WANAMAKER'S
The Day and the Suits for
Men

Psychology may have something
to do with making Saturday a mems
clothing day, but convenience has
more.
How much psychology may have
to do with the choosing of mans
suit we don't know, but we are con-
vinced that good, practical, common
sense should have vast deal to do
with it.
So far as good, practical, common
sense enters into the question, any
man must understand that good suits
can only be made from good woolen
fabrics, well tailored.
The Wanamaker stock of mems
clothing represents an effort to
assemble suits that embody the best
woolen fabrics and the best tailor
work available in this country.
Mems suits, $35 to S65.
Youths suits, $25 to $40.
