poet has written. How little some of our fathers taught us, while the old fathers in Israel taught their children daily from "The Book of the Law," until they had it almost word for word. But the point of this conversation is to be careful that wc arc not in fault ourselves when we speak unkindly of and take exceptions , to others. Careless speech often parts people who should be friends and who might be very helpful to each other. The whole idea of all this large business wc are spending so much of our time, thought and strength upon is to be exceptionally and unequivocally helpful to its patrons. We prepare ourselves thoroughly to do this one thing. For whatever else comes to us will be satisfactory compensation. Signed Not. 13, I'Jli.

This Men's Clothing Store went into the war period an all-wool store and it has come out of -it wii,h that standard unlowered. What matters to you men today, however, i.s to know just how closely these statements bear upon the actual stocks we can show you and the service we can give. For the three 'things that count with men looking for suits, overcoats and service, arc tho suits, the overcoats and the service a store has to ofl'er. We have suits and overcoats made upon tho principle that the more wc can give a man in service and style and satisfaction and lit, the more he is likely to deal with us. Our actual experience of going on sixty years is that good quality at a fair price brings men of sense back for more. There is more really good quality in the suits and over coats that we have to show today than will be found in any other suits and overcoats at the same prices in Philadelphia, a mere assertion perhaps, but we are thoroughly ready for any man who needs convincing on this particular point.
