The sale began with a rush this morning, and throngs
of wise buyers crowded the shoe section to secure these new
and very stylish low-cut shoes at the bargain price. Every
visitor declares that such values in seasonable and desir
able footwear have never before been seen in Atlanta.
The sale embraces about half a dozen styles, two of which
are shown in the accompanying illustrations. Two,three and
four-strap sandals with vamps of fine patent kid or colt and
uppers of dull mat kid, and the new cross-strap sandals of all
patent kid. All have full French heels and turned soles. We
will also include in the sale 200 pairs of ribbon ties of fine
kid in the new shade of brown—Cuban heels, turned soles.
These shoes are from leading manufacturers and are

ful throughout, shapes distinctly stylish and fit perfect.
They are in light and medium weights—ideal for dress or
semi-dress wear throughout the summer. ,
These shoes are regular $2.00, $2.50 and $3.00 values,
and were made up for this season’s selling at regular

There were new white cotton gloves

“I’ll Work Harder."
A (rouble’ usual In Packlngtown
among tha nnrortunata slavers In tha
factories occurs. Jurgls and his folks
see the bills mounting as the food and
drink have lo be replenished, and
Jurgls comforting hla ' bride, says
merely:
"Don’t worry, little one. I will work
harder."
Perhaps he could work harder. But
the man who watched him, as s practi
cal overseer, would not believe It. The
story, still dealing with the life of the
people and wltn
tba festivity, con
tinues:
