signs on the market and our stock • represent the choicest goods to be obtain-
ed. For $1 we show all the latest patterns of the W. G. & R make which

We claim that our $7.50 suits .tqual anything offered at $10 00 by other people
The reason is simply this. We manufacture all our own goodsand you save the
middleman's profit.' On account of being -ih the wholesale clothing business we are
enabled to make many purchases of Tweeds direct from the mills thus effecting a big
saving. Then again weegive you a cut style and. nape equal to anything costing
double the money; shrewd buyers cannot afford to overlook the greatest suit ever
offered for the money in this section of the country.
