A Superb Array of Suits
At $25.00 Each See Window
Chic, clever Costumes Creations that completely captivate.
Strikingly stylish Suits for a surprisingly small sum. We've
provided a wonderfully complete assortment of Suits and
marked them at a price that experience has taught us is the
most popular we could name. The values are really marvel
ous. We've sought diligently and carefully to secure such
stunning Costumes to offer you for so little money. It means
a sacrifice of profit we really should have; it means to sell
at a margin small indeed. Most of these are in the jaunty
short jacket models with long or A-length sleeve; smart tail
ored effects predominate, but a few are charmingly trimmed
with braid, buttons and silk facing. The fabrics are fancy
striped and plaid effects or solid colors: browns, grays, blues,
blacks, etc. Under ordinary conditions these Suits would be
considered good values at $35 each, some would be marked
even higher. See the window and come
to inspect these incomparable values

or a look over the lines we carry, will convince any shoe buyer that the best
lasts and styles are to be found in this store. Shoes for the extreme or the
conservative taste, oxfords cut on the most approved lasts for Spring, here
