pUTTING your money into the
clothes we are offering now at
special sale is just as good a'place as
yon can find for it. The difference
between present prices and what the
clothes sell for regularly is a bigger
rate of interest than you can get
other ways. Just think of buying

add at least one summer weight suit
on such a chance.
The amount you have, to
very small compared to the
of satisfaction you’ll get out
clothes. We are able'to fit your taste
in fabrics and styles; the sooner you
come the easier this will be.
