Most city men are not in fighting trims Their muscles are flabby; they ore short winded; they have flat-feet; they soon tire; in short, they lack physical erierrfy. That is why it takes six months tq a yeaf ol hard training to make thefn into soldiers able to do the work and withstand the hardships at the front. How city men wtte energy The reason city men haven't physical energy Is this: They waste it. They waste it in many ways and small wastes added together make a tre mendous total. One flagrant example of energy-waste is seen in 'the use of hard leather heels. - As everyone nov knows, leather heels re not suited to hard pavements. They re out of date. They .were made for dirt roads and fields. But some city men still wear leather heels. As a result, they Jar energy from their systems some 8,000 tlmesa dtey. Fof thfc Average city man takes 8,000 dally steps and every step taken with leather heels orthard pavements Jolts your system. The heels best sulte4 to bard pavements are O'Sullivan's Heels. They absorb all shocks and save your energy. City men who wear O'Sullivan's Heels are in better physical shape than those who still stick to the old-fashioned leather heels. They don't pound away their energy on the pavements. It i3 the duty of every man especially in these time3 to conserve his energy in every possible way. Here is an easy, practical way for you to save energy. Put O'Sullivan's Heelson yyour shoes. Theyare guaranteed to outlast any other heels. They will last three times as long as leather heels and will give uniformly satisfactory service to the very last. Be cause of our special process, O'Sullivan's Heels combine the greatest durability with the greatest resiliency. They are made of perfect heel material. Buy your new shoes O'Sullivanized. Good dealers sell the latest style shoes with theuo heels already attached. In blaek, whit or fan; for mm, women 4nof children, n aht on O'SxtlU van' avoid dUtppolatment oubt(ruf ea.
