TRADE -MARK is a manufacturers' signature. If a firm makes
an article they are prepared to stand behind --they stamp it with
their trade -mark. It is put on their goods so you may identify them.
It stands to reason, therefore, that it is safer for the public to always buy
"known" and ``trade -marked" shoes rather than "anonymous" shoes.
Each working day of the year, the A. H. M.
trade -mark is stamped on tate soles of thousands
of pairs of shoes for men, women and children,
because we want you to know our shoes when you
see them—because we are making a sincere effort
to produce good values in footwear—because we
believe you will find our shoes satisfactory—and
buy then again and again.
Ames Holden McCready are Canada's largest
makers of shoes. A.H.M.footwearissold bythou-

the leading merchants in almost every town.

We make such a large proportion of the boots
