In short, this verge has Hie wear, look und finish ol u cloth coating double. Notwithstanding that serges have advanced » per cent, to jo per com. In price since last year, we shall be nble to sell these Buib ut the old price, $13.50. THK TAILORING OF TRUE BLUE SEROKS leaves nothing to bo desired. The work Is done by tailors who are worsted specialists and who thoroughly understand the handling of serge, which is the most unruly member of the worsted family. These suils will hold their shape, style and lit under till conditions of wear and welting. Thu cloth la just right weight for coolness and comfort, but has the tensile strength and wear-re- sisting qualities ofimuch heavier fabrics.
