for a cheap suit and in order to accom-
modate our customers had to put in a

purpose making any more profit on
these than will pay the freight, as it is
a sideline out .tif the ordinary run of
our trade. . .
The first price k_45 for a Man's Suit,
generally sold at $7.
The second price is $5 50. This suit
would be cheap enough at $7.50. -
The third price $7. This suit is made
out of all wool Halifax Tweed and will
