THE
Difference in Shoes
Tho difference between tate 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 pot Down to a
Price 1 The result is that ou r Shoes are more economical than •
uncertain shoes.
They wear so much longer and look so much better than
"Bargain Shoes" that they ar e a Better Investment, Dollar for
Dollar, than any Shoos that sell for less money.
'The true test of Shoe Val ue is not the First Cost, but the
Final Cost—not what they co st 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 I.
