MONEY SAVERS Fur ALL
These Durable Soles Cut
Shoe Bills Down

"For use around cement plants and
similar places where rough materials
grind down soles quickly, / recommend
Ne6lin Soles. They resist wear sur
prisingly. After working around the
clinker department long enough to
wear out two pairs of ordinary soles,
my Ne0lin Soles are still as good as
new, writes A. F. Miller, superintend-
ent of The Peninsular Portland Cement
Company plant in Jackson, Michigan.
It is remarkable how tough and dur
able Ne6lin Soles are. They are made
so by Science comfortable and water
proof, too. They come on new shoes
in many styles for men, women, and
children, and are available everywhere
for residing. Wear them, and cut
your shoe bills down,
Neolin Soles are made by The Good
year Tire & Rubber Co., Akron, Ohio,
who also make Wingfoot Heels, guar.
anteed to outwear all other heels.
