V Plattsmouth's large and Up-to Date Shoe Starts The near approach of spring and the turning of one's thoughts to proper apparel for the season natur ally causes one to look about and see what Is presented In the line of wearing apparel. It is hardly necessary right now to talk of cloth ing for there are four well stocked stores In the city, all of them up to the minute In style and quality of clothes. There are the splendid clothing stocks of Messrs Falter & Thlerolf, Weseott's Sons, .Wm. Holly and M. Fanger. These four enterpris ing merchants have everything a man can want in their lines and In ad dition, they have the prices. But when it comes to foot wear, it is a proud thing to say that Platts- mouth has two of the best and most up-to-date stores In Nebraska. A number of other stores handle shoes and they are selling them at the prices fixed by fierce competition. They all sell for what the shoes are worth and no more. If cheap shoes are wanted they can supply it and If you want goods of standard make and goods which sell at fixed prices the world over they can supply you and their price will be the same you will pay In Omaha or Chicago. The two exclusive shoe houses In the city are showing their spring lines now and they are beauties and they are sold at prices which warrant you in buying here. The firm of R. Sherwood & Son are featuring some of the finest makes in the market among them the Julia Marlowe, the White Ribbon and the Cross shoes for ladles and these shoes cannot be beaten at any price by any firm. They sell the world over. If any lady contemplates buying shoes all she has to do Is to look in Sherwood's west window and see what they have on display. Dainty and tasteful footwear for the ladles Is one of the things they feature. For smaller members of tbe family, the celebrated "Buster Brown" lines of shoes are in stock and they are Just what every mother wants and they prices. In fact, the Messrs Sherwood have an elegant line of goods. For men they have many standard makes and every one is a leader of fashion. The Dr. A. Reed Cushion sole is a feature of this line but there are so many other fine lines that the most fastidious can call and be suit ed. And the beauty of all this is that you can call upon this firm and buy their standard goods and if they are not as represented you can have them changed. With firms from other cities this cannot be done. The other r xclusle shoe store In the city, that of Joseph Fetzer presents to their many customers two fine dis play windows filled with the latest and most handsome designs In foot wear 1 1 Y Short Items of Interest From Frj- V X t X day Evening's Daily Journal X Mrs. W.
