Men Must Try Not to
Become Bees
and be stung by themselves as well as by others, as
(bees do sometimes when they quarrel.
Impatience is often the cause of it!
Have you ever noticed how awkward one
becomes in his impatience while searching for a
paper, book or whatnot that has been mislaid?
A man owning a horse that stumbled would
soon part with it, lest he might be injured.
Impatience is a stumbling horse and liable to
injure us whenever we ride or drive it.
The conveniences, roominess and simple,
v straightforward ways of this Store are preventives
of impatience.

Tomorrow Men Will Begin in Real
Earnest to Buy Their New
Easter Clothes
(If any man icauts to knoiv why, let him look at the calendar and note
the number of Saturdays between now and Easter Sunday.)
Perhaps you will expect us to praise the new suits and overcoats which,
we are ready to show you, but we are not going to, because we have no
need to.
It is a poor store that isn't willing to let customers form their own judg
ments. We do not wish to pre-judge our own goods. We are not only willing
that the men should judge these new suits for themselves we are very
anxious that they should do it.
Not all the talk in the world can prevent quality from showing itself
in a man's clothes if it is there already or put quality into them if it is not.
We always try to have men's clothing that has the quality already in it.
This season, above all others since this business was first begun, we
have a feeling that men's clothes should be exceptionally good, especially the
younger men's suits. What we feel is that the men getting out of khaki and
into what the English call "civies" should have the finest kind of "civies" to.

The nrices $28 to $65 for the entire suit stock. 1
