IMMENSE CLOTHING
SALE IN PROGRESS
At GROSNER'S
Factory Outlet of Kuppenheimer
Suits Finding Ready Response
In Washington Buyers.
GREAT MONEY
SAVING OPPORTUNITY
Sale Represents Greatest Values
Ever Seen Here.

The remarkable sacrifice sale Of Kup-
penheimer high-grade mems suits now
in progress at Grosner's, 1913 Pennsyl-
vania Ave, Is becoming the talk Of the
town. Men from all parts of the city
are hurrying to Grosners store to get
their summer suits at this great money
saving sale. So great has been the
rush for these suits that the firm found
1t necessary to add several clerks to its
force this week, which will insure
speedier service during the remainder
Of the sale.
Kuppenheimer suits are known the
world over as the finest examples of
tailoring art. You can get no better
suits at any price than those manufac-
tured by Kuppenheimer.
When the time came for this house to
clean out its surplus summer stock,
Grosner was on the job and landed the
gigantic sale at his price. These IA
nous suits will be sold without reserve
at Grosner's store for about one-half
the regular factory price. There are a
and styles and every suit sold at this
sale bears the same guarantee of salts
faction Grosner gives with everything
he sells. The price is the only thing
that's cut down in this sale and that
Is cut to an almost unbelievable low
figure. These great values can not last
long and there probably will not be
enough suits to supply all of the eager
buyers who want to get theirs at this
sale. In order to have your pick you
had better lose no time in getting to the
store. Good things do not last long, and
This sale Is no exception to the rule.
The best goes to the first comers and
none will be reserved.
