SOUTH PARIS, MAINE This Is OUR IDEA A certain city store prints a statement something like this—Beware of the downward prices. It is a known fact that many stores on account of the cold late season are overstocked with Spring Suits and Top-coats. We all know that the longer tbey keep them the more out of style they will be. In other words, this Spring's Suit will be "ANTIQUE" next Spring. Now speaking for ourselves we can say that about all of our Kuppenheimer Suits as well as other makes are YEAR 'ROUND models ; a suit that you buy here will be an all round suit—in style this year, next year and the year after. No reduction in price, no reduction in style, no reduction in quality, or no re duction in value. Our motto is one price to all and money back if not satisfied.
