Although he could perform many

him when he first showed symptoms of
poisoning on Monday. Members of the

Between a lane of firemen with bared
beads, the body of "Mickey" was borne

Finest Suits
Great Values -before
we
reduced them!
It's all right for a suit
of clothes to come
down from $100 to $70,
say, but what was -it
doing up there in the,
first place? That is the,
question. So far as the
former prices of these
suits are concerned, no
store in America could
have marked them
lower, and there are
many that would have
marked them higher.
Remember that. Re-
member the quality and
remember the reduc-
tions.
