A Lesson In
Men s
Clothing

Here is what the "Clothier and Fur
nisher"--the best authority in the country
on mems clothing to say in its
April issue;
"The general pros
porous condition of the
country in all branches
of business has caused
a great demand for all
kinds OF highclass cloth
ing. There is but little
sale Tor the cheaper
grades, a development
which has been gradual
for several years. Man
ufacturers of clothing
have been quick to take
advantage of this fea-
ture of the business,
and as a result the gar
ments that are now be-
ing manufactured rep
resent the highest per-
lection possible. The
suits and trousers are
we'll made, stylish in
appearance and will
give the wearer salts
faction in their wearing
qualities, and are the
equal in many respects
il not the superior, of
the tailor-made, as
turned out by any ex-
cept the highest grade
metropolitan tailors. -
This corroborates our assertion
by the best authority in the Unitec
States.
