Few Reasons For it.

The great success and steady advance
ment of our garment department to its present
proportions and high standing has not been
Z gained by mere chance. Constant and pre-
sistent attention to every slight detail has
brought about the recognized pre-eminence of
our garment business. Each season finds us
extending the limits of clientele. If not al
ready acquainted with us in these lines, resolve
to be for the following reasons:
l. We begin every season with an en-
tire new stock.
2. Every garment we show is made to
our order and styles are confined to us in this
market.
8. In all of our better grades we buy
only one of a style and c~oloring which we will
not duplicate.
4. We use only garments made by the
best tailors and produced under perfect sani-
tary conditions.
5. We see to it by carefulness in buying
that everything in the way OF style, quality
and workmanship is f~rst-class.
6. Our selling force is careful and pains
taking and take pleasure in showing whether
or not you buy.

chosen as can be found in the largest cities.

thoroughly competent people who understand
their business.
9. We make no charges for needed gar
ment alterations. This item alone is a great
saving.
10. Our prices are guaranteed to be as
low as is consistent with qualities that we
show.
