WHEN YOU BUY A PAIR OF SHOES yon make, on a hmall
scale, what is just as much of an investment as though you bought
a hundred shares c.f railroad stock. From this investment you look
for a return. If the *hoes have not been misrepresented you'll get it; if they
bave been you won't. Wb»fc we clam for our Shoes is that you run no
when you invest in them—-that it will pay you to buy tbem. We cannot
speak too highly of oar
