Suits.
A Big Good
Bargain.

In the wake of a busy
season comes an oppor-

tempting it needs but
brief mention.
From the large lot of
suits that the height of
the season brought, there
now remain but a few.
Yet this few is too many
and we have set: out to
get rid of the entire lot.
There are suits of voille
and cheviot and broad
cloth. The colors are
mostly black and blue
the best and most SER
vieeable of colors. Sizes
are broken "a 81 in one
style and a SO in another
for example) but all sizes
are included in some style
and price.
On the average each
suit is worth half more
than to-day's selling
price. In exact figures,
values are Sis to $50;
prices are:
