which never spoke but for truth, love,

children and God. A woman of such
prominence, intelligence, and possess

Strong, hearty and hopeful as is his
nature, he viii suffer in every fiber of

hey can say or do can put star in
lis night of sorrow. A heart as big as
lis bleods sorely when it is wounded.

BE Wise and Save Cash, and
PatrOnize the Misflt
Clothing ParlOrs.

The man who earAs big money anC
spends it as fast as he earns it is mo-
as well off at the end of the year a.
is the man who, while earning but Q
little, saves a portion of it.
Economy is the road to wealth
whether you earn little or much,
Economy is gift, and extravaganza
seems to be born in some people.
Economy is wise buying, and wise
buying is getting as much as possible
for your money.
It's economy to buy your Clothing
at the Misft Clothing Parlors, be-
cause you get there the finest Clothing
in the world for the least money.
It's economy to patronize the Mis-
fit Clothing Parlors, because while
prices are low the goods are of relia-
BILE cloth, something that will give
satisfactory and substantial wear.
It's economy to buy good Clothing
when you can get it at less price than
is usually asked for much inferior
goods.
Money is a blessing if you use it in
making yourself comfortable, and
the Misft Clothing Parlors will serve
you we'll and give you satisfaction.
Your time has come. A plain
warning to the residents of Mem
phis. Your time has come, but a
TIME FOR JOY instead of sorrow.
The Misft Clothing Parlors, 262

will give you the opportunity of get
ting Clothing at much less than the
actual cost.
