which we call rose by Gny other name
would smell as sweet" but when il
comes TO business THE NAME Is
EVERYTHING! 1t makes or mars an
undertaking it means success or failure.
Thus, for instance, THE BOSTON'S
great offer TO sell any Mans Suit in their
stock for els is attracting hundreds Of
purchasers daily, while similar affairs
brought out by other dealers turned out
to be rank failures. But comparisons
are useless. Everybody knows when

for Fifteen Dollars they mean Just what
they say. There is no catch, trick, or
ambiguity in this. No niger in the

and in spirit. Tie many hundreds Of
gentlemen who have bought S2l, Sa6.
