HURRAH FOR SHOE!
You all know Shoes went powerful up in price
last Fall. The "Trust" had them by the heel,
but the people kicked so much that they were
compelled to let loose. To make a long story
short, Shoes have "drapped," and we struck while
the iron was hot and bought, by actual count,
2,436 pairs, which, you know, is a good many
Shoes ; but we know lots of our friends are near
ly bare-footed, and we propose to Shoe them at a
small cost. Now, friends, we want your trade on
Shoes,
