War times mean times o* economy. There is no use to “Hooverize” at the table unless you “Hooverize” in all other departments
of the family’s needs. The government wants you to economize, but this does not mean that you are to go without the essentials of life.
You have got to wear clothes. The best way to economize in this line is by buying GOOD CLOTHES at the most REASONABLE price.
You will find in our store one of the most complete line of SERVICEABLE goods ever offered to a buying public, and the prices are
just as low as can possibly be made in keeping with the times. We bought our stock of goods for this season before the prices took the
second advance, and we propose to give you the benefit of this. Our goods are arriving all the time. We have just received a BIG ship-
ment and want you to come round and look the stock over. We know we can please you, and we have clerks who will take delight in
showing you the stock and giving you prices. Here are a few of the many things you will find in our store.
