It’s worth your while to stop a minute and think whether your Jootvvear outlay is being spent to the very best advantage. What is it you pay for —the boots YOU buy or the boots that someone else buys? I ■ ■ It's fair to you and to everyone else that you should pay for just what you get—no more-no less—isn’t it? And there’s only one thing you need to pay for in buying boots-thal’s QUALITY You would, perhaps, be willing to pay for comfort and style, but at a store where the buying is done intelligently—with a practical knowledge of every detail of bootmaking backing it up—comfortable £t and good style cost you no more than bad lit and bad style. So, you need only pay for the quality, but do you know that at a credit boot store you actually have to pay for the losses incurred by the fact that some other people DON’T PAY FOR THEIR boots at all. To the honest mind it seems incredible that any person would buy boots and never pay,for them-but it happens—it happens every day at every credit boot store— and just think of the loss that means. That loss has got to be covered in the prices YOU pay, so thatypu lose that fair business transaction of giving money , simply for quality received in your purchase. At our cash boot store—Stock’s City Boot Palace—you get every advantage of style and fit—you pay only for the quality received—you pay for it just the lowest possible cash price—and if you're not satisfied with the quality for which you pay, your money is refunded to you in full.
