We are happy to say that our reductions—while they are not so extraordinary as you are accustomed to seeing in other advertisements—are honest—and our shoes are more price-worthy than any you can buy elsewhere. Our usual guaranty for durability goes with every pair—no matter what the price. These price cuts will crowd our stores and empty our shelves.
