EVERYDAY UTILITY
The average man buying a suit
of clothes is all at sea. Perhaps
he knows a little about the goods.
He must depend upon the man
that sells him the article. Here
is the moral: BUY WHERE YOU
CAN PLACE YOUR CONFID
ENCE. We want you to come
here with the confidence that you
can depend upon the quality of
our goods and what we say
about it.
