WHAT SHALL I BUY?
That's tlie question thatls puzzling hundreds
of our young men today, Spring Clothing. A
word to you who have been patronizing the cheap
merchant tailor. He may be sincere in telling
yon how cheap he is selling you your clothes. But
did you ever stop to think of the disadvantages he
labors under? Buying cloth in small quantities
from iobbers who must have a profit. Paying, as
he must, several profits on trimmings, etc. No
wonder he can't compete with our ready-made
clothing, made by manufacturers who own their
own mills for making the cloth. Cut by the best
cutters, to whom they pay wages that no small
concern could stand for a minute. Designed by
experts who really make the style and shapes
your merchant tailor tries to imitate. They fit
right.too, because the first-class ready made cloth
ing of today is cut on proper lines. It isn't the
tape measure that makes the fit; remember that.
le.t us try to fit you, We'll succeed if you're not
positively deformed. Special suits for slim and
stout people, spring clothing is here and on show.
OUR $15.00 SUIT .
Here's a suit to set you thinking, you who
want good clothes. Nof the cheapest in the store.
High grade goods such as your tailor sells you
at a bargain (?) for $25.00. All the popular shades
of brown in checks and plaids. Best of trim
mings. Suits that look right, set right and wear
right. Stop in and have a look at 'em today.
OUR $16.00 OVERCOAT.
The English Box. This is the proper thing
for well dressed men this spring. Benjamin Box
coats, short and natty. In wood colors, silk lined.
This we quote for style, not as an example of our
cheapest coat. E)qual to anything your tailor
shows you for $25.00. Yet these are only $16.
