^ e ver was a better or more
c omp reheuBive stook of fo °twear
hown in Gainesville than we die-
“l av this Spring. Every pair m
t holds all the worth, merit and
jo-datecess that its price can
possibly buy. The tone and
smartness of many of the styles
shown could not be excelled in
the finest city stores. Our great
leader is The Foot Glove Shoe for
men, a make of real $5.00 quality,
end absolutely correct in every
detail of style and fit, which we
sell at the popular price of $8.50.
Better values in fine shoes never
was given.
THE LIFEBLOOD
OF
OUB BUSINESS
Is good value—our platform, the,best and biggest money’s worth
that we can possibly give. It is because of this that our business is
growing so fast and thriving so greatly. And, furthermore, because
of the fact that in all lines we carry a really satisfactory variety—not
small, swimpy assortments, but a good big range of style and kind,
such as is not usually seen outside of large city stores. The advan-
tages of trading here instead of elsewhere are very real and tangible.
If you have not been in the habit of buying here ask someone who
is. We are not afraid of the answer.
