An Outstanding Feature of
Our Men's Clothing Stock
Tropical Suits
The collection here is really quite
unusual
Firttt. For the great number of dif
ferent styles and fabrics represented.
We doubt if uiual variety or compre
hensiveness can be found anywhere
under one loof in Philadelphia to-day.
Stcnnd. Tor the faultless way in
which these Tropical Suits have been
tailored to hold their shape and give
smooth, unbioken drape to the sheer
weight fabrics.
Tlmd. For the matchless value
these Suits pi cent at the pi ices here.
This can be easily verified by compar
ing them giade for grade, price for
price, with thoe shown elsewhere.
