The assorted packingsfor Men s and Women s Fine and Plain Overs, and thosefor Childs Croquets, have been changed proportionatelyto one entire years production of each size, and willmake it unnecessary in future, in many instances, tospecify special sized cases.

In all lyife-Buoy Men s and Women shigh-heeled specialties,

Every shoe dealer will, at a glance, recognize the importance of the Leather Innerheel and Counter asillustrated in the above cut.After a thorough trial, covering a period of manufacture of nine months time, we feel every confidence inrecommending the lines with these improved Innerheelsas being greatly superior to the old style, without thisreinforcement.
