foot wear at such prices that it will be economy to buy from us. and be

WE SHALL COURT NO SPECIAL CLASS,
but make the Economical the store of the masses, and here will be found
foot wear at prices to fit the pocket books of all classes, from tho most
inexpensive to the very best class of foot wear, and at prices unmatched
by any of the largest cities' stores. Because we represent a large com
pany controlling some of the largest shoe factories in this country. And
tho Economical will be the medium to distribute their manufactured
stock to the consumer or the buying public. Sunbury has been se
lected from which to distribute because it is the centre of a large shoe
buying district, most of whom can reach our city in a very short time
vj sieam cars, trolley line, boats and conveyances.
We shall do no unwarranted boasting, but let our prices and the wearing quality of our atook boost
and laud the fame of tn " ECONOMICAL " from the centre to the remotest border of these Burrounding
counties. Buyers ot foot wear, do you realize what it means to buy shoes from such a source the largest
cities can not give a better choice or more perfect fit, and with their extravagant expenses can not nor do
they sell at our low prices.
No cheap shoddy, auction, imperfect or factory "seconds" will be found in the ECONOMICAL.
With eighteen yearH of shoe experience and being in close toueh with the fountain head of the shoe busi
ness, wo offer you the benfit of this experience and valuable association, which makes it possible to sell
The Very Best at the
Very Lowest Cash Prices
Because of such sources of supply we will sell absolutely for cash to friend or stranger, and will have no
losses and need not in marking our se ling prices add anything extra to make up losses from bad accounts.
Cash buyers, then buy for cash from the only absolute cash store in these five counties. We wish to an
nounce our rules, every one of which will be strictly lived up to :
We buy only for cash and sell for money.
One price to all.
Everything marked in plain figures.
Satisfaction guaranteed to all but cranks.
Money returned or shoes exchanged when not damaged if purchases are not
satisfactory.
