For Women
We overheard a prominent business man of the Town of
Witngharn make this remark a few days ago, viz:
"My wife will wear nothing but Enna Jetticks-since she has
started to wear this wonderful line of footwear."
And( this is only one< of many who bear similar testimony;;
.and: the reason is quite plain. For instance, many have not been
.able to mbtain what is known as "perfect fit" owing to the fact
that ;most shoes are made in "one width, only" and as a cottse-
q!uence it la dto be a C or D width fit or not fit. But with Enna
,Jetticks you may secure a "perfect fit", in fact there is an Enna,
jettick shoe made for your foot. We invite you to let us demon.
strafethe truth of this statenient by simply calling at our store
.
and; ving us "try on" your exact size.
Enna Jettick Shoes are mall in Etttra Narrow, and Etctra
wide and are sold at the same prices from Atlantic to Pacific,
xiamely:
$7.00 and $8.00 per pair.
