$ Very naturally the question
of, price enters into your cal
culations inplanningfor the
Fall and Winter clothing
outlay.
I We want you to carefully
.consider JACOB REED'S
SONS along the line of econ
omy we believe that we can
save you money by the simple
method of selling you cloth
ing that will give satisfaction
and service.
J You will find Clothing lots of it
marked at figures lower than those at
which reliable goods can be bought,
but that character of merchandise is
really the most expensive. Real
economy lies in buying value not in
paying a low price which will only
buy oor goods.
Compare price. Compare value.
Compare the reputation and business
standing of the various clothiers
before you decide.

Never on sale before at any price
and never on sale again at this price!
WE. can afford to be perfectly frank about it
and tell you that we personally are not as- :
suming the great loss represented by the
above figures. We ourselves secured the concession
at thc source. Our only claim to credit is'that we
are passing it along, as we always do pass along, the
benefits that are passed to us. These suits are new,
the fabrics are staple, the workmanship is excellent,'
and the value, at $35, is so good that we delayed
our formal Fall opening two weeks in order to
focus public attention upon this unusual oppor
tunity for saving money without sacrificing qual
ity to do it. If new Fall models in fine silk mixed
worsteds and self-figured weaves, at $35 apiece
are not remarkable in these times, then we are
prepared to take a college course in values and un
lcarn the teachings of a lifetime in the clothinir
business! h
