L ET your eyes and mind face the faces on the opposite page who have honored the City so faithfully and well as its chief officer or Mayor. Without doubt there is not one of these gentlemen whom HILTON has not furnished with Clothing, and their faces look good to us; we hope they do to you.


It's a safe proposition that HILTON is the Best Clothier and always offers some- thing "right off the bat" that creates a good feeling. The whole year 'round we are in the markets of the world for values; not how low a price, but values for the trade which prove a practical benefit to our patrons; and it is a Tiffany stickpin against a doughnut if we are not brain helpers and money savers to the buyer who wants quality in the Shoe or Clothing line, Trunks or Furnishings.
