AN IMPORTANT QUEsTIoN.--Not the
least important question which arises in the
mind of every individual who has an eye to
good taste in dress and econ omy in ex-
penses, is, Where shall purchase my boots
and shoes? The answer made by every
intelligent mind, is. at Todd's, And why
theres Simply because the goods kept and
sold by Todd are not only the best in the
city, but it has also been proven time and
again, that they are the cheapest. Do you
wish to practice economy? Todd's goods
wear longer than others! DO you consult
good taste? Todd's goods are of the most
approved style Have you regard for COM
fort ? Todd's boots and shoes set like a
glove. Every body likes them. The ladies
prefer them to any other; the gentlemen
will not do without them. For success in
business, that gentleman is indebted to his
own sagacity in purchasing, the reasonable
ness of his prices and the manner in which
he treats his customers. He superintends
his purchases in person, and no goods enter
his store that he would be ashamed to sell
to his best friend. Those who have been
there, trade at no other place. Those who
have net been there, will find it to their in.
terest to go at once. He has but one
price, and that is really lower than the
lowest. Call at s4 Brady street.
