When Hie Leaves Begin lo Turn
and the cool breezes blow from the North
the man who cares to dress well begins to
think of a NEW SUIT. There’s good sense
in thinking about it, for though often wrong
the world is apt to judge a man by his
clothes. Dress well, but dress economi
cally. Get the most for your money. We
aim to supply the clothing wants of every
man in Gaffney.
WE CATER TO ALL CLASSES.
It is better for the “poor man” because we
have the trade of the rich man; it is better
%
for the “rich man” because we have the
trade of the poor man; better for the man
between the two and better for us because
we serve you well. Our new fall and winter
suits are ready. The single-breasted or
double-breasted sack suit is here. Every
late cut and freak of fashion is here. Suits
$2.50 to $18.00.
SATISFACTION EVERY TIME
