Shaner & Wolff Clothing Service No “Special” Sale will be held by this store during the present sea- son. When the big stock we now have was re- ceived we marked our SUITS AND OVERCOATS at the lowest possible figures to allow only a legiti- mate profit to ourselves. and at the same time give the highest possible value to our customers. This policy assures you exceptionally attractive prices today in the face of a rising market. Prices on men’s clothing for the coming new sea- son will be from 20 to 80 per cent higher than at present. It is, therefore, imperative that if you wish to benefit financially in your clothing purchases you should buy at once. We desire to give you the ad- vantage of the old prices and seek to fulfill an ob- ligation to our customers by advising them of this opportunity. We invite the most critical inspection and com- parison of our merchandise. We sell only GOOD CLOTHING, the products of the best manufactur- ers of the nation.

Long established business relations with conscientious manufacturers whose reputation for integrity precludes even the slightest suspicion of profiteering at ublie expense, places us in a position to pack up the foregoing statement; enables us to protect our customers against ex- travagant profits. We believe it is purely a matter of good business judgment to hold prices within fair and reasonable limits. A personal inspection will prove our contention to be absolutely correct.
