I am overstocked on Low Cuts and if you’re looking for real bargains in shoes, come around. This ten days sale will include a great variety of Staples as well as sea sonable items at greatly reduced prices. There will be a good many items . on display in my store marked in plain figures all next week that are not mentioned for lack of space, and for that reason it will pay you to investi gate this sale before you make your purchase of anything in my line, for I will certainly save you some money.
