Hosiery of the proper texture and shoes well fitted add more to the comforts of all those who walk than any other article of dress. Our stocks are kept fresh and up to the minute in style because we buy often in small quantities. They have no advantage in the City stores over the small merchant who pays his bills promptly. Practically all shoes and stockings originate in the east and south and the larger stores cannot underbuy us because such goods must be given in advance orders. Our overhead expense is 1-3 less than the average lar ger store in the High Rent District. We stock the shoes and hose that go with the well dressed man or woman. We sell them at a price below that of the City stores. BON HAM & CURRIER L. E. ROSE, Mgr. Toggery Dept.
