reason for his sails being damaged
considerably, reported that he han

Oil and w alter
Won't Mix

But quality and reason
able prices will. There's
proof of it here. Happens
often. A gentleman and his
wife were shopping for an
oyercoat. They had been to
other stores but foun d
nothing that would suit.
In passing they were at
tracted by one of our win
dows. Just the coat they
wanted. But were afraid
chat 1t was too high. How
ever, they came , the in
side for a closer investiga-
ton
Result: A satisfactory
purchase at just the price
they wanted to pay.
Don't ever be afraid to
come on the inside here, it's
a case of volume reducing
costs as usual. A business
as large as ours, may invari-
ably sell the best, yet sell at
prices that attract the man
of moderate means.
It's the same as always,
and we're glad it's SO; the
