SLUG & SLUGGARD “THEREFORE it behoves all with width between the ears to hearken to the Song of the Slug—and prepare! For as the thermometer ascendeth, our Spring and Summer stocks descend and diminish. And woe, woe is he who heedeth us not. For he shall find insufficient MEN’S WEAR for his needs, and Spring shall come to him, not as a season, but as a hiatus. GOATS & PANTS © CO up and away to the House of BullickJ Blackmore.

So in for thy chop to the extent that thy coupon-book allows, lest ye set a semi-nude fashion, with even the breath coming in abbreviated pants. PEACE—& PIECES © EOLLOW these our counsels, 0 Brethren, ./ i ,j and ye shall find peace in your hearts, •' ■ pieces in thy wardrobes, and complete and ■ i ■ h-H utter satisfaction in thine appearance.
