As a matter of fact aud
common sense, it is a mistake
to pay a swell tailor $20 to
$35 for a Spring Suit. We'll
duplicate the cloth he uses
and charge you from $8 to
$15 tor exactly the same ma
terial. As far as fit and make
are concerned, we'll agree to
fit you as perfectly as any
body in Scranton. This may
sound like boasting, but it'9
true, nevertheless.
