It has been proven conclusively that that which seems most pleasing to the taste is ofttimes detrimental to our best interests, and that which seems most pleasing to the eye we have found to be a cheat not at all what it appeared to be. In this day and age of expert imitation it behooves the prospective clothes buyer to look beneath the surface of things and note carefully every de tail that goes to make a perfect garment. , The good clothes question of today is equally as much one of fit and ap pearance as it is of honest value good workmanship. Ofttimes we see garments made of what appears to be all wool material that fit right and to all appearances are good clothes when in reality the material is a cotton cheat the workmanship an imposition on the pur chaser and dissatisfaction to the wearer. When you come to the M. ? K. for a suit you don't need to worry about the material, the workman- ship or the rightne3s of the clothes that are here for your choosing we offer you absolute security in clothes buying.
