That is what the people say about our Mantle Prices, and
they're right. Do you want to buy a Jacket as cheap as you can,
or do you wish to give other merchants i• more than our prices ?
Most any person would feel badly over losinga dollar or two out of
theirP urse.between here and other stores, l?ut that is just what you
are going to doif you buy a Jacket elsewhere, and there's no doubt
about it. Probably you wonder how we know this. We know .it
because we know the prices other merchants have to pay the Can-
adian Wholesaler and Manufacturer, and the Agents for German
Manufacturers, and we know by buying direct from the Makers in
Berlin we can buy them 25 to 85 per cent. cheaper. We know all
this because we, have Been the Canadian Makers' goods and prices,
the samples shown by Agents of German Makers, and the prices
asked bythem and after seeing these_we have made special ar-
rangements with a large retail buyer of German Mantles, who,
when in Berlin, bought our Mantles for us, and you will find them
just as much cheaper as we claim.
