II would be difficult to receive q more en-
phatic illustration Of the truth Of the saying,
"Nerit wins success, than is evidenced in the
position and popularity achieved by that ar ticle
Of footwear known as the Crawford shoe. y
II IL only about five years since the Crawford
shoe was first introduced to the public and then
in q comparatively small way. Ii was a new
and unique idea to establish factory for the
exclusive manufacture of one particular kind
Of a shoe and then establish stores where only
that particular shoe should be sold: that the
vearer Of the shoe should purchase only from
the maker and that the profits that usually ac-
crue to tie wholesaler and the jobber should
be put into the value Of the shoe and yet be al
forded to the consumer at u less price than Is
generally charged
10 make such an enterprise success re
quired in its projectors q thorough knowledge
Of the business, backed up by capital and push
That the Bouve, Crawford Company, the hrm
style under which the Crawford shoe is manu-
featured, possessed these requisites IN sn emf
nent degree is evidenced by the success which
has attended them. They have now in Brock
ton a large factory, employing large number
Of skilled workmen exclusively In the MANN
fscture of their shoes, and in the leading cities
of the United States have twenty iirst-class
stores for their exclusive sale and rom which
are retailed more gentlemens fine shoes than
Of any other manufacture in the world:
To be more particular in the special features,
wherein the Crawford shoe has won its strong
hold upon popular favor, may say it Is a
shoe that is made to fit the foot instead of fit
ting the foot TO the shoe; IL is made on five
different shaped lasts; it is made in sizes and
half sizes, and is just as easy when first put on
as when worn longer; always as easy An
old shoe" In style and finish it is emphati-
cally the gentlemans shoe.
Its price, too, Is another strong lever that has
been used. A Crawford shoe that retails at one
Of their stores for "a is the equal il every way,
in STYLE finish and material, of any shoe for
which 81 and Sl0 is charged.
