How delightful it is to take the hand and

Stick to your old friends, old teachers, and

Cent Less
When will there again
be such as assortment of
suits of this character at
the same advantage in
price as you will find in
this Manufacturers' Re
adjustment Sale? That
is a question not easy to
answer.
But a n y body ac

stand that at the prices
now marked on them,
suits of this quality are
as remarkable and as
sound an investment as
there is in all the world
of merchandise at the
present time. The 40
per cent saving is from
the new low prices.
Compared with the
prices of December and
January last the saving
is really 50 per cent
(Fifth I'loor,
On merchandise of
this fine class a saving is
doubly worth while.
It means buying some
thing really and intrinsi
cally superior at so much
less than its just value.
There is no doubt but
that these arc suits of a
really and intrinsically
superior kind.
They represent the
finest work of the Ameri
can cabinetmaker.
They are here to sell
at 40 per cent less than
market values because
four of the best furniture
manufacturers in Amer
ica wanted a sudden out
let for their stocks-on-hand.
This is the Sale
