ill PENNSYLVANIA AVENUE. ^aka $c (Hump mm SEVENTH STREET. You Have No Idea of the Strength of Our Serge Stock Men's?$12.50 to $30.00 It numbers THOUSANDS of Suits?SCORES of models?in the full assort ment of size-divisions peculiar to Saks-making. EASILY THREE TO ONE SHOWN ANYWHERE. Mark that?because there's a very important reason for such an assembling of Serges here. Reliance! Every yard of Serge used in every grade, from lowest - priced to best, is GUARANTEED. You can rely upon it implicitly. Not only is it ALL WOOL; but it is SELECTED wool. And we know it to be ABSOLUTELY FAST COLOR. Not on the weavers' word; but by ACTUAL TESTS OF OUR OWN?a real acid test, and what's still better, a weather test. Exposure to just the conditions it will be called on to undergo in your service. Rained on and sunned-on and then rained-on again. Then comes the making. Serges need the utmost skill in tailoring?and they get it in our shops?at the hands of our experts. Cold-water shrunk, until there's no shrink left in them; so are the tapes and stays, and canvases. You never see a Saks Serge pulling at the seams, curling at the edges and corners? and that's why. That's why they hold their shapeliness straight through to the end of their service. Of itself that gives the Saks Serge Suits advantage over any other. Young Men's?$9.75 to $25.00 There are Plain Serges; Self-striped Serges; Pin-striped Serges?in Single Breasted, Double Breasted and Norfolk styles ? with Soft-roll fronts, easy and graceful; or the permanent roll that is more precise. They are! full-lined, half lined, or skeleton?with no padding in the shoulders, or slightly padded?which ever way you want them. We don't care how big you are; or how small? there's a Serge here in YOUR size?in every one of the grades. The modeling has been done with the consummate taste that marks all pro ductions of our workrooms; the tailoring gives evidence of the masterful skill of our shops. We couldn't buy a Serge for our stock?because nobody else gives the atten tion to the details we do?and your satisfaction depends as much?really more? on the manner of making than upon the Serge itself. We've no monopoly on wool and dyes. BUT IT SEEMS THAT WE CERTAINLY HAVE ON MAKE MANSHIP. There simply isn't any real competition with Saks Serges. You can see why we have to have THREE TIMES THE BIGGEST STOCK. "AD" MEN OF NATION ASSEMBLE IN DALLAS Texas Town Hums With Noise of Delegates to Annual Convention. PALLAS, To*..

Our readers, after perusing this one, will wait with eagerness and impatience for the next part. The series will probably be concluded with the publication of the I fourth Instalment.
