Why not buy your as this week. Lots of Men, in Buying Clothes are, not half particular enough about quality; they'll buy al most anything that looks stylish and fits if the price is low. It's the wrong way to buy clothes. We hope you don't buy yours that way. The right way is to be sure first of the quality you are getting. Is it all wool? Is it well tailored? A price means nothing unless you know what you are getting for it. In this store we want you to know what you are getting for jrour money; we're not afraid to tell you, either. Ask if the goods are all wool; ask if they are tailored right; ask about style; wear; try the clothes on. But if you see the Hart, Shaffner & Marx label in the clothes, just consider it an an swer to your question; all wool; clean, honest tailoring; correct style; wear; price will be right. f" Pay $3.50 or $4.00 for when you can buy a "Oor- $-00.
