Practical
Experience may be the best teacher; but it doesn’t conduct
a free school. We charge nothing for showing our friends
and customers through our line, but we are glad to have you
come and look at any time. Our ads. are our business ser*
mons. Through them we preach the principles of practical
economy. The world is made up of practical people—peo
ple who have a just regard for the value of a dollar and its
purchasing power. As example is always better than pre
cept so is practice better than preaching. Read what we
offer and profit by the same.

ginghams, skirt goods and novelty waist goods, which we are
selling lower than usnal.

call your attention to A our $3.00, $3.50 and

know that you could not be induced to buy
a cheap shoe at any price. We have cheap
shoes and as good as ^ can be bought for the
money, but we will always endeavor to sell you a good one
when it is in our power to do so. Always come and look
at our shoes before you buy and if we don’t interest you in
regard to quality and prices buy elsewhere.
