FATHER’S ERROR “1 MWked that young fellow you were with the other night, so I asked him to dinner this evening, Told him to drop around in his business clothes.” “Oh, father! Ho's a life-guard.'— Judge. of the F-B Clothing Service pivot on Quick Turnover, making it possible for us to guarantee a saving of $10 at least on every garment we sell. What You Get for Your Money Third and Pike SEATTLE r Fahey-Brockman Building When you buy a good suit or a good overcoat at the average clothing store you pay for many incidental charges that are tacked on to the garment between the maker and you. The Fahey- Brockman Clothing Service eliminates most of these charges and reduces the rest of them to a minimum. For instance—it costs the Master Tailors of America real money to sell their merchandise to the average retailer. The road- man is a genial fellow. He exacts a commission of 74 to 10%. That’s not much on a small bill of goods but it runs up to an imposing fig- ure on a million and a half dollars’ worth of merchandise a year. We save all that and more. Because our buyer goes direct to the maker and insists on quantity discounts commensurate with our enormous volume. Frequently these discounts more than meet our cost of doing business. Hence you see quality clothes for men and young men in Fahey-Brockman windows at a price no competition can touch. Low Overhead Spells High Values But—we’re not contented with sweeping aside all charges between maker and ourselves. We have per- fected one of the most economic retail clothing services for men and young men in America. Operating upstairs we effect a rental saving of $50,000 a year. Selling for cash we've no credit losses. Turning our stock fast reduces our capital investment to a minimum and keeps our salesmen on their toes every hour in every day. The thrifty buyer likes to dwell on these points! He sees that there is no idling in a Fahey-Brockman store. He knows that we can operate on about a third of the capital of any competitor doing the same annual business—because we turn our stock AHEY- Buy up-stairs at least three times to his one. Idle money and idle men along with high rental charges constitute the high cost of merchandising. And that’s the nut the Fahey-Brockman system was de- signed to crack. Fit and Style Guaranteed We are now showing a great variety of Fall and Winter Models—all the last word in style—expressed di- rect from the makers. Men’s staple suits galore—slims and stouts as well as young men’s snappy models. We have the suit, overcoat or raincoat you want at a guaranteed saving of ten dollars. Come on in and let’s show you! Guaranteed Values Same Prices The F-B Stores are stocked with a larger variety of new suits and overcoats than ever before: —more fine woolens —more rich patterns —more new models —more smart styles all direct from New York. Sold at the same standard prices—carry- ing the same saving of $10 at least—backed by | the same guarantee and followed with the same Raleigh Building ~ Sixth and Washington PORTLAND
