THE
Differe:'ce in
OSS
The difference between .the sort of shoes .we sell and the
"Other Sort" will be perfectly .apparent to anyone who compares
our "Good Shoes". with "just shoes."
OUR BETTER SHOES
Our Shoes are built up to a Standard and not 1 Down to a
Price ! The result is that our Shoes are more economical than
uncertain shoes.;
They wear so much longer and look so much better than
"Bargain Shoes" that they are a Better Investment, Dollar for
Dollar, than any Shoes that sell for Iess money,
The -true test of Shoo Value is not the First Cost, but the
Final Cost—not what they cost Per. Pair, but what they cost Per
Year. It is upon this simple test of value that the successful
growth of our Shoe Business is based
