HONEST CLOTHING
IF YOU INTEND TO BUY CLOTH
ING, BE SURE AND READ THIS.

Honest Clothing is that which is cut
full size, will measure just what it is
marked, and is trimmed to correspond
with the outside material-that is, the
Innings will wear as long as any part of
the garment; it will fit, for it is cut from
patterns which have been thoroughly
tested. Now, this Is the kind of cloth
ing we have to offer, We never buy job
lots; we never buy from any but reliable
manufacturers. Clothing has standard
value in the market,-no one can buy
gold dollars for less than their actual
market value. Now, as to our prices on
clothing, we sell strictly for cash; we
take no risk and from these facts we
can, and do. sell cur goods for less
money than they can be sold under the
old trust system. Everybody who buys
of us makes big interest on his money,
for our goods are of the best makes, and
sold at a small profit. All this talk goes
for nothing, however, If we don't satis-
factorily prove to our customers that we
do exactly what we advertise. To dc
this we would urge our patrons to com
pare ours with any prices they can get
We are bound to be the lowest.
