Sec | Our Sreat Sale of Wen’s Spring Suits is the talk of the city. More than that—it’s the talk of a hundred places within a hundred miles from New York, everybody recognizing in this merchandise movement the opportunity of the year—the greatest oppor- tunity any clothing store in New York has presented for many a month. We started in with the 2,500 suits we closed out trom a Boston manufacturer, but that lot has been sold out quickly. Other manufacturers, hearing of the success of the sale and being also greatly overstocked, came swooping down on us with big lots and little lots of merchandise, and we bought everything that was offered us—provided the goods were right and the prices were tempting enough. = And. so the sale, instead of diminishing, is growing larger, broader, more im. portant and more remarkable.
