A Pair of
REGAL
Shoes
will keep your feet warm and

Will keep your Icet WdIIu dl1u
dry this wet weather.
We have a shoe that is as
near waterproof as it is pos
sible to make leather. 1t is
made Of the very finest of
leather, and every part is
thoroughly viscolized before
the shoe is put together.
Viscol is a scientific prep
arafion which comes the
nearer to making leather
absolutely waterproof than
anything which has yet been
discovered. Our waterproof
shoe comes in both tan and
black leather. And the best
part of it is that this shoe
is as comfortable and well
fitting as the light weights.
1t comes in "a sizes, which
assures YOU of getting an
absolutely perfect fit. The
price Of the waterproof shoe
is $500.
Remember these things
about REGAL shoes.
First-They wear the long
est, because nothing but the
best, most carefully selected
materials is allowed to go in
to them.
Second-.They fit better
than any other shoe on the
market, because they are the
only shoe in the world that is
made in "A sizes.
Third---They look the best
because we watch the fash
ion centers Of the world care
fully, and as soon as a new
idea appears we grab it and
make it up into RECALLS
This makes a combination
that you can't equal in any
other store that we know of.
