We’ve had a great run on Lot No. 1 men’s shoes at $2.95. In this lot are Warranted Patent and Dull “Borrojaps” and the warrant goes with them just the same as if you paid $4 or $5 for them. A lot of fellows are buying these shoes to wear for every day wear, they say it’s cheaper than buying heavy shoes. Lots of good numbers left yet, see some of them in the window.
