If you feel that your clothes—to satisfy you completely, must be made to
• order. We have a Made-to-order Department in connection with our Men's Store.
You can choose your cloth from many beautiful patterns and fabrics, anck your clothes
will be made to your measure with every detail as you may fancy. They will be finish
' ed for delivery when you want them, and are guaranteed to satisfy you in every par-
ticular.. The costof made-to•order clothing is but slightly higher than for a good
ready-to-wear.
'`Don't be satisfied with mere stylish looks alone. for if the quality, of materials
and workmanship is not there—good looks will not last very long.
!Own' Made-torder (lothgng
is known all over this part of the country for its holiest qualities in the hidden
+ details of clothes making—the details on the honesty of which the very life of your .:
clotliing depends, Reliable materials, all wool, careful workmanship, canvas strength
i. ening, silk thread. in fact the dozen and one items which male BROWN'S CLOTHING
wear so much longer than any other kind.
Don't be fooled by a cheap price—good materials cost more than cheap ones—
'n•'a,nd must be sold at a reasonable price. Brown's Clothing is not the cheapest on
the market. On the other hand, it is not high in price considering the extra wear it
gives: whoever buys it.

In the closing hours of the Perlia
mentary session at Ottawa Hon. T.
\U Urothers, Minister of Labor, re
plying LO 0 question by Hon. Win.
Pugsley as to the work of the cammis
sion on the high cost of living, stated
that tee commission had taken evi
dence at various places in the country,
but one of the members of the cern
mission a few weeks ago was compels
ed to quit work on account of his
health In his enthusiatu he had over
worked himself, and his physician had
compelled him to take a rest
In reply to is further question as to
who this member of the commission
was, the Minister replied:
"Mr. Coats, one of the best men in
the service of the Government, an en
tbusiast, and highly skilled in the
gathering of statistics in fact, I do
not think he was an equal in Canada.
Re has been working at the report,
with the assistance of another gentle
man in the Labor Department, for
seven or eight months, lie was com
pelled about a month ago to take a
rest, but, in order to try and get the
report out while this House was in
session, he again took up the work
much sooner than he should have
done.,, I have gone over various por
tions of the report, and 1 promise the
House that it will be the best piece of
work of its kind eyer published; it
will be a classic, which will be read
by economists through the civilized
world, and which the people of Can
ada will be proud of, I think the
report will be published about the
middle of next month; that is the very
best Mr. Coats can do. However, ib
will be worth waiting tor, and 1 can
assure the members of this House that
when it is published we shall have the
best report on the question that has
ever been given to the public in this
or in. any other country':
Mr. Coats is a younger brother of
Mr. TG illiam Coats, the county regis.
