•This owing to the fact that the address-

THE DIFFERENCE IN SHOES!
H E Difference between the sort of shoes we sell and
the "Other Sort" will be perfectly apparent to any- '
one who compares our "GOOD SHOES" with "Just
Shoes!"
Our Better Shoes!
- Our Shoes are built up to a standard and Not Down
to a Price!. The result is that our shoes are more econ-
omical 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 which sell for less
money.
The true test of Shoe 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
