To do this it was quite natural for the President to gratify his advisers. The innumerable subjects and the seriousness and perplexities of existing conditions, as a whole, seem to be almost beyond the conceptions of an average human mind, but we have already been assured by the President in his inaugural that with the assist ance of his chosen fellow-laborers in the various departments of the Government, and with malice toward none and good will to all the world, they will address themselves diligently to meet the expectations of the public, relying upon the patience and helpfulness of the newspapers, speaking for their respective communities, for suggestions, fair judg ments and counsel, and upon their active efforts to sustain them in what shall be promptly and faithfully undertaken for the betterment of con ditions as rapidly as possible.

Putting it another way, the betterment in men's suit qualities: and in men's suit values means more in the Store that has always stood for the best, and the -Wanamaker Store has never stood and never can stand for anything less. Men who know much about suit quali ties and suit .prices will be satisfied to know that the excellence of Wanamaker suits is as real today as it has always been. If anything, it is greater than it has ever been in comparison with any other ready-to-wear suits sold anywhere else for the same prices 532 to $65 for regular styles and $28 to $40 for suits specially modeled for youths and young men. It is a stock of suits made from fresh, new fabrics and free from old, inferior materials that became so common of late years.
