The time will soon. slip by when Easter will be here. Then every one’s thoughts will be turned toward the question of new apparel. As far as the footwear is con- cerned, we are ready even now to show you whatever fashion calls for—the correct styles which every particular person will want to wear. These new spring styles we are receiving almost daily give us just reason for enthusiasm. Those who have already seen them are strong in their praise of the extreme smartness and exclusive fashion of the styles displayed. We are quite sure our showing far eclipses any ever scen in this city before. The ladies’ spring high shoes and Oxfords come in for a goodly share of the admiration —and every woman should get in and see them. The swell young men of the town will find our stock of spring footwear exactly to their liking. We have taken particular pains with its se- lection—and cannot see where it could be bettered. Our spring styles are without doubt the smartest and most fashionable ever shown. The rest of the heavy weights are reduced now to make: room for the spring styles. $2.98 now buys the choice of any of the men’s shoes for which we asked $3-50, $4.00 and $4.50 former- ly. And $2.48 buys the choice of any of the ladies’ shoes for which we asked $3.50, $4.00 and $4.50. They’re just such shoes as will prove suitable for the summer’s outings—just the proper weight. B.
