You may know it, or you may not; but the truth is, that Queen
Quality Shoes are manufactured by the largest Shoe Factory in the
whole United States. The Queen Quality factory makes more
shoes, and sells more shoes than any other.' This should be the
best evidence that they sell good goods. If the shoes were not all
that they am represented to be, the Queen Quality people could
not do the business they are doing. We have handled the Queen
Quality shoes for five years, and our trade in them has grown
steadily with that.of the factory. Now, if you have a hard foot to
fit, come in and let us try to fit you. If we do not happen to have
in stock your size and width, we can get it for you in three or four
days and it will not mean any extra cost to you, either. The prices
run from $2.50 to $5.00. We have shoes to fit your whole family,
and prices to fit your pocket book.
