Value in Clothes is best measured by the
way they hold their shape and the length of
time they wear satisfactorily.
Shape that is pressed in with an iron is
never permanent, the first weeks wear knocks
it out. In OUR clothes the shape is taOored
m while the suit is being made and is perma
nent, it lasts as long as the garment holds
together,
That combined with the high quality of
the material used is why OUR clothes are
such fiue values. They are without except
ion the best garments that you can buy for.
$15.00 ;to $25.00
Won’t you let us prove it?
WILL YOU BE ONE
We try to make satisfied customers as
they are our best advertisers.
Almost every sale we make, is the foun
dation for another.
Nearly every day someone tells us that
Mrs So and So had such a pretty piece of
jewelry and she liked it so well.
Certainly it came from here. We buy
the right goods, We sell them right. When
you buv at our store it means SATIS
FACTION.
We are human—we want YOU to our
chain of customer^. To sell you is to sell
your friends in the future.
