Druggists A -Man's a ‘Befter Man for All These! WORSTED-TEX SUIT 37.50 The British Lounge V-8 is an authentic London idea . . . as British as Piccadilly. It carries out—with needled artistry—the well-dressed Englishman’s conception of a shapely line combined with utter comfort. This model renders the most flattering service to your figure. None of us are Apollos or All-American half- backs. We all have our little bumps and hollows. The British Lounge V-8 rectifies what nature neglected. Without a trace of exaggeration, it provides you with seemingly broad shoulders and a slender waistline. It adds phantom inches to your height by virtue of the longer jacket and lower waistline. Only at The Hecht Co. in Washington will you find the British Lounge V-8.
