We have come to the time when we can make clean
sweep of all the overcoats and ulsters in Mems Cloth
ing Store
This is the one important Winter sale of overcoats in
Philadelphia
Thousands of men have been watching for the
announcement of but there only about 1000 of the
coats
With little regard for their regular prices we have
marked reductions all the way from $40 to $5 and have
put the whole lot into three price groups
$50, $40 and $50
These are the lowest prices that have appeared this
season for overcoats of the quality of thesethe lowest
that may be seen in many day:
They are all-wool overcoats-every one of them: PIC
That means genuine warmth and genuine durability,
They are hand tailored overcoats:
That means shapeiness that will endure
They are ovecoas safe to buy noW to wear until the
robins sing and then to put away for next Winter when
they will be all ready, fine and new at far lower price
than next Winter is ever likely to see IT
There all sizes and all good fashions but the men
on hand first will have the most to pick from.

Enforcement of the state dog law
by the State Police, which is being
vigorously carried out. is expected to
have an important effect with regard
to the sheep-breeding industry of the
state. One objection to raising sheep
In this state has been the fact that
many valuable sheep were killed by
stray dogs. BY getting rid of these
savage dogs, 1t Is expected that en-
enlargement will be given to the

much as the sheep not only produce
meat and wool but are also a factor
In improving the fertility of the soil,
the fostering of this branch OF agri-

Owing to the fact that they have no

liminary TO the Fourth Annual Roll
Call of the Red Cross. which Will be
from ArmIstice Day, November H.,
through Thanksgiving Day, November
25 The national conference at Wash
inston will be a sort of aftermath
of the Roll Call, at which more plans

able them TO live longer and to have
happier, fuller lives.
DR.. f. A. Peterson. national direc-

perts can be impaired to the people
generally. and that this number VIII
be added to the succeeding genera
tions.
