OITRE going to have this coming fall, a chance to buy t id wear the best clotheS in the world; the kind of clothes
that well-dressed men ae always glad to buy-
!
Hart
Marx Clothes
are to be the feature of our lrne the coming season; and w) want every man of you to know it early, and keep it in
mind ifor the time when you next think of buying clothes. I
We are making a specialty of these goods because wrwaht you to get the greatest possible value for your money.
You want value; that's the only real way to economize in rlothes; and value means the sort of quality Hart Schaffner
& Marx put into their goods. They're all-wool, in every iread of the fabrics; they represent the products of the best
weavers in the world, and offer a greater variety for yow selection than you'll find in any half a dozen other makes
put together.
But all-wool, vitally important as it is to your interests as a warer, is not the only thing we know about Hart Schaffner & Marx quality.
These clothes are designed right; the whole question of fit depends on hat; and it's important to you to know that you can be correctly fitted
without trouble here. They're correct in style, of course; and perfectM tailored; these "makers know their business well enough not to spoil
good all-wool fabrics, fine linings and trimmings by designing and tailing that are wrong. Hart Schaffner & Marx are the best clothes makers
in the world; and every dollar of value they put into the goods is there fo you to get out in the wear.
There's a lot of inferior, cotton mixed clothing in the market; pret poor stuff, some of it. It looks pretty good; enough so to enable dealers
to charge a good price for it; it isn't as a rule worth what it costs.

before the committee, but this
proposition must be backed up
by pledges of money. We have

Prof. J. W. Hamilton in his

style followed with an appeal, i

Work for the Normal.
There is just a little time left
now until we will have the West
Texas Normal or else it will be
lost for all time to come. If you
believe we stand a chance of get-
ing it then make that chance
greater. If you don't think we
will get it then put down a large
donation, because in that event
you would not have to pay it.

New Meat Market.
Robt. Lunsford and S. L. Webb
are preparing to open a meat
market in Dr. Richardson's
building adjoining the Banner
office. They are tearing out the
partition and raising the ceiling
in order to give room for their
refrigerator. A complete outfit
has been ordered and in about
three weeks they will be ready
for business. These gentlemen
are old hands in their profession
and start this new enterprise
with firm belief in its success.
Their stand will be a desirable
one.
Browning & Co. has some odds
and ends in most all lines that
are being closed out at excep-
tionally low prices..
