HARRY MASON Editorial Sleight of Hand Most clothing stores would like to have Hermann, the old-time master of magic, on the job to put on a "quick disappearance" stunt for their inflated-priced stocks of suits and overcoats. The manufacturers of ready-mades had all the luck. They passed the high-price buck to the dealer before prices started to bust. Xow all the dealer has to do is to unload his high-cost ready-mades the dear old public. Clothing conditions are such that, if you are not careful, you could pay TWICE as much for a suit or overcoat as you should pay! The safe plan is to be sure you are buying nn the basis of rock-bottom costs no profiteering, no inflation, no white elephant unloading.

I make all my suits and overcoats in my own There Is no money waste no chance for manufacturer profiteering 110 chance for middleman profiteering. And because I do the largest high-grade tailoring business in Pittsburgh. I am content with a very small profit per each garment. HARRY MASON 828 Liberty 430 Wood Street 6221 Frankst )wn Arenue, E.
