GOLDEN CHANCES TO BUY.
Concessions That Collins and Hackett
Make to the Public.

Whatever else the fall and winter
of 1894 may have in store for you it
certainly offers the golden opportunity
to buy the very best clothing cheap.
We enter the season with q line of at
fractions that will command the re-
spect and admiration of all on account
of their elegance, style and quality, and
offer them at prices lower than you
have ever before enjoyed for goods
of equal merit and worth. Business
depression has made dollars assume the
, size of cart wheels in the eyes of jobbers
and manufacturers and they have been
willing to make any concessions in rea-
son to exchange their merchandise for
cash.
The careful and experienced buyer
has been able to make much of these
unusual conditions and the result Is
that we now have on hand stock of
fresh seasonable goods that is a perfect
marvel in values for the money 1t has
cost.
We. like the jobbers, however, find
| IL wisdom to offer extra concessions to
secure trade, and they will be made on
so broad and generous scale as to
| compel trade to seek us out. We are Of
| fering such inducements that the public
cannot and will not pass them by un-
needed. Our stock has been purchased
at Unprecedented concessions in price;
to this we add the closest possible mar
gins upon which our business can be
| conducted, and offer you the opportun-
| ity of a lifetime.
| We now have special for business
suits, fine imported unfinished worsteds
| in colors, black and blue, single and
double-breasted, for only $15. Ask to
see them. Our line of genuine clay
worsted suits for $3.50 we shall keep
| full always; they are trade winners.
we have better ones at $12, SIS and SIS;
also fine imported fancy worsteds,
cheviots and Scotch tweeds at SIS, $lS,
$40 and $25. In fact we have the best
ready-made clothing in Scranton, and
defy competition as to quality and
price. Asking for your patronage, on
the promise that you will certainly be
benefited thereby, we remain very
| truly yours,
