amount.

YOU SAVE THE PROFIT
From Factory to Wearei
Why do presidents, statesmen and
men of means have their clothes
made to measure?
Because made to measure clothes
areu nquestionably superior in every
respect. After all, it’s the fit that
counts, not only in the appearance
of the garment, bu in the comfort it
gives the wearer.
The big modern wholesale plants
of the Famous A Nash Co. have
brought fine quality made-to-measure
clothes right down within reach of
every man’s pocketbook.
Be individual, get that feeling of
confidence in yourself, in business and
social cativities —have your clothes
made to measure from the Golden
Rule line—A. NASH CO., Cincinnati.
