It's all right; a good appearance means a lot to a young fellow sometimes : may even be his chief asset; it pays to look well. We make a specialty of young men" clothes; styles that have snap and "go" in them; the ultra-fashions sought for by thousands of young men who cannot or will not pay ihe exclusive tailor's prices, and are smart enongh to Isee that Hart SchaSner & TNJarx clothes are next best. Go to almost any college town, where young men gather; where they are their own severest clothes-critics; you'll find Hart Scbaffner & Marx "Varsity " and other young men's Btyles the ruling favorites. A better test of clothes-popularity is impossible. Good clothiers everywhere sell these goods; they're as good clothes as they look. The label H S & M is a sign of genuineness.
