Buster Browh /W Sh ° £s Sk p rDP ROYS Y B \j\ FDR GIRLS Your boy or girl should begin to weir Buster Brown Shoes with the neit pair of shoes you luiv.' It is never too late to skirt the child right, although the younger the better. The reason is apparent: The bones of the child’s foot are pliable; a badly shaped shoe can bend and twist them out of place; a correctly shaped shoe will protect and keep them normal. Buster Brown Shoes For Boys—For Girls get their correct shape from the Brown Shaping Lasts, which repro duces the physically jierfect foot— the most wonaerful development in mod ern shoe making Feet trained in these shoes are therefore l free from future* foot ailments. In economy, in style, in quality, in wear. Buster Brown Shoes are the equal of any shoe It is the Brown Shaping Lasts that make them so superior to all other shoes for boys and girls. Yet they cost no more than com mon shoes —only $3.00 and up. McDonough trading co. McDonough, - Georgia. South Avenue. The editor of the Wesleyan I Christian Advocate, Rev.
