Because we make honest clothes and
put as much style on the garments as the
merchant tailOrs do, and retail them at
wholesale prices. Furthermore, if Gus

don't like the clothes he bought of US he
can bring them right back and exchange,
or get his money back again, and nobody
complains. If the clothes are right the
men and boys who wear the garments
will be apt to give us enough business to
keep US growing. Won't they? We have
the best retail stock Of Mems, Youths
