this section of good old Connecticut
J where they can get the famed Soro:9s
shoe-a shoe that royalty appreciates in
the old world and that American ladies
! the world over appreciate The Sorosis
shoe is a great favorite and justly so
because while being an excellent shoe
in every particular the manufacturers
devote much pains and skill to make
every size and shape that the feminine

make them in SO many varieties that
every lady can find the shoe best adapt
ed to her particular foot and thus can
get a shoe that is not only "a thing of
beauty" but a Joy" until it is absolute

will far outlast one that does not fit
nicely. So particular are the manufac-
| turerS of this famous shoe to provide
shoes in all varieties that they secured
and possess the exact measurements OF

| Wellesley girls, thus having a wide
range of measurements, which is a
perfect guide, enabling them to furnish

Mr.. Greenwood is most favorably
known in New Haven from his four
teen years occupancy of his old store,
which he parted with recently to Howe
& Stetson and at his new store, S14
Chapel street, a few doors from Or
ange street he has had built a fine re-
ception room for ladies. This is in the
front part of the store and is a beau
tiful room with ornamental hard wood
flooring, rugs an inner partition of
beautiful ground glass, chairs, tables
etc. Here ladies can meet their shop
ping friends and write letters, facili-
ties being furnished, and recuperate
themselves. In the rear Of the store is
a handsomely equipped toilet room ex-
clusiVely for the lady visitors The
store itself is very handsomely fitted up
and equipped and here thousands of
pairs OF the famous Sorosis shoes await
the buyer. Mr.. Greenwood sold thous-
ands upon thousands of pairs of this
shoe at his old store and now deals in
this shoe exclusively and his store is
the only place in this part of the state
where the Sorosis can be bought. A
telephone is at the store, its service /
free to all the ladies'. Electric lights
give abundance of light in the store
and handsome spray lights add to the /

BILE to New Haven and in his new I
quarters with his well known business
ability and popularity and with the
Sorosis so well known and apprecia ted
a large and llourshing business is as
sured at the new stand surprising even
that which he won a the old place
We may add thai the young folks
are not forgotten by Sorosis, as Messrs
A, e. Little & Co. have complied with
the many requests Of the wearers of
SorosiS by making few select lines of
childrens shoes-made on broad bot
toned lasts, extension edges and all
hand welt" They cost little more on
the start than common shoes, but wear
much longer, give perfect ease, and al
low the foot to grow and retain the
shape that nature intended.
