We are prepared to supply a long-felt want, and for this shoe we
claim it is the most SATISFACTORY, STYLISH AND ONLY PER
FECT FITTING SHOE MADE. It fits on the foot like a glove on
the hand. It is not cumbersome like the button shoe that has four or
five thicknesses of leather over the instep, but this shoe has but one
thickness and presents a seamless, glove-fitting front, comfortable to the
foot and pleasing to the eye.
This shoe differs materially from the "old side lace. That had from
18 to 24 eyelets, double cord, and pulled on sideways, while this shoe has
but eight eyelets, pulls on straight and is held in place by a low gore,
inserted on each side of the shoe, which is covered and protected by the
top, and is adjusted to the ankle by lacing on the inside, giving to the
foot a very slim and small appearing form. This shoe cannot break in
the back, and neither are you inconvenienced by constantly re-sewing
buttons or repairing button holes. This shoe is being placed in all good
towns, and its success and popularity are assured. We feel confident if
you will trv a pair of these shoes you will not be satisfied with any others.
Would" be pleased to have you call and make a personal inspection
of this shoe and think it will interest you.
Yours Respectfully.

A Kansas statistician has been
sharpening his pencil since abund
ant crops are assured for his state.
He now tells us thaVif the proceeds
or the product or the present year
were devoted to debt paying entire
ly, every dollar of indebtedness in
the state would be swept away.
This is a pretty strong stattement.
Kansas has suffered from bad crops
for three years' and a great many
of her people are in financial
straights. Still, after .giving a
liberal allowance for the part play
ed by imagination in these estima
tes, it is evident that the crop will
do Kansas a world of good. Old
debts will be paid and new confi
dence will be felt in the future of
agriculture in that region. They
say that events go in waves in Kan
sas, and that the three years of
crop failure will be followed by
three years of plenty. In that case
Kansas will be almost ready to
move ahead with the booming state
of Nebraska. For several years
