came in Saturday

Here is something which could be
achieved only by custom tailor, and
only by custom tailor organized in a
simple, large establishment, as we are.
Cheviots and worsteds are having big
run this year.
Many of the best patterns were woven
by certain American Mill. November
10th found it with some full and half
pieces still on hand, enough to make
2o7 suits.
It's end-of-season for the mill,-but mid
dle-season for us. So we took them all.
The suitings came in Saturday. They
are remarkable quality of pure virgin
wool. The weights are fine for winter
wear. The variety will please almost
every taste.
Men are paying 500 and more for these
materials, all over town. The price we
paid enables us to offer them at $40
And that means tailored to order, in the
best custom way. Come in promptly, to
get the choicest pieces.
