Turkey and Good Clothes
Both Are Very Interesting
Just at This Time
You'll admit that we're justified in saying our assort
ment of good clothes is the largest, and we honestly believe
the best, in this city. We've done our share in making it
so. You've done yours by hearty appreciation and co-operation
made it possible to produce the best at prices that are
consistent. The volume of business done in every depart
ment of this store has won the prompt attention of the best
manufacturers. This has been proved by the well known style of
our Ready-to-Wear Clothes. Just now we are showing some me
dium length full Box Overcoats. They only arrived from the tail
ors this week. Should have been here ten days ago, but our way
of construction takes a little longer, so we can't complain. You can
see them displayed in our show windows. Also many new Suit
patterns. The prices for such style and (Mfl (MJ CA dr d0
cloth quality should be interesting to you l"I9U),pu)$,pI0
Hats That Are Popular
Were you ever among the young men who congregate in our
large Furnishing Department ? Some come to buy; some don't.
Just come in to find out what's new. In our Hat Department this
week we are showing some styles you haven't seen at
$2 and $2.50

Suits
For the Boy
We are justly proud of the ar
tistic side of our Boys' Suits for this
Fall season, but we do not by any
means ask you to believe that we
have reached our goal of perfection.
We have only done our best for
this season. Improved wherever
possible; in some the tailoring in
others the style. Such clothes are
satisfying to the boy and to you.

Overcoats
For the Boy
This season our Boys' Over
coats are easily detected among
pother makes. "The Military Hood"
p and many other novel designs have
been most popular. Some are made
in grey, others in blue cadet cloth,
with double rows of brass military
buttons. It's quite a pleasure to
show you how the boy looks in such
coats. Many others at different
prices.
