More than one-half of our second floor is devoted to their display and the prices we have marked them at were never known in the history of the trade. We are showing boys’ suits, at $1.60 that our competitors say are cheap at $3.00. They are strong and nice winter suits, plaited and well For $2.25 we have a splendid fancy cheviot suit, elegantly made up, which would be cheap at $4.50. But the greatest ofall bargains is our all wool cassimere suit at $2.50. Thisis beyond a doubt as good a suit as was ever offered at double this price. We placed 250 of them on our counters last week and had to telegraph for more. We have again all sizes. In finer grades we show a large variety of silk mixed cassimere chev- iots and worsteds elegantly trimmed and made. Boys'’ overcoats we offer from $1.35 for as good a coat as you can buy elsewhere for $3.00 up to the finest grades of chinchillas and cassi- meres, which, in style and make, are the product of the most skillful and artistic cutters and tailors. All goods marked in plain figures and at strictly one price. L Nebraska Clothing Co., Corner Douglas and 14th, Streets, Omaha.
