Concerning Shoes and
leather you need to know that
the policy of my business is
squarely against the misrepre-
sentation widely practiced in
trade. Discriminating people
are finding more and more
clearly where the truth is told,
and all honest dealers gain
thereby.
I. have been able to offer
this year many extraordinary
and special bargains. I have
also been able to cheapen the
prices on many of the best
standard goods. Therefore in
both directions it is my privil-
ege to give the public im-
proved and in the'best sense
_ cheaper service.
