You will find that in the long run it
payS TO wear oood shoe leather.

You will find that in the long run it
pays to wear good shoe leather.
We proceed upon the theory that
the best is cheapest, more, perhaps,
in shoes than in most things. Also
that men usually want TO duplicate
and keep duplicating a successful
shoe. Hence we carry the same
makes and grades from year to year
in full assortment of sizes. And we
make quality rather than price the
basis of acceptability.
Take, for instance, our SIS shoe.
Plenty of five-dollar shoes in all the
shoe stores, Butsours are considered
peculiarly good, and well tell you
why. All are by one maker. We
buy nothing else from him; because
this is the one thing he can make
best. Good at the start, we kept
adding Improvements, never once
asking a lower cost because of the
quantity consumed. Now, after
years of trial, sending out thousands
of pairs with our fullest guarantee,
we pronounce these shoes the best
value to be got anywhere for a five-
dollar note. So will you, after trial.
All shapes, all SUBSTITUTION, lace,
congress and Waukenphast.
Our illustration suggests trousers
as well as shoes. You know, or
rather you should know, we are
closing out our broken and small lots
of mems trousers at 1888 for all
formerly Sc and below, and $3.50
for all formerly $3.50, 81, So and So.
