Doubling Your Money

Is profitable business. We don't claim to sell the same quality of goods as our competitors for one half their prices, but We do claim to sell better goods for the same prices that you will pay for poorer quality elsewhere. Even competi- tors acknowledge that we keep the very best ready made clothing. Don't take their word, just look for yourself. Take our clothing home, examine it carefully, if you are not convinced that it is cheaper than goods you can buy elsewhere bring it back and get your money. No.h- ing less than $1O in Mems Suits. Nothing less than $S in Spring Overcoats. Boys Suits from $1 upwards. We don't keep cheap goods, we don't think they are economical for any man to wear, but we do sell RIGHTLY MADE Clothing cheap.

don't buy things you can'tpay for ,
And of all manner of debtors, pious
people building churches they can't
pay for are the most detestible non

pray behind the hedges-or in a

of all manner of churches thus idi-

damnablest to me. And of all the
