"Dry Goods Store"
OYerCOatS

COME clothiers profess to believe that
y our Clothing Store cannot sell good
clothing, because it's one of the adjuncs Of
dry goods store. Singular reasoning!
Why should not the methods that make this
the best of dry goods stores, make on,
clothing store the best of clothing storesl
The argument need not be driven home,
however, for, so far as the public is con.
cerned, the matter appears to be satisfactorily
settled, Take top coats, for instance.
Most men "look around " good deal be-
fore buying. Many look over ours, and 80
away to look elsewhere. They usually come
back. and most of them make comments.
If we should print all the good things that
critical men have said of our styles and
prices, there would be room for nothing else
in this column.
We cannot claim any monopoly Of good
styles, of course. Clothing quite as good
as ours is on sale elsewhere. But not at
ouy pyiees There's the point. If you are
interested, test us by these:
AT SlO-Oxford-mix worsted, lined with Italian
CLOTH satin sleeve Innings.
Atsl2-Tn rough black cheviot and coverts in new
shades; silk lined throughout.
At Sl3 50-A shade covert, just in; silk lined;
