THE DIFFERENCE IN SHOES!
TH 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.
