A Boy Clothed for s1.5l.

Our bright contemporary, the E7eaing
SIM relates that one gifts newsbOys, a
lad of fourteen years Of age, was taken
to Bowery clothing store by a gentle
man Who wanted to see how cheaply a
how could be clothed, and was fitted out
from head to foot for sI.5I. Here IS the
schedule Of items given Suit, 10 cents;
CAP. s cents; shoes, 49 cents; tie S cents;
stockings, 10 cents; total, $751;. The
moral with which this story Of cheap
prices is pointed is that in no other coun-
trv could lad be fitted out for so little
money. and the prices are one Of the re-
suits Of competition among manuiactur-
ers originally encouraged and always
fostered bv Protection in the Tariff laws.

for her. Maybe some friend

We write not for her but
for the quick wits OF DANES and
