The subject of Oyercoats IS a mighty season.
able subject ust now. Make ur your mind
that winter weather is with us or the season.
Oyercoats are a necessity, and the man who
needs an oyergarment viii study his interest
by making his selection at our Store. There's
nothing cheaper than "chin music Some
concerns deal more extensively in "big talk
and 'bluster" than they do in merchandise
but here at our Store we make our goods and
low prices do all the talking necessary to salts

There's No Question AJout Ii.
We not only claim to have but positively
show upon our counters three times as many
Overcoats as can be seen in any other store in
Chaylestown. As sensible merchants we
wouldn't make such statement openly unless
we could satisfactorily convince everybody Of
its literal truth Not only is our stock larger,
better and greater in variety, but our low
prices are the subject Of envy among the
shops that attempt to compete with rs.
