Happiness and Half Happiness
Are Miles and Miles Apart
There is as much difference as there
is between Winter and Summer.
There are few cities or homes or
churches that would not be better off if
it were not for jealousies and friendships
broken off for some undefined and
unknown reason.
One or the other made a mistake,
and the two men or women who could
have helped each other drifted apart
and both have been and are poorer and
unhappier for it.
The hearty good will one for the
other is one of our best assets in this
store.

Shop (on the Gallery just a few steps from the Chestnut Street Main En
trance) one of the most remarkable offerings ever made, by any store, to the
men of Philadelphia
800 Splendid London Overcoats
at $40 to $85
(These prices being considerably lower than domestic
overcoats of equal grades can possibly be sold for,)
PLEASE do not let this rather startling
headline give any one the impression
that England is now or is going to be able
to send men's clothing to this country to
undersell American clothing.
That is something that cannot be done
Except for This Once in a
Lifetime Occasion!
We got these goods over 600 of
them by means of an extraordinary
special purchase such as we firmly believe
cannot be' made again with anybody.
These overcoats are not unknown
things.
They are the famous Kenneth Dur
ward, "Ulster House, field and town top
coats that are celebrated all over Europe
and America.
In reputation, in fashion, in tailoring,
in reliability, .they are second to none in
the world.
early tomorrow morning we will have
'
(rhe
duller)-,
They are, of course, unmistakably
London overcoats, with the easy shoulders
and skirty effects that look as if nobody
in the world but a British tailor could
put them in.
Some are plenty conservative enough
for club and evening wear, but most of
them are the big, warm wrap-up Winter
type of overcoats that you want for gen
eral utility, whether for street, or automo
bile wear or country use.
The models in the Sale are "Aintree,"
both single and double breasted, "Con
duit," single and double breasted, and
"Taglion" and "Balmacaan," and they
include all that we have of these models in
our own stocks, for when the great London
shipment of over 600 came in the other
day we had to bring our own stock of
nearly 200 down to meet the prices of the
new shipment.
Materials include Saxonies, fleeces,
covert cloths, cheviots, tweeds and angoras.
Colors run the whole gamut of
browns, greens, grays, blues and blacks
that are fashionable at the moment.
At $40 to $85 each the prices arc
away below what you would have to pay
for domestic goods of equal quality.
Also 230 Men's London Golf
Suits at One Price, $48.50
These are the finest golf suits in
America, and we believe that they are the 4fc
finest that have ever come out of England.
They include the famous Sunningdale
models that have become so well known in
the highest-class country clubs of the
country.
They are all by Kenneth Durward, of
Ulster House, London, and contain more
in fabric, in tailoring, in reliability and in
fashion than any other golf suits we have
ever handled.
For $48.50, every one of these 20
suits ought to go marching out in a day.
