This Clothing Stere has been ry successful, largely because of our
policy of carrying very large stocks and great variety keeping constantly
busy by having what is ivanlcd ichni it in wanted, and at the right price.
But new comes the time te make a radical sacrifice of profit te insure an
immediate reduction of stocks en hand.
THIS IS IMPORTANT Te men who have believed that Clothing
prices should have been lower this season, we state very positively that our
prices have been as low as they could be in the regular, safe course of busi
nessand there is no sign whatever that they will be lower this spring, or
even next autumn. But the necessity for a QUICK REDUCTION OF
STOCKS makes a SACRIFICE OF PROFIT unavoidable new, ajid when
you see the following groups of Suits and Overcoats, we knew you will
