Stop, Look and Listen Is a
Good Old Wayside Sign
There's a great difference between wants
and needs.
The wages of your husband or yourself may
continue. Do not spend them too hastily, for
big wages will not go on forever unless some
way is discovered to earn them by more rapid
or superior workmanship.
While high wages will exist so long as
scarcity exists, it is best to save all the money
you can and try to put it into one of the several
-good savings funds. "-
s Do not let it be tricked away from you by
half-price sales or fake investing companies.
We shall always endeavor to have on hand
the largest stocks of our qualities of merchan
dise, and all of it is for sale. Frequently we
think it to be our duty to caution you not to let
your money go too easily. Half-price sales
anywhere are almost always where the goods
were overmarked at first and reduced to be
temptingly advertised. When we for any reason
obtain goods at half price we so advertise them
and not otherwise.
Keep your heads and feet these days.
Signed

Many a Man's Ideal
in a Summer Suit Is Spelled
S-R-R"G-E
Especially for Juiip and July, it is hard to improve upon
serge well tailored. We would lay special emphasis upon the
tailoring, because s-erge is a matcnal that simply must be '
tailored skilfully.
Our assortment of blue and black seige suits is large, and
the suits are fine and dependable without exception. We have
them in a ariety of models, including regular styles, as well as
those for younger men.
Good tailorwork is the mark of all Wanamaker men's suits.
It counts for mote in soige suits than in suits made of any other
materials, which fact in itself means that a Wanamaker serge
suit is the best serge suit t,hat any man can buy. No other suit '
that we know di esses a man better, keeps him cooler and gives
him more all-iound satisfaction in hot weather.
These seige suits of ours are half lined, some with silk1,
