BIG SHOE BILLS
NOT NECESSARY

''It looks as if / would not be able
70 wear out my shoes with Neolin
Soles. They have been in service
about year. and are still good, writes
w. 6. Dickinson Of New Haven, Conn.
II is natural that shoes with Neolin
Soles should wear a long time. for
Ne6in Soles give eTfTa wear where
most shoes wear out quickest.
These lcng-lasting soles are made by
Science to be especially tough and dur
sble-comfortable and waterproof, too.
If you want TO save money on shoes
buy them with Ne6lin Soles. Good
shoe stores carry them in many styles
.or men, women, and children. And
YOU can have your old shoes robot
toned with Ne6lin Soles at any repair
shop.
Ne6Iin Soles are made by The Good

who also make WinRfoot Heels-guar-
