What a Difference Between
Men's $25 Suits This Year
and Last!
How much more closely woven, finer and more dur
able ure the materials in these suits! Last year these
qualities would have been half as much again.
Cheviots in gray and greenish mixtures and plenty
of the brown tones that are so popular, some with over
plaids or stripes. All of the suits are semi-conservative
and most of them the sort that younger men like.
They fit the momnt you put them on and, because
they are tailored that way, not merely pressed, they
will fit to the last.
