Now for Overcoats! - We are out of luck—have talked overcoats for the past few days and the weather has been scorching. Of course, hot weather drives all thought of an overcoat out of your head, but don’t let this influence you to the extent of waiting too long—remember, the first always get the choicest from which to make a selection. If precept can be counted on, in the next few days the weather will be cold and foggy and you will need an overcoat. Now’s the time to buy a fall overcoat, anyway. 1 Our fall line of ‘‘Yeargood’’ overcoats include cheviots, kerseys, coverts, meltons and oxfords, in all shades, for $12.50 up to $25.00. Now, our prices are reasonable in the extreme, and besides a low price you get a year’s protection: Money returned if you don’t want to keep the overcoat, and a year’s repairing free if you do. We have an elegant line of Prince Alberts, ail silk lined and made of imported vicuna—fit like custom-made garments. We wish you would ask to see them. Boys’ Middy Suits, in blue and mixtures, some with large sailor collars, others with the short collars and silk-faced lapels ; ages 3 to 10 years; an ex:ellent value for $2.75 a suit.
