It is true that mems suits are much
better than they have been and their prices
much lower, but Just the same it is no less
suits are better than others.
Putting it another way, the betterment
in mems suit qualities and in mems suit
values means more in the Store that has
always stood for the best, and the .Wana-
maker Store has never stood and never can
stand for anything less.
Men who know much about suit quail
ties and suit prices will be satisfied to
know that the excellence of Wanamaker
suits is as real today as it has always been
II anything, it is greater than it has ever
been in comparison with any other ready
to-wear suits sold anywhere else for the
same prices-$32 to sos for regular STYLES
and $28 to $40 for suits specially modelled
for youths and young men.
1t is a stock of suits made from fresh
new fabrics and free from old, inferior
materials that became so common of late
years.
These are Wanamaker standard WOOL
ems, modelled and tailored in the Wana-
maker way.
No finer goods, no better tailoring. no
more correct fashions are known in the

There is such a splendid choice of fancy

HOW BIRDS USE THEIR BILLS

under water it cannot see what it
gets and must feel, instead.
So this bill is filled with nerves for
the purpose. 1t has row of little
points, too, all around the edge, some
thing like teeth. But how does che
duck use it? Let us see.
When searching for food, it thrusts
this bill down, and brings it UP full
of mud. Now, in the mud are the very
things the bird lives upon. These lit

HOW TO HAVE GOOD CITIZENS.

Out of good homes come good men.
And good men are always good citi-
zens, says the Catholic Standard and
Times They need no special training
in citizenship. A good home implants
tie social instinct and inculcates the
social virtues. Where we find good
and cheerful homes, social unrest does
not become acute and social discon-
tent does not embitter the soul and
infiame the passions. Bolshevism is
born in novels and in the vile slums
of back alleys.
Our attention must be more GEN.
tered upon the home. We have of
late given too much thought to educa-
ton and moral improvement by legis-
lation which neither educates nor i'm
proves. If the old-time home senti-
ment is revived, our national life will
be clean and sanity will prevail. No
one whose cradle was sheltered by
the roof of happy home, whose child
hood was frightened by the sunny at
lmosphere of contented family life
whose youth was surrounded by the
stern righteousness of good father
the gentle care of fond mother and
the love of brothers and sisters, will
ever raise his hand against society in
murderous envy or hateful revenge.
