Many people are under
the impression that low
prices make goods cheap,
but many have found out
to their sorrow just the
contrary. Low priced
Clothing is often the very
dearest a person can buy.
There is no style, no fit,
no comfort and very little
wear in them. We deal
in good Clothing, the best
to be found. We make
ours to wear and give
comfort and in the end to
be the cheapest to be
found. We know it, and
when you buy them you'll
know it.
Just now we are closing
