Agreat• many interesting facts may bd discovered with a pair of scales, but it int doubtful if any single fact will be more interesting and valuable to the average woman than the weight of her shoes. For ' this tells her the number of ounces that must be lifted thousands of times each day, and a little calculation will show that she lifts tons of shoe leather a day -no small labor in itself. The "Dorothy Dodd" shoe saves the lifting of more than one and a half tons every day. A pair of "Dorothy Dodd" shoes are several ounces light- er than ordinary shoes. The feet are just so much more comfortable, and you are so much It.es tired. Put a pair to the .oat. They cost $ 3.75.
