It took us considerable time to find exactly what we wanted in Men's
Pants for this season, but finally we landed on the Famous Wald Walker line.
Not a more elegant line of Pants was ever tailored than those which these
l>eople have made for us, however, we had to make these people add several
new features to these goods before wc would consent to purchase the line
In any averaged size village on the face of the earth, you areable to pur-
chase Walk Over Shoes $:{ 50 ami $4.00 a pair, one price the world over. When

stand. E. F. Rahknsbukg.
