Master of the Situation When youenteracloth- ing shop impressed with the advantages of a Stein- Bloch summer suit, you will encounter a salesman who has made a study of clothes—and men. If it be a store where the Stein-Bloch clothes are sold, he will fit you and fit you properly. rf it is not such a store and you are not master of the situation, ke will be. He knows the esteem n which Stein-Bloch clothes are held, but it is his legitimate purpose to sell the clothes he has for sale. With his art of per- suasion he may influence you to purchase some other kind and then, b actual comparison wit Stein-Blochr clothes, you see the difference in cloth, in style, in fit and in wear and realize too late what you have missed. You insist upon seeing the label at your grocer’s or your tobacconist's— why not in your clothes? Stein-Bloch clothes are sold atyour bestclothiers’. If not, send to us for “ Smartness.
