This PERSONAL Letter Tells the SECRET of
Styleplus $17 Suits
We have this letter from Henry
Soneborn, maker of the noted Stylesplus
$ I 7 suits for men. He has had to call
a halt in sales. His business has grown
to such huge proportions and retailers
all over the country are so clamorous
for his famous clothing that his great
factory—probably the greatest in the
wcrld—has been compelled largely to
to restrict the sale of its output ro old
customers.
If you could see this big factory at
Baltimore, Mary'and. you could then
comprehend the MAGNITUDE of
Henry Sonneborn's business. A great,
tall, massive structure—covering acre
after acre of solid floor space with
thousands—literally thousands—of busy
workmen turning out Styleplus $1 7.00
suits foe men from ocean to ocean. If
this factory were placed on the 1 40 by
140 feet occupied by THE MAM-
MOTH Department Store it would
rear itself up fully twenty stories,, an
imposing monument to brains and en-
ergy and industry.
Henry Sonneborn's secret lies in this
word—MAGNITUDE.
His success as a manufacturer lies in
the fact of his BIGNESS-
He has discovered that he is able to
give men High-Grade clothing at a
moderate price because of his enor-
mous sales.
This letter will interest you. It tells
a remarkable story of success. THE
MAMMOTH Department Store con-
gratulates itself on being the local
representative of this concern. Do
yourself the favor of reading this letter.
THE MAMMOTH DEPARTMENT STORE,
Shawnee, Oklahoma,
Dear Sirs:-
In fairness to our present customers and to ourselves, we
are "putting on the brakes" for a while so as to catch our breath.
During the last two years our business has increased over
250,000 suits, due to large orders from our old customers and to the
addition of a large number of new customers.
An increase of 250,000 suits per year, meaning an average
increase of 5000 suits per week, has taxed our capacity despite the
fact that we took on during the above period about 1000 additional
hands and increased our factory space to 405,000 square feet.
Our policy for 1914 is to concentrate our efforts upon the
requirements of our present customers rather than to increase our
business further, with the one end in view—to give better service.
It is needless for us to dwell on the powerful impression
that the STYLEPLUS campaign has made upon the clothing business of .
America. It has brought a new element into the field and the
retailers of the country have been quick to avail themselves of it
to their financial advantage.
Our GENERAL LINE side by side with our advertised line has
grown in breadth and in volume. However, this larger volume has not
come to us unsolicited. We went after it strong with a good
proposition—one that appeals to the hard common sense of the retail
clothier.
All we need say is that we have been fully alive to the op-
portunities presented by the tariff reduction; that our buyers have
been in Europe to test out European conditions as to purchases, that
in this country also we have made the most of every opportunity and
that our salesmen now on the road are offering to our trade bigger,
better and broader lines than ever before.
Our models are modish, ranging from English to conservative
and our organization and equipment enable us to give a real element
of style at a medium price, together with intrinsic values.
By shaping our lines for the great majority of men by spec-
ializing upon one definite ideal in our manufacturing plan, which is
on a great scale, we have created the foremost clothing opportunity
for the American rstailer.
This is proved by the universal endorsement of the trade.
In closing we wish to thank our customers for their in-
dulgence and support. Very truly yours,
Henry Sanneborn & Co.
Here is our final word to you. The Spring season is just opening. Easter is only a week away.
If you want to practice economy in your clothing and at the same time pet the biggest and best
values and the last woid in style, fit and workmanship, you should see one of these STYLEPLUS $17 suits. Come in this
week and let us show you.
