sand Pairs of Women's Highest Grade $2.50
Shoes, to Be Sold at $1.65 a Pair.
It is a great lot of splendid shoes. We can pay them no higher
tribute than this. They are of finest dongola and vici kidskin, in
both button and lace, with patent leather or kid tips, McKay
sewed which means they are better than hand-sewed since the
deft fingers of man cannot equal the clever worn ot McKay's great
device. We warrant every pair to give good honest service. If
not, your money back. Could anyone ask for more ?
