Nene of them is worth less than double. The large majority is worth mere than
double some three and four times as much.
The story of their purchase is simply that a large importing manufacturer had mere
than a thousand odds and ends of sweaters and wanted te sell them out at one clip because
he was moving his factory. The price finally established was se low that we think the
sweaters will sell out .almost before the day is out. Wait until you see them !
