WHAT A GREAT PAPER
SAYS. ABOUT RUBBERS

"Here's the first law of health
KEEP YOUR FEET DRY. We all
know it. We all know that pneumonia
and consumption always start with a
cold, and that the shortest cut to a
cold is pair Of wet feet. But it's so
Important matter that we can't be
reminded too often. Don't try to save
on rubbers; it's the most expensive
economy in the world. ''-Christian
Endeayor World.
Now that's all true every word of
it, the only question is what rubbers to
get and where to get them, to get the
best for the least money.
We carry the famous Gold Seal
and Goodyear Glove and Ball Band
Brands.
The Best Brands recognized the
world over as the Best made Rubber
goods.
We sell them because they are
the best we can buy.
The same thing is true about,our
Leather Shoes-We sell the best we
can buy.
We saved little over Is per cent
on our rubber stock buying them early
before the advance took effect.
We will turn it all over to our
customers, selling the best brands at
nearly the same price as last season.
GOOD GOODS
at medium price has always been our
watch word.
