'z'EaE: DOUGLAS SHOE.
"A GENUINE FIRST. CLASS ARTICLE MADE
BY THE FIRM AT BRoCK<DN.

Many people have heard of the Nv. l..
Douglas s. Shoe who Without doubt,
do not comprehend how it is that shoe
that Is 80 durable as this is known to be
can be made for such price, One nat
uraliY asks how it is that shoe, as good
as one that ordinarily retails for SIS or
$6. can be mailed to any part of the coun-
try for %. The answer is found in the
fact that between the manufacturers and
the consumers, the niddlemen or whole
sale jobbers and the retailers each make
profit, and by the tine the shoes get to
the consumer pair equal to the Nv. L.
Douglas 50 shoe" has cost Is or$6. Mr..
Douglas is now doing large business
and consequently can afford to sell at a
small profit per pair.
a recent visit to Mr.. Douglas busy
factory at Broekton elected the lacts
that are given below, which cannot failed
to be of enterest to- the readers of The
GLOBE.
The work at the factory is thoroughly
systematized and every department is I'M
der responsib 10 supervision. When
business Is rushing a25 hands are employ
ed and 1900 pairs of shoes are turned out
in day. At present 200 hands are
making 1909 pairs per day.
A trip through the various rooms of the
factory showed the visitor the substantial
manner in which these shoes are made.
The tops arc cut from glove calf, which
IS seldom used in shoe which sells for
this price. For this vamps or uppers
Walkers Oakley,s best Chicago calf is
used. The solos arc made from oak
leather the soft pllable qualities of which
make it by AL odds the best leather that
is used for this part of the shoe. Another
point of superiority In this shoe is that
the stiffening Is one piece of solid leather.
The bottoms are all sewed ON. and the
tops and uppers arc stitched. not with
common thread, IS Is usually the case
but with Bedding Bros, prise medal

silk, and the shoe is faced with calf in
