,We will begglad to see the
school? ‘“igirls--.f and 3 boys this
better, we think. _,
- Providing of proper shoes
for school use has always been
a strong feature of my busi-
ness, now I am going to try for
still more of the young folks’
trade ; of course I’ve got to
deserve it or I'won’t get it. I
I have shoes as fine as any
girl or boy will want, shoes for
as— little as it is economy to
buy. What I try hardest to
give are shoes neat in appear-
ance, thoroughly reliable in
materials and work, at a mod-
erate price. I seem to succeed,
at least many parents say Ido.

When .you buy a garment
and find that it 'frays, rips or
fades what do you dO—stay
away from the dealer ever
thereafter, or first give him a
chance to make it right?
Whoever he is, the latter is
the right course to follow.
Then if he “ weakens ” you
know where not to deal next
time. “ * T'

No one will deny that Gloves are absolutely indispensable to the attire
of "‘fair woman”—.shej will have them, be they good or bad, and
none knows better than woman. that the average glove is
"uncertain—like love, a lottery. “Absolute perfection we
.deem impossible and do not claim, but in the new
Foster stock for the coming season we offer
. goods that. “we believe, 'will Satisfy our
customers and enhance our
reputation.
KIDGLOVES AND TROUBLE.
To the majority of merchants who retail Kid Gloves these words are
synonymous, for the sellers maintain that, not only do they lose money on
the stock, but that gloves cause more trouble than all the other departments
together. They say, “Gloves are a necessary evil—we must keep them, but
cannot make a cent on them, for they are all bad.” ’ It is a fact that most
Gloves (except the higher priced) are unsatisfactory, and being all impart-ed,
this fact is due in a large measure to the high tariff, which necessitates
squeezing the manufacturer on his prices, so that he must use inferior
leather, hence “tribulations and sorrow.” Believing that the true solution
of the difficulty lies in paying the utmost limit of price and curtailing else-
where, we have proceeded on these lines and expect results that will not
only‘please our customers, but will redound to our own good in increased
patrOnage. ,
THE CHOICE.
. Next to color. consider weight. If too heavy, they are fuzzy. 'If too
light, they are tender and break on the seams. It is a mistake to test the
liather at the wrist; the hand and fingers are to bear the strain—test it
t ere. '
PROPER SIZE. .‘
$104. ,-
The' size» that gives full play to the fingers. Four-fifths of the damaged
Gloves are too small for the wearer. “Six into five will not go,” even with
the assistance of a practical fitter. ' - . '
PUTTING ON.
' Use a little powder and much patience. , Turn back the top, insert the
‘tips'of the fingers, rub slowly and firmly until they are smoothly covered
(never'pull nor press between thefingerS); next insert the thumb in the
‘same‘ manner. Button the second button from the palm first. Never hurry
—durability and appearance depend upon the observance of this maxim.
GUARANTEE.
If a Glove breaks or a stitch starts the First Time it is put on, it
I should Not be Worn. It is then returnable; not otherwise.
FOB/SHOPPING.
The “Bia'rritz” or Sack Glove is the favorite, because
