Save 6d/- & Spend 1/6 "SHU-LIFE" means glad news to everyone who wears Boots or has to provide for them. "SHU-LIFE" is a Wonderful New Invention which takes the form of a penetrating liquid. When painted on the soles of your Boots, it permeates the leather and fill* the pores, and within a few minutes after being applied turns Into a solid substance inside the leather. This gives the leather wearing properties that can hardly be believed unless experienced. It never fails to make one pair of Boots wear as long as two, and in quite a number of cases, as long as three pairs. This depends on the quality of the leather to a certain extent. You can rest assured on a very minimum basis that you can get one pair of soles to last for two. "SHU-LIFE" is sold in tins containing enough for at least five pairs of large boots. As the cost is 1/6. it means you save at least 60/- worth of shoe leather for the outlay of 1/6. Further, IT'S WATERPROOF. Apart from the wonderful money-saving propensities of "SHU-LI. C," it gives you a security against wet feet and all complications arising therefrom—sore throats, colds, etc., etc., etc. You can't put "SHU-LIFE" on your boots and have wet, damp feet too. HOW "SHU-LIFE" WORKS. As suggested above, "SHU-LIFE," when painted on the soles, is absorbed by the leather. The first coat will disappear entirely. The second coat will do the same. When the sole is full of the preparation the last coat will produce a polished, glazed effect on the surface of the sole. Generally three applications in one night will be ample. In cases where the leather is of a very poor quality more might be needed. After that the boots are ready for service, and do not require any further treatment. A remarkable fact about "SHU-LIFE" is that it makes poor leather last as long as the good. S— B_ ___ - - v>\_. '-Ir \ oles WHAT YOU'VE GOT TO DO. Full directions are given Inside each tin of "SHU-LIFE," which is packed -in a neat little box. The directions are simplicity itself. It is particularly requested that they be carried out as shown—to insure satisfaction. ANY OLD BRUSH WILL DO. We have found a child's ordinary paint brush as effective as anything. There are no catche3, very little time required, small outlay of money. Anyone can do It. Every 1/6 you spend on "SHU-LIFE" saves you 60/-, and saves you cold, damp feet, with all the other complications caused through wet feet. WHERE TO GET IT. Any Retail Boot Store, Grocer, Ironmonger, or Chemist can supply you with this wonderful compound. If they do not have it in stock ask them to procure a tin for you. They can procure it from any of their wholesalers anywhere. Sole New Zealand Agents: S r 4LMOND & SPRAGGON LTD. ( 16, Halleilstein's Bldgs., Auckland, and Wellington and Dunedin.
