There was never a time in the his
tory of the shoe business when as
many low grade shoes were on the
market a s there are today. So in

wisdom TO patronize a thoroughly re-
liable dealer such as H. Kleven at 113

a shoe man who knows quality and
as a result his store has come to be
known as the home of shoe values.
