It isn’t a difficult matter to
to select your Spring Suit here.
The best makes are shown
in this store and it becomes,
therefore, merely a, matter of
taste with you.

operations to any one * class.

greatness.

suits now on display tells the
.story of this store's supremacy
better than words.
A pleasing feature of' oof
display of new suits-is the*
