Jacod Ritz, of No. 139 DeKalb ave- Herald Square No better comparison could we ask - than is afforded by Serge Suits for Men An ambitious amateur renders a musical composition ; the same song, note for note, is sung by a three-thousand-dollar- a-week virtuoso: you need not be a skilled musician to detect the difference. Every producer of apparel for men makes serge suits—every shop sells them. Ad- mitting the similarity of materials, the most unpractised eye can instantly detect the difference between perfect craftsman- ship and the lack of it. Our serges are good serges—we would use none other; but it is the tailoring and the elegance of design and details, that lifts the Saks serge above its fellows. And no matter how many other suits you possess, a serge suit is necessary to complete your wardrobe. Exceptional Values in Suits at $16.50 in a large variety of mixed fabrics. Serge Suits for Boys and Young Men (‘4 '°) $12.50 to $22 We single out serges because every shop shows them, and thus comparison is made easy. If you make the comparison, please note that good serge is always good serge—but the difference of tailoring is a difference worthy of consideration. Ours are created by skilled craftsmen who finish their work with an amount of care no other shop has ever seemed to think worth while.

Even in the smallest doses, if continued, these opiates cause changes in the funo- tions and growth of the cells which are likely to become permanent, causing imbecility, mental perversion, s craving for alcohol or narcotics in later life. Nervous diseases, such as intractable nervous dyspepsia and lack of staying wers are a result of dosing with opiates or narcotics to keep children quiet Fe their infancy. The rule among physicians is that children should never teceive opiates in the smallest doses for more than a day at a time, and only then if unavoidable. The administration of Anodynes, Drops, Cordials, Soothing Syrups and other narcotics to children by any but a physician cannot be too strongly decried, and the druggist should not be a party to it. Children who are ill need the attention of a physician, and it is nothing less than a crime to dose them willfully with narcoti ics, Gude jenna Be paroose if it bears the CME signature o! as. H.
