Today, any man who hasn’t two or three such Suits avail- able for hot days, isn't properly equipped for Summer. This “thin-clothes-idea” isn’t just a fad; or a mere passing style, either. It's good sound sense to wear what's appropriate and comfortable for the weather of the day; millions of men are finding it out; and these feather- weight Suits you see everyone wear- ing, are the answer. When you buy them, remember this. They're not all alike. A good many such Suits are made to sell at a price. You can’t expect good fit, style or laundering qualities unless you pay a fair price. You can get good ones here at $8 up; finely hand-tailored by Schloss Bros. & Co., just like the best ‘Woolen Suits; they're the Rind to buy. $7.50 to $16.50. 3 — e SEVERAL WILLS PROBATED.
