GOOD CLOTHES
economical
i Good clothes arc an economy
not a luxury. Good clothes arc a
source of lasting satisfaction,
while cheap clothes arc short
lived, never satisfactory, and in
the end prove the most expensive.
'J Owing to tlie important fact that the cost
nf labor employed in manufacturing clothes
is practically as high for making cheap
clothing as it is for better grades, the cost
of making is about the same in one as in
the other.
J All of our CJothing i made by manuiat.
turcrs whose standards of workmanship
are of tlie highest. The prices wc ask for
goods of their production arc not higher
than thoe asked in other stores for mer
chandise of inferior style and tailoring.
