A Question lor Every Man
Looking for a New Suit
or a New Overcoat
When you go to buy a new suit or
a new overcoat are you going to be
caught by something that is apparently
cheap, or are you going to insist on
getting something that is intrinsically
good?
Men's suits and overcoats of an ap
parently cheap kind are very plentiful.
' Men's suits and overcoats of an in
trinsically good kind are at least plenti
ful enough to leave no man who wants
a suit or an overcoat of that kind an
excuse for taking the inferior kind.
This is a men's clothing store which
insists on selling none but the best
ready-to-wear suits and overcoats made
in. America. ,
It insists on this, not only on prin
ciple, but as a matter of self-protection.
No store can sell better ready-to-wear
suits and overcoats than Wana-
maker suits and overcoats, because better are not made.
The superiority of Wanamaker suits and overcoats is everywhere in the
garments, but particularly in the better fabrics, always all-wool, the better
tailoring (very much better) and the more correct fashion and finish.
For Fall overcoats our prices are -$45 to $75.
For Winter overcoats as fine as ever were shown $47 to $90.
For Fall and Winter suits the standard of America $40 to $80.

Your Boys and Our Boys'
Clothing
In boys' clothing, probably .more than in any other class of
merchandise, quality means economy.
As a rule, a boy's suit or overcoat that lacks quality cannot
be worth more than one is asked to pay for and oftentimes it is
not worth as much as the supposedly "cheap" price that is asked
for it
, Now, as always, our purpose is to have the finest boys' suits
nnd overcoats that money can buy, ready-to-wear, in this country.
We hold to that purpose as a policy as well as a principle.
We have the boys' suits and overcoats to show for it They
are of the quality that means economy. We will back them
against any nt the same prices anywhere. Suits in 8 to 18 year
sizes at $20 to $35.
Overcoats for chaps of 3 to 10 years, $18 to $50.
Overcoats for boys of 11 to 18 years, $25 to $45.
