To Break the Backbone of High Prices--- and at least to try to do something for our good customers to help them. bear the excessive burdens of today— These Are the Only Reasons for Putting at the Disposal of the Men and Boys of Seattle Half a Million Dollars’ Worth of High Grade Clothing and Hats at a Straight 20% Reduction From the Already Rock Bottom Prices Which Are Marked Right on the Goods THE FACTS AS TO THE PAST— During the eight years we have been in business the people of Seattle have donewell by us, and certain principles have guided fis from the first, principles from which we have never deviated. 4 ; 1. The men of Seattle have found that we dealt only in reliable goods, well chosen and justly priced, and that we could be depended upon in every transaction. 2. We have never at any time held a “Sale,” the marking of our clothing at the lowest possible margin of profit making a “Reduction Sale” an impossibility. , 3. We have never marked up over-values on tickets to create mark-downs, and we never will. 4.. We have never at any time indulged in ‘any exaggerated statements in any of our advertising. ‘THE FACTS AS TO THE PRESENT— At this particular moment, when the highest financial authorities point out the probability of still higher prices, and when we ourselves have actually been quoted prices on Fall Goods which are HIGHER than the selling prices marked on the garments right on our own floor—we feel it incumbent upon Us to join in the movement with John Wanamaket and other great merchants in the East to create a Breakwater against the higher wave of costs said to be still rising to submerge the people by increasing their burdens. . NO ‘RESERVATIONS. Men’s Suits and Overcoats—Boys’ Suits and Overcoats Men’s and Boys’ Hats and Caps---Little Boys’ Fancy Suits and Wash Suits are all offered at a sweeping 20% REDUCTION and this reduction means that hundreds and hundreds of high-grade Suits and Overcoats will be sold at considerably below cost, and so far below present prevailing prices that comparison is simply out of the question.
