SK ANY MOTHER where to buy the best 'clothing for boys, and it is a certainty the
answer will be: "M. 6c K. by all means!" Mothers know know by test that M. 6c K. Boys'
Suits are the best. The new fall styles of Buddy Tucker and Peter Pan Suits, for which we have
the exclusive agency, are a revelation of beauty. It is safe to state that no other make of boys'
clothing possesses the same degree of perfection in fit and style. The fact that M. & K. are sell
ing these celebrated suits insures a guarantee as to the reasonableness in price costing no
more than inferior qualities are usually sold at. Buddy Tucker and Peter Pan Suits in all

wool qualities from $5.85 to
$1250; excellent school suits,
made to resist the abuse a
school boy usually gives his
ML

dial invitation to parents to an
inspection of their fall styles.
