The right way is to buy hosiery that ex- actly fits your feet and your needs. If your feet burn, ache, and quickly tire, maybe it’s the fault of misfit hosiery that gathers, binds, or quickly tears. Come in today and buy a pair of Ipswich socks or stockings. Over 50,000,000 pairs were sold last year. Made in styles that range all the way from sturdy, cushiony, 25-cent cotton socks to the beautiful fibre silk and lisle flare-top stockings at 75 cents. AT bcock Co., 177 Rin S N.
