Will find a large advertisement of
the A. B. Ki-schbaum clothing. This
is a separate advertisement from our
regular ad. This Kirschbaum ad will
run for seven issues, but will be an
entire change each week. Take a
look at these advertisements, each
one will have an interesting illustra-
ton.
The stores that are we'll establish
ed and have a future outlook of per-
manency are the ones that are occu-
pying a position to be of service to
you, in securing the most desirable
merchandise at the lower prices. The
reason of this is that merchandise is
very scarce and hard to get and the
manufacturers are taking care of
their better accounts and the ones
that can do them good in the future.
We have been dealing with some of
our wholesale people for over thirty
years, and looks as if we were a per-
manent fixture, so we are enjoying
this advantage and are passing the
same on to cur customers.
