Three Ways To Buy Clothes
You buy your clothes In one of three
ways. Which do you think lg the beet
way?
1. You may go to a custom tailor
and have them "made to order." You
have delays; "try-ons." You don't
know what you're going to get; and If
V''b a cheap tailor you don't get
very much.
2. You may pick out a piece of cloth
from a book of samples; send your
specifications away somewhere and
wait. If the suit "makes up" as you
expected, if it is trimmed as you
hoped, if it fits as you want it to, you
are lucky.
3. You may come to us for
HART SCHAFFNER & MARX
CLOTHES
See them ready, not merely a piece
of cloth; see how they look on you,
not in an illustration or on a dummy
figure; see the linings and trimmings,
noj merely words about them; see
how the suit fits before you buy, not
after; see if it is becoming to you,
not just guess at it; and take only a
few minutes of your time.
This third way is right; you pay
less than in 1; and get more value
than in 2. A8 a demonstration of it
