Keep the children well clothed with
good warm garments. This advice will
apply to children of all ages. Many a
man goes down to an early grave because
of neglect in providing himself with suit
able apparel. Davis & Savard say that
that th jre is no reason why people should
go without warm overcoats, ulsters and
winter suits when the prices are so low.

tuted at the up-to-date store is Intended
to clear their counters of every winter
garment.
