OUT OF MONEY BUT BOUGHT A NEW OVERCOAT JUST THE SAME The man we have in mind needed an Overcoat badly in fact, he had needed one badly for several weeks. But ho had many expenses to meet and post poned from week to week the purchase of a new Overcoat, finally concluding that he would have to do without It altogether at least for this Winter. But a. day or two ago ho heard of Cherry's plan, which is absolutely unique among clothing- stores. This concern is allowing men who can pre- . sent satisfactory credit referencaa to buy Suits and Overcoats WITHOUT MAKING A FIRST PAYMENT. Of course, a schedule of regular install ments is arranged, just as heretofore,' but the point to remember is the fact that you DON'T have to pay anything down when ymi make your purchase. Of course, this unprecedented offer will not continue indefinitely. The wise thing to do. if you need a Suit or Over coat, Is to make the best of the chance at once! The store is easily found at 389-391 Washington street Pittock Mock, right in the business canter. 6.(1 v.
