Bring this Ad. along? it is worth $1.00 on a $10.00 Purchase.
I bought
A $20 Suit for $7.50
This was a Colorado Clothing company leader. It
was made for this concern by a prominent Eastern
manufacturer to be sold at a bargain at $20. We
bought the stock so cheap that we can afford our prices
and yet have a nice little profit, left. No merchant in
this country over before sold such suits at this figure.
And there is not another store who can sell their equal
for even $20.
A $30 Suit for $10
Elegant, up-to-date, tailor-made beauties. The
very latest summer styles, including the new English
frock, the swell 2 and 3-button double-breasted gar
ments now the rage among society men of New York,
and Boston. In shapes, makes, cloths and cuts the
variety covers every popular effort in the United States
Every piece is sewed with silk, lined with serge and
satin, and the collar and button holes are hand made,
so that fraying .out will be impossible. This is the
swellest Suit ever shown in this city.
$25 Outing Suit for $10
We received in our consignment from Cripple Creek
and Victor 1,000 exquisitely tailored Outing Suits made
to sell by the Colorado Clothing company at $20.00,
$22.50 and $23. These garments are the finest im
ported Irish homespuns, Ballyho and Scotch Tweeds,
perfect in fit and. beautiful in coloring. In Portland
these garments have usually sold at not less than $20
in any cfise,"nnd 'some merchants have asked $3o for
the kind that we sell for $10.
A $11.50 Suit for $5.95
This i an all-wool fabric, band-tailored and sewed with best silk thread
cut In latest stvle of sack and frock, and worth every cent of the $10 and
$11.50 at which the garments gotd for at Cripple Creek and Denver. No
other clothing bouse Id the city can touch these suite at leas than double
the price we ask for them.
$7.45 for a $17.50 All-Wool Suit
$7.45 gives the buyer pick and chnloe of all these haudsomu man-tull-ored
$12, $15 and $17 .60 all-wool BUlts In light, medium and heavy weight.
They are dressy aa they can be, worth every penny they sold for In Col
orado, and cannot be duplicated anywhere at double the prices we ask.
$9.95 for $20 to $30 Garments
$9.95 takes pick aud choice of the finest tnilor-ninde suits of Imported
cloths, in black clay worsteds, unfinished worsted, serges, vicunas, tweed
aud Oxford mixtures. In fact, every known weave of cloth and cut of gar
ment, the most fastidious votaries of fashion ever knew. No man wns ever
so rich that he need be ashamed to wear these clothes. We would like to
see tbeni upon the baoks of some of llood River's most stylish young men.
If they tola where they procured them and the price they paid, no further
advertisement would lie necettsary to speedily clean up this lot.
