AGAIN—TREMENDOUS REDUCTIONS IN THIS LOW PRICE SPRING CATALOG! Encouraged by the great success of our last Fall Catalog, we have made even greater reductions this spring! $20 VALUES OF LAST SPRING NOW ONLY $10.00! Owing to disturbed market conditions and need of cash, cloth manufacturers have reduced their stocks and sacrificed them below the actual cost of production! We bought great quantities of these materials for less than the cost of the labor to replace them, and we are giving our customers every penny of the saving! WE WILL MAKE ONLY $1 ON A $20 GARMENT! We are anxious to do our share toward the further readjustment now taking place and we have figured the selling prices in this catalog so low that we expect to make only 5%—or $1 on every $20 you send us. We believe that the greater volume of business will repay us. Are we entitled to a 5% profit? OUR UNUSUAL GUARANTEE. Lower Prices Than Any House in America! We guarantee the prices of the merchandise in this book to be lower than you can buy the same or similar garments anywhere in America! If at any time before June 1st, you are offered the same merchandise for less money we will refund the difference! And we will let you be the JUDGE! We guarantee everything—even the fit! You are the judge—a trial costs you nothing—your money refunded without question if you are not satisfied. Postage is prepaid.
