Mr.. Mccall explained that the Inter-

Our normal sales are $3.50

the other 1870 or 1870 are
swept out in a special suit

clear the decks for a COM

This is literally true as re-
CARDS the Spring suits of last
year. Added to these are
many Winter suits that have
had their day.
But not all our Winter
goods have completed their
normal selling season. We
must serve our trade at all
seasons, and even now with
many Winter overcoats and
