What Size Do You Wear The above vu'as the usual question, asked) "in other days" when the customer came to buy shoes, BUT NOT NOW --'IN OTH- ER DAYS the size of the shoe sold was largely GUESS WORK, But now, CORRECT FITTING IS A PRACTICAL CERTAIN- TY IF YbU MAKE IT A POINT TO BUY YOUR FOOT -1 WEAR FROM THOSE WHO KNOW HOW TO FIT THE FOOT. And we claim (and our claim is backed up by actual " knowledge through years of experience) TO KNOW HOW coma" bind with the. RIGHT FITTING SYSTEM. Foot troubles ;while yet somewhat numerous are becoming much less common, and THE REASON of foot troubles in 99 cases out of 100 is WEARING SHOES BOUGHT ON' CHANCE WITH LITTLE THOUGHT GIVEN TO THE MATTER OF • FITTING THE FOOT sobong as the price fitted the pocket book. And the reason foot troubles are becoming: much less com- mon is because of what is known as SCIENTIFIC FITTING and scientific) fitting o£ shoes is more surely accomplishedl by a FIT- TING DEVICE- known as THE BRANNOCK FITTING AP- PARATUS, which in factwe have used in our business for some Yew; WE USE OUR FEET MORE THAN ANY OTHER PART OF THE ANATON'Y-in fact WE HAVE NO SER VANTS EQUAL TO OUR FEET, and therefore THE 'GREAT - ST CARE SHOULD BE TAKEN WHEN BUYING SHOES TO SECURE A PROPER FIT,atnd this applies not only to adults but to small children, whose feet are so tender and easily bent (permanently) with ill fitting shoes. Do not take the chance of spoiling the life of your child (to a great extent) or yourself - by purchasing shoes with no thought of the fit, EVERY FOOT SHOULD BE PROPERLY FITTED, AND THIS WE ABSOLUTELY GUARANTEE TO DO, Willis' Shoe Store The Leading Shoe Store of These Parts.
