FOR A MAN'S CHRISTMAS.
You know how difficult it is to pick out the right Christinas
presets for a man ; even if you ask hi,m, he can't tell you what
he wants. ?
There's a way to suit him perfectly ; buy his Christmas
presents in a man's store where men's things are sold : the store
where he buys his own stuff when he wants any.
This is the store ior it; you'll find us prepared to show you
the right things for any man's Christmas ; you may be the man
yourself.
How would a Hart, Schaffner & MaJx fine overcoat do? Or
a Hart. Schaffner & Marx fine suit ? A little unusual as a holi?
day gift, but all tho better for that, maybe.
