A Saying That Has Caught the
Town" Make Your Feet
Glad.'

Not long ago there vas introduced
into the advertisements Of a certain
Chicago shoe house a pair Of grim
ming feet with the words, "make
your feet glad"
This expression has been Dor
rowed, paraphrased and quoted until
it has become a common saying all
over town. You will see other shoe
advertisements headed Make your
feet happy, clothing advertisements
that read MAKE your boy glad"
Nowadays the favorite invitation to
drink is "Come in and make your
stomach glad" In the morning we
suppose it's cracked ice TO make
your head glad"
The other day a man directed q
boz to hurry on an errand with the
words . run along, make your feet
glad"
The firm that coined this can't be
forgotten catch phrase is coming
money as well, If you judge from its
monthly sales. They make report,
and back up the statement with UNI
qualified PROOF, that their sale OF
shoes for July amounted TO more
than that of any other shoe house in
the country, and more than for any
preceding July in their business.
Four factories employing l,6OC
men and turning out an average OF
1000 shoes II day are always VI
the go.
That Chicago should hold the
greatest American boot anu shoe in
dustry is a pride worthy fact, espe
cially when the product is Of sucl
~unvarying excellence. Any II wit
is at all familiar with the leathe
business knows of the stormy time
through which the trade has jus
passed. There was an advance il
the price of leather-an unavoidable
unconqucrable raise.
The shoe firm of which we ar
writing, true to its patrons Interests
was the last TO succumb to this con
dilion. For months after othe
houses brought up their prices the
stuck out AZ their old prices an
smaller profits.
IL is such policies as this tn at max
the firm of SELF, Schwab & Co,
Monroe and Market streets, Chicago
successful above all others.

Both sides hit the ball hard and often.

Cavanaugh also made a number OF bril-

rolling in the second, when tavanaugh
opened up with a hit, stole second, and
scored on Stahl's single. Richmond tied
the score In the fourth. Tannehiu hit
safely. but was caught between bases
minute later by Htahl. Little threw
wild, however. and fanny rested on sec
ond. Wells single sent him home. Roam

when Cancel dropped the ball over left

Their triumph was short-lived, for the
Richmonds sent four men across the

lined out two-bagger. Knorr was given

In the sixth inning Cancel knocked

cried. "Why don't you holler?' In the
